I'll be getting a new iPhone 5s in October, when my Verizon contract is up for renewal. I'm trying to decide between the 16gb and 32gb.
My iPhone 4s was my first real smartphone - I had a Palm Centro before that, which was *kinda* a smartphone but not really. My 4s has 16gb. According to iTunes, I have 2.38gb free on it. It looks as if most of the space is used up on apps, even though I don't have that many.

Price on the 16gb is $199, the 32gb is $299. Verizon is offering a $200 incentive for me to give them my 4s, so the new phone could be free or $99.
But I might not want to trade in the 4s, instead keeping it as backup.
Either way, how do I know which I should buy - the 16gb or 32gb? This Forbes article says I should buy as much as I can afford.

Your advice please? Thx.
