ah ok... its usually an additional day is it not? NI, the highlands etc
Have always got launch day phones and watches on day one in NI , between a mix of Apple and EE.
The last launch I was active for was the iPhone 11/Watch series 5 launch and my status with DPD was that it was still in England right up until about late morning. I went for an early disappointed sad lunch that day, only to return back to my desk in work to find both items sitting there ! Good times

actually forgot I had a 6s+ and 7+ (jet black).. wow.. I can accommodate the plus size!

btw that iPhone 7 jet black finish was amazing.... most scratchable finish ever though
I had the 6S+ thinking it was great until the 7+ jet black came out! Remains one of my all time favourite colours! Outrageous finish, ultra cool but you could scratch it just by looking it! 😂 Micro abrasions happened just by taking it in & out of pockets. Even Apple said it was prone to scratching and scuffing more than the alternative 7+ matte aluminum options. Official Apple warning was even in the small print when you went to buy the phone from the Apple website!

No denying though, jet black looked awesome!

This happens every time. You’ll probably find that tomorrow it will be out for delivery. Edit: I’m NI too. Probably won’t say Belfast until tomorrow morning which always gives me jitters.
Yeah it is a bit annoying they can‘t just say arriving tomorrow for NI, but in previous years they haven’t let us down so I am assuming tomorrow will be the same. Hopefully we will see a Belfast arrival scan around 8am then out for delivery.
 
Waiting on EE this year for a SB pro max and it said delivers 24th . I’m expecting a lot of us will get an update in morning tbh and it’ll be all good
 
lol so far Jinjin’s launch day timeline is playing out exactly, we’ve had the DPD tracking going down and the confusion about the location of Ryton right on schedule :)
early DPD notifications followed by lunchtime DHL ones too.. its like Apple have planned this

Thank you to all for helping me out about cancelling my order. And not long left for the Australians/NZ, they should get their iPhones very soon. I was going to order 13P tomorrow morning via JL. But think will hold out till next year. Did not get the value I wanted for my 12P. Didnt want to shell out £200 for an upgrade. But enjoy your new devices!! :)
 
Cant shake the feeling that something is wrong at Vodafone. The twitter messages are cryptic, the website now shows 1-2 weeks and call centre seem flustered.

Usually get your tariff has changed texts before they ship something (like iPad) so not sure they have actually packed anything yet!!
In my experience unfortunately there is always something wrong with Vodafone. For work I have to contact them for network issues at client sites, and half the time they get the wrong circuit or just mess their communications up somehow! Annoying.

Hopefully won’t be as bad as it seems for those who have ordered phones from them.

Agreed although EE twitter agent just said its unlikely i will get mine tomorrow but that could change in the morning. Basically haven’t got a clue.
 
Limit myself to just 2 these days. Got into the habit of just using spotlight search and I never EVER use the App Library
watching those iOS 15 reviews showed the spotlight improvements this year.. I'm the same.. forgot the app library was there!.. after 7 pages of scrolling I don't want to go any further.

only just realised I could fast swipe over the page idicators (the dots) to quickly move between pages!)
