Hoping to pick up a matte black one on Friday. Have been using a Samsung S7 Edge but I can't bare it anymore. I loved it at first but now I just don't like anything about it. Don't really care about the color on the back just want black bezels on the front. So silver or grey would work. Heard the jet black scratches so it wouldn't be my first choice anyway. If Iam forced to buy one that has white bezels on the front I will go with rose gold just because. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered my JetBlack Plus 128GB on October 14th at 00:01am and made a down payment of 5,350 baht. Happy to collect it this Friday at True shop.

anotheruser Posted October 19, 2016 Author Share Posted October 19, 2016 I am on prepaid plan. I will go to Central Rama 9 around 10 am Friday. Have a phone already so not a disaster if I can't get one. Not sure there will be a huge rush on these but Apple has had terrible problems with production and supply has been limited in other parts of the world. Would wait until next years release but just can't stand what I am currently using. Last year it was pretty easy to find on launch day but color was difficult. 16GB was available everywhere. I assume 32GB will be like that this year. I would stretch and get a 256GB if I had to but can't imagine why I would ever need that much storage on a phone. Jet black from what I am reading has too many problems with the finish. Reports other then scratching are saying the lettering peels off with certain protectors. 30% of these phones are also defective and have to be scrapped or retooled. So it just isn't for me.

The rush will be on to get the black models with 128 GB memory. Just out of curiosity, are iPhones usually cheaper in the UK than Thailand? I have a friend in England right now and may have him pick me one up there if it is cheaper. Did you ever find out of they are cheaper ??? as I am heading to London soon for a few days.... thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anotheruser Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 Mine was around 35,000 baht for 128GB bought in Bangkok. My friend looked in England and said it was around 825 pounds so seems around the same. Remember warranty issues are only resolved in the country the phone is bought in officially by apple.Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SooKee Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 32gb is £599 in the UK and 26,500 here. Used to be a bit cheaper here, doubtless because of the VAT. But since the £ nosedived everything got about 20% more expensive here if you have to convert £ to buy it. Now it's cheaper to buy in the UK.

anotheruser Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 Not sure what model you are comparing but the 7 plus is 819 on apple U.K. Website. Making it 35,094 baht.

Either way, whichever model, the price difference isn't worth worrying about for Brits at least whereas it used to be around £100 cheaper here.

Cynical Sailor Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I've had an iPhone 6 since it was released 2 years ago. I didn't upgrade for two reasons. Firstly, there were no vast improvements on the 7. Secondly, next year is the 10th anniversary of the iPhone and rumours abound that there will be some significant improvements. Given the 6 works just fine I'll hold off for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SooKee Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Same here. Didn't feel the iPhone 6s (a), sorry, 7, was worth changing for. Just might have to change the battery. In all honesty I'd be happier with a thicker phone that could go two days without charge. Sent using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely otherwise they'll be falling out of ears and getting lost in no time being such as small size? Seriously, how can Apple think they can banish the 3.5mm audio jack like they did the floppy drive? Unlike some tech, the 3.5mm audio jack still serves a useful purpose.

Given the 6 works just fine I'll hold off for now. I just upgraded from a 6 and I'm enjoying the much improved camera and increase in processing speed and RAM. Battery life is also massively improved. I can now actually use it all day and not need to charge it at work. The biggest improvement is probably the device being waterproof although I'm still very careful with it. You could wait next year for what could be an incremental 7S update or Apple could take it up a few notches. It's like any tech you can either wait a year for something better or buy what's there today. Overall I'm quite happy with the iOS 10 and the new hardware features. Not liking the lack of 3.5mm jack but hey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watcharacters Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 The Missus came home yesterday after school and showed me a video posted on Line showing one of her classmates drenching an iPhone7 under a hose bib. The video was only 11 seconds but he did drench it well. He then turned to the Missus and challenged her to do the same with her phone. That's extreme to say the least. I'd leave testing to testing companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crackhouseparty Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 I've recently upgraded to the 7 Plus 128GB and also purchased the Belkin RockStar dongle. No complaints and the battery now lasts me all day. I will eventually purchase Bluetooth wireless earpods but nothing catching my eye at present.

Well you did say earlier in the thread that you are "rocking an iPhone 4 and it works brilliantly" and also that you don't use apps. Given that, it doesn't really matter about speaker grills or anything else that Apple comes out with. Just stick with your iPhone 4 and be happy.

SooKee Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 My 6 is still going ok so that'll do me until next year. Hopefully the iPhone 8 (I think they plan to jump to 10) will be something a bit special. If not, I'll consider a Google Pixel. Was going to pull the trigger on a set of AirPods too until they were embarrassingly delayed (how NOT to handle a product launch) but think I'll hold off even when they do get released to see whether I jump ship or not.

crackhouseparty Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 With respect, I know dozens of people like you, JHolmesJR. Always talking about waiting until the next version and then nothing happens and then more talk about waiting for the following version. I always upgrade and sell my in-hand iPhone for top dollar, otherwise I'd be like you - waiting forever - which you've been doing for years as your iPhone 4 purchase suggests. Up to you, but you'll never have anything nice and up to date with that philosophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
