Well that sucks.

Do you have the send the phone back? Because 12 month contract keeping the phone would be like £60+ a month.

lewis111 07-09-2016 06:53 PM

Mess I was hoping for Gaga :/

I don't really know loads about it to be fair but from what I understand you have a contract with a network that's working with Apple and for a set price each month you get the phone and AppleCare for free, and then each year you get to upgrade free

Depends on the UK price whether it'd be worth it or not, I don't like contracts personally

Jack_ 07-09-2016 06:57 PM

Oh wait no it's actually a contract with Apple themselves

Ah ok, thanks.

Same, I might not get a contract with O2, might just pay monthly for phone through Apple and be on pay as go.

No finished, I looked at prices on Apple UK.

LukeB 07-09-2016 07:28 PM

you have to pay upfront and i'm seeing it's £44 or over a month

Braden 07-09-2016 08:04 PM

I'll probably just upgrade to iPhone 6S.

I really don't get why Apple would make a phone without a headphone jack :p

Glenn-C 07-09-2016 08:38 PM

Wireless headphones is a pretty cool idea, but what happens when you lose one of them?

reece(: 07-09-2016 08:56 PM

They can keep it... what if you want to listen to music whilst charging with a portable bank?

Pete. 07-09-2016 09:02 PM

No headphone jack? It's cancelled

lewis111 07-09-2016 09:10 PM

I literally spend 90% of my time on my phone with the charger and the headphones in like right now
So I'll pass
