Why did they make it so the camera protrudes?
Surely they could've made it fit flush?

Yeah I'm pretty sure when they designed it they made it flush. They then changed their mind and made it stick out for s***s and giggles. You should see the void behind it. You could fit a DSLR in there.

Mine just arrived.

Do I need to use this new sim card or can I just pop the old one in?

Is that some type of enhanced wanking tool at the top of the pic?

Haha nah just got back from the hospital, that's for my messed up hand that I'm meant to wear for 6-8 weeks.

I preferred my story.

 

[Fletcher]

Glad I didn't go for the 6 +, the iPhone 6 is big enough.

Couldn't agree more. What a fantastic feeling handset.

This feels completely different from all other models.

A lot more so than 4 to 5.

 

[matt91]

We'll go with your story.


Anyone recommend me a decent case for a 6 plus. Weren't going to get one but I think I will now

 

[Gareth]

The Apple one?

 

[danzman1991]

Oh is your hand broken?

 

[matt91]

Oh is your hand broken?

Just a couple of fingers and a ligament torn

 

[Brad Smith]

I purchased a clear silicone case from carphone warehouse. Keeps the slimness and can still see the colour from the back.

 

[DB.]

Ive had mine arrive before 8:30 before.

But never mind

Depends what time the drivers leave the depot I suppose. They come in and start loading up from 6:30 - 7am, so if the driver is prompt they can be out very quickly.

Sorry to hear this.

Updated order status with Apple - Tuesday 23rd delivery which is good considering the initial expected date was the 29th-2nd

Definitely regret space grey a bit, although it blends in with my wallet and car dash more when i put it in the kenu airframe.

White next time round.

 

[paddymph]

Everyone happy they ordered the right colour then. I think I might be devo'd when I see a silver. I bought Gold!

 

[Brad Smith]

My silver 6+

 

[MarcB]

Mine was delivered today and the other half took a couple of pictures but told her NOT to open it.

iPhone 6 64gb still in the box and unopened

Never wanted the space grey one as i have seen them on the 5 5S and the amount of chips and scratches that show up are mad IMO.

Did not want to go for the gold one as i feel its a little OTT so went with the silver.

 

[Danny133]

LOVE the plus

 

[Gareth]

lol @ pics of boxes.

 

[MarcB]

lol @ pics of boxes.

She opens it she dies LOL

 

[philmots]

Got mine. The Space grey stood the test of time on my iPad...

Anyway, got it set up and it's exactly the same as my old one lol. Just a bit bigger.

The initial 2 mins of unboxing are fun, then it's just back to business with all excitement gone again until the next year/2 years.

 

[Ray Gin]

Managed to back up my 5 and restore my 6 via iTunes but only half of my apps transferred Probably not even half.

 

[Bubbles]

As a further illustration of sizes : iPhone 5, iPhone 6+, iPad Mini & iPad

 

[MicKPM]

I'm kind of missing the large screen from my Note3 but I'll soon adjust to the 6. It's not bad and I like being able to fully type with one hand however one thing I am missing (from Android)... A dedicated back button. One thing I'm loving about being back on iOS... Visual Voice Mail

 

[CrippsCorner]

Mine just arrived.

Do I need to use this new sim card or can I just pop the old one in?

I was given a new SIM by EE staff as he said my old one (in an iPhone 5S) wouldn't work with NFC. So easy now though man, instantly works as soon as it's put it, so just do it

It's actually not as big as I thought... I like it. The smoothness of the sides work really well with the 'backwards' motion. Only thing is that damn camera bulge, actually bigger than I thought it would be tbh, hopefully it won't be too irritating.

Oh and I'll just leave this here...

 

[Jaff.]

that camera coupled with gold has to be the ugliest apple device ive ever seen!

id happily have a phone .5mm thicker than have that stupid camera hanging out of the back like a f**king pimple!

 

[Bubbles]

Mine just arrived.

New sim will be required for 4G IIRC

 

[JCC]

Got mine. Happy I went for the 6 in silver, plenty big enough for me!

Hey Siri is a cool yet slightly creepy feature.

 

[Millsy]

Anyone got any pics of a 5/5s next to a 6?

 

[JonnyK]

Came home to see they delivered a space grey 6, despite ordering a plus! :s thanks EE!!

 

[philmots]

Anyone got the proper Apple leather case? Does it stand proud of the screen slightly?

 

[Gavin.]

iPhone 6 space grey 64gb ordered should have it on Monday.

 

[Gareth]

I've got one, but no phone.

 

[MarkX]

Anyone got any pics of a 5/5s next to a 6?

Dodgy ipad pic, but here's my 6 in a silicone case beside my 5
