A relative of mine is going to the USA so i believe it is a good opportunity to get a phone. Unlocked phone prices are same in Pakistan as the USA, though, but im getting a used iphone 5 unlocked for $200.
My budget is 20k, either i buy this from abroad. Or the safer thing to do is buying a Moto X from karachi (all of them come refurbished here)
I want IOS honestly, but the UI of moto x is also attractive enough for me.
Iphone 5 is old, very old 'apple'wise but it may do me good for a year, right?
Should i go for iphone?
All opinions are welcomed

Yes iPhone 5 is old but it works great on iOS 8. Also if you get an iPhone then get a white one because the black one major chipping issues. If you've used android then give iOS a chance this time.

Either get an iPhone 5S at least or don't get an iPhone. iPhone 5 is already showing its age with iOS 8 and it's going to get worse with iOS 9.

It's doing good with IOS 8 tho!!
And since 5c and 5 are practically the same, apple cant make the iphone 5 obsolete just like thatt (i think)

I can go for the iphone 5c too. I dont game heavy, i just need a lag free device.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
