Do you really need a new smarthone, i mean you have an Iphone 4, so upgrading to a new model wouldn't give you too much new stuff for a huge amount of money.
You can get the Vita now for cheap and it gives you a total new environment. Or maybe you just wait for E3, i'm pretty sure they announce a pricecut then.

Edit: sorry, i haven't read that your phone is broken. Go for a Galaxy S4 or S5, maybe you even think about the new Sony Smartphone - and a Vita after its pricecut!

must-have-list for platforms i don't own yet:

WiiU: Donkey Kong

XBone: Dead Rising 3, Ryse

What's not ok with the 4? Does the 5 do more? Will the 5s do even more?
And if we are talking games, will they have buttons? If no, then I guess they are as good as your current iPhone4 for that.

I know you don't want android but I am surprise you had such a bad experience with the samsung s3 ( i think you said it was a s3). They are generally very good. I never experienced any problem with mine unlike the HTC that I had before.

The xperia z is selling like hot cakes right now ( unofficial reports put it at 4.6m in a little over a month) but I am waiting for it to be on the market for a while longer to get proper feedback.

Being pragmatic you already have a working phone, you don't have a vita.

Buy the vita and have both.

I think I will get the Vita guys... I will wait for change my smartphone and use it with the broken screen (it is not too bad... I just hate to look to the broken part).

I will try to find a nice deal and get SS together.

If you wait for the iPhone 5S you may be waiting for a while, I thought Apple has always launched their phones in the fall. Why do you think it might launch in July?

I have an iPhone 5 and I love it. Its my first smartphone and its great.

Because Apple itself said they are trying to change the release date of iPhones from September to July.

lol well that sounds like a pretty reasonable source.

In that case....hmmm...2 months is still a long time. If its just your broken screen and it will work for atleast 2 more months I say wait. Then at that point you can decide between the 5 and 5S.

Yeap I decided to wait because even if I choose the 5 I think after the 5S launch the price will drop here... today with the price of iPhone 5 I can buy two Vitas and some games.
