Specs mean very little when real world tests or geekbench scores tell the real story.

I did feel that way until i held an S7 edge in my hand, the screen is absolutely fabulous

The Note 7 gives a lovely warm feeling...

FYI: Three have started to ship preorders today using Nightline.

yep there is an option to keep your current plan, even the loyalty discounts.

If Vodafone had that I'd bite their hand off!

Has anyone had their order status changed today. Apple said it should be with me tomorrow but I'm still in the "Preparing for dispatch" phase

Still "preparing for dispatch" for me. It looks like it's the same for everyone else, including those who got a text message today to say that their phone has been dispatched.

What's an affinity discount? The data is why I am on it too.

don't wanna go down this rabbit hole, but if you are paying 80 euro and mainly a data user, you're on the wrong plan.

Ah it's also the 500 minutes and texts worldwide. They get used too. Data calls would be an option only the main person I call never has data coverage where he lives. Part of me wants to dump Vodafone and just go to Three or a network more suited to big data users.

Dispatched on 10 September 2016 and the est. delivery is tomorrow!! It was the 20th!!

I've done my sums and the better networks* aren't really offering that great SIM only deals, unless you are okay with being constricted with minutes/data. When you add in €889 for a 128GB handset from Apple there ain't much to choose between them. YMMV.

* Some animals are more equal than others!

I did the same and if I move to the €25.41 sim only plan as my contract is up, it works out pretty much the same give or take a tenner over the 2 years. The freedom to move networks/have an unlocked phone is more important imo

Mine just dispatched there. Happy days.


Don't forget to bump your ParcelMotel insurance folks!

Mine just changed too, but it says dispatched Sep 10th, not that it makes much difference, delivery is scheduled for tomorrow.

Dam it, so jealous no sign of movement on my iPhone 7 plus

neonman

Neonman logs into his apple account to check his order after seeing the above posts hoping that his might have changed to an earlier delivery date but sees it is still "Processing items" and delivery is still "4th of Oct - 9th of Oct"

SAD FACE :-(

Vodafone being very secretive about when we are getting our phones. Showing as awaiting dispatch, I'm to pick mine up in store so was hoping to get it tomorrow

Gumbo

I'm the same. No one has a clue or they are told to keep quiet and play dumb. I ordered as soon as they were available to order last Friday so hoping I get mine in store tomorrow.

Meteor better deliver the phone tomorrow as my sister has to get it to me! Monday is too late!!!

Hope to get my 7 plus tomorrow, got a text earlier in week indicating I should.
Headlines on CNBC right now: iPhone 7 plus sold out globally.

Has anyone seen this fella's claim? Seems legit. Although shipped from Apple Cork? Do they ship?

Nope it is the "journalist" making a wild guess.

"Apple Distribution" is probably just the entity which funnels the profits and does what the European Commission is not happy about.

Hopefully the deliveries will be all straight forward tomorrow with no delays. Worried that the bus strike and extra traffic build up could cause delays.
