UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

Thought I'd give u guys a little insight to my new tech friend. 24 hours later after receiving my iPhone 6 plus and the battery is still going strong.....I got it at 6pm yesterday, was at 80% charge....charged it up whilst restoring from iCloud backup.....and then at around 7pm it was 100%

It's now 8.45pm the next day and I've used it for around 4 hours (mostly intensive gaming and Facebook and browsing, I've been at work and use ipad a lot at home).....standby for 23 hours........and it's still on 61%.....I'm amazed as I haven't even properly charged it from a low figure yet......my iPhone 5 with similar usage would have definitely needed charging by now......when it was brand new i would have charged it once a day at least......but this phone is still going and I reckon it could last till tomorrow night easy......I was just hoping for 36 hours and that would have been amazing, but I reckon I could get 2 full days out of it.......well chuffed.

There's no getting away from it, as a phone it is massive......a monster. But actually the more I use it the more im getting used to it......and then looking at my wife's iphone 5 I couldn't believe how small it looked, was I really using that for 2 years??

It's a beautiful monster I would say now.....but it's easy to hold and it fits in all my pockets with plenty of room to spare (I've always had pretty deep pockets anyway cos hate small ones!). Doesn't feel awkward in pocket when sitting down either, although at home I always prefer it next to me on the couch and at work on my desk so it's only really when driving that it matters, and it feels fine.

The screen is amazing, an absolutely beautiful screen, the colours and quality just looks like it's leaping out at you. Speed wise it handles everything I want with ease.

I couldn't be happier and I hope the battery stays this good for as long as possible, because it was the main reason I went for the larger size.

You guys won't regret it.

Lol you know what it's fine. Dont worry about getting me one. If you do get one then I would transfer the money before you post it. It's only fair I pay you for the device and you can send it. But get yours first and if you can dry mine bit don't worry if you can't. I'll survive # sound fair?

thanks for that i had a 5s but got an lg g2 for work as i don't care if it gets damaged and at first was thinking dam this is big but i got used to it and didn't look at the 5s in the same way after

it upsets me a bit that people who were lucky to get the 6+ have dismissed the size only after a couple of days, I say to them give it a week and if you don't get used to it then fair enough but i couldn't tell after a few days it does take a bit of getting used to but once you do you will never go back :D
 
Could anyone please help me with the store reservation business?

What page should I be able to select a store (if/once its available)?

Also what time is best to check/refresh or is it fairly random

/noob

Picked up my 64gb 6+ SG this evening from regent street - the queue was massive and it took an hour to get through the reservations queue... Happy it's home now though. Totally worth the wait. Good luck to everyone trying to reserve tonight :)

I'm sure if we take some 6's, we can find someone to swap a few 6's for one 6+ :D Ignore Zetti, she doesn't like the + :D

Yep, I've rang is a few times....:roll eyes: Still nothing. I only ordered Sunday 21st though :)

I rang off my own phone that is on O2 and is not the contact number I used for EE. It should still work when I finally input my number in though, correct?
Click to expand...

Yeh it should definitely work if you put in the EE phone number! They might assign the delivery to your current mobile number though incase DPD need to speak to you. Don't worry I'm sure you will get it soon!
