This is a known issue according to AppleCare support. You can call them to set it up, will have long wait times to get through.
 
Battery taking a hammering today! 46% already!

At least next year the 13 battery should hold out longer!

And I’ve not even ordered a phone! I’m getting the bus like I did for my 12 for you all lol

I missed this I must say! Maybe I’d like to get the 13 and trade in my blue 12….. tempting…
 
Biggest upgrade I’m feeling is probably 5G. The speeds I’m getting in the top bedroom of my house are the fastest I’ve ever seen. I don’t get fibre broadband here, so this is a game changer.

Camera(s) definitely deserve a mention though. Low light and macro images are ace.
 
Who else is going protector-less? Iused to always use one but decided not to on my 11 Pro Max ad apart from micro-scratches its faired well over the last 2 years. I'm not using one on my 13 Pro Max...... as I'm on the apple upgrade program with AC+, if it get's scratched badly, it'll develop some "intermittant fault" and get an express replacement :)

Me...I went case-less for the first time with my 12PM, and, after 10 months, it's still pristine. Therefore will be case-less with my new 13PM too. Never used a screen protector before, can't stand the things!

I've just upgraded from 11 Pro Max to 13 Pro Max and my phone isn't picking up 5G on my Unlimited Max plan. Anyone seen this before?
 
Just picked mine up! A fair queue even at 4:30pm at my local store, but quite a few didn’t have a reservation so got in quite quickly (and a cheeky hour before my slot).

Haven’t unboxed it yet but ProMotion on the demo models was very cool.

Quick note for anyone who started their IUP on 12 Pro launch day last year - I didn’t need to make any additional payments as Barclays had already collected the final month’s direct debit, so that assuaged my worry that I’d be charged twice and have to chase a refund.

See you all next year :)
 
@Jinjin - Have you opened up your toys yet? Great to get your feedback on the colour and assessment of the upgrade, especially as you are the Annual Thread Starter which is a very important title to us contributors! Thanks again for kicking this off - Great fun every year!! I'll join you on the MBP-R - 14/16 as thats next on hit-list! ;)

May not be much to some, but big bump from the Wi-Fi speeds I can get here and the 4G speed on my 11 Pro Max.

Well, I don’t know if I had a faulty esr screen protector as just applied the Spigen one and straight away is perfect.

Well, there’s always one or two cases each year but it seems my 13 Pro has gone “missing” at the depot.

In other words, someone has stolen it.

Always thought DPD were decent, but after todays interactions and customer service I’ll never be using them again.

no new iPhone for me this launch day.
