Can‘t recommend any games but I will say this - I have a phone mount for my Xbox controller and have to say that phone mounts are not very comfortable at all. I used my iPhone 12 for gaming and when I had it in my mount, the whole caboodle was VERY too heavy! I would think that the iPhone 13 would be even more too heavy seeing that it’s an even heavier phone!

I’ve only used it once so far. Will give it a proper run out tonight to see how I get on with the weight. Lego Brawls will be my test game!

Ooh I downloaded that last night and played a few games. I wish the champions were a little more powerful though!

I can see myself paying for Arcade beyond this 3 month trial. The games are so polished and love that there are no micro transactions.

Ordered an iPhone 13 mini (for the missus) via Currys today, then tried to cancel the order I had open with Apple which is showing as waiting to dispatch.

An hour later Currys sent me an email saying they had cancelled my order!

Luckily I couldn't cancel the apple order, anyone know how long it takes from preparing to dispatch to receiving the damn thing?

Thanks

Does anybody have any must-play games on their phones? I'm subscribed to Arcade and am willing to pay for a good game/app so open to all suggestions!

I like slow burners (think The Simpsons: Tapped Out) and I like games that you can open and play pretty easily. I've also recently bought a DS4 phone mount so am open to controller games too - get at me with your favourite games. Or happy to be pointed to an article or something too

To be honest if you’re willing to spend the money you’re better off with one of these. It’s pretty highly rated and regarded. I’ve been contemplating getting one my self.

Have to admit, and no offence to the rest of the Macrumors universe but I really do like this UK thread and the people it attracts, we generally seem quite positive and excited even outside the delivery of new devices... the second I stray into other threads it's generally all negativity and moaning.

Finally got confirmation today that Argos have checked my 12 pro for trade in. It has been with them since last Monday. Was so worried that it had been lost in their warehouse

Now just waiting for £660 pay out. time to switch focus to Apple Watch series 7 and 14” mbp threads 🙃

What date did they initially quote?
Click to expand...

I ordered when it said in stock so next day delivery was quoted and they kept to their word. I have it in my hands.

So glad I went for the graphite colour and not the max model. This model has enough heft!

Side note, no issues to report on initial inspection. Will have a proper play after work.
