People stop posting pictures of the leather cases in the blue shades. I vowed never again but these look so nice! For reference mine get scratches like the green one within a few hours
also the shade remind me of Which is even more tempting!

Yeah my Alpine Green case isn’t even 6 months old and it’s battered, but I love aged leather, gives it a bit more character.

I’ve ordered the same.
Last few years with the clear MagSafe case (because I had the Blue) but this year gone space black, so nothing much to see.

Get in!! 😁 It’ll be the most amazing purchase you’ve ever made. I’ve had the Tesla Model 3 about 5 months now and it puts a smile on my face every time I get in it. Beautiful car and so amazing to drive. Build quality is actually top notch too.

This is her:

That’s what I think as well! When I test drove the model Y it was an amazing experience! Can’t wait for the delivery. Currently I have the joy of looking between apple forums for my new iPhone and Apple Watch and then the Model Y for delivery times hoping that I will get it sooner 😂

P.S next month of course there will be another exciting one as I am due to upgrade my 2018 iPad Pro 11”….lots of new gadgets this year for me. Thank god for those 0% credit cards which means I can spread the cost of my splurge 😅

Why? I get 3.5% off Argos so another 1% off curry's whats wrong with them?

Because (again, IMHO) they are the worst company, when it comes to any kind of decent customer service.

They don’t pay their staff enough to care and unless they can sell you a warranty, or an item that they can earn a bonus from, they don’t care.

And just wait until you have a problem with a device you’ve bought from them.

Because they can’t make money from you, they don’t care about your 6 month old, dead iPhone.

They’ll fob you off and give you the runaround until you give up.

Please, don’t do it.

A 4 month turn around?! I’ve had a Golf R on order since June last year!!

OMG! that’s a lot of waiting! Yeah I placed the order via my company as a company car (way cheaper) on 8th Aug and initially got an estimated delivery for Jan-Mar 23’ but it has now come forward to Dec’22! Not bad at all considering the waiting in other brands currently…

Well I thought I was done, but apparently there was a problem with my payment and they need me to update it.

Okay sure, no problem. I have a few cards.

I also have a few browsers.

NONE OF THEM WORK. It gets to the 2FA page and just doesn't actually load anything from any of the banks.

(Not a scam by the way, I went to the order page manually myself)

Yeah, so I hade the same problem. Just randomly went on the Apple Store App just now and my Apple Pay order did not correctly take payment.

Logged into my apple account and used the exact same card again (but not Apple Pay) and it went through right away.

Check your orders guys!

Unfortunately the part in bold simply ain't working for me :(
 
Popping in for my bi-annual visit,

iPhone 12 Pro 256 Graphite to be replaced with iPhone 14 Pro 256 Space Black due to be delivered on release day. The upgrade in the camera technology is what I'm most looking forward to and it just seemed altogether snappier in the video's I've seen.

12 Pro going to Daughter and will look to move on her 2019 iPhone 11 128 in Yellow.

I've used ESR clear cases for the past few years but they do change colour from heat cycles/uv breakdown so this time I will probably go back to an Apple leather case in the very nice looking ink colour.

I just think between the Leather Apple case, and buying the Spigen Crystal Clear Hybrid the leather slips from your had more :(

I love the leather cases, but just think I may be prone to accidents, than the stickier plastic of the Spigen

The leather case does get grippier after a couple weeks of use. I found the same problem when I first got a leather case from Apple.

Personal preference really

No worries! Let me know if you need any more shots / angles but I would also recommend the Ink - will go very nicely with the DP phones!
 
Anyone ordered the Apple Leather Case in Umber colour? If so can you please post some photos.
 
i-aamir said:
Honestly mate the elderberry and ink are best ones. I always use black / midnight most of the time but this year those two are my favourites! Would highly recommend!!

Only issue is I took that Elderberry one out for 10 second to take a pic for you guys and it’s already got our cat’s hair on it!!

Will need some regular maintenance!!

Just realised I forgot to change the pickup on my phone to my wife as she will go to the store. What's the easiest way to change the pickup name on my phone? Doesn't seem to be an option to change the order.
 
Noticed if I order the model I want now the ETA is 18-25th Oct. Based off of previous years how likely is that date to change to sooner?
 
How can I cancel my Apple Store order? I have purchased through Amazon on the pay in 5 and want to cancel with Apple but no cancel button anywhere?

I received this message above 4 hours after I was finally able to complete my order for 2 iPhones. I instinctively clicked on the link but I received an error message. I then noticed that this was probably not a genuine Apple website. I entered the web address into my Windows laptop and received a warning message from my ISP Virgin Media that it was suspicious site. I had not actually used Apple Pay for the orders.
Seems that the scammers are out in force for the order launch day.

Had a DPD message similar saying my order was on hold until additional details provided..... just be cautious.
