News, specs and information on all the latest mobile phones.

Just as in the US, pre-orders for iPhone 4 in the UK have been arriving a day early, making for some very happy Apple fans.

According to a thread on the MacRumours forum, a user called “Mattwood” claims he has received his handset today. Accompanied by the below photo, we’d be inclined to believe the story.

iPhone 4 Early in the UK

Sceptical forum users have been asking more questions, but he did post a picture of the back of the phone in front of today’s BBC News website in its ad-free UK form, lending more credence to Mattwood’s claim.

If the story’s true, some of those who pre-ordered the phone could get a lovely surprise sometime this afternoon in the form of a brand new iphone 4 16GB or iphone 4 32GB!
