Well, I am now in possession of this weeks latest must-have. A few nice features on it and nice and light but at the end of the day it's just a phone I suppose. At least I can see things more clearly on it now due to the increase in size. I need to get a better case for it as what I am missing at the moment is my old iPhone 5 case as it was my wallet that held my cards. The only comment from my wife (who is totally underwhelmed) was "YOU PAID HOW MUCH FOR THAT"? I think maybe some shoes, bags and frocks are going to be turning up soon.

You don't need shoes, Handbags and Frocks as accessories to the iPhone, let the wife have them, it will just wind her up more if you have them and the phone also

I got the 6, not the handbag friendly 6 plus. Kindly save those comments for the Doctor!

Did I mention the Lumia 930...? Oh, yeah, I did. So I'll mention it again.

Windows Phone. I know it doesn't have Ap*le on it but it's fookin' good, all the same.  ...

An update: I have received today by email an invoice from Apple, advising me that they have debited my card £539 for the additional iphone that was shipped in error.

Having spoken to a very nice man in Ireland regarding how this happened, they have not only refunded me and are sending UPS in to collect it tomorrow, they have credited my iTunes Account with £25 as a gesture of goodwill. So honesty does pay after all!

The only explanation that they could offer was that something had gone wrong with the Apple Store software, and this handset was actually somebody else's order....bit of a worry eh?!  Foraging near Gaydon....

Ah, but mine is mine right now. Your 6 plus will only become yours 128 months or so after you get it. By which time everyone else will have iPhone 36 or 36 plus!

Apparently, the 6 Plus comes with a hidden flexible screen......

"claiming the frame bends if the device is left in pockets for an extended period of time"

It's super slim and made of aluminum. What did they think would happen? It will be fine in a pocket (not a tight pocket) while strolling along etc. but if you sit down and thereby tighten said pocket around the device, the bend is bound to happen.

Just be more sensible about it.  LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

Presumably this is newsworthy because earlier incarnations of iPhone do not bend in this way. One could infer that corners have been cut for iPhone 6? Something has clearly changed with iPhone 6 since no reports of bending iPhones were seen for iPhones 1-5 ??? ...

^ It's not corners, it's physics. Think about it, 5.5 inch screen contained within a large super slim piece of aluminium. It bends when pressured? Really? What about glass? Does that smash? Does fire burn?

Jeez, owners just need to be more careful and if they don't want to be careful then try the 6 or buy a Samsung S5 which has survived a nuclear blast. LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

Don't remember seeing any other stories about manbag size phones from other manufacturers bending. Like I said earlier, fine in a ladies handbag......

Nothing been made as slim as the 6 plus that's why Like I said earlier, top of the range  LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

So THAT'S what's changed... it's too slim to be durable? ...

^ Pretty much. But then the story said tight pockets for prolonged periods. Avoid that and no probs  LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby
