5c is so expensive? I thought it was now free.

I see "rape" as a criminal act.

As such I live in a country where the thought of paying more than 7.5€ per months for all the calls, mms and sms I want (for the same network) + 200 mb of data per month is just obscene.

So I pay full price/buy products on carriers. The iPhone 5c costs 399€. That's outrageous! Even if it wasn't unlocked, it will sell for more than 330€.

Define poor.

Even If I had all the money in the world I wouldn't buy a 6plus unless my work/personal live demanded such gadget greatness.

I'm a student and I have my priorities, as everybody on their right mind should. with 750€ (for the 6+), I would buy the 5c and go a few days to some nice place, with my girlfriend ;)
 
I'll definitely go with the iPhone 6 plus, 128gb in gold.
With all my travelling overseas, extra battery power will come in handy and the extra space for apps and music would be much appreciated.

I'm hoping the battery power at is a vast improvement over the average 5 hours I get with my 4S

Yes, the decision whether to go for the Plus is a tricky one! About the saddest thing I've ever done in my life with regards to tech, but this morning I rode into work with this in my pocket to get a 'feel' for life with a phablet :eek:

Using your model as an inspiration, I built a LEGO model that is almost exact to the mm.

Sorry, if this has been previously asked, but I am upgrading using a different line within my same account. In the past, I haven't had an issue with switch the new phone over to my line. Anyone know what the process would be for this and if I would have any issues? Before I had to take the phones to the AT&T store but that was because it was a reg SIM switching to a micro SIM, but I believe both use a Mico-SIM now... Thanks for the input!

Great idea! I lean towards the Plus, and have made a mockup that displays life-size on iPad, but here I am sitting next to a bin of Legos and never thought of approximating the pocket feel that way.
 
How do you order a contract free phone? When I do a mock order, all I see is carrier choices. And if I select my carrier I see 2yr or Next plan. I would do Next plan and pay off the phone the same day, but if I can get a contract free that's better.
 
Ok, so I've spoken with both Apple (4 different people) and T-Mobile.

For us that are not from US, can't order any iPhone in US from the sale start (19th) because it will be locked to T-Mobile and you have to wait 40 days with an activated and sim card.

Only thing we can do is wait and hope that they will release already after the release an un-locked version.

How do you know that?

It's contract less but you can't unlock it. So it's without any contract but you have to use it with T-mobile for at least 40 days until you can un-lock it.

I'm a student living out of state and am still on my parents Verizon plan. Do they have to order for me, or can I order it myself?

I think you need to enter the last four of the primary account holder's social, but besides that you can pretty much do it on your own.

Buy the T-Mobile version, with no contract. That is unlocked.

You will just toss the T-mobile SIM, and put in the SIM of your choice. Keep in mind that if you have an iPhone 4S or earlier, it's a different SIM and you will have to get another one.

T-Mobile version doesn't work with CDMA still right? i.e. VZ and Sprint

btw, why do they still include Earpods? people actually use these nonsense?? Should've just put some Beats in the 128GB version or something.....

I really wish Apple would start allowing the preorder of unlocked phones.
Click to expand...

Yeah it's strange Apple won't sell unlocked iPhones from day one in the US like they do here in Australia (and presumably other countries). I guess it's all about the deals they have with US carriers.
 
good luck to all those who are hoping to get their mitts on an iPhone!!

Im from the uk so guess it'll be the usual refresh, crash, refresh, add to basket, crash, refresh, checkout....

Really hoping to get one! if not ill have to queue up i guess



hopefully i won't get overcharged this time like the lip hone 4 pre order! i got charged £10,000,00 for an apple bumper!!!! never cancelled an order so quick lol :apple::apple:

8am is a horrid time for me as i start work then so will have to nip to the toilet and try and get it sorted

7pm I suppose

Id suggest if midnight has come and gone for Aussies then it'll be a universal 0001 launch.

Why would they delay some markets and not others. Im sure from memory all uk pre orders have been at 8am
 
Yeah, i'm avoiding this cluster ***** this year. I'll just go to a small ATT store the morning of release and get one like I've done a few times before.
 
Oh i didn't know, that the 12:01 AM Pacific time was meant World Wide. Ok thank you very much ! I know when to set my alarm now !
