Picked up my blue silicon case today ready for when my 6 arrives, had a play with the 6 and 6+ at the Apple store, both beautiful devices, the + is far too big for me so glad I ordered the 6.
Now waiting for the text to say it's on the way
Adam.
I love the Silicone Cases more than the Leather. Did you see the green one? I want to know if the color is exactly like the pictures or not.
Managed to get a reservation for an 6+ 64GB Space Grey from Covent Garden this evening. Due to pick up between 6pm and 7pm. Has anyone else picked up during this time? Just wondering how long I'm going to have to queue...
No the Apple Store in Birmingham Bullring didn't have the green, well I didn't see it, I seen the red, black and blue only.
Adam.
Did you specifically confirm that mobile devices are covered? They sometimes aren't. You should also ask what the excess is, you may find that it's a lot higher than a repair from Apple, or AC+/excess.
Apparently they do, because I've just walked into Liverpool ONE store and walked out with a black 6 64GB! Woohoo
Then it's changed since two days ago; whilst I was queuing for my 6+ in Leeds I asked the question & I was told that it was still strictly by reservation only. I can confirm that a number of customers turning up hoping to purchase, were turned away disappointed & told they had to reserve on line.
No haha. That it could come whilst I'm out?

Mine dispatched in China about 6pm our time yesterday but couldn't track until 7am today so could be here Friday?
Quite possibly. I don't think they will be delivering on Saturday this week. I would say if not Friday then definitely Monday.
Even the media are now reporting on the iPhone 6 bending issue, i have just seen on TV here in the UK, a BBC One news report on it. I didn't know it was that much of an issue. i Wonder if it will put people off from buying, those who are yet to buy anyway.
Hey Zetti,
Have you got yours set up yet?
Yep just waiting for 3 to move my number to my nano sim!

Received my 6+ Yesterday and I LOVE it.
Don't find it too big at all (which was something I was slightly worried about judging by the reactions on here).
Really enjoying it so far, and the screen...
Now just need a case
I have small ish hands and I dont find it that big tbh
The prices I gave were for screen damage. A complete unit replacement for water or drop damage is over £200. So in those cases AC+ can be of benefit. But again, check your home insurance.
Also your bank. Barclays offer phone and gadget cover for £7.50 a month. Covers 2 phones, gadgets upto £750 and worldwide coverage.

.......don't listen to them 'Bendgate' rumors!!! A large proportion of different phones bend when masses of force are applied to them! This iPhone 6 'Bendgate' has been blown up out of all proportion!!!
This explains a few simple truths about this :

The iPhone 5S was said to bend, but i own the 5S at the moment (waiting on my 6+ to be delivered) and i have never had an issue with it bending, breaking or anything like that. I use it daily and it's always in my pocket while at university.
Any branded iphone cases for you guys who received yours?? Is it really easy to bend as they say like in this 20,000,000 views YouTube video !!

Just collected my 64gb 6+ space grey from Braehead organised a return for the 16gb 6+ loved the plus just needed more memory this time as this phone will be used as a kindle. Braehead said only had preordered pluses today so looks like still high demand. I think next time I'll use stores to by the new phone too much hassle using the send back for the online store be better if we could return item to a local store
I second that idea
Haha I never thought of that! Damn too late! Atleast next time I can drive the 2 hours to the store
going in for my practical soon!! XD
The green is very bright - almost like a neon lime green. Definitely the brightest silicon case Apple offer.

Good luck for the test!
I could mention the fact I think my 6 has a faulty screen... top 8th of the screen has weird darker patches, like the screen is in too tight or something.
I daren't post outside of this thread in case I cause 'screen-gate'
