    €50 deposit pre-orders now on CPW

    Still no pricing a week before launch. Ridiculous. They'd have had estimates/ideas long before launch. I preordered the plus but hope I can change my mind to 6 regular, if the pricing is ridiculous!

    Pricing available from both three and meteor. Possibly also O2. Nothing from Vodafone yet, and all are eye-watteringly pricey.

    I've just done a quick cost analysis based on my own usage. Moving from an iPhone 4 bought shortly after launch so an upgrade is long overdue!

    An iPhone 6 (16 GB) with 24 months calls would work out approximately:
    Prepay (Vodafone): €979 (€699 from Apple + €280 calls (unlimited Vodafone calls and texts, 250 MB to 3 GB data/month)
    02 (billpay): €1209.99 (€369.99 upfront + €35 month, overall cheapest offer with O2).

    However, if I pick one up sim free while in New York this December I could save up to a further €149 on the phone (all US taxes included). The only issue relates to warranty claims so I'm a bit hesitant.

    Edit: My mistake. The sim free offer from O2 is €650. Thanks nailforhammer.

    Why anyone would buy sim free from O2 at €750 when it can be bought from Apple for €699 I don't know.

    That's the iPhone 6 plus o2 are offering for 750 whereas it's 799 on Apple so you're saving €49.
    The regular iPhone 6 is €650 from o2 on Prepay so that is also much cheaper than Apple


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,395 ✭✭✭McGrath5


    Does anybody know if I bump up my 6 plus order from 64gb to 128gb on Apple . Co.uk will I go back to the end of the queue?

    Yeah, I thought Google + died ages ago or at least stopped being relevant.

    Google+ is becoming the net's best kept secret. Most people either think it"s dead or crap. Excellent...

    No phones from O2 are sim free. If you pay €649 for an iPhone 6 they wont unlock it until you spend another €130 on credit.

    130?? Are they mad? I thought it used to be 50 or something?

    Oh well, if/when I get an iPhone 6 I won’t be getting it from O2.

    Afaik it's always been €127. I think some networks it's €150

    How did you order a Vodafone phone? Haven't seen any pre-orders from them.
