iPhone 13 UK iPhone 13/13 mini/13 Pro/13 Pro Max Pre-release, Orders and Dispatch Thread

I’m glad I’m not the only one. Keep going back and forth to standard to pro 13. Coming from the pro 12 I’m thinking pro but the idea of a lighter phone is really tempting me.

Stick with Pro. The extra weight is worth it!

Well I think I'll be sticking with my 12 mini. The 'new' notch bothers me more than the old.

13g difference to my 12 pro now. Think I’m overthinking it slightly 😂

 

[CD3660]

I'm on a XR at the moment and I have just ordered a new 12 pro on eBay for £750 🤞

You’ll love the 12 Pro. It’s a beautiful phone.

It’s only around half an ounce. Think of all the advantages instead.

What the hell is an ounce?

What is MM? Would like to trade in my 11 pro but Apple only offering £325 off. At that price I would prefer to gift it to a family member after getting a new battery and the screen replaced under apple care.
Any thoughts?

Sorry, I was born when Jesus was a boy.

Music Magpie. Used by many around here. Good, reliable company.

Just like any insurance product... you never need it until you do!
I always make sure I have them insured one way or the other, don't always go with AppleCare though.

True - I did check via Natwest back.
Its £10 via Natwest, and around £9.59 or so via Apple......

Music Magpie.
Prices have dropped though. I did my 11 Pro Max 256GB last week Tuesday, and got £470, and an extra £30 with the code 'UPGRADE21' - so £500 total.

Today MM offer £420!!

I did put my phone on Gumtree though, and have someone coming today to buy it for £550.
Whether he turns up though, is another matter. If not it'll go to MM....

 

[Doc_dee]

The max does take getting a bit of used, but after about a week with my 12 pro max I got used to it. The only real downside is it quite heavy. The benefits of a larger screen for watching content and the much better battery life make it worth it.

Thanks I think I need to visit an apple store to compare

You can ONLY do this if you trade in your current phone with Apple (or you can sell it privately of course) - they will give you a sum of money[1] which then goes towards paying off your current Barclays Finance[2]. If this sum[1] is not enough to pay off this balance[2] then you'll have to pay this yourself at the checkout.

Or take a 2nd agreement, then settle the 1st in due course

 

[Ifti]

I pre-preordered a phone, but now think I may just do the finance offer considering its 0%.
I don't really like taking out loans if I don't need to, but considering its at 0% seems a no brainer......

Gonna do another pre-preorder with the finance selected........

I have absolutely no need for anything above 100GB to be honest.

But I have to buy the 512GB 'just in case' lol

I want to start using my phone more for my YouTube videos - may save buying the new GoPro!

 

[smallcoffee]

I have a 128GB pro max. I just checked and I have only used 45GB of storage.

I have iCloud for my photos and Spotify for my music. I really could get away with a 64GB to be honest 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not worried about the storage so much - more so worried about the Pro-Res stuff only being on the 256gb model.

 

[Zonck]

I’ve just done this for the first time. What happens on Friday? Do I come back to the app and complete the checkout process?

Wait, how did you do this? I’ve got an amount outstanding but I can’t reserve one to pick up when I clear the balance in store

Do you even need it if you’re not doing any video editing? You’ll still have access to 4K60 video in Dolby vision and no restriction on still images captured

I found a site called Meelie (hadn't heard of it before) how are offering £452 for an unlocked 256gb 11 pro

TBH I'd rather somewhere with plenty of good reviews etc - just in case.
Ive used MM before successfully......

Good question - that's why I'm asking lol!

Totally fair, i'm unsure about using one I've not heard off too. Seem to be a fair few places offering north of £400 https://www.compareandrecycle.co.uk/mobile-phones/apple-iphone-11-pro?capacity=256gb

 

[azing]

Starting to second guess my colour choice... I always go silver so I can polish out any scratches.
Anyone who has had a non-silver phone without a case, how does the coating hold up to scratches?

...nobody can reserve one to pick up in store yet!!!

That comes on Friday from 1pm.....!!

When so the reviewers usually get their handsets to review?
