Anyone who has purchased the gold do you think its a little bit feminine? Its lovely but think its a slight bit pink(ish)

Am sure I seen that mentioned that the gold is a little pink. Hoping not too much like rose gold as I have ordered the watch in gold aluminium but we shall see this afternoon when it arrives .............
 
Just got mine :)

Well I haven’t got my 8am pick up phone.
Daughter missed her school bus so I had to ferry her to school then get to work. So intending to leave early from work and pick it upon my way home.
Based on azzin’s experience I’m getting the box opened whilst I’m there...

Are you sure it’ll still be there for you?

In previous years they released reserved stock a couple of hours after a no-show to walk in customers.

i assume the forums were down for the past 10 minutes

they’ve been a bit glitchy and failing to load for about 30 minutes for me.

As much as I like the look and feel of the gold I’ve just picked up the Cosmos Blue leather case from the Apple Store. Makes for a great combo

...I too was initially gonna opt for a leather case but when I actually had a feel of one in store this morning, it was slippery as hell, so bought the silicone one instead. The leather of my current iPhone 7 leather case is not slippery however, perhaps it has a year's worth of ground in oils!! I will no doubt end up switching out my silicone case as I have to admit - I AM an iPhone case JUNKIE!!!!
:p

Yep - if I recall, it’ll gain some grip over time. But this ones actually not too bad

Guys, I added the iPX in 256gb to my favourites in the Apple Store App, but how to refresh the product page when the pre orders start?
 
I was also in the Apple Store Kingston when you posted this. Did you find the customer service and general running of pickups extremely bad and disappointing.

They messed my order up and took payment in store, I'd already paid online and I had to have it all refunded and put on a new card as the refund would take 3-5 days.
Yes, it was shocking on several levels.

I’ll post details later.

I will go mental if it’s not!!
 
I bought the USB-C to Lightening cable and plan to use it with my 85W MacBook charger. It just charged from 73 to 85 in about 8 minutes.
 
I do yes. Hopefully it was worth the outlay. Been benefitting for a while with my iPad Pro

Going to get one on payday

Don’t want to spend £74 on it but will need it for the x and it would be handy for my pro

How much faster charge you get with your pro?
 
Not looking good for people waiting for the iphone x if theres lots of stock of the 8 that must mean people are waiting for the x. last year this thread was full of people complaining not getting one due to one reason or another. I don't think i've seen one person say they haven't got what they ordered looks like theres plenty of stock available at apple stores.

While i'm happy people have got what they ordered it does indicate the x will be very similar to last years debacle of a launch.

Well, Ive already packed up the iPhone 8 I received this morning, ready for return to Apple. I just don’t see any improvements over the 7 Plus that I have. Admittedly, I did get an 8 and it seemed ridiculously small compared to my Plus but there just did not seem to be any great improvements. I’m going to hold on for the X which does look like a “new” iPhone. I don’t want to put anyone off getting the 8 or 8 Plus but this is just my opinion. I also got a gold one that Ive never had before and again I wast impressed with this either.
