UK iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus Thread

Just for info; read this on Lifehacker;
Every time Apple releases a new iPhone, there’s always the question of whether or not your old case will work with the new models. Thankfully, Apple’s own store suggests older cases will still work.
If you take a look at one of Apple’s iPhone 6s leather cases, you’ll find this little note:
The case fits snugly and your iPhone 6s or iPhone 6 still feels incredibly slim, even with the case on.
Which is all to say that despite the the chunkier phone, old cases should work (tighter cases could have problems). So don’t rush out and spend a ton of money on a specific 6s/6s Plus case unless you want to.

Thought about it but the price difference is so little it makes sense (to me) to get the latest.
I'm sure I'll cope
£58 p/m however it goes down to £43 after the Employee Advantage scheme discount they have and i paid £19,99 for the phone. Is that good? 6GB of data but unlimited for the first 3 months , unlimited mins and texts.
That's good anything under £50 a month these days is good...how do you get that discount? My mom is on Vodafone and that's ideal
What GB phone you getting?
Basically Vodafone offer a program called that and there is a list of companies under it , and mine happens to be on it. I just fill out a form when i get it and it gets applied on the account. It only works on purchases made directly through Vodafones website or in store. It is the 16GB.
Only if you want the email ASAP. Which for me was a huge yes because I was panicking!
I can confirm this works!
I have to wait for credit check now
24 hours are going to drag. Least the phone is reserved though. Did you end up going for the RG ?While we're comparing contracts...
In addition to the personal iPhones I ordered today I managed to sort some business deals for my employer with EE.
64GB 6s: £68/month+£100 upfront for 8 GB, unlimited calls and texts.
64GB 6s Plus: £68/month+£200 upfront for 8GB, unlimited calls and texts.
Both inc. VAT.
Seems expensive, but it's a 12 month contract! So an iPhone 7 next year will be fine.
Plus the dedicated account manager is a big bonus.
Roll on the 25th!

I remember being an Orange premium customer. I would have access to dedicated customer service, I could pick any phone and upgrade almost anytime I wanted....
This was the days of Nokia N95's etc though
Hi guys, love this time of the year! per ordered the 6s plus this morning from three, first time with the bigger phone, just hope I don't need to buy a man bag for it ! does it fit ok in work trousers? by that I mean the trousers you wear with a shirt n tie! and what about denims? does it bulge out, the phone that is!!
Should be fine unless your trousers are petite. What contract did you end up with?
I'm not that tall and it fits fine in my regular trousers as well as my jeans. It's not quite a comfortable as a smaller phone but you get use to it. The only thing is it's difficult to bend down to tie shoe laces.
£60 a month! very expensive i know but there was no upfront cost(its an upgrade) and I was paying £55 anyway so I'm not that bothered, unlimited minutes and texts and 8g data, I'm happy with it!
Indeed! Rose Gold 64GB 6s and 6s Plus from Apple for my personal enjoyment (will probably sell one once I've had a play haha), in case EE don't deliver on time.This sounds like a good deal ! Did you also get the rose gold?
And 2x Rose Gold 64GB 6s Plus and 1x 64GB 6s from EE for me (my permanent phone) and my colleagues.
Exciting!
Oh, and a Space Grey 64GB 6s Plus for the boyfriend!
And just by reading all those about expensive tariffs is exactly why I won't go into contract not this time oh no! I'd much rather pay outright and have a cheap sim only deal any day
I got a Vodafone upgrade too. £45pm for 6GB Data, Unlimited texts and unlimited minutes. I have the exact same data plan at the moment and I pay £47 for it so not too bad! I did have to pay an upfront cost of £159 though, but overall I'm fairly happy with it.
Rather annoying that the 12 months of Netflix contracts are £55+, cheaper to just pay for Netflix separately

Bloody hell! Just got my partner a 6 Plus only last month lol! Doesn't look like he's too bothered lolIndeed! Rose Gold 64GB 6s and 6s Plus from Apple for my personal enjoyment (will probably sell one once I've had a play haha), in case EE don't deliver on time.

Thats the same deal I got with Vodafone on my iphone 6. With VEA scheme discount i pay 43.80
Think huge tariffs are the norm now...think paying £20 a month sim free then buying phones is my route. Buy new phone every year. .sell it for £450 and only pay £300 for a new phone
I see your point but I see it a little different, me and my other half have 2 contracts, they are due up every other year at this time, I always get the new phone, she gets the one I had! so I'm paying £60 a month for the 6s plus for 12 months, then next year I get the new one again! so thats £720 in total for a year which in my book is a good deal since the price for it upfront is £699 for the same phone, hope that makes sense!
