So £176 without AppleCare. I can see some benefit to AppleCare as part of the IUP (since the cost is spread out) but see no point shelling out £199 when buying a phone outright. Might as well take the gamble that you won't need or even stick £199 away in case do.
Wonder if the X will be different with the OLED screen.....
I been with EE for years now and they are really good. I have 25gb now and often get close to it and occasionally use it so this 100gb deal with free calls and texts basically means free everything. Im going for the X 256gb as used 90 odd gb now :O
I spoke to them yesterday and when you pre order you can pay as much or as little upfront as you want so I'll likely pay for the phone and have a low monthly tariff on the annual upgrade again. You also get 24 months BT Sports app which I too use often
I know this is a very broad question but, is Apple care worth it in your opinion? I’m insured with my Lloyd’s TSB account (with £100 excess) but being put off using that reading people’s comments with insurance in this thread. So I’m looking at apples new prices for screen damage and I would not be happy spending £175 for screen replacement and £400 for other damage and thinking Apple care seems like a good investment (£150 for 8 plus)
Anyone going to go for the 8 or 8 plus with all these rumours flying around about yet more delays? Personally I am going to wait I would kick myself if I got an 8 plus and the X was easy to obtain within a month or so after 27th October.
I think as long as you order within secs of it going live the chance of getting it in nov is possible.
Not much chance of that will be getting my daughter ready for school unless I get her ready a bit earlier so I can quickly grab my laptop and try pre-ordering on IUP.
I doubt it because the servers will seize up within milliseconds with people trying to get it. It looks like a fools errand to me.
Many will get one so somebody has to get lucky.
I’m going to order IUP and via EE website as you have think Apple gives carriers some stock
My plan still is to pay off Vodafone completely this gives me an option of pre-ordering a contract phone (second choice) and pre-ordering through apple on IUP or credit card and then try to change to IUP on collection.
Don’t worry it’s half term
I never follow school holidays got my wife for that
Well that's a small bonus if that's the case can get to work early and prep for F5 and/or seeing the whole website crash!Reading all these reports makes me think that the X will launch with delays from the offset. I’m lowering my expectations for a new phone for Christmas
Apologies if this has been asked before, but if the phone is readily available lets say end of dec and apple release a new X in September 2018 I assume you would need to pay for the 2 or 3 months remaining in order to upgrade early through apple?

I am under no illusion that I will get it before December I just hope as time goes on it's more readily available.

My current Apple leather case still looks good after 12 months so I'll probably get another (different colour) for my 8 Plus
.. yep, looks like you guys waiting for the iPhone X will be lucky to get your devices by December.
