    It's unlikely to get any update to the next operating system ie IOS 7.

    It should be good for a while though if it's on at least IOS 5 as there is still good support for apps at IOS 4.3 I think.

    3GS is is a few years old now and the performance will not be great.

    My wife has one and it struggles with IOS 5. In my opinion a better option would be budget android phone.
