iPhone 14/Plus UK iPhone 14/14 Plus/14 Pro/14 Pro Max Pre-release, Orders and Dispatch Thread

[RossMacca]

...have you not been using the re-locking hack on MM to keep the price locked in for longer (you'll have to look at the iPhone 13 thread for details of how to do it) ?

I only locked the price yesterday, so how do I stretch it for more than 21 days?

Case and screen protector arrived today ready for next week.

Anyone who had to redo finance have their order released yet?

mine is still on hold despite getting the approval email from barclays 😡

Yes, mine moved from on hold after pre order farce forced me to do a fresh order

By far and away the worst launch experience ever. I'm now looking at a 3-4 week wait because of that shipping page error on the app. I'll now lose out on my Music Magpie offer for my current phone, so this will end up costing me money instead of saving compared to my usual iPhone Upgrade Program. Serves me right for trying to be thrifty.

This is a blessing mate, anything you send to music magpie will be judged as broken and they'll offer you pennies for it. Horrible company.

I caved and bought the new AirPods Pro. They just popped up on Very, albeit with a 100-day lead time, though I expect that’s just a placeholder.

Only bought them cos I was able to use staff discount. We’re not supposed to get staff discount on Apple products but sometimes they forget to exempt them, although that’s often corrected very quickly. Gotta get the order in straight away.

On the Barclays Finance, when do I pay the first £49.95?

....not true.

I have sent loads of devices (phone, consoles, tablets, headphones) and they have always paid out what they quoted me.

Top company - and most on here would agree.

the armorite again? is it the same protector for the 13 and 14?

the wording on this amazon item makes me wonder

ESR Armorite Tempered-Glass Compatible with iPhone 14 Screen Protector and iPhone 13/13 Pro Screen Protector, Ultra-Tough, Easy Installation Frame, 2 Pack

Protective films for mobile phones. ESR aims to offer customers many high-quality products and satisfy the needs of all customers. To achieve this, ESR spends more time on the development and design of the products.

I actually don’t bother with the premium just the normal tampered glass

key is not to lock in but save the quote... once you 'check out' you have 21 days.

saved quotes are valid for 14 days before you then have to check out to add the 21 on today

A month on from when your phone is delivered

EE Sorted
£30 Upgrade fee
£92
- EE Discount 20%
New Monthly
£73.6

Total Yearly Cost: £913.20 this includes 1 year Apple Music with Smart benefit which would normally cost £120

iPhone 14 Pro 256GB Gold

Upgrading yearly is definitely cheaper to go with EE

Ordered a blue plus 128gb for delivery on release day. Gutted I’ve got to wait till October but hey ho.

Was going to order an apple case but don’t like any of the colours.

Anyone tried the Spigen Magfit cases? Are they any good? Currently have the Clear Magsafe from Apple but not paying £50 this year for it

 

[Grayburn]

Are you getting another pro (noting your signature...) or going to a pro max? I ask because pro max all options seem to be oct 3rd, but for pro, some options (colour/memory) are showing sept 19th to me.

Just the Pro.

Think I’ll stalk the Apple Store App over the next week and try and get a pick up and cancel my earlier order.

Thankyou

yes, please! need to see some elderberry in the flesh!

FYI to those ordering with Carphone Warehouse - apparently you're able to request a timeslot for delivery once they send your tracking number...

Gone Spigen this year - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0B23LW7NV/

Ordered my base 14 Pro from Very. Delivery showed 16/09 but the confirmation email is showing 19/09, so we shall see. I'm going to trade my 11 Pro in to Mazuma I think, currently quoting £265.

What cases is everyone going with?

 

[NARadyk]

I’m already checking if it’s dispatched when I know damn well it won’t. MUST. GET. A. LIFE.

the non Amorite with no black edge?

If you only locked in yesterday than MM would be offering you minimal value for your iPhone.

If you had locked in weeks / at least a month ago (before the keynote/leaks surfaced), you would have received at least an extra £120 for your device.

I can't 100% recall but think you have to add to basket and then back to saved items to extend the period with the same price - perhaps someone else can clarify better....

[EDIT] Seems like @Jinjin beat me to it in post #2,411

yes, there seem to be varying levels of service with DPD... apple have the bog standard 'you can't change your slot' service and others use more premium offerings where you can change or move earlier (sometimes with a fee).

they tend to be carriers and other non-apple retailers
