Nope not interested, stopped wearing a watch years ago, can get the time from my phone. and it really isn't too much trouble to get my phone from my pocket to read a text.
Plus got to say it's not a nice looking watch really and the phone looks bit like a phone as expected. |

"Thought more people would seem impressed tbh! Think it's literally just me haha and maybe one or 2 others  "
don't worry... when all of the "1st reviews" of the phones come out tomorrow i am sure views will start to change....
well at least I know what I am getting for myself as a birthday pressie now... 64 or 128.... I had a 32 and almost used up all the space on that... lol
I can't see the point of a 16gb iphone 6 because with apps and games being so big file size wise... you would fill it straight away.... |

Will get my pre ordered delivered to my door the day of release, I get to pre order 2/3 hours earlier as I'm apple developer registered
I will order the 6 plus have it a week then send it back, do this every year so I can play, then I wait till January when it's jailbroken and people start selling them for reasonable money instead of there big Christmas mark up! |

Not a lot of love for iPhones here it seems, I think they look good tho I think I will go for the standard 6 and not the plus. Also the watch looks tidy too but I'd have to see how much it is. I'm thinking it's going to be about £300 an that's too dear |

No, never. I don't even have itunes on my PC. I will not use anything from Apple. I don't trust them and they ARE overpriced and overhyped.
Do you really need one, or do you just want one to show it off. Because it isn't impressing anyone. It's not big and it's not clever. |

I'm a fan of Apple but I guess you're either in one camp or the other when it comes to tech.
Can't afford to buy one now so will wait for an upgrade next year ~ mind u the 7 will probably be due out then. |

Steve Jobs – “No One Is Going To Buy A Big Phone” He didn't want bigger than 3.5 inches he was adamant. I guess its the rise in bigger pockets that has created bigger communicators to go in them.  |

Nope. Apple products are too restrictive when it comes to software and other accessories - and they're overpriced.
I'll stick with my Samsung Galaxy S2 running Android thanks |

I sweated my iPhone 3G until it broke, only then upgrading to a 5C. I'll probably keep this until it breaks too, revert to a cheaper sim only when contract is up.
Phone, Internet, camera. That's all I need. All work perfectly well on what I've got |

I'll be getting a 6 and giving my 5 to Fox.
No other reason than I want one and I can!
Gotta love the iPhone/android threads though. Almost seems like life and death to some. It's a bloody phone. You don't see the same vitriol when people talk about shoes, handbags, holidays or (in general!) cars!
Football maybe. Or Scottish Independance!

It is a strange one. It baffles me to be honest. If people can show that much rage about a communication defice how angry will they get over something important. |

See what's going on when I upgrade next. Probably stick with apple, I've bought a lot of music on iTunes!
Watch though - no, I know a guy who wears a very similar watch at the minute, it's just a bit too tech geeky for me, no real need to it. |

Had an Iphone 4 for ages and got on great with it. The took the plunge and went for the Galaxy S3. Was initially very impressed with the Android system even though the S3 felt a bit cheap. Not soon after getting it the screen went blank in cold conditions. Sent it in for repair and still the same problem. Got the S4, again felt cheap but a slick enough phone with a great camera. However, less than a year in, the volume button has mind of it's own and the phone locks up on some phone calls. Apparently, the S5 can be a bit laggy too and, again, feels cheap. Think I'll go back to Apple for the same reason I went from PC to MAC. I love the MAC, it's a fluid, great user experience and I know it will 'just work' for some considerable time to come. A mate of mine has a Mac Book that's years old and it runs fine. Every windows based PC I have ever had starts ok, then gets slower and slower then ends up in a skip! So yes, I'll give the Iphone 6 a go I think. If that makes me a 'sheep' or a 'fanboy' so be it. |

I definitely don't want to be an apple whore.
You can see what's going to happen soon too, speciality muggings for the watch. Mind you, those peeps probably live in 'gated' communities - an even bigger yuck. |

The iphone 6 an iwatch will be around double the price here as it will be in the USA. Another Apple rip-off, and a great way to make yourself a target for muggers |

Actually the iPhone itself can be automatically rendered useless and can be wiped remotely using the "find my iPhone" app ( still don't know why it doesn't come pre built in!)
Not interested in the watch at all
Just been given an upgrade price for an iPhone 6 plus 64gb on the tariff I am on now and have to say I am really really tempted |

I phones are for sheep..... Baaaaaah!
Lol. (Playful banter)
There are really good alternatives out there on the market that do exactly the same as the iphone and more. There is more accessories that will be available to u compared to the premium price u have to pay apple for theirs. Shop around.

I have a iPhone 5s at the moment. I want to see the iPhone 6 in the shop first, can't decide on the 6 or the 6 plus, will the 6 plus feel too big?
Not sure about the watch, its a cool fashion accessory, but I haven't worn a watch in years, will have a think about the watch |
