As a long-term iPhone user, I can say that the 6s was the most disappointing update for a phone - 3D Touch, most pointless gimmick ever added to a phone? The worst bit is as everyone flocks to them each and every time, this encourages less and less innovation and prices remain sky-high, all while iOS updates cripple older devices bit by bit until they're paperweights.

Useless comment.

Voted up just to counteract that morons vote. And because this is an ok deal

Down-voted because it's an Apple product.

Phoned up John Lewis this evening asking if they'd be able to sell one of these for the reduced price of £619 as they did recently but was told no, guy looked up price history and confirmed the price reverted back on 30th March 2016.

I do wonder how only John Lewis and Curry's/PC World seem to be about the only mainstream retailers who have reduced the prices on iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s recently? The price reduction on this particular handset was a not too shabby £80, nothing to be sniffed at!

The search continues for a decent deal on a new iPhone...

I Don't understand why you argue the point, things that aren't useful to you are still useful to others.
Despite any media stories, the iOS is STILL more secure than Android. You mention how things have been hacked, that's because they are DIFFICULT to hack, so difficult, the FBI took months to do it.

Anyone with a brain can access the contents of the memory on an Android device. Very strong (but not perfect) security is still better than what android offers, along with their absolute cack fingerprint reader.

and your comment on the 240fps video, actually yes, I do find it very useful as I'm very creative and I have used this feature for 100 applications.

And yes there are personal attacks on iphone users, calling them idiots and iSheep.
At the end of the day it's our choice, how does it affect your life in any way? All you are doing is making iPhone users more defensive, and for what?

I used to have the Galaxy S5, I know exactly how to use it... to it's full potential. But I didn't like it.
To me it felt like an clunky and ugly system where most of the independent apps felt a little awkward and generic (of course the big name apps were fine).

Yeah, there's so much more it can do, I agree. But the fact is, I never used half of that stuff, and never will. Not because I don't know how, but because I just wouldn't need to.

So I'd rather invest my money in a Phone that focusses on the things I DO want to use.
The iPhone deals with that. The interface is flawless, polished and very smooth.

Yes I could jailbreak it if I want, and use more potential, but I don't need to.
If you want to do a million and one things with your Phone and customise it to your hearts content, buy an Android.
If you don't delve too much into the deep customisation and aren't fussed about the features of an open source OS, then buy an iPhone. You'll get more simplicity, better support and better security.

So there are up-sides to both options, and downsides, and a lot of personal preference.
Whatever your preference is... don't let some insecure *** (male genitalia) tell you you're being an idiot... it's your choice.

People need to grow up on here and stop whining about people who choose something different to them.
We get it, you've bought and Android, there's a medal waiting for you when you press ALT+F4.

Jesus.

Think it was only a few days ago.

how long ago did this expire! :disappointed: Really wanted to buy outright at this price.

any idea if the deal will come back any time soon? was in the market for a new iphone!

I will by IPhones now, just to annoy Android totalitarians like you.

I've had samsungs, HTC's and even a blackberry.
I prefer iPhones.
If you don't see what I see, that's not my problem.

If you want to make an informed decision, just go with what you like. You'll know enough people that you can try out their phones and see how they function. Just pick your fave and don't listen to any of the biased idiots in this thread.

Love an iPhone, don't want the SE but can't wait for the next one. Have my money ready already.

Some lunatics on hotukdeals for sure, on benefit and can't afford an iPhone, jealous of those than can afford it.

Cool story bro. Moving swiftly along, Android wins :smile: /thread

Apple:
- Premium customer support
- unmatched security
- 240fps video capability (for slo-mo)
- Apple Pay
- regular tailored hardware-specific OS updates
- best fingerprint reader (by a long shot)
- Excellent aesthetic design
- iOS allows the iPhone's "inferior" specs to actually outperform the S7.
- easy to manage cloud services
- walk in Apple support, on-site swapouts if needed.
- Facetime (integrated)
- iMessage (integrated)

There are lots of reasons why I choose an iPhone.
There are different things you can do with an android, none of which I am interested in.

It makes me laugh how Android users feel the need to attack Apple users... Why?

You're not helping anyone make an "informed decision", you are giving them a clouded vision of all the things The iPhone can't do. Well I'm afraid it's not as simple as that, many people appreciate all the good things you fail to mention when slating the iPhone and those who choose to buy them.

Nobody, not anyone, is going to be in the market for an iPhone and then change their mind because they read your post.

I've been a IT systems engineer for 12 years, I think Macs are hideous and I despise them, but that's my opinion and I can see why people like them. But I don't start attacking those who make a retail decision that opposes my preferences.

I am a heavy PC user and I know the benefits of granular configuration, but not everyone wants to worry about this with their phone. Including me.

The benefits outweigh its shortcomings.... For me.

Perfect example, this is what Apple wants, let's look at the FACTS
1. Do you see a lot of iPhones with cracked screens ?
2. Is Apple one of the most profitable companies on earth ?
Both answers seem to have an uncanny connection, i wonder why that is ? lol

Another reason not to buy their products alongside the cash hording, coporation tax dodging, the Foxconn suicides. A very important point you raise. Stifling innovation.

I really loved the "you can't expect these things to last forever story" too.

People like you are the reason that Apple are given the opportunity to abuse the patent system and obstruct technology advancement by trying to sue their competitors whose technology they ungratefully use, which without they wouldn't even exist!!
Notice that, NONE of Apples competitors rely on anything that Apple owns.
Apples business practices are the cancer for the evolution of technology and the sooner they go out of business, the better.

Yes, I'm six. And still more intelligent than you.

"The new iPhone update is leaving many people unable to click on links because of a problem with Apple's software.
Thousands of people are reporting that, after downloading iOS 9.3, they are unable to actually follow links to where they point. Some report that they simply do nothing, while others have said that clicking on them causes apps and their phone's software to break."

Way to go Apple. Just such good cutting edge software.

Lmao at likes comment, what are you 6years old?

Someone who spends £620 on a mobile phone need not tell anyone else to open their eyes.

Indeed! £619 instead of £699 is great saving. So open your eyes...

Who the hell are you to call me a stupid person? I didn't call anyone stupid in my posts. Lol. You are beyond repair buddy. It's got nothing to do with not being able to afford it you moron, if you don't understand that, you are simply beyond help. Common sense is unfortunately something that cannot be taught. You think it's a premium product because of the price? You are laughable.

Also, look at your profile page and take your own advice...LOL

"The rich is not the one who earns a lot, but the one who spends less."

Typical.

Stupid comment , stupid person....Dont be so angry if you are poor and can't afford iPhone.
I have tried many androids and they are all pretty much crap compared with iPhone. Same with PCs. OS X is unbeatable for video/audio/photography editing. Windows pc only good for gaming-so just for children...

As far as I'm concerned "nnenne", your 56 likes versus my 889 tell their own story. So why don't you keep your opinion to yourself, as clearly it's not as well received as mine. I will comment when, where and how I like, and, if I can do it on a thread where it irritates you, all the better. Eat me.

Unless you use those £3.49 phones, I put it to you that you're wasting your money.

Hope you don't buy anything nice in your life as they're all waste of money. We can go on and on about value for money.

Of course if can't afford it, that's a different matter.

If that's all that matters to you, fine. It's absolutely your choice. But the facts are the facts and whether you acknowledge them or choose to be oblivious is entirely your perogative but remember it's worth (in this case) £600, which, again, is your money to waste!

Something is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. To me it's worth it, hence why I pay it and love it. Surely that's all that matters.

It is your choice. It's also other people's choice to state their opinion on a public forum, whether they are facts or simply observations, the primary one in this case being that iPhones (and generally most Apple products) are not worth their weight in gold and offer abysmal customisation, memory expansion (non existent), easily breakable screen and more. These are fair observations. That's my opinion, do with it what you will, i don't care.

My money,, my choice. If you care so much for iPhone users and want to save us all as you seem desperate to, buy your fav phone for us and we'll convert, until then, keep your opinion to yourself, not needed here and not helpful.

Apple or Android who really cares :smiley: as long as you are happy with your purchase that's all that matters. If someone can justify spending 100k + on a sports car or £500 on a handbag, I'm happy to spend £600 on a phone which I will use everyday for around 2 years before selling it in for at least 50% of its original value to someone is a little more money savvy (or tight) to enjoy :smiley:

So this is all still going on? I believe we have given these rich folk spending £600+ on something worth 1/6 that amount enough headache! :smiley:

Is the comments section designed for trying to coerce people into changing their mind about the things they like? I honestly don't know anymore.

Do people stalk threads about coats and handbags and 'inform' people that their Hermes is no more functional than one from New Look?

Fine, Apple are rip-off merchants and I'm an idiot - I've just spent £439 on an iPhone SE. I barely made much more than that selling my S7 Edge. It's not my fault though: Apple convinced me their stuff was good and I had no choice but to buy it, and I only didn't enjoy the S7 Edge because Apple told me the iPhone was better. If someone had come forward sooner and told me how much RAM the S7 had, or that Android was more flexible, I might have seen the light. :disappointed:

People have a right to their opinion but surely people looking at this deal are just after an iPhone; they're not wanting to be nagged at, undermined or patronised for their choice of phone. I'm not sure why people feel the need to take to these threads to spout off about how good or bad a company is.

If someone wants the latest iPhone this is a good deal, relative to the RRP. It's no-one's business how people choose to spend their money, nor is it relevant how cheap other phones are.

If you prefer Android then enjoy Android. Convince your family and friends to use Android if you like.

But dont go about telling everyone how wrong they are to choose to buy one - it's your right to have an opinion but it's not your right to tell other people that they are wrong to like iPhones, or how to spend their money.

I moved to Nexus 6p after years of iPhone use. No regret and enjoying the change. Switch hasn't been completely stress free.
- car usb not picking nexus 6p, not playing music from it. Not android fault if honda did not make android compatible usb. My car does not have Bluetooth
- car usb not charging nexus so have to use usb lighter port
- there is no option of turning mobile data off for some apps without root. Background data block is available but i needed more
- no awesome notes app for android

I am thinking of buying aux bluetooth adapter for car problem. Can anyone recommend good one?

Choice. That's the pivotal word. The question is, how free is your choice? Ever watched Derren Brown on TV? Choice is something so masterfully manipulated that he can make you think you've made a choice of your own free will, when in reality you've done no such thing. I find Apple's marketing combined with the desire of the human being to belong to something, a tribe, a group, a sense of fashion, is extraordinarily powerful. Enough to make people part with £700 for a phone.

It's a good deal for what it is. I personally find the 6S Plus too big. It totally dwarfs the S7 Edge even though both have the same screen size! Apple don't know how to make phablets yet, whereas Samsung have perfected the art. But if you're an iPhone fan and on an older model and want an Apple phablet, this is a pretty good deal. Heat added.

Ahh ok. Thank you :smiley:

It is showing as £699. Was this price lower before or was it a code we used to get the price down?

It's ok to educate someone but no one cares for people dictating how others use their hard earned money.

A company tries to make a big margin profit? Wow, didn't know companies were supposed to do that!

Preaching to people to convert from one religion to another hardly ever works, neither will trying to force them away from Apple work, nor forcing them away from android work mind you.

Unless someone is prepared to give me a free samsung as a second phone(for free of course), I'm not buying one, regardless of how cheap it is or much better. Some of these people that bang on about Apple are secretly in love with the company or are jealous of their success.

My money, my choice.

Why is it that people with nothing else to do, keep bugging others not to buy an iPhone? Basically dictating how people should spend their money.

It's laughable and desperate. My money, my choice. If you choose android, good for you, no iPhone user, who has not specifically asked for your opinion, cares or wants to hear your opinion.

Price is now £699.

Thanks people!!

The problem is that your opinion isn't information, and nor is your stance on what is and isn't useful. I use both platforms and they are both equally 'powerful' in their own right. As someone with a Mac though, SMS forwarding, handoff and Airdrop are ridiculously powerful tools in terms of productivity. Have you ever used these services? If not, are you really providing people with an 'informed' perspective on the two platforms?

Android has a legacy setup in terms of file systems and suchlike. If that's what you prefer then it is the better choice.

It's all about what you want to do and how you want to do it.

A classic example of confirmation bias.

why oh why everytime I press COLD it only drops 2 degrees... This thing with Iphones it's like people sunbathing at North Pole. Why would you pay more than half grand when there's like 100 other options for at least 50% less?

interesting to see so many posts speak highly of Android and can do everything iPhone can, thus would like to have some advice please - use default mail app as one example, I like iPhone where I can simply use the built-in app to manage all email accounts in one place, and it works whilest in Android, I can do so it theory, but it just does not work - for example, iPhone will automatically display emails in screen width, I only need to scroll down to see the long email, photos will also be adjusted to screen size automatically, while on Android phone, quite often I have to scroll down and right because the phone simply can't understand the text and/or photo and not able to display in user friendly mode . Some may say I can install Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo or Inbox, but then I end up having lots of apps. Did I miss anything here? Over the years, I tried Sony Xperia, HTC One, Moto G, most recently Vodafone Ultra 6- always 'tricked into' buying it because they are cheap and spec looks great, but always ended up selling it or giving to others after a couple of weeks as I really can't stand with things not working when should be.

Having been lured to buy one of these and protected by Jonh Lewis's returns policy and a 2 year guarantee does anybody have evidence (personal experience, not regurgitated Internet chatter) that this iPhone will NOT lock to the first network it is connected to. I want this information before I even open the box. People who have first connected to the 3 network need not reply because 3 is unique in that all their phones now unlock or so I have been led to believe. Why a technical point on HKUD? My justification is that this is only a very good deal if the phone is unlocked to any network forever as ones bought from the Apple Store are.

sorry to spam this but....really this world we live in just shows how we get ourselves fooled by marketing, movies, image, hype etc. They sell you dreams, best photos when a g4 for less than that can give you manual, heck scratch the g4, a nikon d3200 is a quarter of this price if you really are into photography, exquisite design- it has a ton of top, bottom and side bezel with this particular phone being larger than all 5.5" screen phones plus everywhere you goo you either see cracked screens or people with ugly ass cases covering that exquisite design.
Super smooth OS - For what? using facebook and twitter? nowadays a £100 phone can do that, yeah it has the edge in performance, but is that worth £400 more to gain a milisecond while checking your news feed?
Storage - 8gb costs 400, 16 gb costs 100 more (example), when a freaking 8gb costs 1-2£ in china.
Feel proud to be in the ecosystem - safe and locked. I know people that don't even buy 1 song, don't use the cloud and don't install more than 10 apps on these, so where is that edge? where are you're 600£ going into?

When you're out drinking you'd easily spend £50 on a good day, but you'd say £50 is a lot for a shirt. That's exactly how people buying into Apple's hype are. It is not the product, it's the fashion object, the sense of achievement, sense of owning the grail, being in with the crowd, showcasing a masterpiece in your hand being able to just use simple apps like calculator and facebook on the go.
Yeah me too, and others are or were attracted by it but you got to stop and think, what options are there? what I will use this for? Can I get a better deal? Think about it, you do this everyday here on this website as well as on the market or at your local shop. Why not do this when it comes to phones? God knows we are past the era when Nokias really were good phones and not much more options were there so you're spoiled for choice. Just get out of their money marketing machine and see past the "same iPhone now better".

I got my iPhone 6s Plus in December but there was not a snowballs chance in hell I'd have paid a huge amount of money for it up front like certain networks were asking, I wouldn't have the phone otherwise. The iPhone 6s Plus wasn't long out at the time I purchased it and contracts were very expensive with a fee of approximately 200 quid on top of a contract no less that 50 quid. However I managed to get my contract for 47.50 per month which included no up front cost and that was for the 128GB 6s Plus.

Unfortunately I don't use a mere fraction of the 4GB nor the several thousand minutes and texts included per month. That is a sore spot for me but at under 50 quid a month it's a damn sight better than forking out several hundred pounds for the same spec phone sim free up front. Only a complete and utter idiot would do that.

One day...I have a dream, Apple sheep will wake up...

Cracked Iphones screen everywhere, tube, bus, street: living comercial of what this phone is, a product that milks more money out of "loyal" customers every year.

S7 Edge is the best phone ever.

Have I found an alternative that is better in many many ways at a much lower price point? Yes. Dozens of them in fact.

And actually, I came on here to ask if these latest iphones can do what I need a smartphone to do. The complete lack of replies speaks volumes....

Just because you can't make an informed opinion, that doesn't mean that others can't!

Very useless comment indeed!

It surprises me how a phone that costs $236/£164 to manufacture can even make it onto this site as a hot deal at an extortionate £619!, when there are far more capable phones available at a much lower cost at RRP let alone on a discount!

I was thinking the exact same thing.
That's what i like about the community on this site, we all help each other to make a saving, companies like Apple are creating the illusion that their products are worth the price that they're asking for and people that have limited knowledge of these products are getting duped!
So it makes me wonder where androoski's interests lie when they complain about other people giving their informed advice on here.

This is a phone £600 my first car cost less

Wow. So many people think their way is the only way.

It's really nobody's business what other people prefer.

Hot because it's a good price and good deal.

And this is not hotukipreferadifferentphone.com

It's pointless trying to convey any common sense to a member of the iCult.

Actually, my comment had some useful information in, whereas your comment wasn't useful in the slightest.

Same with my S2 which I use as a secondary phone. Great then, great now and the battery still alive and kicking.

I had a Samsung Galaxy S5 before switching back to Apple as soon as this was released.

I love it! Think this is a great deal of you're after this phone but I'd be inclined to see what September brings...

Thanks for your comment, I will now switch to Android.

Not.

Pointless

It wouldn't be if it was Apple.

Virtually everyone I know with an iPhone has broken it - yet my Galaxy Note 2 is still perfect despite being repeatedly dropped really hard onto concrete from head height. And despite being over 3 years old, it's got functionality iPhones can only dream of!

My sons samsung galaxy s2 is still going strong despite being dropped 1000 times including in a puddle twice, how it's still alive i don't know!

Why expired? Two colours are still in stock.

Silver and Gold still in stock

Spam reported.

If ignorance is happiness, you must be the happiest person alive!

Glad you enjoy your new handset! And you've saved hundreds of pounds. I would recommend Nova Launcher (on the Play Store) if you want to fully customise the look of your screen.

After few more months you'll be back with Apple. Can bet on box of beer.

Have always been an iPhone fan. After 5 years and considerable convincing from others I upgraded to a Samsung s7. I won't be going back to IPhone any time soon. Far superior camera on Samsung, easy to transfer files, micro sd slot, very user friendly operating system now I am used to it. Apple will have to work very hard and it would need to be something pretty awesome to tempt me back now. Heat for the deal if Apple is still your phone of choice...

Saw this phone yesterday. Ordered and am waiting for it to be delivered today!
Well done John Lewis.

Your link to the thread did not come through. Have you personally experimented with various SIMs?

Sorry Yes, self employed so get VAT back sorry guys.

An even better deal

What do those lines have to do with 'AntennaGate'? That was six years ago!

As a long-term iPhone user, I can say that the 6s was the most disappointing update for a phone - 3D Touch, most pointless gimmick ever added to a phone? The worst bit is as everyone flocks to them each and every time, this encourages less and less innovation and prices remain sky-high, all while iOS updates cripple older devices bit by bit until they're paperweights.

Yuck those protruding antenna gate lines

Voted up just to counteract that morons vote. And because this is an ok deal

Also, just wanted to add - yes they cost £10 to manufacture... I suppose.

But you are not paying for the manufacture.
You are paying for everything that goes into the design and creation of the device (physical and OS), as well as the excellent customer support from Apple directly, as well as the infrastructure to support manufacture. So that £10 is just the cost of materials. Just highlighting a flaw in your "fact" there.

Anyway, I have used both and I like both. I happen to prefer the iPhone, and why? Well they are my own reasons.

This is an excellent handset. Great specs for the price! Was £89.99 at one point! I agree with your point too.

620 quid for a mobile phone ?
I wouldn't pay that for open heart surgery.

A typical Android user.

Actually they are lucky if it is still working that long...

So how do we call people who buy new Android every 6 months?

Down-voted because it's an Apple product.

Let's put this one to bed.

821,800,000 iphones sold as of Q3 2015

It appears that they do.

Whilst I am totally with plewis00 in that their upgrades are so slight with some bordering utterly pointless (I am looking at you Live Photos...) the fact is they make a premium priced product and there are a lot of people out there willing to pay for it.

Weirdly though, a lot of those who don't want to spend their money on such an item, will instead spend their time posting on shopping forums like HUKD calling those others names (e.g. isheep) and basically talking down to them as if by not buying a specific luxury good makes them in some way superior.

It's a sad, almost tribal, state of affairs.

(P.s. I am not aiming this at you).

heat from me

£619 for a phone :confused: and people pay that.

I am treating my new vodafone smart ultra 6 (which is excellent with excellent reviews - google it) and costs £100 like its gold. I must live in a different world to anyone paying that for a phone

£619 for a phone. FOR A PHONE. Lmao.

​Anyone who isn't an isheep

Don't tell me Santa isn't real. I've just sent off my Christmas list :disappointed:

619 for a.... phone.
I can get a Nexus 6p for 200 pounds less easy.

Of course I know wrestling is scripted. I'm not 5 years old mate. Next thing you're going to ask me if I think Santa's real.

I need to chill? Just saying, it's a great price so go and get one. Not much use to someone who's buying an iPhone but it's great that so much choice is available to smartphone buyers.

lol u need to chill mate

Still overpriced by 300 pounds

£599 from giffgaff

Thanks for the posting I have ordered one to be delivered to my local Waitrose tomorrow and two friends have also taken the opportunity. It is a discount on an Apple product from one of the most reputable shops in the country: that is a rare occurrence and not to be missed. John Lewis also give a two year warranty - twice as long as Apple's. You can also be assured it is full UK specification if that matters, as it might for wireless compatibility.
This comments page seems to be more about the merits and retail price of various makes of telephones rather than the quality of the saving in this particular deal. Surely HotUKDeals is about Hot UK Deals not whether Samsung is better than Apple. I would like to know of any improvements to the Apple iPhone 6S Plus price that beat John Lewis without having to wade through endless garbage about androids and Samsung.

Thanks op!. I only ordered this phone for my wife last thursday from JL for £699!

But just phoned JL and they have credited me back £80.

You're right, I tend to skim-read. I suppose 2 year old made more sense than £200 year old. Perhaps if your Windows Phone eyes learn to proof read my Apple eyes won't need to worry about misreading a statement.

Bex85, you are a phone companies dream, new/different phone every year (or less) no wonder there are so many mobile phone shops. Ultimately a phone is a utility to communicate.
Apple have done a brilliant job in getting people buy and then keep upgrading year on year, if only we could get a British tax paying company to emulate it.

Mmm overpriced yes but it ain't junk

considering I've just got a Nexus 6P 128GB for £460 I consider this "deal" to be more daylight robbery lol... if anyone would like a iPhone 6 64GB though hit me up lol

My bad just realised its a plus

You are looking at this from a Windows perspective

On OSX you have the facility to drag and drop from iOS built into the platform; on Windows you have to install iTunes.

On Windows you have the facility to drag and drop from Android built into the operating system (it uses MTP); on OSX you have to install an app to drag and drop.

So the drag and drop idea is all relative.

Does anyone else just step back and think 'over half a grand, for a **** smartphone?!!'?

Search on here for Mophie Juicepack Helium

I like the IOS UI, works fine for me :smiley:. No struggle adding a video either. I just send videos over to my phone via WiFi, regardless of whether I've an iPhone or an Android phone.
Battery life, actually the iPhone 6S Plus has the best battery life of any phone I've used recently. The Samsung S6 I had previously was horrendous, the Samsung S5 was ok but, I ended up buying a second battery for it, the first time I've ever bought a second battery for a phone. The Sony Z3, no removable battery, was ok but, the iPhone battery still lasts longer and I use my phone a lot! I wont go any further back than that cos I could just rattle off more phones but, those are the 4 I've had in the last 12 months.
I disagree with the lack of functionality on Macs as well. Till about 8 months ago, I used to think they were overpriced for what they were etc etc etc but, I am now a proud owner of a Macbook Pro :smiley: - and I can tell you, that there are tons of apps on the App store AND there are a few apps that I use that are updated regularly on Mac, where as the Windows version, well one of the apps is like version 2 on Windows vs version 3 on Mac and another, has gone up to Version 2 on Mac now about 3 months ago, where as 15 months ago when V1 was out for Mac, the Windows version was coming soon........it's still coming soon o.O.
The only time I've needed Windows since getting a Mac is to install Odin on for a Samsung phone to flash a stock ROM onto it but, apart from that the Macbook runs much faster than any Windows laptop I've had and I cant say I've had any issues with my iPhone either. The S6 I had prior crashed twice in the two months I had it and I know I had to remove the battery on my S5 a few times. Still have an S5 as a secondary phone now but, if I have to use it and not my iPhone it's depressing to use. Found the same with my Android tablet, so ended up getting an iPad last week as my tablet just wasnt enjoyable to use any more as the apps I personally use are much more polished on iOS

Fair enough - hey u got any links for the £20 iPhone 6 case like u mentioned??

Wow wow calm down I meant android fanboys coming to downvote the post so what are you on about? Please don't ever accuse me of trolling as I've done nothing of the sort! I voted the post heat as a andriod fan and gave my reasons, I dislike fanboys filling up comments with android is better or apple is better as much as the next person! but they exist and as you'll see reading through the comments I was 100 right they arrived and they posted.

The problems with Apple is that they've produced a cult whereby current users will only keep buying Apple products.. These come at a premium price and are not all that..

I for one have had an Apple phone for a few years and it's crap: Battery life is bad and it hangs all the time. But they somehow get you hooked onto the OS and user interface..so the chances are I'll be sticking to it.. But will wait for prices to drop..

I'm a android guy but anything less than Apples RRP is heat, though the fanboys will be here soon.

Just Got One

Are you on some other thread that went cold? Or on this extremely hot one?

I fully agree security is everything, and generally there are many great security apps available to prevent any of these things happening. Most of them free as well. And they would prevent your situation from happening as the first thing that happens when a memory card is inserted is it's scanned by my virus software as well as the operating systems built in software. Yes they were designed there but they are still technically 'Chinese' phones! Yes but that is to market on Apples popularity which I think is a pathetic move by any company to copy another's design. As for the RAM, on Android you can flash tons of different custom OSs, I did it on my own phone to bring it to such a bare Android that RAM usage is minimal. This kind of customisation is lacking and unfair that people paying more than half a grand cannot do this on their phones.

I have a life, you should consider getting one, resorting to personally insulting me? My post was my opinion. But it included facts that clearly people like you can't handle. Nobody cares? You obviously do. No my downvote is my opinion on this product. Why do deals go cold? Because people believe that particular deal is not worth its weight in gold. So just an opinion. And yes please go ahead and pay £619 for something that cost around 10% of that value to manufacture :laughing:

No

Yes, adding a memory card is nice, but even the Samsung S6 didn't allow it!! Not all androids allow for that functionality. Also, it raises security issues e.g is the memory card being properly encrypted etc If you left your phone by the side, can I pop out the tray, drag and drop a malicious app onto it and pop it back into your phone (theoretical but still). I do agree, adding a memory card IS a great feature, but Apple don't do it for two reasons: 1) money - they prefer you to buy the more expensive model 2) Security. Security is everything in the tech industry, but you should know that because you worked in it.

Yes, iPhone's are made in China, but they were designed in California. The designs meet rigorous standards - look at the fake Apple chargers that always blow up. Apple's design is nigh-on perfect. I mean come on, look at all of the androids that copied Apple's design. There's no denying that.

As I said earlier, 3gb ram means nothing. Android needs more ram than iOS just to run. The whole OS is java based, so it's resorce intensive.

It's not snobbery as such, it's more about people resenting other people's choices.

I am an Android user, have been for over 6 years. Voted cold and i'll explain why. The first iPhone was incredibly innovative and implemented many features such as multi-touch that other brands implemented and also led the charge for fully touchscreen smartphones. However for the last few years, I sincerely feel the phones being released by Apple aren't worth their weight in gold. Software and hardware limitation, everything propriatary, poor quality of materials (incredibly easy screens to crack, usb cable easily breaking and same with headphones), non expandable storage etc.

The worst part? People buy these overrated, overpriced phones. Mostly without thinking of anything other than the fact it's "Apple iPhone". Most because they've only ever had iPhone and are satisfied with it's apparent "simplicity" and "ease of use". The sheep are the worst. As an ex employee of a mobile retail chain I am fully aware of why the majority of Apple users exist - word of mouth and recommendation. Even if you suggest something half the price with better functionality - NO. Apple please. These people I like to refer to as Zombies rather than sheep infact, as sheep have working brains!

Well if you believe it's worth £619 (for comparison, you could buy a car for this value) be my guest. I know of at least a 100 phones that are less than £200 that can achieve more than any iPhone can. I mean get real, you can't even do a simple drag and drop?! And these phones you are forking out over £600 for costs this greedy company less than £60 to manufacture.

I recently purchased a Chinese branded smartphone with 32gb storage, 3gb ram, fully customisable os/gui with a beautiful 5.5" display, fingerprint unlocking and excellent camera. And a 4000mah battery. I get nearly 2 days use with moderate to heavy use. I also use it for hardcore mobile gaming and no lag whatsoever. How much did I pay? £160 unlocked. If every Apple user on the planet got handed this phone they wouldn't appreciate that it's not only more bang for their buck but a genuinely better innovative handset with endless customisation. Anyway the point is...Apple need to change their ways. For the sake of morality if nothing else. And iPhone users need to wake up. Good day!

Android this, Apple that!!! Nobody give a f**k!!
If you like Apple, you're gonna buy Apple.
No keyboard warrior is going to change anyone's preferred choice.
So all you are doing is making us read your pathetic drivel which applies only to you, as it's a pure matter of opinion.

Android is better because of this, Apple is better because of that. STFU and provide some real feedback which is relevant to this deal and market pricing.

That applies to both Apple and Android "fanboys".
Nobody wants to hear it, nobody cares.
Go convince your parents instead.

Muggles!

ios has better ram/processor management compared to android. this is why a dual core iphone 6 with 1gb blows android devices running octocore chips with 4gb ram madness google really needs to get a grip of their os.

Brilliant marketing getting consumers to defend the technology, the apple v android debate will go on for a long time. Phones have become the must have items, why ? You walk any Street go on any bus etc. People mainly use their phones to message other people or to play the likes of candy crush (which £40 phones are capable of)
At the end of the day it's a phone which 95% of users will never use to its full capability, but they can say I've got a iPhone 6s or s7 edge or the like.

Thanks, good post. I also wonder why smartphone choice is so emotive. I thought it was just tribalism, like supporting a football team, but I like the religion analogy. I guess it just shows how essential smartphones are to some people.

not sure what the hype its about...A quick check. Online. shows it's available elsewhere for less.
Wrt warranty. I Believe that the standard by apple is two years.
Tesco is selling for £599. You could also get. Quidco or top cash back on this to...here's The link...
Your text here

Wow, what a fab price! Hot hot hot.

It's got some hardware features that are nice - better if you ask me, and the camera is fabulous. I bought one on launch week but I couldn't get on with Touchwiz and all the bells and whistles (and no, a launcher isn't the answer). In the end, no matter how nice the hardware is you can't escape the fact that you spend most of your time immersed in the user interface and apps. For me iOS is better but that's just my personal take. The guy I sold the S7 Edge to loves it.

Love apple, and iMessage sending free photos just works, no silly apps to be bolted on, so you can do the same on an Android.... Works out of the box, nice phone, great deal... 2 years warranty.

Not really stingy - a lot of companies operate like that. Android manufacturers have to constantly discount because there is so much direct competition, as well as Chinese manufacturers churning out competitive hardware all the time.

What makes S7 better? the battery, the screen, the weight, its size, its looks?

You can get a Samsung s6 or Sony z5 for £300, how is this worth double exactly?

Overpriced

No other manufacturer would be guilty of using gimmicks would they...

Does anyone see this as a good deal in comparison to say, the Nexus 6P 64gb/128gb versions?

Can't believe people think this is hot. It's £619 for a PHONE!

It is amazing what marketing does now days. It is brain washing people. Why would you pay £600 for an Apple product when there are cheaper much better phones, such as Samsung S7 Edge.

Sorry if it is already covered before. But will it get locked to the first sim network?

Lol. Clearly hit you where it hurt. Yes I worked at a mobile retail store and heard from 100s of people why they go for iPhone everytime they upgrade and why they have had iPhones and the majority simply do because it's all they've known or they fancied a change from Samsung/HTC etc. Yes, you had a rubber case that absorbed the impact...i'm talking about a general sense here. Yes I can agree that Android does have some security flaws, and as for the malware, it's only if you are stupid enough to download something with a 1* rating that this will effect you. Nope I stick by that comment. iPhones are based on limitations and that is undeniable. Can you expand memory by 128gb in a second by inserting a memory card? No. This is a feature available in many smartphones under £200. That's just an example. You do know where these beloved iPhones of yours are manufactured right? The fact you think it impossible to use a Chinese branded phone for hardcore gaming shows how narrow minded you are. With 3gb of RAM what would you expect? Clueless you are. If I am an Android fanboy, you must have shares in Apple.

Has there been an iPhone deal yet that didn't turn into a load of people arguing about how overpriced they are and how much better Android is? Amazing how passionate people get about other people's preference isn't it.

The simple fact is that the Android glove simply doesn't fit some people, and vice versa. There's no point trying to convince people they're spending too much or their phone doesn't have the right specs, because at the end of the day some people know what they want, and it isn't necessarily the same thing as me.

I think the latest Samsung may be a little better. Cheaper too..

COLD.

Wow, stingy company! So this basically would make a ton of people buy instantly because they are getting some discount which they aren't used to getting?
Licence to print money! I remember seeing a documentary about how the iPhone cost just $100 to make and sold for $600, must make a killing on each phone. Doesn't really represent value for money in my eyes but each to their own.

​Ok that's fair enough. Never tried Apple myself but it's a good Apple deal when not in direct competition with Android even though Nexus follows it in certain ways.

Just over 10% off gets 1000°+ heat? There's 20% off promo codes for loads of sites and they never get as hot as this.

I saw a 20% discount code floating by here just last week

So you can't get a discount on Apple products? I'm sure that can't be right, everything has discount at some time or another.

Recursive useless comment.

I never called anyone an idiot, you just pulled that out of thin air; a lot of people have agreed with me, these so-called new features are very gimmicky. Instead of true innovation, we got a smaller battery, a marginally thicker and heavier phone and Apple pulling the wool over everyone's eyes with its outlandish marketing claiming this doesn't matter because the power consumption dropped.

Obviously the 6s is an improvement in real terms but many people don't care for it and, from being in the industry, I know many die-hard Apple fans who feel the same way and stuck with the last generation iPhone 6. I had the 6s, returned it to an Apple Store and told them the same thing - I even had a handful of staff agreeing with me, stating they're skipping this generation.

Any other phone is like a toy after using a 6 Plus, such a fantastic phone even just for the additional battery life.

Heat added as it's the cheapest price and from a quality retailer. Howver, this thing is needlessly big even accounting for a 5.5 inch screen.

where do you apply that discount code? for £50 ???

Good spot & 2 year guarantee by John Lewis is brilliant

+1
Usually it's 'I'd be all over this if it was 128gb', or similar...

I don't think those types ever buy anything!

This is reduced as iPhone 7 is out very soon

Shame its not the 128gb. heated.

I went from a 5 to 6+ on release (upgrade due anyway) & it seemed a tank for a couple of weeks no doubt. Now it feels so natural and smaller phones of any brand now seem like toys in size. I know of others who agree with this and thought the same, hope this helps.

I will buy a iPhone 6s when in 10 years time when my baby is grown up

Who said anything about a 2 year old phone? Maybe you got apple in your eyes and can't read properly.

huge rip off.

That's a lot of mobile for £619, said no one ever.
The next iphone has no 3.5mm head phone jack so maybe if you want a more practical phone then you might want this one...or an S7 edge for £20 extra or whatever.

i eat poo

Recently converted from apple to android, loving android tbf but voted hot as this is an awesome price

Well I thought your earlier post was disrespectful and seemed to be saying that anyone that believes what Apple says about the 6S being an improvement is an idiot so I guess we are even! Not everyone will find changes an actual improvement as people have different needs and uses so I could think it is a big upgrade and you could think it is a minor upgrade and we can both be correct. As I use and value the things that have changed and you don't, but that doesn't mean one of us is correct and one of us is wrong. I was just trying to give the opposite point of view and that I actually found it to be a good upgrade.

£619 for a mobile. Whaat?

Definitely not worth the price, though still voted hot as it's the cheapest :smiley:

Or maybe an Eggs Box £3.60

​ maybe try an orange?

Not that I want to bite - but yes, I do understand the importance, I've had an iPad Air 2 128GB since launch day which has 2GB RAM over a year before your 6s and I have used the 6 and 6s (and Plus variants extensively) and decided the 6 offers the best balance for me - if not only because I can avoid the resource-hogging, battery draining iOS 9 and stay on 8.4 with my 6. The Air 2 will retain more data in operating RAM but not so much that I have a real comparison point or get annoyed on my 6.

Everything you've listed is a minor evolution - not a game changer. Live Photos are such a gimmick - 'hey, would you like a feature that burns through your storage even faster!', it's a photo, if I want a video I use the video function. Same with 4K video recording to be fair, I actually kind of appreciated Apple not jumping on this so soon as good 720p or 1080p is actually perfectly fine for memories without huge storage requirements. And it would be excusable if Apple didn't make the base model 16GB across the board. TouchID is so fast now that you can barely activate the display to view notifications or time without unlocking - this is a step-back for some. I never thought it was slow on the 6.

You like your 6s Plus and that's fine but honestly, telling me (or others) bluntly that I/we don't get it is disrespectful and judging by the number of others who agree with me I'm not exactly alone. I have been there with the 6s and stuck with tried and tested (iOS 8 and late revision hardware) vs. new and gimmicky.

Have Apple figured out a way of sending files yet? I mean without needing a laptop, wifi or using DOUBLE the filesize in data?

Practically every phone for the last SIXTEEN years has been able to do this - have Apple caught up yet?

Using a smartphone 16 hours a day ?!, all for making calls?! If no calls or few calls, I would buy the best small tablet money with 4G can buy and get a cheapo phone.

But the average person would not be looking to upgrade their phone after just one year, why would they want to?

Internally it was completely revamped, just like Apple said it was. I'm not really sure what it was that you expected for just one year on?

In fact, it was classed as such a good upgrade over the previous generation that it managed to get an Anandtech Gold Award, not an easy thing to do.

If you have an iPhone 6 it is probably not worth the upgrade, the A8 CPU still holds it's own nicely.

Whey. Stand down soldier.

Defender of electronics.

Not so sure. If you're using your phone 16 hours a day and a laptop for just an hour in evenings- I'd say rather buy the best phone you can afford

how's the battery like on these? I currently have an xperia z3 and I'm happy with it, comparing z5 with iphones..

Ok, I'll bite. Care to give an actual example of how a 2 year old Lumia beats what was the most powerful phone on the market until the Galaxy S7 shipped?

My wifes 16gb iPhone 4S is still working well and is on the latest version of iOS. Not bad at all for a device released in 2011!

I'm fairly certain no Android phone can claim the same.

It is almost April , few mths away from IP7 , DYOR

You don't seem to understand the importance of double the RAM at all!! I went from a 6+ to 6S+ and the extra RAM makes a noticeable difference. With only 1Gb of RAM the phone had to aggressively close apps and tabs so if you switched between stuff it would have to reload them and lose anything you were in the middle of. With 2Gb of RAM I can switch back and forth between multiple apps without any of them having to be reloaded.

Also it has improved Touch ID which is noticeably faster in unlocking the phone.

It also has Live photos, which some people can write off as gimmicky, but in some situations they can be great like when I was taking photos of cheerleaders outside the stadium for the NFL Wembley games.

It also has 4K video recording which is great to have as I have a 4K TV.

You haven't used both a 6+ and a 6S+ for a long time like I have, so I can assure you that they are some great improvements. There are better improvements between the 6+ to 6S+ than there was when I went from 5S to the 6+, the 6+ was a bigger screen and a new design but not much else really.

Because the general public are stupid.

I was saying that the way you worded your original comment " the only thing they added was 3D Touch " was inaccurate, there was a lot of hardware changes. Would I say it's a worth while jump from the iPhone 6 ? No of course not, but all those changes made the iPhone more competitive against ever more powerful rivals and mean it should be abit more future proof in regards to iOS updates. And I personally can't think of a "s" version that was so drastically better than the original version that made people want to upgrade so soon. I actually like to hate on Apple when I can, but the iPhone 6s is a proper solid platform.

I agree, except with smartphones, there is something else going on which I don't understand. Some people are much more vehement in their condemnation of a rival product than seems reasonable. You don't get this level of tribalism between white goods, cars makes, TVs etc, so I wonder why you get it with smartphones?

if it bends under warranty the will give you a new one no questions asked

Until it bends in half, LOL !!

Also, for those with a BA Executive Club account you can get double Avios at JL currently if you click through from the 'Gate365' affiliate site. That's 4x Avios per £ spent at JL for 'nothing'. :smiley:

Every little helps.

I probably would have one as well if the design wasn't dated (it's so incredibly lazy to rehash the 5s) and it came in a 128GB capacity version.

It's my job to do my research on all phones including this one, whereas you sound as if you've just quoted all that from Apple's own announcement back in September:
- Better cameras: shocker that one, every single generation they improve and frankly they have been more than good enough for a while - I cannot think of anyone who said the iPhone 6 camera wasn't good enough before, even the 5 and 5s have decent imaging
- Better processor: again every generation we see a speed bump and are you telling us that the A8 is outdated now? Was it even slow? Or do you think maybe app and game developers write for the mainstream to generate the best revenue? The A6 and A7 are still perfectly fine.
- Double the RAM: this should've happened a long time ago but dropping so much money on a phone for this is pointless - and again, as above, apps and games are written for the mainstream, which is 1GB RAM
- Stronger casing: this is only because of the massive backlash of the 'bendability' of the non-S devices, Apple making a big deal out of this is pretty much saying they didn't make it strong enough the first time round, it's actually incredibly rude to people who adopted the original 6 devices

The majority of people who took the 6s seemed to be people who were on a 24-month upgrade cycle from the 5s, most people I know who have the 6 now have stuck with it waiting for the 7. Did you really believe Apple when they said 'the only thing that's changed is everything'? By all means get the latest and greatest, but let's not beat about the bush, the 6s is a massive disappointment for those who wanted a genuine reason to upgrade from the 6 - if you are in the market for a new phone, that must be an iPhone and are on a 5s or below, then a 6s is a lot more compelling a choice.

That's savage

So the Nexus can run IOS and integrate neatly with OSX?

Thought not.
Nothing better to do on an Easter Sunday than browse a shopping site and click on links to products you have no interest in?

Lol.

grade A plus is new.not used.just open box

Six hundred and twenty quid.

Lol.

expensive.just paid 300 for my grade A plus samsung s6 edge plus.which is proberly a better phone really

a good deal add a sim only deal to it
winner winner chicken dinner

Boring, off topic, irrelevant android rubbish. Fact is, it's a good deal vs RRP - that's all that matters in relation to it being a good deal. Otherwise, everything posted on here could be combatted by a cheaper, different product. For example, I bet I can find a cheaper car than a BMW, that doesn't mean the BMW isn't a good deal in it's own right. Some people aren't geeks that care about phone specs, they simply want a functional intuitive product - that just works. But anyway f all that what about that new android phone with 64 cores, I can do so much stuff on that and it's only £5! Bloody Apple mugs, grrrr why don't they join us all powerful, enlightened. Just don't talk about all the landfills full of cheap, plastic, android rubbish

How does this get so much heat along with other crapple deals that are so overpriced.... I'm confused

Why have a dog and bark yourself?

Trying to work out which Lumia it could be, the only one I can think of for £200 is the 650? But the 650 has a smaller battery, smaller screen, lower pixel density, less powerful processor, less ram, less memory, smaller main camera sensor, so it can't be that one.

Simple, but effective

Why is he a moron for posting the truth? The Nexus 6p smashes this phone out the park

got my 6 plus 64gb last year new and sealed for £450 from gumtree , 100s for this price that people get as upgrade and sell sealed and new , just make sure you get proof of sale to you so they cant report stolen , then get a £12 sim only . Quids in .

still around £319 over priced.. cold for me

your Android experience is from a TV box?

Bought a 64GB 6s Plus yesterday in John Lewis for this price, Was not expecting the price drop s very happy.

I very much appreciate you having apps on our behalf.

Thanks!!

PS - Don't buy food. I've got some :smiley:

Fantastic offer. Guys at the end of the day this is a phone that rarely falls below RRP, and this phone is a large discount from Apple. You could get the 64GB normal sized one for this, or the 16GB 6S Plus. This is a great deal.

619 for a phone is good? Honor 7 for 175 at Xmas, now that was a true hot deal. BTW I have a recent iMac (would still buy macs rather than pc) iPad 3 (got Galaxy tab S last year on upgrade cycle), iPhone 4s and 5s (replaced with LG G4 and Honor 7) and just bought son fantastic MiPad 2 for £150 for his birthday (better than iPad mini and half price) . I've got shares in Apple and was a big fan, but they've lost me on phones and tablets due to gross over pricing and lack of innovation. Did you see the latest keynote? New iPad £100 more, still overpricing for cheap memory and a major announcement was watch bands for the massively underwhelming iWatch?

iPhones put Lumia out of business so who is junk after that?

I already have all the apps I need ta. I can do without 4000 fart apps.

Heat added for the deal. Personally, I'd rather buy a xiaomi and save the change for an oculus rift. But it's a question of what a person's priorities are. Just seems a bit bonkers to me that folk continually spend a fortune on their phone when it's not required.

Very much looking forward to running all my iOS apps on your £200 year old lumia then......

Thanks!!

​depends on where you live, my nearest Asda is 12 miles away :wink:

Thing is that iPhones hold their value pretty well so once you have made the initial purchase the upgrade price in future years is much less after you have traded in your current model. A £300 android phone will be worth next to nothing in 12 months time!

Hot & Boo.. A week out of the price promise of 28 days!

£619 for a goddamn phone, you people must have lost your goddamn minds!!!!!

My £200 year old lumia beats the 6s in all departments. iPhone is just overpriced junk.

You assume incorrectly.

Or buy a vodafone smart ultra 6 and pocket £519.

I want to change to Samsung but a good deal!! Heat.

Won't need to as I'll have a phone as well?

Look, if you are in the market for this phone, then it's a good deal (heat added as that is the basis of voting).

Is it a good deal to spend £619 on a mobile phone? I just can't see it. There are soooo many good and great android phones around for anything from £120 to £300. I had many iPhones. Yes, iOS is slick, so is Apple's marketing. But parting with the price of a decent PC / laptop for a mobile phone just seems crazy. It's not like it does ANYTHING that other phones don't do. And 80% of people won't ever tap more than 20% of its power playing Candy Crush, watching some media, tweeting etc.

It's just my opinion, but to me it's a sucker who falls for this and parts with £600+ for a mobile.

Good luck fitting a laptop in your pocket >.>

I currently own a banana, and I'm wondering what to go for next. Any advice would be appreciated.

​I assume Sunday trading restrictions will be coming to Scotland soon given the SNPs vote against tbe recent proposed changes got England and Wales!

Or maybe a decent laptop and a decent phone for less than £619..

I'm holding out for a hero.

I know.

It is an England,Wales and N Ireland thing.

But to summarise Asda is open or closed as usual on Easter Sunday.

(other supermarkets are available)

Sorry I though he had a 'new'ish iPhone but he was talking about older models with new ios
Yes I thought that was the industries business model.
To 'cripple' older devices with new software so device upgrades become not a choice but effectively a necessity.
With you mentioning the 8GB storage I heard that its best to keep 10% free so 800MB free. This may be incorrect info though.
I have a 128GB iPhone 6 and just noticed I have 8GB spare: 6% FREE 94% used, so I need to do some 'house keeping' or otherwise based on the 10% free rule I may start to notice a drop performance.

cheers

Yes that's a Scotland thing, ASDA is never open 24hrs on a Sunday in England

Surely a mistake.....?

Same distance as yesterday unless you have moved :wink:

Sorry I'm late to the unlocking debate - Your iphone will unlock though once you finish your contract and get the unlock code? Or is it still SIM locked then??

Currently in Scotland.

That is the 16GB version this is the 64GB

You're from Scotland j assume

made a mistake its 699 on apples site

this is pretty hot then

No, Asda is open today - for 24 hours as is usual.

Your local Asda may well be shut I guess.

Heat!!

He might be referring to when the older 8gb iPhones got that IOS update that basically took up all of the phones memory leaving it useless. Does have a valid point to be fair, the thing is although everyone ones the latest operating software sometimes the hardware just isn't capable of running it. Android manufactures normally drop support for devices after 2-3 years probably due to these restraints and cost of course.

what issues are you having with ios?

£619 for a phone, get real

Battery life is amazing!!! Gives me a full day from 9am to 11pm with heavy use... Bluetooth / Spotify / google maps

I'm holding out for the 7 later this year. Hopefully better, more useful specs!

Only £20 more than the 6s lol

Hey guys, good deal. Heat added. I'm due an upgrade next month, and deliberating whether to get the new S7 or iPhone 6plus, any advice would be appreciated. I currently own an apple and find it easy to use. Many thanks.

It is expensive but in 2 years this will probably be worth £320 at a guess. You can buy a LG G4 for around £250, probably worth £100 in 2 years. So depends if you are happy to pay an extra £150 for 2 years iphone use. Looking at it that way its not such a big difference.

Definatly a good price and its a saving
People are selling this on ebay brand new for £649!

I had 6 and now 6plus. With the case on its a beast in the pocket. Not sure yet on whether will go back to 6 size on the next iteration

£699 elsewhere for this spec. Hot.

Heat added as this is the PLUS model

No, Asda is closed today.

What am bestest iphonr?
