I pre ordered a black 7 plus 128gb with carphone warehouse on an EE upgrade on launch morning by phone. They told me I wouldn't receive any confirmation email as I didn't do it online. They said I would receive a text when it ships
Don't forget if you use wifi calling and then upgrade via CPW then you won't be able to use it anymore. There's a few features that are only available on contracts direct from EE

Well, they are never going to be industry leading in the sound quality department due to their open design. There is just no way to get decent bass when you don't have a seal. They also let a lot of sound in which take away from any detail. I will hold off judement until I get to try them, but I'm not holding out much hope.

Exactly what I thought - for casual/low fi use only IMHO
 
bought one 128 and one 256 both plus jetblack on two separated orders 8:06 and :08 received emails.
both on 26-03 oct... Guess this is the earliest shipment for the jetblack...
 
Nope it wont.. This is apple :p = = you know what they do haha

Aren't the dimensions exactly the same?

Are you sure? My current 6+ is on EE bought through the CPW and it has the wifi calling feature (unless they've restricted it since).

Any idea if this applies to Vodafone as well?

I've got WiFi Calling turned on on my iPhone 6S but it doesn't work - never says WiFi at the top left. Only reason I can think of is that I'm on a sim only plan and I purchased the phone directly from Apple.

I'm on a Vodafone contract from mobiles.co.uk (A CPW company) and wifi calling works. This was a new contract taken out last November.
 
Ordered through EE earlier (late to the party) and as soon as I ordered I got an email saying they needed me to call to confirm some details.

So I called (20 mins on hold) and the bloke on the phone said that the 'digital team' was just ringing out (when he put me on hold again to call them) and there was an automated message saying they will call me.
I asked when, he said he couldn't tell me that.

So i asked him is my order complete as I needed to know if the order was confirmed, he said he didn't know.

I asked what his purpose actually was seeing as I called the number I was asked to call, he just said he was responsible for broadband. I laughed and asked what the purpose of me going through to 'new connection orders' was just to come through to him.

He said he didn't know.

Not a good start with EE. I went with them as Vodafone (who I've been with for 7+ years) are the worst company I've ever dealt with and wanted to move elsewhere because of it. But that didn't bode well.
 
Popped into the Apple Store with a friend earlier who was picking up a 6s, asked if once I get my 128GB plus through delivery if I could bring it into store and get it refunded and set up with the upgrade program. He said he didn't see a reason why it couldn't be done, and I might not even have to part with the phone.

Good chance it'll fit as you've suggested since dimensions are still the same. Small chance the position of the front camera, ear piece and proximity sensors may have shifted slightly.

I still grabbed a 6S Plus one just in case and to keep me gong until proper ones are released. Looking at some pictures does the speaker look slightly longer on the 7 Plus?
 
Yes mate, i had one replaced just after Christmas when a genius pointed out that the case is covered by a warranty

Nice! I thought they'd just say wear and tear and tell you politely to buy a new one! This is what put me off the leather cases before. I need to try that!

Don't often hear many complaint about three at the moment.. they've been great for me.. cheap, unlimited data.. saved huge amounts using my data in the States and europe, and get the below speeds in my home!

I can also say Three are amazing, I get ludicrously fast download speeds at home!

But it will block the dual lens camera? I've got four 6S plus cases at home. I haven't even decided which case to get for my 7 plus yet. I kind of want a clear one to show off my rose gold phone but I've only ever used the spigen ones and they tend to discolour over time. It's annoying as they make nice ones for Samsung Galaxy phones that stand up better over time and feel softer. I've also got two pink slip cases that my 6S plus fits into sans case so I could use those if the cases I order in the next few days (once I decided) haven't arrived by the time my phone does on Friday.
 
argos are only sim free will lock to the first sim inserted
also 256gb plus order now to receive within 99 days!

I was talking about screen protector.
