A few people mentioned screen protectors and having them fitted at an Apple store. Did you order these when you collected your phones? Do Apple charge for installation? I have ordered some cheap screen protectors but I’d be happier paying a little more to get it fitted perfectly

Good question will be interested to hear the answer to.
 
Just in case anybody was wondering, the magnets in the iPhone 12 are not strong enough to use directly on a DJI OM (Osmo) 4.

I knew it was a long shot but I’d sort of hoped DJI had been working with Apple so that the gimbal could hold the phone directly.
 
Not gone with a screen protector myself, haven’t had one on a phone for years now

I can also say my screen is definitely yellow/warmer in comparison to my iPhone X

I thought this too... warmer screen than my 11 pro but I will fiddle with settings before I make that call to take it back

I think this is it - it is a warmer display. I have also noticed that the longer the screen is on the colder it goes. Or maybe my eyes get used to its lol.
 
If amazon are using their own couriers then I normally get a dispatch email anytime between 8pm to 11.30pm , going to be a long day avoiding the other phone in a certain DHL box!

Personally I’d open the DHL box. I have. Apple will opening it anyway when they get it back to check it’s the same device as they sent out.
 
46GB used out of 64GB already and that’s without overcast even looking like it synced across the offline podcasts which were a few GB on my old phone.

9GB of other is frustrating for a phone I’ve just set up 🙁

The brown box is fine to open as its just a box within a box

Just don't take the plastic off the the actual Apple iPhone box (you still can but that means the phone gets sent back/dismantled etc and recycled) and is basically just a complete waste
 
just got the email delayed until november 6th

they do say we understand if want to cancel your order please do so they know no one will because of the discount lol
 
Had to move over data from my wife’s Android. Getting WhatsApp to transfer over data between platforms is a huge pain involving some pretty bad third party software, spent far more time on that than everything else.

Chaps on hotukdeals are still getting charges on their cards so there is hope yet.
We'll get there eventually 🙂

I opened the brown box, but not the apple box.... at the end of day Amazon has to pay us compensation if they don't deliver, we have a new Iphone that we do not open!!!
 
Unlucky 🙁

BUT that's not that bad, you can open your Apple order now (if you do have one coming? If not im sorry in advance for this post)

and then return it within the 14 days which is the 6th November
no i didn't order via apple i wasn't even going to update this year but the amazon discount was too much to turn down.

It will probably mean i won't be able to get my music magpie guranteed price for my iphone now either not sure what they are now i got 415 locked in i think.
