iPhone 13 Pro traded in at a Music Magpie kiosk. Very very impressive service.

Only hitch was that my offer was lowered by £38 because I’d supposedly gone over the 21 days. Checked my emails and it was 15 days max, so I rang the support number on the machine, and the lady apologised and promised if I accepted that they’d send the different in a separate payment. She sent an email to confirm that too.

Got the first payment into my PayPal within 2 mins so hopefully the other £38 isn’t far behind but honestly just much happier doing that instead of sending the phone by mail.

Yep, same happened to me. Extra payment came day after.

Just remembered I now need to get a refund for the AppleCare on the iPhone I’ve just got rid of… is that easy to do?
 
So got my airpods pro 2 from Yodel at about half 2. I bloody love them! They have so much base! The noise cancellation and transparancy modes are great too! I also discovered, if you have spacial audio turned on and you're on a facetime audio call, the person will move around your head with the spacial audio, it's great!
 
good luck with finding a Jon to sell it in 2 years time....
Dude not everyone sells their stuff on every new upgrade. These will be good for at least 3 years and then I’ll just hand mine to someone in the family or put them in a draw. I just give my first gen ones to my sister.

I’ve not set the spacial audio up yet but from what I’ve read it’s not just a gimmick so looking forward to testing that later.

the set up was a bit of a faff I found, rotating your hear, showing your ears... I don't think I did it right!

might reset it and try again later

There’s some spacial audio tests on YouTube I think - not sure if they’re any good though!
 
This is wildly off topic but anyone with experience with a good place to sell used MacBooks? Bit higher value item than AirPods so I'm hesitant to go with CEX...
 
I’m probably late to the party with this one, but just noticed the custom engraving on my AirPods appears on the pop up screen on my phone.

Now that is smart.
 
you don't get that message if you fork out for an apple original product! 🤣
I’m considering sending this one back TBH, as it just doesn’t seem to put out a decent charge.

It’s now flat, so gave me roughly 35% to 80% charge, which I don’t think is that great.

Do we know what mAh capacity the Applmagsafe charging battery is (The Anker is a 5000mAh)?

[Edit-Courtesy of Macworld]
The Apple MagSafe Battery Pack has a 1,460mAh battery capacity. An iPhone 12 mini’s internal battery is rated at 2,227mAh, an iPhone 13 at 3,227mAh, and a 13 Pro Max at 4,352mAh.
 
Are the AirPods Pro (1st Gen) also getting an upgrade to its ANC quality? Apparently a new update will come later this fall which will make the ANC on par with AirPods Pro (2nd Gen).

Personally I’d private sell even if it’s through Facebook market place or gumtree I’ve sold iMacs via these ways before

So, the Apple pack gives out “up to 40% additional charge with iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Plus or iPhone 14 Pro Max and MagSafe Battery Pack*”
 
It's almost 7pm and I still don't have hands on AirPods... (first world problems, I know...) This is exactly why I chose to pick up the iPhone in store last Friday haha

Favour to ask: could someone test something with the watch/phone for me? As follows:
  • In the Watch app on the phone, go into settings > general > airplane mode and toggle “mirror iPhone” on
  • Try turning on airplane mode on the phone and see if it is mirrored to the watch
Doesn’t work on mine (discovered that when flying yesterday): if I turn airplane mode on/off on the watch it mirrors to the phone, but neither mirrors from the phone to the watch. Have reported it as a bug to Apple but be interested to know if it’s a general problem or just me…
 
Out of curiosity did anyone experience that the phone out of box when setting up you get given should be the correct region at the top… did anyone get somewhere different? I was setting up the iPhone 14 pro I preordered and gave to my dad and the region was Germany
