Just a heads up that the inventory check app only checks the "normal" stock not the iUP stock.

I reckon the best bet is Saturday morning (8am ish?) checking the iUP stock on the app/website as the last couple of weekends all the stores seem to get a large stock update then. Otherwise you're mostly reliant on the odd phone appearing in stock at random times. That's how I got mine anyway.
Thank you both!
 
Dilemma.

I was sold on Silver because makes the cameras square island on the back disappear….however, I find the Space black better in terms of colour harmony, I really like the dark stainless steel frame…..although feel less special, more Samsung than Apple.

Thoughts?

Milton Keynes has a 1TB Gold available on iUP

Also available on standard reserve for store payment

 
Don’t even know what to do with 256GB, apart from filling it in with 48MP raw picts or 4K vid. I am not a heavy camera user.

How much you currently using?

I’ve taken a few raw pics and this is my storage.

My current 6S 64GB has circa 30GB left….

I am picking a 256GB as I want to be able to capture 4k vid.
 
I am keeping hold of my 13PM for another year, but I went with the 512GB when I purchased it. What a mug I am. Only used about 60GB and have 455GB available - that's after a years use. I reckon that will last me another 5 years at least!! lol
Next time I will buy a 256GB and won't waste the money on higher storage!

Sounds like 128gb will do.
Although rumours have that next years ultra will start at 256gb

Possibly because many are going for the 256GB as 128GB can’t capture 4k vid because Apple has decided so to avoid customers complaining about filling the memory quickly.

Pity.

I thought the same about the purple at first but after having it for a bit I realised I’ll always be a fan of the lighter colours because dust. Dust is an annoying probably for me I just see it all on darker iPhones so much! Gone for gold this year as last 2 years I’ve had silver. I love it
 
Good point on dust.

Re Space black, I like as well the fact that black frame edges blend with the screen, whereas Silver has visible frame edges when staring at the screen.

Finally, I am concerned plain stainless steel frame on Silver will be more prone to scratches than black ones. Not sure, may be wrong.

Always used my phones naked, I keep it on a protective sleeve/socket when not used.

For the 14PM I never got from Amazon I have already bought this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08LL9BCPZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Oh nice! I used to use Sena leather pockets when I owed the iPhone 4 etc 😂 I’m glad I changed my colour I actually like seeing the stainless steel band so silver or gold are the prettiest imo I get how people get attracted to the slickness of purple or the black though but deffo for me the dust was too much of an annoyance

This isn’t entirely true. You can record 60fps 4k footage on the 128gb. You just can’t record in pro res.

same really.

I pay for family storage so £6.99 a month for 2TB. On my 256GB I have only used 53GB. I plan to stay with 256GB though just so I know i never need to worry but i would never need 512GB or more that's for sure.
 
First proper run out of the new AirPods on the commute this morning and wow they’re noticeably better with noise cancellation. Could be sat in a quiet room at home it’s so silent!

Then you hear the announcements come through perfectly! It’s crazy how they’ve packed into the little little buds.

Also, not feeling that slightly odd ‘ear pressure’ sensation with these new ones.

The max battery will also get a proper run out today with a lot more streaming and use of 5g. Been getting c50% remaining this past week at the end of the day at home.

I’m looking at nearly 200GB of music in ALAC, so I changed my order from a 256 to a 512. I miss not being able to stick an SD card in for more storage.
 
I remember some people here either looking to purchase or who had already purchased an electric car.

I'm looking forward to the Polestar 3 launch event this evening (6pm) - curious to know what you make of them!
