The iPhone 6S/6S Plus Pre Order thread

Yup, I'd assume they're betting on the fact that nobody will bother suing them over a case that cost 99p. It's good logic I guess to sell them as cheap as possible, rather than having to dispose of it. I mean, it's really underhanded, but from a business point of view a 99p sale is better than 100% loss.
 
This thread will be have to be split up once the pre-orders are done to make it easier to track info by carrier and delivery dates.

Should be fun..love this time of the year :)

What I would REALLY love, if Apple gave us the option to have the colors from the iPod touch refresh. Would love that electric blue. If that was a BTO option, I'd take it!

Their marketing is definitely inconsistent. This is the case that I ordered from their website a few days ago when the 6s cases went on sale. Definitely marked on their site as 6s specific, but labelled as 6s/6 on the item itself. Now, the question is whether they're the same 6 cases that they've determined have enough give to fit the sub millimetre change in size or if they're 6s sized and they've determined a 6 will still fit.

Be interested to see if anyone else has a Neo Hybrid case and if the SKU/EAN is the same.

If it's a soft case, it'd probably fit. If it's a hard case, it might not fit.

Bizarre marketing though.
 
Thought I would join in on this thread, I joined in on a similar one for my iPhone 5S. I only ever get the "S" revisions as I can't justify spending the money every year.

I have logged into my Apple account and updated my Payment Card and Shipping Address.

Disappointed there no longer seems to be an Express Checkout Option on the website or iOS Apps :(

Time to get a Spigen Case I suppose until a wider selection get released!

I'm always sceptical about cases that are released before a phone has released, especially if it is made for an '[-]S' model iPhone. It's more than likely that it's a current case for the iPhone 6, just rebranded as one made for the iPhone 6S. Bear in mind that no company really knows the dimensions of the unreleased iPhone; what they are selling is based purely on speculation. It's just a marketing tactic companies use to get sales in ahead of the competition.

You're most likely right but as I only paid 99p with free delivery I'm not really bothered if that's the case. Hopefully my existing 6 Plus case will fit as I really like it.
 
Small question, are the T-Mobile iPhones bought directly from Apple unlocked, even during preorders?
 
Planning on pre-ordering a 6s.


I actually just switched to ATT, and when I check my eligibility on apple's site for the iPhone 6, it says I'm not eligible. Even though I brought my own device and just have a 15gb family plan and pay the $15 access charge for ATT next.

Anyone know why this is? I have a feeling it might be because of the ATT next and not the 2 year contracts.

ATT doesn't offer "upgrades" anymore to new customers, only existing customers who were around when 2 yr contracts were still for everyone. I think all you can do is ATT Next financing which isn't really "upgrading" in the sense they are not giving you a discount. I would Call customer Service ASAP though as I`m sure they will be slammed after tomorrow with people asking if they can upgrade.

I'm having this same problem. I got a new account a month ago and AT&T is saying I must have 5 months and 1 day tenure with their company before I am eligible for an upgrade, even though I was on a previous account for several years and my phone is unlocked.

Haha, never realised you only paid 99p for it. In that case, we'll leave it there :D
