SoApple shares have lost £12 Billion Due to the almighty cockup on the software for the iPhone 6.

Maybe it's just my sense of humour, but that's not even funny - in fact, it's just plain stupid.

Now, if you were to replace the Nokia with the new Motorolla phone that the guy couldn't bend in the video, yes, it would be amusing.

A week with my iPhone 6 and I'm finding it a bit too big. I think the 5 is a perfect size for a mobile phone silly

Battery life is probably the same as the 5.
Camera is a lot better.
Doesn't feel that much faster.
Feels lighter however.
Same iOS.

If you took me back to last Thursday I probably would not have bought the 6.

Hardly surprising. He was most likely in charge for all the releases inbetween as well, that all went ok.

Wait, so the SIM from my iPhone 4S won't fit in a 6?
6 is a nano. 4s micro. Love Apple...
Cheers Luke. Think i'll stick with my 4S then.
you can order a new SIM from your provider, or trim the micro to nano size I think. Trimmers available on eBay for about a quid.
You can do it with scissors, it takes about 1 minute!

This is the template I've used many times: http://www.appletips.nl/wp-content/uploads/downloa...
Cheers for that!
I'm going to assume you're thanking me, as clearly only a lunatic would try and cut a SIM card with scissors when templates cutters are so easily available and would arrive before the handset anyway. So, you're welcome.

I know for a fact that you can run a 3310 over and it'll survive. Don't ask me how I know paperbag

yes

I've had one from this place: dx.com (delivery is slow though), looks like a stapler and works like a charm. Have used it dozens of times without fault. I wouldn't risk going at it with scissors!

Has a play around with an iPhone 6 on Wednesday and have just setup a 6+ for someone in the office.

Not sure what the fuss was about. I think the 6+ is a great size and will most likely order one once the IOS bugs have been ironed out in a couple of weeks.

It's lighter than I thought it would be and the screen size is refreshing. Much better than the 5S screen I think.

Well it's actually easy with scissors so long as you know what it should look like - where the edges need to be, in other words.

Even worse is they sent it as one email with 136 email addresses in the To field. I would be complaining to the Information Commissioner if I was on the list.

That's how they fix the bent iPhone 6+'s as well, hehehehe.

Or an LG G Flex, they come deliberately pre-bent.
