People are already lining up for the iPhone 6

It turns out that some people are already lining up for the iPhone six ahead of its impending announcement on the 9th of September. We normally see people forming lines outside Apple's stores a few days before release, rather than weeks.

These people aren't all completely crazy though, the first couple were paid $1250 to reserve two spots in line while a third person has made around $7000 reserving spots in line in the past.

iPhone 6 line

Apple's iPhone reveal will take place next Tuesday, after that, it could be a two week wait before the handsets are available at retail. However, its safe to assume that most of the people willing to wait that long in line are being compensated fairly well.

The iPhone 6 will feature a 4.7 Inch screen and will launch alongside iOS 8. There are plenty of leaks around showing off the device ahead of time, we even managed to nab one ourselves, which you can see, HERE.

KitGuru Says: I don't think I would want to sleep outside of an Apple store for one night let alone a couple of weeks just for a phone. Is there anything that you guys would camp out for? Doesn't necessarily have to be a phone…

  1. Please correct the title “Idiots are already lining up for iPhone 6”

  2. I guess that camping out for a few days for a $7000 paycheck wouldn’t be that bad.

  3. Maybe they get payed from Apple either ….. weird people. Just for a ******* phone. Wow. Really some big idiots !

  4. Fucking pathetic…

  5. I would camp outside a store for absolutely nothing (mostly because its illegal here (and all the interesting stores are in a locked down hub of stores…)). Though, I would camp outside a store if I got 7000 euro for it, and then leave right before the store opens 😛 Mueahehehehe

  6. I don’t see what is so wrong about waiting for the phone to come out properly when it does, really stupid and sad to see people wait in lines day/weeks for a simple device. I would only wait if I get paid at least 10K for reserving a spot.

  7. iSheep gather as they await their long dead shepherd Steve Jobs to guide them to emptying their bank accounts.

  8. horrible how dumb they are, for a fucking phone!

  9. I recently got a 4S, im happy with it. Not a big fan of apple it was just the best option for first smartphone…that and it was preowned lol

  10. Handing over wads of cash for a government issue tracking device.
    I’ve had earphones and they work just fine.
