iPhone SE orders UK!

I was hoping there would be plentiful stock of the SG64 by now. Beginning to wish I'd ordered online. Also makes me wish even more that Apple had made a 128GB version, which I would have happily paid the extra for, although maybe that would have been just as difficult to get hold of, who knows?!
Managed to get a 64gb Silver from Edinburgh, happy days, will pick it up tonight or tomorrow lunchtime 
Popped into O2 shop at lunch to have a look at them in the flesh. The Rose Gold, while not for me, looked very nice. Couldn't comment on any other colours as they had no stock
Guy said they were getting them in tomorrow, and could hold a Silver one back. Tempted.
Although, what do I do with the 2x SG models coming next week...heh

While I think the silver/white is the best colour of iPhone, my last 3 have been this colour, I would say 100% get the colour you want, even if it means waiting. You will likely have the phone a minimum of a year (maybe longer), that's a long time to have a phone in a colour you regret, for the sake of waiting a week or two now.
It appears to be a lottery. Which, given your name, is quite apt.
Just check in the morning via the website is my best advice. i.e Put the phone you want in your basket on the Apple website, take it to checkout then check stock in your nearest stores.
Ok thanks.
What I like about in store purchase is the ability to get refunded directly in store (in case you lose at lottery)
Is it the same policy when you buy online and pickup in store?
Well, I got bored and ordered a White/Silver one from O2. Fancied a change in colour, so will see how it goes. Going to hold off cancelling the SG 64GB incoming next week, just in case I hate it. Which I doubt....it's just a phone after all.
Any more people got an SE from John Lewis that they have confirmed is truly unlocked?
When I asked a staff member recently they were fairly sure they lock to the first network used, even when I pressed them on the point saying people online had said different... Not that they had any stock anyway.

I have a John Lewis iPhone SE and I have used both Tesco and EE sims in it with no problem.
Good to know, thanks. They should really be clearer about it, both online and in-store.
Glad i preordered the Space grey 64 GB model on the first day!! no one is buying the 16 GB model huh?
Oh they absolutely are. The stores are selling out of all models quickly, including all the 16s.
It's just that there has been hardly any SG64 stock actually being delivered to stores in the last 10 days.
Perhaps it's the most popular online order so a lot of stock is going directly to online orders.
But all models of the SE are selling out. It's a massive success.
Also 2-3 weeks until despatch if you order online, thats a 3-4 week delivery time. Think it must be selling very well as the delivery times are going up rather than down.
John Lewis have 64GB Gold in stock at the mo.
Apple online must really be struggling looking a their dates.
