They stock up randomly but you better check daily at 6AM before stores open.

thank you!!

Didn’t they get this round this last time (When we moved to Lightning), when they just made a micro USB adapter to follow the EU reg of phones being micro USB compatible?

[Edit] - Do we actually know if the new EU reg is simply compatible, or whether the legislation requires phones to have an actual USB C connection?

I do remember the micro-usb to lightning adaptor. I’m sure a usb-c to lightning one could be created.

I’m with you, it’s not clear if the device has to have a female usb-c port or if the current usb-c to lightning cable is sufficient.

Found this…

• One single charger for all mobile phones and tablets - beneficial for the environment and for consumers
• USB Type-C port will be the new standard for portable devices, offering high-quality charging and data transfers
• Buyers will be able to choose whether to purchase a new device with or without a charging device

Long-awaited common charger for mobile devices will be a reality in 2024 | News | European Parliament

Following Parliament’s approval, EU consumers will soon be able to use a single charging solution for their electronic devices.

thank you!!

But also check through the day. Stores get deliveries at different times at different locations. I’ve noticed my local store tends to stock at 10am

I think the previous EU reg was that phones must be Micro USB compatible, so Apple just made the Micro USB adapter to get round that issue.

Sorry what was the votes on ESR armourite vs the spigen ez fit again

One vote for the ESR Armorite here. I had one on my 13 Pro Max and now have one on my 14 Pro Max. I cannot fault it.

yes its been random.. I have seen in some cases stock looking like it updates in the few hours before a specific store opens. likewise at the end of business too..

that could all be coincidence though!

And as if by magic…

I have been finding from monitoring that the 6am update never really happens. I am seeing that the stock appears to update about 30 mins before a store opens and then randomly throughout the day.

So random that I keep checking inventory all day long ! 🤣

All devices must have a USB-C port for charging/power.

Looks really nice. It’s one of the best colours Apple has in their leather cases.

I think it would be a great combo with the orange wallet.

 

[Mr.C]

Anyone had any experience with the Caseology wallets. I think they’re supposed to be a quality brand and their wallets are a lot cheaper then the official Apple ones. I was thinking of getting the purple one to match my Deep Purple iPhone. I know they’re not leather but I think I actually prefer that as they’re probably much easier to clean.

The Spigen ones look nice too but not in a colour I want.

Then there is Torro as well but not in a colour I want.

Anybody seen any movement on orders due to be delivered 10 - 17 October.

I’m struggling with containing my excitement over here

My order delivery is the same as yours, and this was pre-ordered on the 9th, still no movement, but I was hoping there would be a change by now!.. getting a little impatient!
