I was looking at the pricing for the new phone and read that we are getting hit with a brexit increase of £60. I'd like to piont out that the iPhone 7 costs £35 more in Germany.

iPhone 7 128GB costs £699.
iPhone 7 128GB costs €869.

So that makes the UK cheaper for the iPhone 7 ???

I am thinking about the new iPhone as my sons 5s needs repairing and I have the iPhone 6, 64GB. Its gonna cost me about £350 for a replacement phone for him, so I give him mine and buy a new one for myself.

I always said I'd go from 6 to 8. At these prices (not related to any EU decision), it might be 6>9. Maybe a Watch S2 to sate my irrational tech wants. I'll report back of that happens.

The £60 hike is putting me off a little but I do have a £50 off voucher for Very and you get 12 month interest free credit.

I already have an iPhone 6s so I don't need to upgrade, maybe not for another 2 or 3 years or more. But, since Apple has already lowered the price, my younger son did go get a new 128 GB iPhone 6s today to replace his iPhone 4s.

I do need a new phone; my present one is a 3s - which no longer works in Italy!!

But this update to the iPhone is pretty

I have an iphone 3, my helpful niece upgraded it yesterday to iso 6 so I could get instant messaging ( or something ) that I already had.

Thanks very much, now I have no camera on my phone, but at least bluetooth works

I may get an iphone SE, but don't have any inclination for a 7 or 8.

I can upgrade in Feb next year, but to be honest, I don't see the benefit at the moment. I think as I opted for a 64GB 6s I'm quite satisfied with my iPhone: it holds everything I need it to plus more, and with it now running iOS 10 it feels more than sufficient.

I'm going to let my contract expire and go for a SIM only contract and enjoy a drop in price each month.

There seems to be a lot of people underwhelmed with the 7: its a great phone no question, but for most there don't seem to be enough improvements to warrant an upgrade. Plus the tariffs will be extortionate. The big plus is the fact the 16GB model has gone, with entry level at 32GB. Finally!

You can have an EE contract phone unlocked after 6 months of your contract. You still have to pay the rest of the contract though even if you do put another network SIM in it..

I'm never wrong, I'm just less right on occasions.

Iirc EE only let the original purchaser unlock the phone so if you buy an iPhone 2nd hand you'll be in trouble trying to get it unlocked.

I have upgraded to the 7 128GB from a 5s. The 32GB was getting a bit small and the 7 is loads faster, has a much better camera than the 5s
