Amazon has officially lost my 14PM.....obviously stolen.

The best they can offer me is £50 gift card on top of refund. No replacement as product is now out of stock.

As I have a large amount of credit on gift card, used for the payment, there could be issues in buying apple gift cards as occurred to one of the users in this forum...that's why I was ok with ordering from Amazon.

:(

Oh no ☹️ so sorry to hear. Amazon are utterly ***** when it comes to handling problems like this. Is it worth trying to sell on the credit so you can purchase one from elsewhere?

That’s really annoying and disappointing. I guess that’s the risk with high value items. I’m sorry you’ve had to experience that. Obviously having used gift cards it’s not possible to try and buy elsewhere. Hopefully Amazon get them back in stock soon.

Save the gift cards for iPhone 15. Just go buy it from Apple. Im already over the iPhone 14 Pro pre order and launch day excitement and calculating my numbers come next September so i can pay off my existing contracts.

Just Do It.

I think I’d be tempted if I could use it alongside iCloud

You can use it alongside. In fact it shows in iMazing when your last backup to iCloud was.

It does incremental backups as well kind of like Time Machine and you can access a lot of the data in the backups.
The backups also use the same encryption key as Finder backups. If you have finder backups you can also load these into iMazing and restore them. Also backs up over Wi-Fi once a USB backup has taken place.

I use iMazing for all backups/restore erasing of device.

The best license is the universal all devices.

Also it allows you to change the location of your backups per device. I have all mine going to external storage.

Get them to refund the gift cards to you as cash as their screw up.
 
Changed my 7 for a 6 today. Much happier with the fit now.

Was chatting to the guy at Apple as he saw the Hermes face and started telling me how most Apple Watch sales are the aluminium ones. Said even the stainless steel didn’t sell in any numbers.

Did say that he ultra has been flying off the shelves though
I'm pleased you found the correct sized strap, hopefully yours won't stretch too much like mine did because of my big hands 😂

Haha will see how it goes the next 13 days. You’re right, whilst the 6 is a snug fit I’m having to stretch it a lot more to get on.. could end up being pulled wider than the size 7 did
 
Battery life on the plus is belter. Took it off charge at 8am yesterday, when I put it back on charge at 1am it was at 36%. And I’m a heavy user.

Rebuy are offering £465 for my 13. But never used them before. Seen a few posts here and assume they’re okay?

Yeah loving the battery on my 14 plus. I’m also a heavy user. Nearly 10 hours use and 41% last night.

Today I have been awake since 7am and on 61% with 4 hours 35 minutes screen time! Have been out and about more today along with some weaker signal areas.

I sold my 13 for £465 to music magpie. Used a kiosk in Asda and had the money in my bank 15 minutes later.

Would you not consider private selling for more money?

Regarding iUP…

Can you remind me for how long the reservation is kept? Do I get to chose a slot?
Is the payment done at the Store or in advance?

Payment instore by whatever means.
Reservation is generally only open for the slot you select.

Thanks, is there a generic max time window from when placing the reservation (e.g. 24h) or can I pick a slot later in the week?
 
So I went to an Apple Store and my Deep Purple PM has been sent back.

I rock my regular Pro in its Ink leather case and couldn't be happier !

Now with the difference in price... maybe it's time to watch some AirPods 2 reviews :cool:
 
Going by this years timeline we should lock in our prices around the week of 21st August. A pure guess based on this year and the above would be:

22/23 Aug - Event announced
5/6 Sept - Event happens
8 Sept - Pre-orders open
15 Sept - Launch day

Or this was a planned leak by Apple and whoever has leaked this has already been fired. Or this was all made up lol
