I just picked up my sons iPad one of the basic ones from last year and you really notice the 120Hz from the iPhone when you go back and use something that doesn't have it.

I have the 2018 iPad pro and to be honest never really noticed it on that if I was honest but it seems night and day on the iPhone and making me notice it more on devices that don't have it now.

iPhone 13 Pro Max Silver 256gb pre-order here.

Shipping estimate 4th - 11th Oct.

Status just changed to “Preparing to Ship”.

Edit: Phone has shipped and is arriving tomorrow.
You’re lucky….. Mine was ordered roughly 20mins after launch with a date same as yours (4-11 Oct). However, mine is still at Processing.
 
Well, my iPhone 12 has been delivered to Argos :

I changed from the ESR Clear Case to the Silicon Midnight Apple case yesterday and what a difference. It just feels much nicer to use in the hand and looks like a premium phone should. No complaints with the ESR case itself, good fit, great price (bargain thanks a code someone kindly posted in here last week) and probably better protection too - but it really makes the phone feel a bit cheap and plasticky.

This is my first MagSafe iPhone and I'm thinking of ordering a MagSafe car mount as it seems far more convenient. Does anyone have one they can recommend. I've noticed many of the iPhone 12 Pro ones are not compatible with the 13 Pro, presumably due to the larger camera notch.

Using ESR Amorite and UAG plyo case in ash with my graphite 13 pro. Feels like a good combo

been using UAG cases since around iPhone 7 and they’ve offered amazing protection
 
Hmm, no longer feeling confident with the vague delivery details provided by CPW's order confirmation stating it's on pre-order and will be delivered from 5th Oct once it comes into stock. Yet the product page when ordering stated delivery by 5th Oct. Am hoping this is not going to start wandering in Oct/Nov territory.

I’ve used this ESR car mount for my iPhone 12 and also now iPhone 13 Pro. It‘s great and I’ve just put another one in our second car

Mine arrived exactly 24 hours before yours (same signature), but nothing updated so far in the status.

we need to be patient, they received too many devices these days, at least people who sent late last week/early this week have been paid, so it should be within the next few days.

Thanks for the recommendation. I've just placed an order. I can never really be too sure of the reviews because some are paid and some are merged with other products.

The Apple MagSafe and ESR Halolock cases work well with it and obviously it works great without a case too.
 
So I was just sitting here thinking......

My 11 Pro Max was doing me fine. I didn't need to upgrade..............so I bought the 13 Pro Max.......
Always used a cheap Amazon clear case for every iPhone Ive had. No need for Apple Cases..........so I bought an Apple case.
Cable charging doesn't bother me at all. Have absolutely no need for wireless charging.........so I bought a MagSafe charger.

What else do I not need that I will actually end up buying........ 🤦‍♂️

So after the universal praise of the ESR Armorite, I went ahead and purchased it.

However, I appear to have made a rookie mistake. I purchased directly from their website, which after doing so, I realised it’s up to 15 working days from the goods dispatching to arrive… I also appear to have seen the exact same one on Amazon for £10 less and next day delivery…

I use a small Mpow MagSafe car vent mount and it’s ideal. Paired with my leather Apple MagSafe case it is held securely. Had used it for 11 months with my iPhone 12 Pro and wasn’t sure if the heavier 13 PM would be as secure but thankfully all good.

I was gonna look at buying a different case from Amazon (currently have the Midnight (Black) on my 13 Pro) but will be going to Blue Water on Saturday afternoon so will visit the Apple Store there to check out some in-store cases in person and have rummage!!!!!!

woohoo just received an order update from Apple that my phone has shipped and delivery date is tomorrow! Fingers crossed it's in the morning :D I'm WFH so I'll unpack it and set it up in peace haha

I had ordered a 13PM 128GB Graphite on the 17th and expected delivery was Oct 4-11 so this is a pleasant surprise!
 
Off topic question.

Any idea which is the best instant/polaroid camera for kids.

Thinking of getting one for my son for his Birthday on Halloween lol.
