Apple Discussion Thread - iPad Air 2, iMac 5K Retina, OS X 10.10 out

Mine had the same problem but they're replacing it for free even if it's out of warranty.

Yeah, I'm eligible for the Sleep/Wake replacement scheme and the battery replacement scheme.

I'll probably try and get both fixed before selling it.

Pretty impressed by the new iPhone even though I'm only getting a new phone next year.

I'm getting a 16GB 4.7" model in Gold. Pre-ordering on Friday! Pretty exciting!

 

QUESTION: Does Apple take your money when you send the pre-order?

[RAMROD 96,176]

I love how I live in USA at time like these.

I mean, for 128GB type

It cost SG $1, 449 (US $1,148) in Singapore

In Hong Kong, it cost HK $8,008 (US $1,033)

Where as in USA only $949 for unlocked ones, or only $449-$500 with 2 years contract.

I can't get over buying a 5s.

 

That was the stupidest thing I have ever done.

 

I could be owning an iPhone 6+

 

Now I have to spend years saving my money for an iPhone 10 or whatever.

 

My only option is selling my iPhone 5s and kind of my iPad mini. 

 

Anyone know how much I could get for selling them? 

 

First world problems = not having the most updated gadget.

I think about $350-$400 for a 16GB 5S. No idea about the mini, but you should check ebay.

Usually they will hold the money on your account - so if you're using a debit card, your online banking would say $XXX.00 (depending on model) less available to spend but the money remains in your account.

Then the money is taken when the phone is shipped.

The holding of the money allows Apple to ensure you have the amount needed to covert the cost, and also allows them to not have to refund it should you end up cancelling the order.

I hope that makes sense.

That actually made so much sense! Thanks so much!

I am not getting that new phone any time soon, I find it INSANE how huge they're making these phones! My iPhone 5C is already big enough.

Thanks

I don't get the "The iPhone 5c is now free on contract" line. Like, if you go on contract the phone is yours for free?

If you want to get a 2 year contract, you don't have to pay to get the phone, it's "free".

as an example, if you want a 2 year contract with the iphone 6, you have to pay 200$ to "start" your contract.

BUT if you choose the 5C and after one year of your 2 years contract you decide that you want another phone, you still have to pay what's left of it. it's just "free" because when you get it you dont have to pay anything, but it's not really free in the end.

i hope you understand?
