Anyone recommend some good in ear headphones? I just can't get the Apple EarPods to stay in my ears.
 
Cheaper in the long run, usually get it on contract but not this time.

If its on finance I assume you pay a bit extra for the loan.

No, it's interest free. The price includes AppleCare plus which is included.
 
The Apple leather case is perfect. I always go back to it. This year it's been improved. Expensive but in my opinion worth it.

I've looked at these, and my understanding is that the bottom of the case is left open in order to allow the handset to be used with a Lightning Dock.

The cases undoubtedly look nice, but if you don't actually use one of these docks, I feel they unnecessarily leave a large area of the handest unprotected.

Yeah, I know what you mean but there is a slight lip so the phone won't touch at the bottom. The bit that curves around the bottom of the phone does provide protection.
 
I don't see why not-just keep refreshing the http://www.istocknow.com/live/ stock checker and when you see a sea of green like last night, go for it!
I got a 256GB 7 plus black from Metro Centre today from last night's 10:00 stockfest. :)

I noticed it last night and raced to bag myself a 128gb black + , but half way through realised I had the wrong payment method and by the time I got to the payment again the phone were gone. Hope I have better luck tonight.

Currently in Edinburgh waiting to pick up my order. Store v busy. Slots was 5:45-6pm but still waiting. Not complaining as probably about to annoy with returns and exchanges of iPhone and cases!

There is no charge for credit but you do have to pay for Apple care - unless you ask them for IPHONE PAYMENTS. No auto upgrade at 12m on that though, just an interest free 20 month loan

But nothing to stop you settling loan early if you sell the phone yourself after one year or selling the Phone and keeping the loan going (I don't think)

Good luck!
 
And the speaker and microphone

Yup, exactly my thoughts.

Still leaves the majority of the bottom of the handset open though. If you stuck your phone in your pocket with keys or coins accidentally, sods law says that's where it's gonna get damaged. :p

Waiting in the Kingston store to pickup our order from last night.

Seems a bit of a backlog of people at the moment!

Nothing ever goes in the same pocket as my phone.

Keys in hand, wallet in one, phone in another or in the crotch pocket (never done this before...)

Oh totally! My front left pocket is my "phone pocket". Nothing ever goes in there apart from my phone. And even at that, my phone is in a case, has a screen protector, and I also tend to keep it in a sock sock/sleeve most of the time.

Honestly, I'm not OCD..........
