I'll be reserving any future purchase there. Much better management of the reserve queue. I lined up despite having a reservation as I had driven Cyrus up and just wanted to keep the guy company. Chatting while waiting in line with other boardsies was good craic and really helped the morning (2am in line) slide to afternoon (purchased just after 12). Back in Dub now and getting ready to open the purchased 6 128Gb. The shop has display models of the 6 plus for anyone who'd like to see just how massive it is.

Is it a complete waste of time heading up there tomorrow? Hoping to pick up a silver 6, 16g.

Did anyone pick up their reserved iPhone early, mine is not until 8-9, but I'd like to get a start back down home early if possible

Hi. I am not long home from Apple Store. I picked mine up more than 2 hours before time and there was no problem whatsoever.
Hope this helps

Worth giving them a call to see what their stock is like.

They told me that they're opening up the reservation website again sometime in the next few days.

My pick up time, 11-12 got in at 10!!! Wow. Reserved a 6. Space grey. Got it changed to 128gb. No prob. Then asked for a 64gb silver. Got that too. Wow. Big shout out to Pete, great guy. That whole reserve thing, so so worth it. No queueing. At all.

Sounds like you got lucky alright. They wouldn't swap my 16gb 6 for a 64gb because they wanted to 'keep on top of stock' and suggested I join the unreserved line.

I'm up & running on my 6 happy days! Some weather out there safe travelling from Belfast.

Just heading up Arthur street now. Have a 64gb space grey 6 & 6+ reserved. Will let you know about queues

JoeyJonson

Yeah unreserved queue is still quite long

Apple saving a few bob this year by not putting a graphic on the box.

JoeyJonson

Yeah it looks bad. I asked the guy about it and he said the concensus was that they ran out of time

mad muffin

I don't know about you guys but I only ever see the box twice. When I buy the phone and when I sell it.

Finally coming back to myself now with the lack of sleep and being like a zombie... But even tho I didn't grab a phone to buy personally this year, I still think the que does be great craic and anybody who is on the fence about going up and grabbing a phone all I can say is,

Try it once & see what you think,

It's what's inside the box that counts loving my 6 . Perfect size screen . Only downside is unoptimised apps that look blurry on its screen

Because recently had a 5 & decided not to buy a 6 as was thinking it was well to big and reminding me of android phone (Samsung s4) but oh how I was wrong! 😠when seen it in action I was like that's perfect size! 😎 recently picked up a brand new 5s with Apple warranty so happy enough with that for the time being,

I arrived at about 6.20pm. About 10 in the reservation que and about 69 in the normal que. I asked the girl at the top of the normal que how long she was ther and she said nearly 3 hours.

Got my 2 phones and when leaving at about 6.45 the que was out the door and down to the footbridge and about 3/4's the way over the foot bridge.

Thanks MM top man.
prob go with the plus

no contract prices from emobile yet and im due an upgrade. but ive the 35pm unlimited all at the moment so wont be giving that up, even if it means going sim free. the contract prices from other carriers is high and the data caps low with some.
sim free may be the way to go....decisions decisions
