Here’s what I am getting on EE 5G in NW8 London. Hopefully I will see 1Gbps when I go to central London soon!
 
Ahaha been reading MacRumors for as long as I can remember but somehow only joined today. I pre-ordered my 12 Pro from Apple literally 2 mins past pre-order time last week, but the App Store app still says preparing for shipping. Anyone here with the same situation? I guess pre-ordering it as quick as possible doesn't mean you're one of the first to get it? Was hoping it'll come tomorrow lmao.
 
I got the Ringke Fusion for my Pro, looks great.
Has a small lip all around but larger along the top and bottom. It’s a great clear case and will do me fine until the leather ones appear
Interesting! Mind if we have a look? I’ve got the controversial Apple clear one coming tomorrow for Magsafe but if I hate it I’m gonna get one of yours! I’ve been a resolute black apple leather case user since 2014 (though I got midnight blue somewhere in that) and suddenly realised how much more I like the clear cases.
 
Is someone else not able to add their American express card to the Apple wallet? It keeps throwing error to try again.

Yeah no problem. I’ll grab a couple of pics as soon as I get the little one in bed.

Good spot. Mine also says 'RM' so that means a morning delivery given it's Saturday.....unless of course they do their usual and can't be bothered delivering it until Monday.......
Mine says RM-CHES2, which must be the Chester Delivery Office which is where out mail comes via.

Usually when Amazon post via Royal Mail, I don’t get shipping confirmation until 1am - but at least I know my card has been charged, and the invoice is available on Amazon
 
Everyone with John Lewis / JL orders:

I rang customer service and they confirmed my phone has been packaged, we would expect dispatch confirmation within the next four hours.

I had one fairly soon after ordering and had a DPD notification about lunch time. Glad to hear others are getting theirs.
 
Anyone on a good SIM only plan with EE? I'm currently on 40GB for £11 (my account has lots of unexplained discounts on it that I don't want to ask too many questions about), but it isn't 5G.

I see Apple Music is now a smart benefit, so as I already pay a tenner a month for this, a smart benefit effectively reduces my monthly cost by £10. Anyone on a 5G plan with a smart benefit for around 20-25 a month?
 
All these devices making me feel bad for waiting for the Pro Max! Suddenly my 11 PM is feeling really huge and heavy.... but the new one weights exactly the same but is a tad larger so hopefully it won’t feel bad in the hand! The flat sides should help, I hope...

I recently got 200GB with a smart benefit in 5G for £20 per month. It’s the £25 plan with a 20% discount, which you can get by begging for a loyalty discount or getting a student / blue light / corporate discount code.

That’s somewhat worrying then, no tracking activity my end...

Are Hermes dreadful? Thats what my Amazon orders says.
I use them for ebay sales, they have lost 3 / - 200 parcels during the height of the pandemic. So I think you’re okay unless the courier decides to redistribute your wealth into his pocket.

Mine appears to be lost somewhere due to an “unexpected issue”
View attachment 972224

This happened to me with an aftershsve order from Boots a few weeks back. I ended up having to give it about 5 days before Boots would do anything with it. After the time had passed they sent out a replacement which arrived. The original item never showed up so was definitely lost/ stolen at Hinckley. Hope you get sorted man.
 
Haha my phone in this MagSafe silicone case is pretty attracted to my metal bedside table!

What's your early verdict on MagSafe charging compared to the usual fast charging? I'm tempted to pull the trigger but undecided.

I'd definitely take that! They tried to offer me 4GB (yes, FOUR) for £26 when I asked what they're cheapest smart benefit was. I've no idea how I have all the current discounts on my account other than the 20% one - but it seems my employer has stopped it! Other half is NHS so I'll get her code and try for the plan you got.
