I tried to get both bits in. But was referring to the bottom bit. As highlighted here.

Yeah I think I’m going to go for that offer. I’d much rather get AppleCare plus than any other mobile insurance. I know it doesn’t cover loss or theft but my concern is more dropping it and smashing the screen.

Does this guy spend like 1000 hours in the gym just so he can break phones?

Three 5g seems to be far more widespread in London than their coverage map suggests. And pretty decent speed too!

Would make up for their abysmal 4g speeds then.
In belfast i be lucky to get 2mb on their 4g. Its a good thing theyre so cheap
Edit: talking about 3 here incase its not obvious

Yeah, I’ve always found 4g pretty dreadful on 3, and usually have it switched off. Today’s 5g tests have given me a bit of hope, but will be interesting to see what it’s like in other parts of the city.

I assume by “true unlimited plan for 5G” you mean a FUP of 600GB a month?
Their terms say that they have the right to deprioritise your traffic or move you to a business plan, not that they’ll directly cut you off so, you can go over it and I’d guess that going over occasionally wouldn’t yield much in the way of any complaining from EE, just consistent usage over and above is frowned upon.
For completeness, the FUP on their business unlimited is 1000GB and if you go over that, they aim to move you to a “more appropriate plan”. Whatever that means.
Okay I finally got mine and set it up. Some random thoughts:
-
the design looks nice but I find the squared edges more difficult to hold than my samsung. Maybe I’ll get used to it.
-
The CE logo on the product red is all but invisible
-
The product red doesn’t look peach at all to me, it looks red
-
I think it looks better in the silicon case (also product red).
-
The camera is frankly incredible
-
I’m getting 150mbs / 20mb on 5g at home on Three, like I’m outside of the official 5g area

moving from android to iOS is an absolute pain

No the operating system is fine, already have an ipad and can use it.
It’s the physical act of moving that’s the problem. Like trying to transfer whatsapp messages. Or worse, Grindr messages which is literally impossible 
all that beloved history…

Aren’t WhatsApp and Grindr messages in the cloud?

Thankfully my Grindr days are well over too, and that flaw sounds really really bad. Didn’t realise WhatsApp didn’t have its own cloud back ups
Unfortunately WhatsApp don’t allow cross platform transfers.
Unless you count “export to email” as an option

When I went the other way a few years ago there was a way of extracting your messages from an icloud backup. You had to backup the phone to a computer and not encrypt it or something. Surprised there isn’t the option in reverse.
I moved from Three because speeds were so so slow I was having to turn airplane mode on and off to get data moving in central London. Unlimited data at £11 a month sure, but no speeds.
Now on EE and I get 30-40 MB/s usually and though I pay more and I despise EE customer service I at least get… well, service.
Also: equally glad I am no longer bothering with Grindr… I wouldn’t have imagined it was very good at transferring things via the cloud!

I’d love to get rid of WhatsApp but sadly all my family and friends who are non iOS users use it. Annoys me

Same. I am moving my iOS friends over to iMessage though.
I say moving… just making them message me on there instead.

Have you tried turning 4G off. It worked for me when I was with Three and the speed difference was imperceptible in London.
Android user here (we have an iPad pro as well but the family share it so I never see it)
I would love this and would actually use it but unfortunately we can’t.
I use a mixture of telegram, signal and unfortunately WhatsApp. Not messenger thankfully but if I could use iMessage I would.
