Screen protectors- better to have the notch and front camera covered, or not?

I would say not, but each to their own i guess!

Can I ask those who have an ESR tempered glass on their iPhone 12 if it is truly 'edge to edge'?

I'm really debating whether I should swap out my Belkin tempered glass for an ESR one if its edge to edge?!

This is my Belkin (apologies for the naff picture quality - its taken on a first gen iPad Air 2!!) :

Does the ESR actually go to the edge of the phone...?!

case looks fab screen protector looks naff to me. don’t think the ESR goes completely edge to edge for case friendly but looks better than that from the pictures that’s been posted

I agree. I changed as the Qualcomm modem is gonna be way better then the Intel one in the XS Max

I’m coming from XR, difference is gonna be big for me with OLED and of course one of my biggest reasons for upgrading is the modem

When did you get the order in?

16:19 on the 6th.

pre orders went live at 13:00.

the apple store didn't go back up until ~13:20 and by that time the delivery window was 23rd to 30th November so i thought i'd leave it and just buy it at a store. i hope i get mine on the 23rd but seems like i need to wait until the end of the month now.

Damn, Apple Store is down, presumably because of the event tonight. No more tracking for the time being!

Yeah for sure. That is my main reason for the upgrade as otherwise I love the size etc of the XS max

...yea agreed - may just have to order that ESR, even if I am only gaining a few millimetres!!!!

Can’t believe UK got shafted with intel modems. I loved my 8 plus with touch ID, would’ve probably kept it for a long time but the modem was terrible. XR wasn’t much better

When will apple start shipping when the delivery date is 13 Nov?

 

[Ansath]

i updated my post.

store didn't go back up for about 20 minutes and was never any option for delivery on the 13th.

It depended on how you tried to access it. Chrome let me in at 13:10, Safari about 13:15, the app about 13:20-13:30

 

[Apple Mac Daz]

I'm on 3 and this happens so much when using WIFI calling.
Also calls just dont connect when on 3/ 4G sometimes and i'm constantly switching off and on mobile data.
