Olly W is correct went to the Covent Garden store and the first person said she thought it'd still be available at the
moment but would need to check with her colleague but then he said no it's now only available on the new phones 8/8+/X

I’m not sure I think a lot of people who aren’t will to pay the £1000+ will go for this option
I beg to differ a lot would stump up the extra money per month I reckon.
People who buy outright will have a harder choice to make.
Wired. Out of the box you’ll get the normal slow charger, so you’ll need to spend another £70 to get the correct fast charger and cable.
I don’t believe Apple have said which version of Qi but the rumors are it isn’t the latest, faster charging variant.
One of my concerns about getting the iPhone X with IUP is if I regret the purchase afterwards. As I'll no longer have my existing 7, I won't be able to change my mind & return the X. I'll then be stuck with paying at least £400 more than I'd have needed to when staying on the 7 & still presumably have to pay to upgrade again in Sep 2018 as I won't have made the required 11 payments.
The delayed launch of the iPhone X might well impact those on the IUP if they want to upgrade at the earliest opportunity next year assuming Apple are back on track with their normal September release schedule.

hmm just read about this "iphone payments" and to me it makes iUP look like a bit of a rip off.. the trade in of my phone is currently more than my remaining payments and that would be less if it didn't include apple care..
how did i not hear about this option sooner =(
on the iphone x it makes the monthly payments £10 cheaper

There's a thread in the iPad Accessories forum discussing 3rd-Party USB-C chargers (and cables) that support Fast Charge.

Friday morning - this thread will EXPLODE!!!!!!!!Anyway after Friday this place will be a ghost town until mid late October
Don’t faff, never faff... get the order in and then look around. You can then always cancel
Ok cheers for that
TBH - I am still stuck whether or not to go for a 'Plus' model?! I've never owned a 'Plus' model before so a little apprehensive that I'll actually find it too big!!!
...come 8:01am on Friday morning - I'll be on a train commuting to work so I'll have the Apple Store app open on my iPhone 7 with repeated taps on the damn screen until I get a reserved phone via the IUP!!!

Envirofone offered me £366 for my iPhone 7, which I think is pretty good!

I haven't, no but I'm using them this time around based on recommendations from posters in this thread!
going to try booking release day off but working in a phone shop means my chances are slim xD
...no but I may get into work late, after visiting my local store to collect my phone (Bromley)!!!
Will be interesting to see the split between orders for the 8 & 8plus vs X. Im selfishly hoping everyone goes for the 8 as I would dearly like my X this year!
