How does Apple Store shipping work? I ordered the leather case from the partner store and its already "preparing to ship" but dates were 6 October+... I ordered in case JL didn't restock so I could cancel it later but that option has disappeared now since its changed to that
 
I’m taking the gamble this year by checking store stock daily rather than order via apple website… will update as and when and if I do get my hands on a PM 🤣
I was at the Apple Store on Friday to collect my Watch S8 when I mentioned that my iPhone 14 Pro was not due for delivery until mid-October. I was advised to return to the store this week, as they will be expecting more stock to arrive.

Did you get payment? I got “bounced “ and went on chat and told me they’d try again on Tues!

No I didn’t get the payment yesterday. They sent the bounced email about an hour after dropping off about 5 of us are in the same boat now, waiting for Tuesday.

As others have said it's deffo less than my 13PM, regardless of what Apple says, but will reserve judgment for a week or so.

I so very rarely do this but I've just submitted feedback to Apple to make the AOD darker or to at least add an option where it only shows clock and widgets and no wallpaper. I'm sure I'm not the first to do this, nor the last, so hopefully Apple will at least explore it.
True. The way they’ve implemented it means it’s not really AOD - they’ve just dimmed the display all the way down.

I now might be on the hunt for a regular Pro…

Even though I had the 13 Pro Max, I think using a regular 11 Pro for two weeks made me realise I don’t need the larger screen… and after having a play with my wife’s regular 14 Pro, I think I’m tempted to take this back and wait… annoyed at myself for being so indecisive.

I’m really happy with the pro and the ever so thinner bezels give a little more screen real estate!

Hey guys - I know MM has been a bit of a hit and miss this year but wanted to get some advice!

I sent my 13p at 9am Saturday ( once the 14P was setup and confirmed as defect free ).

To my surprise the item has already been delivered ( next day).

When should I expect an acknowledgement / inspection /
payment notification?

Cheers all!!
 
About the battery life... I'm pretty impressed coming from a 12Pro, though maybe not mind-blowing as I'd hoped. I think the biggest difference so far is how much battery the 14Pro uses while idle and locked (note I've turned off AOD). My 12 wouldn't have lasted til 6pm with the same usage.

Thanks, they told me in store to try the online reservations on Tuesday morning so I will be doing that
 
Amazon have delayed parcels to me before if the status actually says delayed this usually means it is delayed. Have you tried contacting them via live chat as they will actually call the distribution centre to find out what the delay is.
Alas, my worst fears appear to have been realised…. How you ‘lose’ a parcel is beyond me… I’m going to keep checking the serial to see if it gets activated…

Doesn’t anyone think that all these “bounced” MM payments might be a matter of concern?
Yeah we all do. But there’s nothing we can do apart from at least wait until the next working day to see if they’ve resolved it.

I had the same thought but didn't express it in case it caused additional worry to all the people caught out by the bouncing payments.

MM might just be short term cash limited and it will rectify in a few days.

Sorry as I haven’t been following properly this weekend.

Did loads of people not get paid from MM ? Was there an email or something about payments bouncing from their end?
 
True. The way they’ve implemented it means it’s not really AOD - they’ve just dimmed the display all the way down.

I just sent the same feedback. The more of us that do it the more likely something will happen.

I also just sent one about the dynamic island as I think the control should be reversed. One tap to expand it and had press to open app.

It also changed to 1Hz refresh rate, there is more going on that just screen dimming…

I disagree with changing notch interaction… tap and hold doesn’t make sense in apple ecosystem to open an app, it’s always been tap once to open app and always been hold/Force Touch/3D touch to open sub menu/widgets, if you changed its interaction it would go against all apples other interaction rules?

You could argue dynamic is an app in its own right just it dynamically changes. When you click the island what do you want to happen or what is your expectation outside of what you think Apple makes sense?
