I received a matte black 7 plus 256GB around lunchtime through Spark preorder. No track and trace or notification it was coming.

Anyone have a weird ticking on and off with the lightning to 3.5 dongle. Happens on my iPad with multiple headphones and the lightning EarPods work fine.

Has anyone been delivered a 7 plus? Apparently they are not available now until October at the earliest. 

 

 

Yeah, I got the 7 plus matte black yesterday, ordered off apple.com

It's a bit better on the phone than off here. But I'm surprised it caught half the light it did.

I had a play with the 1x and 2x camera on a plus in store today. The 2x works well, but the digital zoom i found to be quite noisy still.

kiwired23: Has anybody noticed a hiss with their new phone? http://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2016/9/18/12960526/iphone-7-hissing-noises-coil-whine

 

 

 

You used to get that sort of hiss from PC speakers, when the processor was under stress. Not a good look. I wonder how they are going to fix it on existing hardware, whether they will reduce the speed. Not as bad the note 7 problem, but is still a problem

Got $1599 credited to my Spark account today, not sure if its because they're trying to ship my iPhone 7 Plus on 24 month interest free or if that's from the Note 7 return.

I would say it's from the Note 7. The Note 7 has/had an RRP of $1,599 and the iPhone 7 Plus has an RRP of $1,629.

Another day with no Phone after ordering from Spark

 

First it was shipping Thursday, then the told me Friday, then Friday I was advised it would ship today.. and Today they can't even tell me whats going on or when it might be shipped - Pretty disappointing experience so far.

Apple Store support told me most of their staff who've ordered are also still waiting for theirs.
