T-Mobile: iPhone 6S/6S Plus Pre-Order Thread:

[c12mcdonald]

Thanks! Guess they haven't gotten around to mine yet.

They will soon enough! I got teased this morning, got a text that my phone was ready to be picked up at about 6:15 PST. They didn't open until 8:30 so now I have to wait until my lunch break to go pick it up

Well that was a direct quote from Spigen and I compared the empty cases and the clear thin fit is slightly larger and deeper. Don't forget, the 6S+ is also 0.1mm taller and 0.01mm wider than the 6+, and 0.2mm thicker.

As far as weight goes, it's 20 grams heavier which is the exact weight of 4 nickels.

First hand experience here. I've always used Tech 21 cases.

I can confirm that existing iPhone 6/6+ Tech 21 cases will fit just fine. But they are noticeably more snug and slightly harder to put on and off.

I left a note on my door letting the UPS driver know that I was home for delivery. I always do this in case it needs a signature...it may help prevent the old "put a slip on the door and run" routine that happened a few years ago. I also mentioned on the note that I have a cold drink for him as a thank you.

My note says the same thing except it tells the ups man I'm in the shower️

Anyone who redirected their delivery to a ups store receive your package.

I'm assuming it's either going to be the end of the day or next business day.

A little afternoon delight, eh?

 

[jgthornton]

Phone still not delivered Estimate is
1:30 P.M. - 5:30 P.M. Hopefully, by time I'm out of class and back home at 2:30 it'll be there.

Good call, but man, I am too afraid to do anything that will prevent me from getting to the door quickly!

I'm not a fan of things shipped in bags, but I'm glad to hear your iPhone showed up in good condition. My fingers are crossed that mine arrives ding-free too!

That's terrible. Sprint always ships them in boxes even if they slide around loose with only 1 air bubble. Apple ships in boxes to form fit so they don't move, like the iPads. No excuse for bags but I think I remember T-mobster doing that last year, too. The funny thing is their reps told me on the phone they would be shipped in double lined boxes with no movement. Lied to again apparently. I'll find out soon enough.

So dope. I felt bad though, she was in such a hurry.

 

[MikesGravity]

Mine are waiting at home... now to get out of work

 

[MikesGravity]

For those of you with current T-Mobile iPhone 6's, did you just use your existing SIM or is there a new one in the 6s? How do you activate the new one if so?

Did you have to pre sign, or did they leave without a signature? I couldnt find signature required anywhere in my shipment.

It comes with a SIM but it's not activated. I just put in my SIM card from my 6+ and it's working perfectly.

Oh and they do NOT come with a SIM tool. So grab a safety pin or something else if you don't have one.

It came with a new sim, I popped it out and put my old sim in. Done.

So it's no need to keep the new SIM?

 

[vikingjunior]

No more Android!

 

[mzsigler]

Yeah, a paperclip works to get the sim tray open.

Anyone else moving over from another carrier or have moved to T-Mo from another carrier in the past? Any recommendations on best way to get numbers ported over, etc?

Lucky you! Waiting for mines. Can't wait to get rid of my s6.

just call them, very easy and smooth

 

[hp200lx]

I received the same update! Hopefully we will get our phones next week.

I ran over to the apple store and tmobile on my lunch. NO RG in store available at Apple no 6+ at all at Tmo.

 

[dbrisk]

I looked at those, but not sure how I feel about them. They totally take away from the color iPhone selected? What's the point of getting RG or SG if you cover it up?

Happy.
