Went WatchOS10 early on my S7 (I think DB2), just put it on my Ultra yesterday. Solid on both. Up to this latest Beta the S7 battery was a lot worse, now they both seem on par with WatchOS9. Maybe a tad worse, but nothing to worry about IMO.

EDIT: Just checked AWU as I wore the S7 last night to bed. AWU on wrist 2 hours, 100% still. No workouts yet though.

I don’t understand why scroll up on Digital Crown and swipe up do the same. What a wasted action.
 
I agree, I’d be skeptical buying any cases / screen protectors yet. I’ve been had with this before. Got a case early, it was ESR too and it didn’t not fit well at all. Ended up having to buy another one of the same later down the line to get a better fit.
 
Seems the higher the value the phone the higher MM charge for kiosk service. Someone mentioned a £10 fee but here they are asking for £20

think I'll stick to Royal Mail! I see they're offering a special Delivery Service now for £8.. covers over the standard £150.

the small print also says "We'll pay you the day your items arrive. It's that easy!" - I'd assume this is still them receiving it in their warehouse rather than the day Royal Mail Drop it off to them

yup.. they still insist that the royal mail tracking showing delivered doesn't mean that they have it.. so no change there


"If your order's final tracking point shows as “Delivered”, it has reached the carrier's central hub - the last stop before musicMagpie. We'll email you once your order physically reaches our warehouse."​
 
Hey all, nice to see all the usual familiar suspects again here & a few new ones! @Jinjin this thread is going to be a giant until the 15 thread starts!

After 2 years venturing to the dark side with Android, this year I'm looking forward to jumping ship back to iOS and the full Apple ecosystem. My other Apple stuff will look forward syncing with an iPhone again!

Going for the 15 Pro Max or Ultra if under a new moniker this year. Sensible head is thinking a 14 Pro Max is a financially better idea but I know I won't resist the shiny new toy come September; especially with lightweight titanium, USB-C port & rapid 20Gb/s to 40Gb/s speed, improved wireless charging plus the periscope camera. Hopefully no October rumoured delays to the flagship.

Saying goodbye to my Galaxy watch too & hello to the new Watch Ultra v2.

I'm also based in Italy now so will have to decide whether the UK prices are worth a trip back to London or I pay the European prices here. May not be much in it, both 'ultra' expensive either way!

£150 cover for a circa £800 device? Not for me I’m afraid.

Welcome back.. to both the thread and iphones! Yes, this thread is going to be huge

Interesting dilemma being in Italy now! I’d take the hit on the euro if it meant I lived there though
 

Black or Grey for me I think

They all look a bit flat.. the pro colours always seem to ‘pop’ more than what these show.

I could even be tempted to go white with the titanium band! Will look like the car too

Will hope there are some quick after event hands-on videos that drop after the event! Then it will be making a quick decision before pre-pre

Hence why it looks like they now have the £8 Royal Mail option now for over £150.. though doesn’t say what the upper limit is.

Have always used the free MM and that been trading in much more expensive Mac’s too, never had an issue
