Can someone explain what I’d need to get the best MagSafe charging for this new iPhone? I’ve currently got a 15 pro max but this new one seems to charge faster with a more powerful power adapter? So if I have an old MagSafe charger do I just need to buy a new 30W adapter and then put it with my current charger? Or will I need a new MagSafe base unit as well?
 
So the pound to dollar is now 1.35 and predicted to go upto 1.40 or more by christmas mostly because of the Trumps big beautiful bill and yet they still keep the dollar to pound ratio

they don't have to raise the prices to make more money they just don't alter the prices and keep the additional revenue.

Before anyone mentions its always been a direct dollar to pound swap i can recall afew years ago when the pound went down and apple raised prices to compensate stating the exchange rate decrease as the reason

Rant over

Iphone air looks interesting currently got the 16 pro max not sure i could do the smaller screen but its an interesting option this year.
 
I’m considering the AiR but I’m wondering if it supports pro raw for photos. Can’t see anything mentioned on the website
 
Case ordered from Apple :)
Also got a Totallee super thin clear case coming (they had a 25% offer on, though that may have finished yesterday) love their thin cases, but they take a few weeks to arrive 🙁

I know what you mean. At least it’s not gone up I guess, but certainly would have been nice to see a drop

What is the advantage of the Upgrade Programme vs the monthly payments?
The upgrade program you can straight swap and upgrade next year, only paying the initial 1 month payment. The monthly payments if you want to upgrade next year you just get the trade in value for the current phone you have taken off the price of the new one.
 
Silver 17 Pro saved in my basket ready for pre-order.

AirPods Pro 3 pre-ordered.

Black Techwoven case ordered as well as my favourite leather case from Ryan London.

Cannot wait!!!

That time of year again! 🙂

Can anybody remind me, I seem to recall if you want to try and preorder an handset outright from the Apple Store, there was previously a way to sort of preauthorise the payment method?

Or am I just imagining things and you can only save the type/model and that’s all? 🤔
 
Look what the cat dragged in! 😍

🫶🏼 How have you been my friend? Tell me immediately what (wrong) choice you're making this year then...

I am going for the iPhone 17 PM in either orange, blue or silver.

The nerves are currently building because I want to pre order the Natural Titanium Apple Watch from Amazon due to having £1000 gift card. I have normally ordered watch and cases by now 😅

Luckily the phone will come from Apple.
 
Worst pro iPhone update ever, looks more cheap than pro and no black is criminal. Still 1000nits brightness max unless you use auto brightness

You can only save the model, colour and storage option ready to pay for on pre-order day.

Have a launch day 16 Pro Max. Been offered £600 for trade-in with Apple to pay off the Barclays loan and go for the 17 Pro Max equivalent (256GB). Says I would still owe £180 to pay off the loan and start a new one. Quite a (disappointing) surprise as I don’t think I’ve ever had that before. Usually very seamless and wasn’t expecting to outlay the best part of £200 up front!

Currently have the 15 Pro Max and think I might go for the regular Pro this time around. Going from 6.7" to 6.3" doesn't seem too bad a drop in screen space for a smaller and lighter package.

The Air looks incredible, but it's a 1st gen Apple product, so I imagine the next couple of revisions will fix issues and advance features pretty aggressively. Going for the Pro on the 2 year 0% and seeing how the Air and rumoured foldable develop feels like the safe (if boring) option.
