  1. Refresh my post, you lazy bastard! :lol: iPhone 6, 16GB, 64GB, 128GB
  2. Yep,I did the same with the 5, only waited 3 months but got a 2 year contract and the phone for £850 unlimited everything and the phone should still be worth maybe £200 trade-in Paying £700 for a phone and then the monthly contract on top is a bit rich really... Will see what three offer for my current £35 all in contract, if it is less that £100 then might be tempted
  3. Have you all not learned the lesson yet, prices don't go down until the next device is launched :lol;
  4. Just reply with: Yo, dude! or 'sup yo! or Booya Or short version: Hi
  5. Totally understand, Papster. You see, I've done the same on the iPhone 5S launch, although I was on 1 month contract, I decided to skip it and get the next one, which I did now Anyway, for those who are considering getting a contract rather than pay for the phone upfront, here are the costs associated: iPhone 6 iPhone 6 Plus
  6. While Apple's new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus have drawn attention for their new form factors and flashy Retina HD displays, the handsets boast substantial under-the-hood advancements, including support for the highly efficient H.265 video codec. As seen on Apple's iPhone tech specs webpage, both the iPhone 6 and its larger iPhone 6 Plus sibling leverage next-generation H.265 technology, also known as High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), for encoding and decoding FaceTime video calls over cellular. The phones also support the older H.264 standard first championed by Apple with legacy devices like the Apple TV and third-generation iPad. According to Matthew Fleming, an expert in the field of signals processing who spotted the new iPhone 6 feature, H.265 promises to deliver video quality identical to H.264 AVC at only half the bit rate. This translates into a massive overhead reduction much needed in constrained data systems like cellular networks. http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/09/12/apples-iphone-6-iphone-6-plus-use-h265-codec-for-facetime-over-cellular
  7. Samsung may have taken the earliest possible opportunity to mock Apple’s latest iPhone – and let’s be honest here, we wouldn’t expect anything less from the maker of the Galaxy Series of devices – but it seems that the unveiling of the iPhone 6 may be adversely affecting the Korean company in a way they’d never care to admit. In the aftermath of Tuesday’s media event at the Flint Center, buyback service Gazelle are reporting that requests for Samsung hardware trade-ins were up over 200% as consumers look to free up some financial capacity to purchase the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus when it hits the shelves. Apple has made no secret of the fact that it sees the introduction of the larger screen iPhone 6 and 6 Plus as a rare opportunity to gain more users by converting old Android users to iOS. Perhaps unsurprisingly, hoards of existing iPhone owners have begun trading in older devices in preparation for the launch of the iPhone 6 next Friday, but it will be comforting news for Tim Cook to learn that making the jump to 4.7 and 5.5-inch offerings seems to have had the desired affect of attracting valuable customers from competing platforms. http://www.redmondpie.com/iphone-6-and-iphone-6-plus-announcement-fuels-trade-in-of-samsung-devices Update: All models of the 5.5 inch iPhone 6 Plus are now quoting 3-4 weeks shipping. Apple is still stocking most models of the iPhone 6, however. The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus launch has not been smooth, to say the least. Many people are still unable to access the Apple Online Store to purchase Apple’s newest devices. Despite availability issues, many models are already selling out. Carrier websites are the first to be affected, naturally, as they always get less supply than Apple itself. Worldwide, reports show that Germany has already sold out of its initial stock and many UK carrier stores have sold out completely. We’ll update as availability changes.Some customers are reporting issues with iPhone reservations. Apple is saying that it cannot connect to carriers for processing, so although the iPhone is reserved, orders will have to be completed at a later date. Clearly, something is going wrong somewhere. http://9to5mac.com/2014/09/12/iphone-6-and-6-plus-already-selling-out-5-5-inch-model-particularly-constrained/

  15. So he doesn't know about the dodgy stuff you're doing while you're supposed to be working... I need to speak to SMD about this
  16. How many NFC payments have you made since 2012? Hard to understand, is not just the device's hardware capabilities, is about the ecosystem, the OS, the inter-operability, the user interface, the customer service, the PERFECTION of Apple products.
  17. Get a Home Signal Booster from 3. Customer service with 3 is the best by far in UK. EE sucks a lot, just moved back to 3, after trying EE for two months.
