iPad Pro UK iPad Pro Preorder thread

[jamesjingyi]

So it's just gone 1am in the UK and I see no way to preorder yet. Will it be in the morning? Apple has kept really quiet on this release time for the product. I just wanna buy it!!!

Also if you do buy it, tell me about it

 

[LouiseG]

I'm the same! Although still undecided about wifi only or wifi/cellular!!

128gb space grey cellular + pencil here we come.... Belfast Store once stock arrives...

John Lewis aren't doing pre orders. Will have to order or turn up on release day.
Worth ordering from JL thou for the extra warranty

I think it will be 8am.

Therefore, just 9 more minutes to go!

Quick Question - is it better to order the iPad, Pencil and Keyboard as separate orders on the Apple Store. Normally, ordering multiple things together can cause delay as they need another day to merge in transit..

I'm thinking of ordering separately - but am I the only one ?

128GB WiFi only this time - will get pencil and keyboard too.

Hoping 8am release but it usually shows a 'we're getting ready' by now so who knows?!

I'd order with them, for the extra warranty.

However, do they offer Apple's no questions asked return policy?

I absolutely detest dead/stuck pixels, and thoroughly check my devices when I receive them. If there are faulty pixels, the device goes back to Apple and I re-buy/exchange.

Would I have the same option with John Lewis, or would I be (no pun intended) stuck with the device?

 

[TheLondonFella]

Oh, and 126GB silver, for me.

WiFi (this iPad 4 is with cellular, but it's neve been used).

My iPad is an indoor device only, so no cellular required.

I'm also buying the silicone case & Smart Cover, in grey ...

Good question and you're right it's usually better but I think I'll risk ordering it all together as it's more of a soft release.

*deep breath*

Great thought.

However, do you want the messing about?

I waited until almost 7pm last night to receive my order from Foot Locker, and they use UPS the same as Apple.

I'd just order as one.

UK here as well, by the way.

Ordering the 128GB Pro in silver (WiFi) with silicone case & Smart Cover, in grey ...

 

[Loopy65]

1min to 8am and it still just says 'available November' ... Hmmmm

 

[TheLondonFella]

Keep checking.

And use the Apple Store app, which always tends to be best for pre-ordering ...

 

[sparkie1984]

So it's not 8am then

I remember when pre-ordering my iPhone 6.

The handset was in the basket, with day one delivery day.

By the time I'd messed about with cases, it had slipped to a few weeks!

John Lewis have brilliant customer service so I be surprised if they don't replace it

Has that just gone live?

This is such a pain as I'm finding excuses to go to my van to check if it's for sale yet!!

I'm not the only who can't find any option to order then!

 

[Brookzy]

Pencil not quite as bad as the 8 days it said before.

Is the normal store still not up for you guys?!

 

[sparkie1984]

Nope!
