Poll: iPhone 6...

[Fuggan]

Had a look and everything on there is still set to 'pre-order'. God knows what that is supposed to mean. Surely if they were out of stock, you'd put them as out of stock?

 

[MagicBoy]

They can't sell out of stock.

It means order one now and we'll get one to you as soon as we get stock.

 

[Ryan-3]

My order - 64GB 6+ - states to expect mine between the 21st and 28th October. Long wait.

If you're with Three then just use the ThreeInTouch app and switch off 3G when you're in a WiFi area. It works very well.

 

[Marmot]

I found it very painless getting my hands on one, just reserved on the apple store Sunday morning and wandered in at my allotted time slot. I guess it depends if you're looking to buy one outright of course.

That I don't like. Rather go into the shop and speak to someone who can give me a date. I'll pop in on Saturday.

 

[MagicBoy]

Best of luck with that.

If you're going SIM-free then reserve one at your local Apple store. Worked well for me.

 

[Fuggan]

Nah, I'll be upgrading on my current contract. Would love to go sim free but can't really afford it at the moment.

My 5 definitely feels a lot nicer in the hand than my 6 Plus but the 6 Plus is better in every other way. I'm sure I'll get used to it .

Finance it yourself. There's credit cards out there with 20 months 0% on purchases. Do the maths and you'll save a couple of hundred quid on going via the networks, get an unlocked phone and you're not tied in to a contract for 2 years so you can move networks whenever you like.

 

[Cuchulainn]

Still no sign of my non-plus 6 64GB SG from EE, despite them promising Monday delivery and taking my money.

Considering we pay these networks generally well, their customer service, particularly the information they provide to customers, is absolutely dreadful at times.

This. The 5 feels precious without a case. TNT are coming this afternoon to return my 6+.

 

[Beasty]

I am gonna go have a feel of a plus tonight, can't upgrade till october 6th so doing some research before blindly diving in as I usually do.

 

[dink]

Got my 6 last night, 64GB Space Grey. Love it, was really surprised how big it is, definitely pleased I didn't go with the plus now. Apple leather case is nice as well.

 

[shiver]

Bought a silicon case with my 6 but I think it makes it too big.....plus it's too grippy making it difficult to get out of my jeans pocket!

Think I will just do what I did with all iPhones before, no case at all.

 

[thedoc46]

Had my 6 since last Fri and I've gotta say I have Been enjoying it very much.

More so than any other release of recent years

 

[thedoc46]

Typing on OCUK can be a bit of a challenge mind.

Good reviews on the app. useless in iOS8, poor mans facetime, rubbish update... etc.

 

[iMacMart]

Just seen a 6 for sale in HMV used customer stock window in town, shocked to see that days after launch

Another possible factor is that iphones are aluminium against the large majority of others being plastic and the plastic more readily regains its straight shape.

That's akin to saying that plastic is a suitable material to build phones with and that in this role aluminium may not be premium, would titanium be an suitable alternative?
