Other UK iPhone Air /17/17 Pro/ 17 Max/ Pre-Release, Order And Dispatch Thread

[RA1N1]

Question for those with a new phone about the new front camera.

If you press the zoom out button, it disables Centre Stage. Fine... but do you have to manually turn it back on (Auto Zoom and Auto Rotate) every time? Bit annoying if so - I'd prefer it to turn back on when you reopen the app at least?

Yes, I think it’s a bug or a feature, there is a lot of mess going with iOS26.

Well according to the members here, the consensus is that people are swapping out their Pro’s for the Air.

I wonder why?! 😉

Because they can’t afford the pros?

Is anyone noticing better mobile network signal with their Air when compared with their old phones?

I don't own one (yet?), but it's something I'm very interested in.

Not really.

Coming from 15 Pro

DHL Parcel (UK Mail) who it used to be merged with Evri and the contract was given to DHL Express for the first time and they haven't been prepared for it by the looks of it

They definitely haven’t prepared, many of us who had a delivery by DHL is very much delayed than the timeslot was given. I think they are in a transition points and this was the first overhaul of a major release which it was completely messed up in their end.

Yes, not really either, and I am coming from the 14PM.

My blue 17PM is all set up now, it looks a lot better in person than it did in the images tbh.

😂… no, most likely because when you compare them side by side the Air makes the Pro’s look like Temu iPhones.

Yes it does, the photos doesn’t do it justice.

Thanks for confirming. I have a 12 Pro so anything from this year's release is bound to be better, but I think if signal is that important to you, the Pro will have to be the one to get.

The fun starts again tomorrow though

And Wednesday 😵‍💫

Mine just arrived. Unfortunately I’m on nightshift but got the text from home that it came. Guy who dropped it off still has 10 more to go.

Hopefully you will enjoy the experience as we have most of us today enjoyed.

He isn’t wrong to some sense.

I have a feeling a few will regret their choice in few months, I might also be wrong.

I will forget the air exists in a couple of days when I log off this forum.

My iPhone Air just arrived via Taxi
Am just outside Lisburn Northern Ireland
Taxi driver said DHL was ‘in panic’ earlier and called the taxi company as they must have the phones delivered that day.

Now, that’s not nice! That said, will you return for next years pre-order?

If Apple announce the fold next year, oh boy… I will need few extra pants to change, i’ll wet myself

Oh wow, they are really hammered. Good on them to find a solution.

I’ll be back, I do wonder when the time will come when I stop upgrading every year, 12 years in so far.

Was it a normal taxi or Uber?!

Never ends, but I find 1 year my upgrade and next is the misses upgrade, is the perfect cycle.

Uber taxi I would imagine.
