I'm now updating my 6 to iOS 9.0.1, so that I can then back it up to my MacBook Pro and then restore my shiny new 6S+!

I also need to update my Watch to watchOS2, but that can wait!

And wait
And wait

The watch update isn't exactly fast

quick question, so you guys doing a backup and restore ?

Or is it best just to sign in the icloud account and start from scratch ?
 
Anyone else upgrading from a 5s like me is in for a treat - this is soooooo fast and the screen is super responsive. I had a film on the screen of the 5s - deffo nothing going on this screen!

I am glad I went for the 6s and not the 6s+ this screen is plenty big enough for me!

haha delivery van appeared outside, and started to turn around to head off, I ran out the door to see if it was UKMail, but it was a guy in a Samsung T Shirt looking for a house needing a TV repair.
 
... And delivered.

If you are in Leamington Spa then your phone may have been with mine. What happened was the driver for this area left the phones behind and they got a different driver to come and deliver them.
 
Some things I've learned today:
  • on the day Apple Store queues are much better than they used to be
  • Apple Stores in the UK will happily split your payment over multiple cards
  • Cex will happily give you the online price in return for a brand new iPhone (an easy £70)
  • John Lewis click and collect can be collected earlier than 2pm, 'ready between 11 and 1' apparently
  • Envirofone will lower the price quite a bit for what even they admit is 'minor cosmetic damage' (iPhone 6 64Gb £378 down to £321), kinda cancels out my cex win...
  • 3D Touch is every bit as awesome as I imagined
 
Your parcel is due to be delivered on 25/09/2015 between 09:34 and 10:34

According to my watch the package should have arrived by now, turns out maybe the window is not so accurate :(
 
Ok, I'm jealous of you folks across the pond. Enjoy!

I was jealous of New Zealand when I went to bed last night!

But new phone will be on 9.0! Better to update after restoring.......
 
My 6S+ 128Gb arrived at 9:00am this morning, currently restoring my backup from my 6+.

Luckily despite the slight dimension increases all around the official leather case for the 6+ fits perfectly.
