UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

[My Name is URL]

Exactly the same as mine, same phone too! 😀

Not sure, that's what I was wondering, I think you were the only other person I've seen on this thread with the C3 Factory..

What time did you order?

My 64GB iPhone 6 silver was in the C3 factory too.

iPhone 6 64GB Space Grey

Production year: 2014
Production week: 33 (August)
Factory: C3 (China)

Which factory is the C3?

No idea- mine was made there too (week 36, Sept). The only clue I have is that it's China.

 

[Segun]

I ordered at 8:50am uk time. This was on pre-order day from the apple site.

I think the C3 factory was used for iPhone 6 and F2 for iP6+

I know its not quite what your after, but as of 2 minutes ago The Oracle store had all the of colours of iPhone 6 in 128GB available for collection on Friday.

I would love the 128GB model, but I cannot justify the expense. Even 64GB is more than I need, but 16GB is too little. Was hoping for a 32GB entry model, which I understand why they do not offer, but it would have been enough for me. Thanks for the link though even though it wasn't exactly what I hoped for in terms of stock status. :S

Don't understand what the fuss is about wanting 32GB, you're getting 64GB for the price of 32GB and it's £10 less. (iPhone 6)

😕

Thursday delivery? hmm cross fingers?

No chance, Apple will leave them in the courier warehouses an extra day rather than deliver early. Release aay is Friday, and Apple won't allow early delivery.

The 64GB is the new 32GB, I don't know what people don't get this. Just pretend the 64GB is just 32GB and don't use the extra 32GB 🙄.

You have no chance of cherry picking a capacity or colour for next Friday now.

You have 2 choices, join the queue outside your nearest Apple Store around 3am or order online for delivery whenever that might now be.

But if they had a 32GB model then it *should* be even less. If 32GB is the capacity that suits your needs then wanting that option at a lower cost makes perfect sense!

I said I was hoping for a 32GB entry model. There is no fuss, I said I'll get the 64GB version, which I will.

I think it's something like:

Fx= Zhengzhou
Dx= Chengdu
Cx= Shenzhen

May also be nothing like that though 🙂

No problem, Bath and Cambridge seem to have 64GB 6's still available, don't know if that is too far 🙂 Good luck

I know, just wishful thinking 🙂

You will NEVER see me queue outside an Apple Store in order to buy a mobile phone, especially since the closest one to me is a journey away. In the worst case I will have to wait for a few weeks.

Thanks! Bath might actually be doable. Cambridge is too far. I am in Oxford, which apparently is surrounded by towns with Apple Stores despite being a prime Apple market itself. Our local Apple retailer here is a joke and, of course, doesn't carry the iPhone.

 

[AVBeatMan]

I know I sound skeptical but is thus guaranteed?

 

[Tim7]

I am thinking of ending my current SIM only deal with EE and going for the Three SIM only deal with 600 mins, unlimited texts and unlimited 4G data plus tethering... Do you think it would be possible to get it all done and my number ported over to Three by Friday ready for the iPhone 6?

Your Welcome.

Can someone remind me what time of the day the stock refresh happens for Apple Store reservations please? It's been 2 years...!

Still on the fence about upgrading, so I want to get in the store to take a look at the 6+.

Yes, as long as you arrive in your hour window.

I don't think there is a refresh yet. It looks like there was an allocation for each shop for next Friday and that is it.

Perhaps after launch the system will go to a daily system (which refreshed around midnight for the 5 IIRC).

 

[Aeleks]

hey guys,

phoned P4U and couldn't get through, so i spoke to an employee over chat and gave my details etc..and they confirmed my 64gb space grey iPhone 6+ will be ready for collection on the 19th from the store i ordered it from 😀

Was this SIM free or on contract?

No, it's the trainees in C3 😛

Thanks - sorry I did mean after launch date. I've got to see how this is in my little hands first - I did the cut outs but I'd still like to have a look.
