The funny thing with the max is that for the same text size setting, the text on the max is no bigger than the normal pro. I was surprised by this and assumed I would get bigger text on the max. The advantage of the max of course though is that for a given text size you get more on the screen which I prefer

just no more rows or columns of apps in the Home Screen!

I have an APC UPS - literally just use it for my editing SSD drive array, and my modem/router equipment.
My home alarm system is mostly wireless and battery powered, with the main unit having a built in battery with backup mobile connectivity.

Crazy that we have to be considering power outages in this day and age.

its this day and age which is one of the contributing factors too!

Can someone do be a favour please.

The stock checker app is mac only I believe so I can’t use it.

I know, and I'm grateful for that! 😅

It's my fault too... I read the thread every day and post about once a month if that! There was/is another UK thread but it's not so popular. Forum rules restrict threads like this to only being made 'on' the announcement of a product.

If only we could have a general UK Apple excitement thread, ongoing for those who have questions and deliveries through the year and 'chaptered' the 'show of your apple watch' thread which has been ongoing since 2015

So my order has finally moved into preparing to ship. How long after it moved to this did people receive their phones?

I’m hoping I can get it Monday as I go away on Tuesday (family member will come over to sign for it if not).

This thread will stay alive until the announcement next year. It will die off in the next few weeks and probably pick up around WWDC again.

At last, we have progress after 4 weeks. My order was placed 12 hours after the window had opened, but it appears that my 14 Pro will be here next week.

I had also received today, a Magsafe Duo charger, a 20W charger and a watch strap. They were all on the same order, but came on 2 separate deliveries on the same day from DPD. The second driver said that double deliveries happen regularly, but their management don't seem to listen.

Patiently waiting for movement on my October 14 - 21 window, ordered direct from Apple on several occasions but never on a new release so the wait has been quite something!
 
Spent the lest few hours transferring data and settings over to my new 14 plus.

First impressions.... love it.

Speakers are way better, battery still on 100% after 2 hours, granted I haven't done much.

Ive turned off all the settings, location services etc that I don't need/want... Also ive decided to use the old 5 watt charger as I tend to charge over night anyway.

Hopefully this phone will last me the next 4-5 years.

Great, sure you’ll be plenty happy with it over that time!
