iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

Does anyone know if I will be able to order 1 on the iPhone upgrade plan, and 1 buying outright in the same order, or will I need to do 2 seperate orders?

Appreciate this is the first time the IUP has been available in the UK so its a bit up in the air.......

Anyone else getting Apple Care Plus?

AppleCare now has a £25 excess for screens and £79 for all other damage. That appears to include if you need a replacement phone. The non-AppleCare prices are now £146 for a screen and £306 for a replacement phone. So well worth having it now, just incase of 1 accident as so expensive to replace phone these days.

Good to know all the numbers, thank you. I will wait and see for a bit - I usually get phone insurance paid for via Endsleigh by my family.

MacBook open to the Apple website. iPhone and iPad open to the Apple Store app, products favourited. 19 minutes left!

In some hands on video footage I already saw some scratches on the jet black, or atleast oil off fingers that make it appear to be scratches. There is now at the jet black is going to stay looking good, yet it will be a big seller because it's the new colour.

Also, the only good way to refresh the App Store would be to close it and re-open it.

Well because of that, I can bet my house that the jet black will also be the phone with the most returns/swaps within the 14 day period.

Not that I ever use it but does anyone else think it's a total joke that the carriers don't release any info at all until the last minute?

The cynic in me says it's because they want people to panic buy and sign up to whatever rip off contracts they offer.

The realist says that they've probably found out the pricing on Wednesday evening to prevent leaks so perhaps they need time to prepare the tariffs.

As I have a friend who works at a senior level in EE marketing, I can tell you the panic buying aspect is a major driver.

I always get it but I normally queue up at the Apple Store on the release date to get a phone but I'm on holiday this year so I have decided to pre-order the iPhone and Apple Watch online and Pick up instore and I will get the Apple Care from there

Just so you know, AppleCare is mandatory if you want to swap the phone after 12 months.

However because of the Apple upgrade Programme now being available for the UK , one would have thought it be in he networks interest to reveal their hand much earlier

Morning all! Ahhh it seems like only yesterday that i was sat on my hotel balcony desperately hoping the dodgy wifi that only seemed to work in one spot didn't drop out so I could order my 6S. And here were are again, although this time the slightly less glamorous location of my living room.

My plan is to Order the New iPhone in Black 128GB and then get an Apple Watch Space Grey, (Not sure of the band yet) then get in the car and go to work thinking about next Friday :p
