Appolicious editors say: "It all depends on what kind of user and consumer you are. As we know from recent history, once Apple releases a new iPhone (and new operating system developed for it) previous models instantly become dated. Developers begin to create apps for the new model and don't always update titles for previous models. The speed, efficiency and general coolness of new iPhones also make waiting for the iPhone 5 very tempting.
However, if you are a more casual consumer who has never experienced owning an iPhone, you will get a lot of value from the iPhone 4 (on both Verizon and AT&T). It may become semi-obsolete beginning in September (or whenever Apple comes out with the next one), but relative to the phone you already own this is a massive improvement."
Should I wait for the iPhone 5 or get the Verizon iPhone 4?
