iPad Pro [UK] iPad 2024 Order Thread

[Rubes-]

Decided to switch to store pickup in the end so missing out on the PFS excitement. Happy enough with my QR code though!

Have also gone for in-store pickup, presumably QR code arrives soon after the 'processing your order' email?

If you view your order from the Apple Store app it should allow you to add it to Wallet now

Ordered a 512GB space black Pro. We'll see about the keyboard. Unless WWDC gives me a bit more reason, I'm inclined to keep it as a - you know, old school - tablet, and leave the physical keyboard for my Mac.

The last year or so I've found my iPad sits docked on its (plugged in and charging) Magic Keyboard, only to be ripped off and used hand held 99% of the time. Until I see evidence otherwise I'll assume things are staying that way, so I don't need that keyboard (sexy as it looks).

issues with payment. Paid yesterday with apple pay connected to my main account and made sure there was money in the account. Tried again with my actual debit card and it got rejected - answered a text from the bank, retried - no good. Tried again and authorised through the app - still failed.

Now on hold..

sorted. Even got a failure on the phone and had to approve again on text

Was told on the phone it’s a Apple Pay issue, Manual payment taken over the phone like the other poster and all sorted now

Decided to order

13 inch space black 512GB

 

[AVBeatMan]

How many of you guys buying the Magic Keyboard? I can't decide. Have my MacBook Pro for typing but I suppose the MKB would be nice?

Great choice!
Nice having time to think and still get a launch day allocation.

Just ordered now, for pickup at a local non Apple Store. We’ll see if I love it enough to keep it.
I have around 7 days before I need to return it and coincidentally before my next flight out the country

Indeed

The lighter device is what made me stick with bigger model.

 

[The Game 161]

Smart Folio and Apple pencil pro also ordered

 

[varun14]

Same. Still not getting them until the 15th though 😛

Ooooo mine has too! Will probably stay like this until Monday now.

 

[gadget123]

Anybody recommend a cheap leather folio case most stuff on Amazon seems to fit the old models?

I'm getting one because I'm planning on buying an iPad as a laptop replacement, but I wouldn't be surprised if I gravitate to using it undocked and the keyboard just gets put to one side overtime

Did Very have any 11 inch 256GB and sold out already?

Or did they not stock them to begin with?

When do we anticipate carriers having them for sale - Friday? Or next week when they are readily available?

I did see they had 256GB when I looked for 11 inch

 

[madmads]

Deleted because nothing I wrote made any sense! 🤣

 

[AVBeatMan]

Also; What about screen protectors? I know some use them, others don't. I've had Paperlike on mine before but not sure this time? Do you guys use them?

 

[wba1990]

Anyone see if very had the 11 inch in, and just sold out, or only had the 13?

As they’ve only got the 13 inch now….. typical!

EDITED - they’ve got an 11 in a 512gb, but I don’t need that much. Will monitor

This link seems to show all stock: https://www.very.co.uk/e/q/ipad-2024.end?_requestid=282389

Order iPad Pro 11 inch. It took me while to decide between Air and Pro. In end picked Pro and treat myself since I rarely get top of line of Apple, normally middle range.

For me, I will get Apple care and that’ll do for me. Want to keep the OLED as unobstructed as possible 😂
