TBH I kind agree. I cant see how the MagSafe wallet is useful. I'd be worried about it catching the edge of my pocket when sliding my phone in and then falling off without me noticing.
Also I prefer to keep a wallet (when I carry one) separate - if your phone is snatched they get your cards too!!
...I doubt that very much!!! Release day is Friday so you definitely wont get it tomorrow!!
Best way to install it is search on You Tube for 'Hinge Method Screen Protector'.
😉
Just a reminder for those transferring from one phone to another on Friday, some apps are notoriously painful to set up from scratch if you don't have access to the app on the old phone. HSBC, Tesco+ and Starling apps are a few examples of apps that will ask for a code from the old phone.
They can still be logged into if you don't have the old phone to hand but it can be painful - Starling will ask for you to record and send a video selfie which can take up to a few hrs for someone to verify your account. HSBC was the worst for me, I used a code from my old phone to log into the new one with no issues but as soon as I wiped it and shipped it off to MM and tried to log on again it asked again for the code from the old phone. Took about 45 mins of pain to get back into the account.

I’ve ordered this case from Amazon for the Graphite 13 Pro I’m expecting to be delivered from O2 on Friday on my pay monthly upgrade.
Didn’t pay anything as I had an Amazon gift card plus the price has gone down since I added the case to my basket yesterday.
...you have a beautiful iPhone 13 Pro coming on Friday and you are going to incase it in that monstrosity...?!!!!!!!!
😮
Exactly, although… I am very risk averse, so it’s definitely not aimed at folks like me. Plus it makes the phone horrible to hold, which is a no no. I already know I’m going to miss the rounded edges of my X😞
Very unlikely, I believed it happened once, somewhere in the US, but it is one in a billion chance. If you are sure you are not expecting a delivery be very careful, there is one or two scams going about along these lines.
I didn't have my card at the time and just wanted it locked in 😂
(All this talk of coffee has made me need one, fired up the Nespresso and milk frother)
Yeah, Hi Col….. yeah, yeah Geoff Lintern, yes THE Linternator…. Asked me to touch base vis a vis the new iPhone cases, he needs them to look like the pencil cases we storm thought last year, so yeah, yeah…. Fire up the whiteboard of thoughts and circle back to me with the renderydodahs.
so have a capachoochoo on me
you are, as always a magnificent Herron!
Ciao a Bella

You will get an email from MM saying the below
"Your Royal Mail tracking page may show your order as Delivered. This means your order reached the Royal Mail central hub and has not yet been delivered to musicMagpie.
Once your order arrives at our warehouse we will email you to let you know."
If it arrives after 2 pm it will be processed the next working day
You can’t have too much Mortimer. Love watching him and Whitehouse go fishing😂
Cheers - I quite like his videos, now that I've found them. Not that impressed with the Mini 6; I went Mini 2 > Mini 4 > Air 3 and was thinking about going back to Mini. For 0.4" of extra screen I might as well look for someone flogging excess Mini 5 stock, and save my money for a new 13
Same here, delivered 14:02? The race is on! I think their cut off for the day is 2pm which is annoying
I imagine the Royal Mail tracking is updated when they scan dropping it off, and now MM will have a huge batch of deliveries to scan themselves which will ping us an email out hopefully later today
It does seem quieter this year - would be keen to see the posts per day stats versus 2020
Here's my time line:
06/09 Locked price with MM
15/09 Dropped of at post office in Aberdeen at 12:13pm
17/09 Delivered by Royal Mail to MM AT 3:51pm
18/09 Email from MM to say it arrived in their warehouse
20/09 Money transferred to my PayPal
22/09 Email from MM to say they transferred the money
I have definitely gone overboard this year, just ordered one of these for the iPhone to iPhone transfer. Took 3 hrs in total when I did my 12PM back to XS Max using wifi. It will be interesting to see if a wired connection makes any difference to the data transfer speed
You lose your iPhone and wallet at the same time. Nightmare scenario
"None taken", honest ... 😳
I've not had one before, so admittedly it's something of a punt to see how it goes. Since Apple Pay I rarely take cards out with me day-to-day - and almost never take any cash - but do have a more niche Use Case for work which I've used a similar conventional leather card 'slip' for.
Pre-COVID I'd be in London either for one day-trip, or one / two nights in a hotel, every week so need to carry my physical corporate credit card to pay for *everything*, an Oyster card (as we couldn't contactless or Apple Pay on Tube with corp card) and the client site I visit most often needs photo ID to get the lift from their shared-building foyer = Driving Licence. When at work I've usually got a jacket on, so phone goes inside breast pocket & less likely to detach as it could with jeans etc.
The thing with the Wallet also is that it only carries 3 cards, and you'd think any bank cards in there would be linked to Apple Pay on your phone anywayYou lose your iPhone and wallet at the same time. Nightmare scenario
Looked back to see what mine went for on eBay last year & was well chuffed to have got £849 gross, before fees & postage. Feels like second-hand prices are generally lower across the board this year.
Yup my Apple Leather case is here.
Im all set for Friday I thinks, unless I mess putting on the screen protector more than 3 times.
