Default iPhone 5 sim question

Quick question as I can find an answer on the vodaphone website.

Do they have a different SIM card to a 4s and to get the SIM card would I have to change mt contact to one of there £35 per month tarrifs?

I am looking at getting a 5 sim free... But my contact is on vodaphone.


Cheers

Many thanks Ant.
I've already got a contract. I just want sure they would let me have a new sim on an old contract.

I can't believe a 4s is still mid £400's when a 5 can be bought for £520 from the iStore.
Worried about all the talk about delicate screens on the 5 that are breaking.

This is true. I currently have a 4 and its a good couple of years and still looks like new.
I've just heard the 5 is prone to breakage.

It won't be reduced by much if anything if the last one day sale was anything to go by.

Just dont drop it lol. Mine has been fine. Only part to take care of is the polished edges.

Have you not seen the ip5 vs galaxy drop test? Pretty damn impressive resistance to screen cracking even from height onto concrete. Still wouldnt advise it though
