It seems like Games is doing Xbox/PS5 click&collect on launch day for people with a preorder. Maybe Apple will do something like that for iUP customers 🤔

Are the ESR screen protectors really that good and everyone is buying them left right and centre?!

I know they offer edge to edge but is that really needed ? 🤔 Personally, as long as my actual screen part is protected (which it is a la the Belkin in store installation) then that suffices for me (don‘t need the black border around the screen protected).

The Belkin protected my XS for 2 whole years(and now starting its third year as the handset has been passed down to a family member) without a single scratch, chip, blemish or anything hence why I chose the same one for my 12.

I would rather edge to edge for peace of mind but Belkin screen protectors are good. They’re my go to but this time I’m going for ESR. It’s cheaper than Belkin and you get more than 1 for £8.99. I can’t complain

When will the Apple store app allow for setting up a phone for preorder? Did it for my 12 but can’t remember when it went live

and will mini preorders likely arrive inside apples extended returns window for Christmas?

I agree - I've done some research and the drop tests for the screen protectors, ESR actually comes off one of the worst. The clear leaders are the Belkin and Flolab, followed by Zagg. You often get what you pay for...and I'd rather pay a bit more to protect a very pricy phone.

I don’t think iUP would qualify as click and collect as you have to hand back a phone and do a new credit check in store. I don’t think that will be allowed and I’m not sure what Apple will do.

but - you could settle the finance and buy with iPhone payments (0% 24m) and then sell the phone which should more than cover the settlement amount

Drop tests for a screen protector don’t concern me in the slightest if I’m honest.
I get them to stop scratches as phone screens in general are getting softer and easier to scratch. If a protector is pretty much invisible to the eye and feels almost as good under my thumb as the original glass I’m happy.
I plan on using this 12 Pro until I’m at least out of uni in 2 years and into work again afterwards, maybe even longer if it holds up well. That’s a long time to me, I’ve never had a phone in daily use for more than 9 months!
So the longer it looks good the better and I’m sure the ESR will do a great job of scratch protection.

Just about click and buy these, and luckily noticed they were for the Pro Max!

I'm looking for just the 12 pro size!
Can't seem to find them on Amazon!?

Are they not for sale anymore....
