Other UK iPhone 12/12 Pro/12 Pro Max (2020) Orders and Dispatch Thread

Yep, but it's the best I've got at home when inside. EE are better then O2. Will come down to do I get a signal at work on EE because I don't get a signal at all on O2 unless I wave my phone by the window.



Business and Primary. They are labels added so you can tell the Sim's apart, I assume more helpful if you have two lines on one network.

O2 do eSIMs now or did you get an EE eSIM?

I was already on O2 with an eSim. So I've just added an EE physical PAYG sim.

Not sure many people know this but for anyone who is expecting delivery by DPD should download their app and register using your delivery address. From then on as soon as they receive your phone it’ll notify you via the app way before any of the carriers do. It’s worked for me every time.

One of the best features which gives DPD the edge compared to the rest.
I do not even need to check tracking notification email leave alone copy/paste the tracking number and search.

Your mobile number acts as ID and used for delivery package available to you by app notification is quite intuitive. There may be GDPR boundary and such but I happily give my consent them to use for this feature.

I’ve never had a phone with sides which are mirrors, either, so I also wouldn’t know.

Nor do I want one. 😉 In all seriousness, I am really concerned the aesthetic is not going to suit me and I will have to exchange mine for a regular 12. First world problems, I know.

I am thinking the same. Love the matte back of the 12Pro, but worried that the shiny sides might be a bit bling. Will see when I get into store on Saturday morning.

Is it just a rumour the hands on vids will come tomorrow?

When using the dual sim can you see which line is calling easy enough?

No idea. I've not had anyone call me since adding a 2nd line

Ah, didn't know they had eSIMs; cool!

The embargo lifts tomorrow so I assume we will get a lot of videos from reviewers who will probably already have filmed/edited their videos.

Yes, the label shows up.

Thanks, Going to have a look around for the cheapest e-sim in that case.

Does anyone know who O2 use for delivery?

They used to use DHL, not sure about now though

My AO order says this!!! Just checked now!!!


Your order AOL********* will be there on:

October 23rd

Current status: The courier has received your order

Same here... and DPD too. Very happy with that, considering Apple gave me a 2nd-9th delivery estimate.

Damn I was hoping it would be DPD

I managed to get the 64gb iphone 12 blue on preorder day at 13:04, was very happy. I'm on preparing to ship, but being a newbie to these forums, and people here knowing more about the process, does this mean my phones in china/europe/UK?

Expected delivery is 23/10

Amazon iPhone 12 Pro still showing as active for £849 <3. I hope we know by Saturday if they are being cancelled or not as that's when I'm due to pick up the phone in the Apple Store. I will of course cancel pick up and wait an extra 2-3 days for a saving of £150.

 

[GigabitEthernet]

Anyone had shipping from Currys

 

[lyleandrew]

Do Apple only charge you on Pick Up once you've actually picked the phone up?

 

[Jagg88]

So just talked to Apple support (the guy was great). They are able to see more detail of course about expected shipping dates. My case and mag safe charger are meant to start shipping today and he says my 12 Pro will ship on the 22nd. He pretty much confirmed that they are in Europe/UK already sitting there hence why we aren’t getting shipping information like the US thread.

Puts my mind at rest a bit and maybe I’ll actually be able to get some work done now 😂

It seems all launch day dates are already here in the UK so you'll be good for launch day delivery!

Think they do the full charge once shipped. May see the pre-authorisation go before then as they can only hold that for so long.

I have a delivery date of Saturday on mine so we'll certainly know by then.

After seeing the video, I'm quite worried as I got Gold!

I've gone for gold and after seeing the video am more excited as I think it's going to look class. What are you worried about?

I'm still just seeing 'Order Received' in my Currys order tracking. But the original email confirmation said 'expect delivery by Friday 23 October' so not worried. I do hope they use DPD as the courier so I can try and get a 9am delivery 🙂
