I actually ordered from Amazon this time haha... I got Spigens newsletter overnight and the Amazon cases/glass screen protectors were still discounted.
Still went for the Neo Hybrid Carbon

Just had another look at the iPhone upgrade Program in the US. Its actually based on a 2 year contract but with the option to trade up for the new model after 12 months.
Technically you could upgrade every year but if you didn't you would still have to pay off the remaining 12 monthly installments and then i guess the phone is yours.

Don't think the iOS 9 GM is available to the public, only developers.

The "Skip envy" bit looks good.... No prices yet tho....
Skip envy
Get iPhone 6s on our 30GB tariff, and after 12 months we'll buy you out of your contract and swap you to the latest phone.
Pricing coming soon.

Just been playing with a 6 plus in local Vodafone shop and having owned a 6 for the past year it doesn't seem such a jump! Decisions aaaarrgghhh
While this is accurate (bar the actual prices) what's actually happening is that you're leasing the phone... when you take a second new iPhone after 12 months, you're starting another 2 year commitment... so essentially... you only get a new phone every year if you commit to continued payments of £40 / month to Apple, for ever.
What they didn't make clear was what the exit strategy was... theoretically, if you start paying £40 / month.. take a new phone after 12 months, you're in for another 48 months....
So.. 2x new iPhones... will cost you £1,440 (@£40 / month) over 36 months
Yeah size, felt comfortable in my hand. Couldn't try in pocket for security reasons ha.
Am I right in thinking that the 6S has less individual manufactured regional models than previous iPhones? As they cover more LTE bands etc?
The reason I ask, is that I'm about to move to Canada for at least six months. Looking at the LTE band differences on previous phones, it looked like a UK iPhone was not compatible with Canadian networks. Having looked on the UK Apple store, Canadian Apple store and US Apple store, they seem to list the same regional model. So does that mean they are more universal for network coverage worldwide?
Thanks

Going to be giving my 6 to the mrs when i order my 6s+ but might keep it till ios9 so i can have a play for a couple days and give it by next weekend..
Im feeling really nervous about the pre order on saturday. What tends to happen is you feel a little nervous, your heart beats fast and your shaking when clicking through the page to make sure you get the 25/9 delivery window lol

Im the same as you. I jumped back and forth and settled on 6. But been down to apple couple weeks back and played with a 6+, think they had fifa and halo game on there.
Felt so comfortable, i think im ready to jump to the bigger screen this year and beyond!!!
I went a bit crazy on Spigen cases thanks to their email.
Some of the cases were shown at £3.99 on the email but when you click through theyre £2.99
I ordered
Glas.tr protector 6s plus £5.99
Rugged Armor case £2.99
exact fit case £2.99
6S clear back panel plus TPU bumper £2.99 gone for rose crystal LOL - hoping its compatible with the iphone 6.
6S plus ultra hybrid bumper plus case £2.99
Total arouns £17.90-ish
Do these prices tally up with what others paid?
Im hoping this is not stock clearance of old stock though and will fit the new 6s
Just got 2 of the Spigen Ultra Hybrid cases in the post (ordered on Amazon when they were 99p each). They're definitely not old stock; the packaging says 'for iPhone 6s/6' and the cases have the new style buttons that aren't flush with the rest of the case. I believe the iPhone 6 cases had flush buttons.
I ordered from Spigen (Amazon) 6s+
Curved glass screen protector £1.99
Air cushion clear case 99p
Crystal screen protector x3 £1.99
Air cushion (again) £2.99
2 x front and back screen protectors £1.29
Spigen rugged armor 99p
Spigen Normal class screen protector £1.99
Ive recieved one air cushion and The crystal screen protectorsair, the rest will come around 24th to 28th.
