Mag Armor looks good too in spite of the logo on the back

Glad some are MagSafe compatible as well

Is it worth getting AppleCare+ if you pre-order? The last Mac I owned was over a decade ago and the last iPhone I owned was the iPhone 3G so I'm a bit behind the times when it comes to Apple stuff.

Very much a personal decision and whether you have personal possessions cover with another provider etc. If you need more time to think on it you can add it up to 60 days post launch

There’s no rush to get AppleCare+ (doesn’t have to be bought at the same time as the phone) but I would advise getting it as recent iPhones have become extremely expensive to repair.

My issue with waiting for the 14 is if Apple do go with a notchless design and under-screen FaceID etc, I'd rather wait a year for it to mature and get the 15 instead - just to make sure all the kinks are ironed out etc.
Hence upgrading my 11 Pro max to the 13 Pro Max with the intention of keeping the 13 for another couple of years at least. These handsets are getting too expensive, with little to justify the cost of upgrading every year, maybe even every 2 years....

It’s remembered got a £50 voucher from amazon due to joining virgin media. Think will use that to get the silicone case from apple. Think I’ve decided one case only this year.

I plan to use the phone without a case at home at times.

I can see your point of view. Sometimes I have to remind myself that my iPhone Pro Max cost me significantly more than the brilliant M1 MacBook Air that I bought in November last year. Seems extraordinary.

I'm surprised a company like Spigen have been allowed (or won't face sanctions from Apple) for 'leaking' shots of the new phones. I know we've seen loads of design leaks, drawings etc from industry commentators and twitter leakers, but for a big case manufacturer to so blatantly show us what we're getting ahead of the official announcement just doesn't seen right. I miss the days where there was a little unknown left.

Unless Apple have planted all this and are going to blindside us all with something big (though then again i think that before every event and just get even more disappointed when all it really boils down to is a faster processor, slightly better camera and a new colour, oh and a new emoji or something). Then again i still throw my money at them to buy it.

I know what you mean. That potential 14 looks great (a larger, thicker, faster version of my SE1) but if it doesn't come as a mini I'll be getting a 13 (or even a 12, depending on the cost). But you could end up waiting every year for the better thing to arrive a year later, and never upgrade at all!

Surly there fee is standard £100 if it has not been a year, but the dispute here is the iPhone 13 is being released 1 month earlier. You upgrade a 3 months after release so you might have to pay?

While I agree, EE don't really care about the phone you have, it's all in the T&C's. £200 after 1 week, £100 after 6 months then free after the year. Remembering also that you can't not downgrade your tariff, you have to be paying the same or more per month.

I'm still going to argue the £100 upgrade fee and do what I can not to pay it.
