Most UK apple stores have stock this am and, possibly for the first time, it appears to be hanging around a bit.

Ha, same. Had them in December but returned them as don't stay secure in my ears, particularly the left. Now thinking someone is going to come up with a skin that will also fit the case so you don't need to remove to charge.Just gone out of stock at Solihull/Birmingham. Lasted nearly two hrs!
Can't believe I'm looking again when already returned a pair in January. I'm curious that I never gave them long enough to test, the left ear seemed to slip out and put me off. I am thinking of trying again with skins or foam covers. I was going to get beatsx but that cable looks so damn long!
That's unfortunate. I was slightly concerned about that but they fit nicely for me and are pretty comfortable.Managed to do a store pick up from Apple Southampton this morning. Technically they are a fantastic product but unfortunately they are not suited to my ear shape and keep slipping out so I will be reluctantly returning and purchasing a set of Powerbeats 3.
That's unfortunate. I was slightly concerned about that but they fit nicely for me and are pretty comfortable.
Very pleased with them - exceeded my expectations in most respects and crucially in sound quality. I was more concerned about that than fit but they sound great to my non-audiophile ears.
Overall a delightful product in set up and use. Looking forward to trying them at the gym tomorrow.
Carphone warehouse seems to have some stocks showing delivery by 10/3/17. Quick!

I think only Apple will allow you to return them. They don't care. I returned a pair of urbeats to Apple a few years ago as they kept falling out of my ears. They were perfectly fine about it. No questions asked.but what if you decide to return them? (due to poor fit for example)..many people return them for this reason yet on Carphone warehouse faq they say headphones cannot be returned due to hygiene reason.

debating getting some of these....however on apple it says 6 weeks, will I actually have to wait that long? Probably better off using istocknow and refreshing? what sort of time do argos get their deliveries and update their stock?
cheers
Yes definitely use istocknow - and set up email alert. I had a pair the day after deciding I wanted them. I got lucky but wouldn't have had them without the email alert.
thanks, is there a way to set up email alert for individual stores?
Yes I'm sure there was.
All my local Argos stores have stock right now, by the way in case you've not checked recently.
Ok, I've just had a look. First log in. Then focus the map over your area and click notify. The side bar will open with all the stores in that map view and allow you to select the ones you want. Then click save. As you move the map around it adds/removes stores from the side bar - pretty cool.thanks . do you just click on the specific store so it shows on the left hand side and then click notify me at the top?
