iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

Don't know why more people aren't selling privately. iPhones are one of the easiest things to sell for example in work or on facebook. Just sold my 6 16GB for £230

I've tried. No one is interested. Plus I'm self employed so I can't really sell it to myself.

edit: Sorry now caught up with the last few pages and see that you can't actually checkout the moment.

This is very positive news for those of us waiting for reservations still. My brother's 7 Plus order got upgraded from 27-29 to Tuesday (21-22). It sounds like they've brought a lot more 7 Plus stock into the country much sooner than expected meaning there should be a decent amount of reservation stock around. Or at least, that's what I'm telling myself.

Very exciting!

Has anyone's order for a 7+ jet black order with a delivery of 4th-10th October been bumped forward yet or have we just got to wait until then 🙁

in the same boat and not that I've seen.. there is hope given some of the movements seen today that orders in the 4-10th timeframe may move.. hazard a guess at next week

Exactly what @Lunfai said. The screen size is awesome, but I'm always on the go and one of the biggest grievances for me was one handed typing. I'm right handed and reaching the 'a' key was always a stretch. I have developed a pretty good technique for this after two years, but I'm just one slip away from dropping the thing. Plus I'm already on my second phone from bendgate... and it's bent again XD

Also... pockets.

would you say you have big hands? I've used my dads and seem to get on ok with it, but i will have to see... if i can ever order one that is

Has anyone's iphone 7 plus status changed to preparing to dispatch yet? Everyone's getting an earlier delivery 🙂

I'm 6'6" and have fairly big hands and it's still an issue for me. I'm getting the 7. That said, I know plenty of folks who don't have an issue with and just type with two hands!

Re: Very.co.uk

This will make you all laugh ...

Looking at all the old posts, the following people had orders but have now cancelled due to the dates being pushed back:

stanleyboy - cancelled (order moved to 05/11) - [JB 7+ 128gb]
ukkey - cancelled (order moved to 05/11) - [?]
DrBlueBox - cancelled [?]
RazorD - cancelled - [JB 7+ ?]
Helen2016 - cancelled [?]

For me, I have the following still on order and have not had an email or text confirming that my order has been pushed back.

I have got two Royal Mail Tracking numbers which are valid and their website confirms that my delivery is still Sat 17th Sept:

2 x Black 7+ 256gb

Both Royal Mail tracking numbers state:

Status:
Please come back later

The system is currently unable to confirm the status of your item with reference BHXXXXXXXXXGB. Please try again later.

Special Delivery Guaranteed™ items are first tracked when they have reached our mail centre. This may be late in the evening on the day the item was sent.

Information on your Special Delivery Guaranteed™ item is not yet available.

Who would like like to make a £5 charity donation bet (of their choice + screenshot proof of payment required) that they don't turn up? 🙂

That message from Royal Mail is what I have had the last few times they were delivering something for me recently. I think you might actually have them delivered fine.

Side note - where and when did the tracking numbers appear on Very's site? Was it just on the track my order button? Mine just says
"Order Placed Delivery by Saturday 17 September (Delivery date checked on 14/09/2016)."

When I click on track parcel I see this:
"Order being processed at supplier
12 September, 2016
12:40:30"

Would this work with model added? Page loads to the check back Sat page so I'm guessing so...

https://reserve.cdn-apple.com/GB/en_GB/reserve/iPhone/availability?channel=1&iPP=E&partNumber=MN4M2B/A - you need to urlencode anything in a parameter to stop it being treated as part of the URL, so / becomes %2F in a model part number

Edit: Missed a part: You need to use "partNumber", not "model"

can never have enough battery! do you have a + and how does it last throughout the day?
Click to expand...
Battery is hugely better on the plus. I went back to regular for the 6s, thought I wanted a smaller screen and the battery was bearable but a bit rubbish. In march realised I HAD to go back to Plus and the battery is amazing!
In real world terms : hubby and I pokémon Go for an hour - his phone (6s) down to 67% - mine (6s plus) still on 87% 🙂

I contacted them on a webchat and request them, they didn't mind handing them over...
