Did anyone pre-order theirs?

I'm going to wait and see how real usage reviews are, plus I like the smaller form factor of my 5s.

One nitpick that is weird for Apple is the protruding camera. I understand they were trying to make it thin, but having that part sticks out means the phone won't lay flat on a table unless you have a case on it. A bit strange that Cupertino's design team allowed that. It would have been okay if it had mechanical zoom so it moved in and out and when in normal focus it was flush... but that outcrop is unlike them.

I almost did, but my wife has to check with the carrier to make sure we get the monthly % corporate discount and to see that our unlimited data plan is not touched.

i have a 21% discount on my att account from my old professional services firm that i have not been at for 8 years. never lost the discount while upgrading or anything.

I just want to be cautious, one of my friend lost the unlimited plan when they lost the phone and replaced it through insurance. (It shouldn't happen, but you never know)
 
I pre-ordered mine for 9/19 delivery. 6 Plus 64GB silver.

Apple's site was down, so I tried their Apple Store app, it wasn't able to check ATT's eligibility so it gave me a reservation code, they emailed me a link, I went through the steps and that's it.  I have another reservation code for my other upgrade which I'm undecided on as my 5S will go to my wife (she currently has a 3GS  ;D).

I wonder if I can transfer my reservation code to another person...  ???

when i ordered through the ATT site it shows you what plan you have and is carrying over to your new phone. there is also a "change" button to allow you to change your plan.
 
Pre-ordered through Verizon--no problems for two 64GB plus models. Should arrive on the 19th. My feet are so happy to not stand in line again  :)

I'm surprised ps9 didn't post all the good deal with iPhone 6 already.

Did you get an email confirmation from ATT saying that they expect to ship the phone in 14-21 days?  I want my phone by next Friday.  haha

Moving from a 4 to a 6 Plus will shock her... even to a 6 may be a bit jolting.

Just do the regular 6 64gb because that's the same price as the 6 plus 16gb.

Their memory pricing is stupid... they should have started at 32gb... 16gb is nothing on a phone that has no expandable memory.
Click to expand...

16gb is doable, just have to be efficient.  Stream music instead of download, rip videos and pics to laptop right away, forget gaming, delete old texts from 3 years ago....

Have your phone sync photos automatically to the cloud. Easy way to get them to your laptop.

Apple is still letting you pre-order the iPhone 6 (non-plus) for store pickup on Fri 9/19. No signature required. They'll still hold it for you even if you get there a day late on Saturday :)
 
wondering if I should wait it out.. let all the kinks get worked out first.

Add-on to AT&T

AT&T is also pushing its trade-in pricing for existing models of the iPhone. An iPhone 5S starts at $300 in trade-in credit, while you?ll get at least $200 in trade-in credit for iPhone 4, 4S, 5 and 5C.

Big difference between the iPhone and Android is that Android is very customizable. I'd had the following features from their list on my android for years:

Do Not Disturb (much more powerful than the iPhones)
Phone Rotation Lock Quick Access
