If the eSIM transfer doesn't work (last year it didn't for many), you will need the active line and the my EE app on the new iPhone to issue a new eSIM.

If by that time you have wiped and given away your trade-in phone, you will need to walk in an EE store nearby and request an eSIM replacement (or SIM if they don't have any eSIM QR code leaflets available) and you will need your ID for that, for example a passport.

Thanks....I think I'll just go back to a normal SIM card as eSim has always been a b@llache with EE since 2018.

Much easier when you took the SIM out of your old phone and put it in your new phone.

Upgrading from a 13 Pro to a 15 Pro Max in Blue Titanium, hopefully it arrives on launch day as it says ready to despatch, also got a 15 Pro in Natural Titanium and that is definitely arriving on launch.
 
Feel a little calmer about the mess todays pre order was. SIt tight till 22nd now and see if I can get a store order, with my 02 Oct Natural 256 as a back up....
Case and glass came today, typically with the phone not coming for ages yet....
Congrats to those that got there orders in seemlessly, I will not be pre pre ordering next year as this and last was a nightmare and due to having 2 sorted with 0%, I had the ID check also delay me. Another year, another lesson learned.

Bloody heck some of the 15 Pro Max are showing early November now! I went for a normal 15 Pro in Nat Ti. Looking forward to seeing this colour in the flesh.

I think that's what's going to be hard, adjusting to the smaller screen/poorer battery.
I don't want to regret it. Decisions, decisions!

I did consider returning to the Pro size this year, my first Pro Max was my 13 which I’ve owned for the past 2 years. I decided to stick with the PM size though as I don’t think I’d like the smaller screen now. I don’t really find the size an issue in my pocket.

interesting to see into what's actually inside them: a thin layer of fabric and the rest memory foam!

FineWoven are not worth the same money as Apple's previous leather cases.

I'm now holding out for a decent third-party leather case.

Apple are jokers. I’ve been buying leather cases from them for many years and when they said they were going woven my first thought was if they would charge the same. No way I’m paying silly amounts for a leather copy cat.

I do 24 months everytime

Pay 12 months, early upgrade, pay the fee (in this case £650) and then upgrade to the new phone.

My current 14 Pro Max was £72 a month for the same plan (after the cpi RPI increase) so now I’ve paid £650 to upgrade and pay out my old contract, new plan and phone is £63 a month and then I’ll list the phone on Facebook and flog it for around £750-£800

Then hopefully £100-£150 in the bank and new iPhone and a lower monthly payment.

How did you get it for £63? I have looked online and unlimited for he max says over £90 for me.
 
When is the best times to check to see if I can pick up in store? Hopefully people cancel their orders and some stock is freed up.

Do people expect much variability between “Made in China” and “Made in India” iphones? I am coming from a iPhone 12 and I am wondering if I should play this lottery or cancel my pre-order.

Judging the amount of pre-orders and delays well in to November, I don't think many people are worried.

Don’t think people should be really: the same companies will be running the plants and the QC procedures / standards will be the same. Plus i suspect Apple are going to be diversifying a lot of manufacturing out of China over the next few years because of the political situation so it’s going to become increasingly likely that you’ll get a product made elsewhere.

So my preorder experience was relatively smooth. I tried to get on the app or website dead on 1pm. At 1.03pm I finally got into the app and it took me straight to the preorder I had saved but then my session suddenly expired. I closed the app and reopened it and had to manually go to my saved preorder which was still there.

I managed to complete my preorder using Apple Pay at 1.04pm and got an email confirmation straight after. I managed to get launch day express delivery next Friday for a 512GB Titanium Blue Pro Max. 😃👍

Mine was very similar. My saved pre-pre expired at 1:03. I then went to my original pre-pre email and clicked the link in there which took me back to it thankfully and then very smooth sailing from there on wards.

My pre pre order completely failed and the app took me back to the stores main page.

Rather than waiting I had to manually order both phones and set the collection time / date.

Luckily went through ok if a little slow, I think choosing collection actually helped me because less stuff to process. I used Apple Pay which seemed to go through ok although there’s no funds gone yet which is to be expected anyway I believe
