Mine too. I hope they use DPD so that I can change the delivery date - I have a flight fri morning
I hope so too.
Last year I had one delivered by DPD and one by DHL lol.
Lets see what they do this year.
Shall do! Might stick it up on eBay on Friday since I have another week for MM.Keep us posted, be interesting to know
My 17 PM preparing to ship, yay!
Wife's Air declined payment notification, boo!
She wasn't happy, lol. Rang the bank and said no prob their end, ring Apple.
She rang Apple who didn't know why declined so took payment via card instead of ApplePay.
After getting off the phone she had a security confirm text which I think was for the first attempt and would have all been fine if waited. 🤪
Will wait to see what happens but she'll cancel and I'll order it for her if anymore probs. Still delivery on the 19th for her phone at the moment.

Vs the cheaper one.. I don’t have that one, but yeah, looks like it doesn’t have the stand or impact protection. Plus I like the white details on the air, the writing, less so, but t dots and lines I like, plus the “busier” aesthetic. The other one is a simpler cleaner look if that’s what you want though.
In terms of plasticky, I wouldn’t say so. The back is a sort of soft finish plastic and the bumpers like mini versions of the slightly rubbery air bits you get in some “air” trainers. The sides and bezel bit are very soft touch, not quite silicone, but more a soft finish tpu kind of material.
Looking forward to seeing all of the reviews in the week. That’ll help pass some of the time till launch.
In some countries you've now no choice as the banks are doing away with their online banking websites. App or branch only.I work in cybersecurity too, and there's no way I’d ever install a banking app on my phone.
It's looking like it'll probably end up being the regular 17 or Air for me. I’m not fussed about having it on release day so I will look out for the reviews from the usual media and first impressions from the general public before pulling the trigger. The base phone seems like the best option but the Air keeps calling out to me.
I'm a bit surprised to see that there is still stock for day 1 delivery for all colours of the Air except Cloud White, tbh I expected it to sell out on day 1 of preorders.

I've had a dark brown leather one on my 16 pro max all year, survived quite a few drops and still looks great. Just ordered one for the 17 pro max in saddle brown.
Does anyone on here get the RhinoShield cases? Definitely my favourite brand for cases and the MagSafe magnet is much stronger than any case I’ve bought, including Apples.
Oh snap? Who are they with? HSBC?
I called them to unblock it and make sure that when Apple request the payment, it is not to be declined ever.
Mine is ok as the credit card is empty anyway but I currently have 2 pending transactions, if I was close to limit or on a debit card I'd have been screwed. I'm sure it'll sort out once the pending transaction clear but very strange
This is very strange. The last time this happened to me was when I tried ordering the iPhone XS, and lost my delivery date (it was launch day), never in the future buys.
