I'm so fed up with everyone saying how good the ESR Armorite screen protectors are that I've ordered them again. Going to try again after yesterdays fiasco....
Got a tip for us?

I’ve had my 13 Pro Max open for a couple of hours now and I absolutely love it
I’ve come from a iPhone 11 and the screen is superb, the promotion feels amazing, the vividness of the display how much more bright it feels
the screen size increase actually isn’t bothering me as much as I thought it might of done initially
ive not picked up a case yet but on Monday (my next day off) I’m travelling to Apple store in leeds to pick up one
is there any more “features” or “upgrades” I will really see the benefit from coming from a iPhone 11?
something which is brilliant is watching a video on YouTube in HDR!

Another vote for ESR Armorite here, I’m extremely impressed
If you had problems with them you should contact ESR and I’m sure they would assist.
Miracles do happen I guess — DHL actually delivered today. I hope yours came as well!
Fantastic! And yeah it came today! My slot was 1-2pm but it arrived at 7pm. Was losing hope but glad it shows up!
Haven't posted most of the day and came back to only 2 pages??!!!

How do you manage to get a really clear picture close up?
My other half is trying to take a photo of her nails (as she works in a Nail Salon)
and the camera switches as she draws her hand closer, but the picture is grainy and rubbish, is there something she needs to switch on?
Don’t know about you guys but since getting my 13 pro max I can’t stop using it caseless. It just feels so good in the hand. Maybe because I’ve bought AppleCare plus (and I don’t really go out anymore) I’m feeling more confident?
Also, can anyone recommend a good holder for the phone to use in the car?

I’ve been using my iPhones caseless (but with a screen protector) since around 2015. They just feel much better!
If you’ve got AppleCare+ I wouldn’t worry! Ultimately if you drop it and smash it, you’ve got a £29 excess fee. I think it’s worth it.
I love going caseless but these recent phones are very slippery. I just got a Pro Max (yesterday's misdelivery rectified!!) and I'm going to be doing caseless/Pitaka MagEz 2 + MagSafe PopSocket, which by the way is surprisingly awesome. I've always ragged on them but having a MagSafe option has been great.
From the outside looking in 😁, hope the ones who received the new phones are enjoying it (I still have over 50 pages to catch up 😒)
Finally got my upgrade with the NHS Perks discount sorted out on Tuesday (Sept 21) and with the current issues with EE, it might be a few weeks before I get my hands on the iPhone 13 Pro Max 256 GB silver handset (I really hope I will get it before Oct 8 as EE has already set that as the deadline on when need to receive the old phone). My backup from Apple will be available for pickup tomorrow at 4:45 but I will cancel it so the brum store will have a spare pro max 256GB silver phone 😁.
Hey everyone! So I got my Sierra Blue Iphone 13 pro max yesterday literally at the end of my DPD slot! They said between 12 and 1, and it literally turned up at 1! I set it all up through an icloud backup. I have always loved apple products, because I am totally blind, but literally, all you have to do now, is pull the phone out of the box, turn it on, click the side button 3 times and voiceover comes on which reads everything to me on the screen. My next door neighbour helped put a ESR protector on and switched the sim over for me. This phone is a beast though! The battery life is incredible! I only have small hands though, so the size difference is taking a bit of getting used too! I have a wallet case on this as well, because i'm always worried that if I dropped this thing face down, that'd be the end of face ID! This morning the trade in kit from apple turned up, so my 12 pro is now on its way back to them. Very impressed with this phone though!
For anyone looking for stock. There’s been plenty of stock all day on and off in all London stores. You simply check the upgrade programme stock levels, reserve and when you turn up tell them you want to pay cash/exchange - they don’t care/mind. I swapped my PM graphite for the SB today at Bluewater.
Flicking between options, I’ve even seen 1TB devices today.
These are showing out of stock on the main page but available on the iUP right now.

Oh my god. The 13 Pro Macro photography is amazing!
What I worry about is scratches. AppleCare won't replace the phone if it's scratched up will they? How have you got on with scratches?
Finally opened the box and put on the esr armorite! Can’t see the black at all
******LifeProTip: If the scratch bothers you enough just smash your screen for a new one.
