iPhone 14/Plus UK iPhone 14/14 Plus/14 Pro/14 Pro Max Pre-release, Orders and Dispatch Thread

[CD3660]

will need about £1600 at this rate for one!

My 14 Pro Max 256GB is costing only about £20 short of that (including AppleCare + with loss and theft) as it is.

Let’s just hope that the £/$ exchange rate is a LOT better next year.

If the exchange rate was better, do we think Apple would reduce the price for us?

Nope nothing at all, Royal Mail tracking still says "We've got it" and no scan since early last Saturday. I've got a feeling it's lost now at this point.

when was the 7 working days up? guess its next Wednesday to can make the claim?

 

[Macsidia]

At 1pm I'll be getting ready for Pre-Order work.

so who is going the carrier route this year? tempted by annual upgrade again just for the lack of hassle.

Last time I was tempted they really let me down on delivery delays so nope. Plus the prices are usually eye watering. Less painful to just see the sim only charge come off monthly.

Can someone please explain to me how the cameras work on the new iPhones? So its 48MP and new bigger sensor but it compresses down to a 12MP quality camera something like that? Is it to save space? And whats binning and quad pixel or something? I am so lost with this…

And they went over this aspect to fast in the keynote they didn’t really make a big deal out of it…

I'll be rocking this bad boy for a few days in the gap between my 13 Pro trade in and the arrival of my 14!

Oof! 5s right? And here I was complaining about the SE I’ll be using after today. Good luck!

Sorted here too!

Or if we get a VAT cut before next Friday. It's been suggested something might be done to VAT next week as they are going to do a September budget?

 

[Jinjin]

Yeah Wednesday at the earliest. Good job i've got the receipt

Hopefully it’s all sorted quickly for you. Of it just turns up super late

We all start with the gun....

They did last year. It was 949 and 1049 for the Pro and Pro Max, respectively. Pretty sure it was 999 and 1099 the year before?

I don’t think they review it more often than when they are actually launching a new product so don’t expect a price reduction on the iPhone before September 2023. Even then the exchange rate may be no better sadly.

show us will ya!

I'm not at home. Neighbour signed for it for me! Somebody else will post theirs hopefully!

the likeihood of an improvement in £ v$ in a year is unlikely too given the recession (in all but name yet) we're in

All you need to remember is that the cameras are ‘magical’.

Vouchers came in £100 separately 😅 - assume this will be fine if I add them into my account and pay with the balance?

No apple store app on Android 🙃
Gonna have to pitch up in a coffee shop and get the iPad out to order on their dial up speeds

Yep get them added ready it then just shows the balance. Better than applying individually.
