Why can't we pre-order the Iphone 7 today?

You can order from Apple today but why not Vodafone? I remember 2 years ago you could order from VF the same day as apple.

Hi

appreciate your keen. 

Vodafone wouldn't comment on their decisions concerning this I'm afraid. 

You can register here http://www.vodafone.co.uk/shop/coming-soon/register-interest/index.htm

@loyalman At the moment you are unable to order from Apple until the page goes lives later today. So maybe Vodafone are waiting for Apple to go live before publishing their order page.

Yes thank you but now says they are 'tweaking' the site. It also won't let you do it over the phone nor via My Vodafone. Seems strange. Did you order?

[63johnw]

No. I am android at the minute, never had an iPhone !

[loyalman]

Ahh ok. 

Well I can recommend but also see very good alternatives but I have all apple devices so like to keep that infrastructure.

Managed to speak to someone and ordered a iPhone 7 plus - 256GB in Jet Black. Delivered a week today.

Nice choice of iPhone  

I was interested in the jet black but was a little put off by Apples disclaimer that it is prone to micro scratches. 

Yes there are very good alternatives out there. 

I use the iPhone 6 Plus along with iPad Air and MacBook Air and iPods, but I do not consider myself caught up in the much fabled Apple Eco-System. so this time around I think I'll be taking some time away from iPhones. 

Hope all goes to plan with your order.
