Argh, I had googled "how to transfer an esim" before buying my phone and thought it would be straightforward. Turns out EE are crap and I have to request a new QR code. I guess my 12 Pro has to stay home this weekend until it arrives :(

Got my iPhone 12 Pro in Pacific Blue.

What a lovely phone! 100% best in its class and revamped classic design is amazing! Also happy with the screen size which is definitely bigger than the 11 pro.

Congrats to everyone who got it today and good luck to those who will have it shortly! It’s worth the wait!

For anyone worrying about warm / yellow screens. Go to settings accessibility, display and change the colour tint which will give the phone a crisp white look. I’ve been doing it for years and works well every time.

Attached are my settings. Let me know if it helps! Enjoy all!!

Did you get an email/text from DHL about the delivery? And could you track the van/see a delivery time slot?

I can track my delivery from the Apple website, and it says Out for Delivery, but no indication of time or confirmation from DHL

If you put the Syncreon number as a customer reference with your postcode on the DHL tracking site you can use the DHL tracking to get a time.

I didn’t get a text, but my wife did for her phone.

I've got the Spine full coverage screen protector on mine, it has that black border around the edge which is probably unnecessary with the flat screen but it looks good on my phone.
 
My Apple.com order has now moved from 28th to 26th Delivery :p

I am however still more excited about watching the new Borat tonight than a phone getting delivered - yakasmash!
Hey so did mine, from 28 to 26!! Apple status says it's already shipped, although not yet with DPD, but I am 3% hopeful that it might actually show up tomorrow 🤞🤞
 
I've stuck my 12 pro in an old fogeys wallet case ( 'cos I am one ) It has my bank and Travel card plus the "Emergency Tenner" Chucked it onto an old wireless charger that I used on my Samsung 7, it's the one that stands the phone up like a bookstand. I have a USB energy monitor so I put that in line with the charger.
Pleased to say that even with the "Fogey Case" on the phone the wireless charger works great. It's not a "Chi" charger or anything sophisticated, Phone was charging at 1.15 Amps which dropped steadily as the phone reached 90+%.
That will be ideal as I can chuck it on the bedside table and let it charge overnight, plus the money I haven't spent on an Apple wireless charger can go towards a nice leather case.

This happened to me. If you are near an EE though, it take about 2 minutes for them to sort it out and give you a new QR code to scan. They asked me for a driving license/passport so make sure you have one.
 
Spoken to Argos in regards to my order. They have offered me compensation in regards to the delayed delivery. Not open to saying how much, but I guess waiting a few days for getting the 12 at a good price is worth it. :)

Just picked my 12 up from the Apple shop.

I was upgrading through the IUP but the sales person told me my 11 was worth £400 so I could trade it in with them and then I only had 260 left on my loan so I could start a new loan then phone Barclays and pay the loan from my 11 off when the money from the trade in goes into my bank so I made money upgrading I didn’t realise you could do that!
 
Still trying to do a quick setup data transfer. It's going badly, I'm on attempt 12, and it's stuck at 'Setting up your Apple ID..."
My data transfer to the 12 Pro went okay but missed a few things like authenticator and Metrobank. My daughter did a quick setup data transfer and it complained about Apple ID. We power cycled the phone and then it worked.
 
Happy iPhone day everyone!


when we expecting the pre approved to be available on the pro max

I don't think they are doing pre approval for the max. I've checked via the apple store app on myiphone and not an option even now - still just set a reminder.



Am contemplating upgrading to a 12 Pro Max in Gold and will probably order next week and see how I find it when it arrives. Last max I had was the 7 Plus and whilst I wasn't keen on the larger size then I feel I would like to try it again. Otherwise I will just stick with my 11 Pro for another year.

Interested to see Pro gold pictures if anyone got one today :)

When did they say delivery will be?
