Music Magpie is giving me the best price for my second 16 Pro £625.
MM are giving me the best price for my 16PM as well (£700), but are now charging £50 (!) just to be able to drop the phone off at one of their Smart Kiosks. If I remember correctly, the service was £20 when it was launched, then increased to £30 and now £50? Have they upgraded the service in any meaningful way? (It's been a PITA the two times I've done it for my 14PM and 15PM).

Not that I know off. Machines in my local Asda still looks the same.

I saw that today too when getting a quote, £50 fee seems quite expensive doesn’t it.

I noticed you can do a drop off and device check at Timpsons stores for a £10 fee, which seems like a more affordable option.

I always felt nervous sending a phone in the post in pristine condition, heard a few horror stories of damage or getting your phone back scratched.
So the kiosks were great.
Won’t be using them again if they’re gonna be £50.

On a related note, is anyone aware of any Music Magpie voucher codes that work?

TECH10 and GET10EXTRA were ones that have used before. But can’t find anything obvious that works, yet.

I suppose they might do one closer to the time. :)

I’ll be coming from an iPhone 14 Pro - battery is horrific at this point and the charging port is very susceptible too for CarPlay. Debating going for the 17 Air as just want to have a thin and light phone again, now I work in office don’t need something that lasts all day as rarely away from a plug socket, and have a MagSafe battery pack anyway. Not keen on the colours mind, the blue is just an off white for me, hoping the colours are better when Apple reveal them!
