I presume Apple are not offering us the new iPhone every year plan they offer in the US and UK?

I still think the iPhone SE is the best and most practical phone they have built....for me anyway  :P

 

 

Except is only comes in 16/64GB, if they moved to a 32GB base I think they would fly out the door a whole lot quicker....

I thought we could preorder the iphone 7 today?

 

I always buy outright from Apple.co.nz. Maybe when it says preorder from the 9th it means US timezones?

yep, it's tonight.

 

 

 

buy iphone outright from Apple,

 

get Skinny Direct for $30//30 days.

 

seems like a no brainer if you can afford the up front cost.

 

 

 

3GB, unlimited sms and voice.  $1199 for entry level iphone 7 up front and $30 per 30 days.  total over 24 months = ~$1950  (it's every 30 days, so over 24 months years you need to buy 25 packs, not 24)

 

 

 

 Any better deals than that out there?   Looks like $30 pay monthly on 2Degrees gets you only 1GB, albeit with carryover (which I would never use, since I use more than 1GB every single month)

 

(not worried about the voice and SMS tbh,  don't need more than 200mins and 100 sms per month really)

Thanks for the Tip - switching to skinny direct is going to save me about $30 a month.

I was hoping they would redesign the 'pencil' - I'm not impressed by the current version.

Nope, USA/UK/China got that deal... just wondering how it'd go if I signed up online and used my OneSmart for payment and YouShop for redirecting the delivery... surely no issues with a non removeable battery?

The usual VF amateur hour is here. Good to know some things never change.
