Apologies if this has already been covered but I can't go through 200 pages!

I ordered immediately the store opened last Friday (received confirmation email at 13.05).

When I ordered it said delivery 23rd but in my orders it is still showing as "processing" with delivery scheduled for 28 October. Anyone else seeing similar or know if the delivery date is likely to change?

Whoever ordered via Argos, get in touch with them via Live Chat to arrange a delivery date. I have just spoken to them and booked for Friday!
They have advised you need to get in touch with them to arrange delivery otherwise you will just be waiting without any updates.

Me - ‘Ok thanks and if I didn’t contact I still would be waiting for a update?’
Argos - ‘Yes unfortunately.

Argos being delivered by Yodel! 7am - 9pm wait! Requested morning but said cannot be confirmed
Thanks for letting me know.
I have arranged delivery and Yodel say they will give a 2 hour time slot nearer the time.
 
Just watched a few unboxing vids of the blue iPhone 12 - it looks nothing like the pics on Apple’s website?!

The actual phone looks like a navy blue - the pics on the site (and even in the Apple Store app) make it look VERY similar in colour to the 12 Pro.

I really don’t know if I like that colour now....!!! FEEEEEEEEECK!

I've held off watching any videos of the blue 12 as I want the first time i see its actual colour to be in the store. I guess we can't say upon collection actually I want black for example?

You’re judging the appearance of a colour from a video taken with a random camera, colour graded who knows how, viewed on a (probably) uncalibrated display. I wouldn’t necessarily panic yet...
The reviewer even said that it was more like a peach than deep red (as we’re accustomed to).

I know what you mean. I’m still sticking with the Red I think especially once I put a case on it.
 
Hehehe.. thanks EE 🤣

In all honesty though, i was watching YouTube videos of the product Red AW6 way before I even got it and even in those it looked very different compared to real life. So I would just wait until you receive it.

13:05 is the second batch for orders it seems. orders at 13:03 got delivery for the 23rd.

This is completely off topic but did you say you had an interview with Apple earlier? Was this retail or Engineering related? I have just finished my master’s degree in mechanical engineering and was thinking about applying for one of there graduate product design engineer roles.

I did, it was in the engineering side m, for the Apple cloud services team
 
Did they no that you had to book delivery as soon as you live chatted with them? I can get money of with them when I order the Pro Max but I’m not sure whether it will be worth it or a hassle.
I asked if my delivery was due on the 23rd and they arranged it for me when they said there was no delivery arranged. I never knew that I had to arrange delivery and just assumed it would arrive on release day.
To be honest it was a quick chat on the online chat and if you are getting money off it’s well worth just doing. At least you know how logistics of it will be.
