Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

I've been testing out a T-Mobile payg sim card while out and about this weekend to see if the coverage will be suitable for me to consider a sim only plan with them or not. So far it's shown a great level of 3G coverage while on motorways but it does also have total signal dropout every so often which I do not get with o2.

Hopefully by tomorrow night we will all know the handset costs.

yeh i can see its a pre order but was just wandering why they are doing it if nothing has been confirmed yet!
seems to me that they will not be locked tho.
 
Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

Why? Look at the price. £650. That's £200 more than it will cost.

There's no info on them being unlocked. But he's in America and they only have AT&T so it doesn't matter.

Yeah, T-Mobile are great in urban areas / motorways and so on but once you get out in the sticks, country lanes or wales you may aswell forget it..I'd been with them for 6 years or so and seen no improvement so took out an o2 simplicity for iPhone deal while the £100 quidco was on..

So far, in my nokia 6230i (sold my 3GS prior to the 4 being announced) the signal has been great! I can't comment on 3G/HSDPA coverage as my old nokia isn't capable but I know I'm covered at work and at home / parents / friends I have WiFi :)

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

I've been reading that 3G speeds on T-Mobile are slower than O2 so chances are I'll not bother switching if that is true. I'm not paying a additional £12.50 per month for HSDPA on T-Mobile.

3G on Voda according to my tests is quicker than O2 all of the time.

Look forward to seeing the prices tomo, hope it's not higher than £600!!! for payg obv.
 
Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

Unless the 16GB is £500+ on PAYG, I'll have to get one now.

I'm going to guess between £429 and £449.
 
Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

GF will be in the states before the UK launch, no doubt they will be cheaper over there?
Anyway, my question is, will a US bought iphone work here, or is unlocking/ jailbreaking needed?

Seems O2's site is 'down for maintenance' so wonder if that is iPhone updates or general stuff?

Gotta say, the new software is awesome! If any of you have a mac and want it early, PM me...the multitasking is great and battery life seems way better!

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

Have to agree with phuzion! Withhis help on file location I just stuck the gm version on and Jesus it's so much better than it was before! Ios4 is a massive leap forwards! I think the new hardware will be tge cherry on top! But so far after playing around for 30 mins I worked out most of tge features and I'm massively impressed bit that impressed me most was going in to photo album and selecting places it brings up a google map showing where you took all the images then use pinch and zoom in on a pin and it shows exactly where it was taken! Actually shocked me how good just that feature is!!!!

Standard WnW (or whatever they're calling it these days) is limited to 3G speeds rather than being unrestricted HSDPA, luckily as I was with them when they started to offer HSDPA, they unrestricted me.
They limit the upstream too..

I'm not sure if there's anyway around it these days, I read that they weren't unrestricting people even if they pushed for it :(

I'm rolling on an nokia E65...it's got 50mb storage, 2MP camera and WAP capabilities. I might just keep this and save my £500...

Why not just keep your 3gs and pre order the 4g like I am doing? Peasants...

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

I've got a friend who's facebook status is:

"£240 to end contract early, just sold 3G for £230...iPhone4 for £10!"

Obviously they misunderstood the deal.......when shall I tell him?

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

It's almost time!! I'm loving the O2 reduced rate upgrade offer, but does anyone know what that 'early upgrade' price is going to be? Noticed O2 are doing a phone recycling for cash, I had a look on this comparison tool and you can still get an ok price for your old iphones. http://www.comparemymobile.com/recycle/apple.html

I'm selling my iphone for £260, that should cover the swap cost! http://www.comparemymobile.com/recycle/apple/iphone-3gs-16gb.html

Also how cool is the new retina display!

The cost to end early is £20 per month for each month remaining on your contract.

Then you have to buy the phone at whatever price it will be for new customers on the tariff you choose. These prices have not been announced yet.

True. I feel like I'll be more at ease once my order is placed though haha. :cool:

You do realise this is a telephone and not an appointment for a replacement organ?

Really??

I've wanted one for ages and nearly got the 3GS a few months back but have held off for this. Pardon me for being excited. :approve:
