From the packing slip it looks like Hermes are delivering my Amazon phone tomorrow. Not had the best experiences with them with higher value items so fingers crossed...
 
Mine basically was on track for today which I can confirm by my tracking details. However, last night Yodel sent my item to a depot which is over 400 miles away compared to one which is 50 miles. Delivery company confirmed it is there fault. The status still shows as it coming today which I highly doubt due to the time it is now. I assume I will either get it tomorrow or Monday. Latest Moday I have been advised.

Can anyone confirm if they have tried a iPhone 11 screen protector on the 12 and if it fits? I have one lying about, not sure if I should use that?

There's not many things in life that give me nightmares but just hearing the word 'Yodel' gives nervous cold sweats.

They are a biblical shambles of a delivery company, light years away from the services of DPD, DHL etc.

But at least you know the depot where your package is which is a great result.
Good luck with it, you'll be fine.
 
It's almost like my XS Max knows there's a new iPhone coming soon. It's suddenly just given me this error even though I've not run any updates today.. I've no mobile signal at all on either my O2 eSim or my physical EE sim.

Problem is, I'm holding for the Pro Max, so I've another few weeks yet. Apparently a reinstall of the iOS will sort it. Fingers crossed..
 
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 🤞🤞

Mine too although its with DPD. Apple says 26th DPD say 27th. Not sure which it will be

Anyone else have this ?

Yeah, I’m not too bothered about the screen protector but the case needs to be a good one IMO.

I just like to have the thinnest and clearest one i can find. I never drop my phone. just want it protected from scratches for when i sell it. I always manage to sell them in 'A' Condition.
 
This is what I have on my phone.

Cheap and cheerful! I had the tozo cover on my X. Love the cover. Offers no drop protection but that’s what AppleCare is for.

Not a fan of the speigen screen protector....what’s the need for the cut out for the notch...?

I had a look of my old DPD orders, and found out that on a certain Friday in April, they advised the delivery will be made on Monday, but it actually came in on Saturday, so let up hope it is tomorrow 🤞🤞

I can see my order is almost in Park Royal depot which is super close to me, about 2 miles

This is only a guess, but scroll down right to the bottom of your packing slip PDF, there's a barcode right at the bottom and above that I see a string of text that mentions HERMESUK-24/premium-uk

Mine says the same!

I cannot believe Amazon have actually honoured the phones at £150 discount.

Is a £150 discount on launch a first for an iPhone?
 
So happy for everyone receiving their phones today! Only a few more weeks to wait now, can't wait! I've just ordered the ESR screen protectors, so thanks for posting the links to those!
 
ahead of the Mini & Max Pro pre-orders, and before half of folks disappear, what's the consensus so far this year?

Good
Variable
Poor
AppleAmazon (cheap or late, or both?)CPW
AO (new in at #2!)Currys
John Lewis (presumably)Three
Argos

Haven't been keeping an eye on EE / Voda etc ...
Would vouch for JL, my order is packed already so assuming it does arrive! I’ll let you know.

The problem is that this is highly subjective. Most people will have a good experience with every retailer, but there will always be a few negatives. e.g. didn't someone else at AO have their order cancelled/delayed? And I technically didn't have a great experience with Apple given the app wouldn't go live for 4-5 mins and in that time I couldn't get the phone I wanted until 2-3 weeks after launch.

Great spot, mine is with dpd. I got the 512gb so saving 450, would of been happy with 128gb though!

I have used that make of case since iPhone 10. No issues at all apart from just under a year the case seems to expand slightly but for the price it’s good. Have one on my 12 pro now work a tozo sceeen protector but it has a cut out for Face ID etc so got a esr protector coming tomorrow.
 
Not bad..l am with EE too but I don’t get 5G inside my flat (I mean it showed up for a few secs & then disappeared). I’ll go outside later & try.

(London NW8 area)

Well here’s something interesting. I’m in south east London and was getting an intermittent 5G signal most of the day (slow) and for some reason my 4G signal was incredibly slow. But it was raining heavily and I have no idea if that was affecting things.

This evening, the rain has stopped and my 4G data speeds are back to normal I’m also now I’m getting 5G upstairs in my flat. Currently running at 150mbps with a case on the phone, and 300mbps without a case.
