Black vs Jet Black

I'm still undecided, but I'm going to need to make a decision real soon because I'm pre-ordering on Friday.

@0029937 can we get a pool on this thread? I'm curious to see the overall result.

Was looking on the Apple Store app, if I want to purchase it off contract I can just select buy a new iPhone and pay the full price and it should be good to go? It shouldent ask my for account information

yea then i dont see needing anything more than just pre filled infos (address and so on your apple.com website, store account) then your apple pay info like address and valid card with an valid expiry lol) and just put it in your little baggy and give home button a touch watch the magic :cool:

fyi : you can test it by dumping an old 6s plus or regular in baggy and all the way up to the checkout till it ask you to approve it with touch id

well to be honest i would just buy att one but regardless of it any would work since they would be unlocked. now im not sure if they would be coming with an att sim already in it with your number or simless. since i havent bought one off apple and i buy it thru att business and they comes with sim and waived activation fees and so.

and no problem lad :) :apple:;)

Sounds good appreciate it! I'm assuming at full price unlocked it might come with a SIM card in it and just be able to pop my sim in and connect it to iTunes! Which model you getting?

Nice! Matte!

really wanting but resale is not going to there, i think thats is what holding in matte and gold. hence i can rope in 450-550 usd for old 6 plus 64gbs in asian market. Because im heading out of country next month on business trip anyway i can just give it to my local guy and its like straight up cash lol.

So I should be good with the AT&T full price?
 
sahilpatel12 said:

Nice! Tommrow night is going to be fun!
 
I think I'm set on matte black. Even though the Jet Black looks real slick, the scratch potential annoys me. Plus I'm gonna have a case on it anyway.

Even the current iPhone 6+ is water proof. I've seen dozens of videos proving this and I've had water splash all over my iPhone several times in the last year. It's already water proof. Apple just didn't want to advertise it as such yet...until now.

It might've been sometimes splash resistant if you were lucky (even ifixit did a review of the gaskets and seals in the 6/6S and said it was better than previous phones, but certainly not enough to get an official resistance rating), but there's a far cry from that, and the IP67 rating the 7 has.

Was going for Jet Black but after seeing it and how shiny it is - just looks cheap to me. Looks too much like a cheap plastic.

That's how I always felt about the Space Black Apple Watch. I thought the SG sport looked better because polished black is just so uncommon that it looks like cheap plastic to me.

I was really wanting the jet black iPhone, but the more I looked at it, the more it made the phone look like a toy. I'm going with the matte black.
 
I'm still digging the jet black. You might not be able to tell the difference between plastic and anodized aluminum in the pictures but holding it in your hand it will be obvious.
