UK iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus Thread

Mercenary said:
Ive been trying Blockr and Purify and so far Purify is winning. Both the same but purify is slightly faster and seems to remove more white space. Crystal is in last place for me as it leaves a lot of blank spaces where the ads used to be.

I am using Crystal and don't get any blank spaces.
 
Have any magazines made the transition from ipad only to iphone Plus?

Bit gutted Empire Magazine is ipad only. Not a problem as I have one but would have been nice to have on the S Plus.

Hi, just wondering, will the screen be ok without screen protection on it? Currently using a 5s work flip cover (same with 5) previously used a screen protection on the 3G, 4 and 4s.

Looking to buy a new case in anticipation of receiving my new 6s+

Thanks in advance.

This year I'm going protector free for the first time. Ive had a glass one on my 6 since release day and it looks great and this thing is way softer than the phones own screen. Its been in pockets with keys and all sorts. Ive even dropped it down the sofa into the metal mechanism. I then took a knife to the protector the other day and marked it which from youtube vids isn't supposed to happen to the phones native glass. So if the protector has lasted a year with no marks then in theory the phones own screen should do too.

Plus, I've always done it to keep the resale value up and I now say sod it, why am I living with a crappy screen just so some guy can have a pristine phone a year later. Plus I'm now not reselling it and using the recyclers which don't really care about screen scratches.

I have - Black, Brown and Rose Grey. Will probably keep the brown one and send the others back. Still waiting on my silicone ones to turn up.

Did you have a iPhone 6 or 6 Plus silicone case? If so, any differences?

This was a 6 Plus case. I have a 5s at the moment, it absolutely dwarfs it!

Haha, go for it, they look so good together! I copied the gold Apple watch with the midnight blue band that one comes with!

How much? Tempted but I have 3 cases already

£25 for the 6s and £29 for the 6+. Quite pricey compared with most cases, but has a feel of quality about it.

CEX - £364
Envirophone - £340
Mazuma - £330

Not sure who else to try. Everyone has put me off selling it on Evil Bay.

Would just say that I've used Envirophone and Fonebank before and they were both excellent.
I have also used CEX (which I keep pronouncing 'sex' by mistake! :oops:) and almost everything I've sent them in the past I had thought was in 'A' grade condition but they judged it to be 'B' - they were consistent at least but I definitely ended up getting less from them. An 'A' has to be literally as new.

A grade means unopened charger/headphones I believe

Mines silver tho :p we can match
 
Counting the days now until I pick up my Rose Gold 64Gb 6s. I'm coming from a 6 plus which is just too big for me. New cases arrived. I've now got three. It's like finding dresses for my new dolly when I was a little girl. Very silly, but very exciting

Why is it still Friday! Feels like it's been 2 weeks already?! Might have to buy a 6 to use for a week then return after I get my "s". Would that be a bad thing to do?

Genius. I like that idea. I'll flog my 6s+ a month before the 7 announcement and keep buying and returning phones every two weeks until the 7 lands on the doorstep

I've been considering the same myself, partially because of the CEX resale values on my old phone - I'm sure they'll go down once I'm ready to sell! What puts me off is that I think it'll take some of the shine off the 6s, I'm upgrading from the 5 so some of the features I'm looking forward to are available in the 6. I've decided to be patient - only a week to go!

I kind of feel a bit guilty of doing something like this but....I have a 6s plus ordered for delivery next Friday, a 6s for in store pick up. Both my brothers have 6's so have thought of "down sizing" so "trying" a 6 for a few days to try and decide makes it feel reasonable to do?.....

So what will you do if you drop and break or lose the iPhone 6?
