Millions of people were able to get their hands on one of the new iPhones last week, and the gradual global rollout continued today with 20 more countries – one of which was the Netherlands. A crew from local TV network SBS6 was filming the launch outside the Amsterdam Apple Store, when a chap on a scooter zooms past and grabs an ‘iPhone’ from a guy’s hand during his interview.

Amazon’s Fire Phone may well already have been on sale in the US since July, but on Tuesday, it’s going on sale in the UK too, so here’s everything you need to know about what has changed since our original review went up.
