they really are taking the biscuit leaving it this late


Three know people will wait to see theirs at midday. If they are bad prices, all the other networks will be sold out for launch, so people will just go with them. Not going to have much time to compare threes plans by the time they are live, just got to
Order quickly. :(

Midday?!?! Really. FFS.

Thinking about moving to O2 but wanted to check pricing etc first...
 
Are you ordering a case with your iPhone? If so, which one?

I usually like red. Although I take very good care of my stuff, the Product Red cases always come out looking like crap after a few weeks. Here's my 5S case:

Sure it looked nice when new but I won't be going red this time. Maybe midnight blue leather won't look so bedraggled so quickly.

What do you think?

I went through 2 red apple leather cases.... now have the black one. Will probably get the black leather one for my silver 6 plus, but the bottom is now exposed in the new apple cases which really annoys me.

Haha I'm actually pleased that the bottom is exposed. No more having to take the phone out the case to connect to dock and the car. The blinking leather cases for the 5S wouldn't even support the 30pin to lightening adapter

I usually get the leather case but it's slightly bigger than silicon cases. Given that I want the 6+ I want to reduce adding more bulk to it
 
Oh well, no matter how many times I hit refresh they won't let me pre-order! Looks like 8am, they'd better not end up going live in the early hours :roll eyes: see you all in a bit!
 
If you can afford it I'd say the 64, not that much more in the grand scheme of things...

Was thinking along those lines especially given that I upgrade/recycle annually.

I was quite keen on the idea of picking up a iPad mini before the 6+ was made official. I hardly use my phone to make calls, mainly web browsing and apps.. the extra real-estate will come in handy for me.

I travel a fair bit for work and watching shows on the 5S screen for a long period was getting tedious

Same here, I text more than call - I travel for about two hours a day to work so load my 16GB 5S with movies and TV shows, the extra screen real estate would be a plus!

I'll be selling my iPad mini as it'd become redundant for me personally.

Me too. I dislike the open bottom section. After all, I want a case to protect the phone and it seems unnecessary to neglect the bottom front of the phone.

I may just get some back protector film and go for a thin bumper of some description. Which leads me to another thought... if the screen is curved at the edges, isn't that going to cause havoc with screen protectors?

I didn't know that the silicon cases were smaller. If that's the case (pardon the pun), I'd go for a silicon case if I were getting the 6+. I'm going to go for the 6, in 64GB flavour. Probably silver. With a midnight blue leather case.

The film type probably. The newer 'glass' ones that are being touted might be ok.
 
Im kinda glad Apple dropped the 32gb, 64gb will be the biggest iOS device I've had, and with the better camera and bigger screen I can see me needing the extra storage for all the movies and pictures! (not to mention all the Metal games ;) )
 
Doesn't the store normally I down before the pre-orders go up?

Also UK apple online store chat is now closed until 8am so all points to 8am pre-order does it?

I'm checking periodically through night in case though!
 
Is anyone ordering one of the apple cases with the iPhone?
I really want to get the brown leather case but read on the FAQ that this may lead to a delay in receiving the device?
Is that likely?

I was hoping that they'd drop the 16GB, making 32, 64 and 128 the choices. Maybe they have a lot of 16GB components to get rid of but in this day and age, 16GB is rather limited.

I keep running out of space all the time to the point where I've uninstalled all but the 'essential' apps and even they use up a ton of space.
