Do you know if their cases are MagSafe compatible? They don't mention it on their site. I had one of their cases ob my X and really like them.
Doubt it, doesn’t mention it anywhere. Not an issue for me as I don’t plan on getting any MagSafe accessories.

Delivery due (12 Pro) November 2nd, arrived TODAY!
I’m delighted .. it’s really lovely. Will be keeping it and not going for the max. I had been concerned that the Pro screen wouldn’t be big enough for me as I’m very used to the Max/Plus size but I LOVE IT! .. so sooooooo happy to be able to go back to a phone that’s a tad smaller than it’s been since the first Plus.
I think other 2nd of November people got theirs today also? .. hope they keep doing them early so that some of you with later November dates can receive soon also 🙂
 
Ah so I’m not the only one. I haven’t even received a delivery time slot yet so hoping it comes tomorrow. If not, I’ll give them a call and chase it up.
Hermes are useless imo, I've had something similar before and they marked it as delivered when it wasn't. im really hoping this isn't the case again

Ah same here, would've preferred Amazon use their own delivery people instead of giving it to Hermes.

Nice! Surprises like that are always the best. Which colour did you go for?

Pacific Blue .. I’d happily have it more pronounced but I still love it. A few others have mentioned but this year it does seem to feel more premium somehow? .. the sim tray was metal (or a good imitation lol). Just loving the smaller form factor without having to sacrifice my ability to SEE lol

Same, bought the Pacific Blue but would have preferred to see it stand out more. It can literally look like 3 colours in one depending on how you hold it. Although having seen my sisters silver iPhone 12 Pro, I loved the silver stainless steel sides as it just pops out more. Feel as if the Blue is a tad too dark.

Wouldn’t trust Hermes to delivery a battleship, they’ll likely lose it or it would sink 10 seconds after giving it to them.

My 2nd November order arrived today as well. :)

Have to say I love the design, I always liked the shape of the 4 and 5, and it's obviously very similar. It does also feel nicely solid and premium (so it should!). The one thing I'm not sold on is the high gloss sides, personally I'd have much preferred a matt finish. However, it will live in a case anyway, so something of a moot point really.

The Pro Max....still swithering on that one........... :p
 
Anyone got the clear MagSafe case from Apple? JL have an intro deal and I’m tempted by it but is it going to be better than my ESR clear case I have right now?

Can't believe how unlucky I am with my order and delivery times.
I ordered a blue 12 128gb on 16th and my status has not budged from 'Processing' with a delivery of 9th November!
Seriously not impressed with Apple online ordering when I could have already received one from a third party retailer.
I was in that boat. I gave up and went to John Lewis. Two year guarantee + 1 year Apple TV thrown in.
 
I bought an iPhone 11 Pro Max a couple of months ago from Amazon. I am a prime member and ordered the phone on a Tuesday, should have been delivered on the Wednesday. It was dispatched by Amazon on the Tuesday evening with Hermes. Finally turned up Friday and was chucked over the fence next to the back door, no knocking on the door. Luckily I heard it land on the ground, so it was not outside for long. Terrible service.

Great experience with GoodBuyTech. Locked my price in the same day as pre-orders and it was only supposed to be held for 7 days. They only received the 11 Pro yesterday and still paid out £555. Happy with that
Same. I’d strongly recommend GoodBuyTech also

Jesus that's terrible, amazon is nuts for using them
 
I might try and get my daughter a mini for Christmas (plus her birthday plus grandparents present) - how do returns work? I don’t know what colour to get so I need the option to return/swap colours if possible

do Apple have extended returns periods for Christmas? Don’t mind not preordering immediately if it gives me the option to return after Christmas
 
Has anyone found that the camera hammers the battery? My phone came off charge at 5:30am and at 7.30pm is down at 35%. The most battery use was by the camera at 24%. The camera was only on screen for 23 minutes and I took in the region of 20 daytime pictures. Seems like a lot of battery drain to me.
 
Honestly it will be fine they’re just busy. My confirmation came through around 4:30pm saying they have my phone and needed inspection then my quote came through in the evening at around 7:20pm and then payment was made by 8pm
So I’ve just had an email from them to say that they require proof of purchase which needs to include the IMEI number and ID due to the high value of the handset. I mean seriously? Tomorrow is the last day before the locked in price expires! Did they ask you the same? I’ve had to get a receipt from Three to show that I’ve paid it off and I bought it last September!
