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

I took advantage of the 2 to 4 week wait for the 128g rg plus. I think it is. If I was gonna wait till November anyway and my husband needs a phone now. So I canceled my order and put the orders in separate so he can get his sooner. And I wait till next month. Hopefully it won't be any longer. The web site says 4 to 6 weeks wait now for the 128g. But I put it In before that change so I'm good I hope.
Anyone notice the 6s+ (not sure about 6s) takes forever to charge? I thought there was some quick charge technology? My Note 3 charged up to say 80% really fast...but then again, it didn't seem to last very long either. Haven't had an iPhone since the 4 so maybe my expectations are off.
Anyone in the Bay Area receive theirs yet? Mines been "out for delivery" since 5 in the morning from the Oakland UPS.. But still nothing
Yes, I received both this morning before 11 am (I'm in the city). 6s+ 128gb SG and 6s RG 64gb. The 6s+ was already in Oakland last night, the 6s came into Oakland early this morning.
And it continues... I now have to mail these old devices in. Not only am I out over an hour standing at the store, I now need to pay for packing materials. Going to give them a call tomorrow when I'm less peeved about the whole thing and see if they can do anything in the form of credits. This is just plain ridiculous.
comical. Literally 2 minutes later, someone tells me something completely different.

Agreed. It looks like a light copper to me. I love the color!Ya, did y'all take the JOD back to store, or gonna mail them? and this SOB is FASSSSST Feels faster than my iPad air 2 to be honest. Touch ID is like wow blazing fast. The RG looks more Salmon and copper tone vs pink. In some lights it does look a little pinkish...no worries to me tho.
I ordered the 64gb RG I really want the 128gb now but they said if I cancel my order I will lose my spot and they can't modify it. Smh whelp hopefully we get our phones soon they are really nice I went to a store and played with one reading all the comments made me want to touch one lol
I had already lost my spot in line cause they messed up my first order. So I went from getting it October 2 to October 16. To early November. So I saw that the 128g was 2 to 4 weeks so I jumped on it. I hope we do get it at the same time. I really want to go play with one too maybe I'll go tomorrow.
Yep! I ordered mine in-store on the evening of 9/18 and it got into Honolulu last night. Picked it up on my lunch break today. The Rose Gold is BEAUTIFUL!!
Couple of things or more:
Phones were left at front door. All in all I appreciate this. They were very tastefully hidden. I got the text messages right away and tried to get to the phones as soon as possible. Phones were fine.
Fingerprint sensor is amazingly fast. Almost spooky. Before I did a quick home button click to wake up the screen and check the time. Now a quick button press mostly gets me into the home screen. It's that fast and accurate. Impressed.
I am trying to setup the phone as new, as I had some trouble with clock syncing after the update to IOS9. Seems the problem is not there with "fresh" installations, so with quite some work I am trying to configure this phone as a new phone. It seems to be syncing, but where the iPhone 6 would sync within a few milliseconds of "true time", the iPhone 6s for now seems intent of syncing .05x seconds away from true time. I define true time as the time provided by the Emerald Time app which takes a basket of servers which have very accurate time.
EDIT: I know it is geeky, but before I used to see time being off by as little as .004 or .001. Perhaps the ptp protocol needs time to smooth out things and get a more accurate time. I wouldn't doubt this, ntp usually needed several hours to get things smoothed out.
EDIT2: Time is getting more accurate, now it is +0.044
EDIT3: Getting better, +.038
EDIT4: It kept going to the other side, not good -0.276 Problem seems to still be there with a clean install

As long as is the same SIM card type, you can use the old one.
Haven't seen the other issue you have.
I live in Oakland and UPS told me that it would be about 7 or 8 tonight. So I told them to hold for pickup. The store didn't open until twelve but it was real fast.
I agree...my wife didn't (I didn't either) realize that you had to use that as well. The store told me that I have to mail it back since I didn't get my 6s+ from the store inventory.
I was thinking about going for the 128gb but they were like 2-4 weeks isn't far from November TForce smh I should have cancelled and went with the 128 but that's too much storage I just want some progression. We are waiting no exact time frame or nothing
