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

[sb22]

I always buy the clear cases from apple. These ain’t clear? WTAF 😱 it’s the only case I’ve ever found that doesn’t stain from my bright hair 🫣😩

I want the pro but I’m disappointed with the colouring. It seemed to get worse with every purchase for me 😂

The air looks lovely but I’d just drop it down the couch and never see it again

@iFone88 which Pro flavour you ordering?

 

[bevsb2]

I'm considering the Air, but otherwise will probably stick with my 16 Pro. All subject to change of course.

Anyone thinking of going naked with their 17/Air/17 Pro/Pro Max for the first time and taking out AppleCare+ instead? None of the colour/case options are doing it for me. Was hoping for a Natural Titanium, Black or something new and dark like Midnight Green.

Like the look of the Air but 1) my network doesn't support e-sim, and 2) I feel like the inferior cameras compared to the Pro Max is a deal breaker. But much prefer the colours for the Air.

Going for the 17 PM in blue, 256GB. Already ordered a Celestial Blue Sheath case from Caudabe but seriously considering it might be the year to go nakey.

Pre pre orders are live 😁

 

[RA1N1]

Just added to my pre-order(s) the APP3, very expensive month going to be indeed.

Bring back Pacific Blue , Midnignt Green & Deep Purple

The 11 Pro's Midnight Green and the iPhone 5's "Black & Slate" are god tier iPhone colours. Nothing comes close.

Yes. Always used a case, screen protector and Apple Care. Copper is my favourite colour, so I’ll go caseless orange this year. Unsure if I should go without a screen protector though.

Currently thinking if I should upgrade AirPods Pro to AirPods Pro 3 too.

If you're still on the original AirPods Pro, then I would say upgrading to the APP 3's is worth it. I noticed the difference between the APP1 and APP2, so the jump from 1 -> 3 will be even more worthwhile.

Yeah, currently using AirPods Pro 1. I have a 12 Pro Max so the trade in would pay for the new AirPods. Since we won’t get another AirPod Pro refresh for another 2-3 years, I may as well upgrade now.

I was watching the event with my other half and screamed when the orange/copper was finally revealed.

 

[RA1N1]

Oh boy, what have I done… my bank will be screaming for sure…

There are tons of other brands offering clear cases… it’s really not a big deal.

Go Big or Go Home.

 

[daindian1]

I wish they had done the anti reflective screen. But having a 16pm I can’t see a reason to upgrade tbh.

Go Big or Go Home.

I had that exact thought too! My APP2 are all scratched up from the amount of times it dropped on hard surfaces, going to retire it as my backup for my home use. But now I am tempted to get a case for the APP3

 

[fezzzer]

I was really hoping to see the eSim only version with the slightly bigger battery, but it seems that we won't be getting it

Same here in Germany
But it was pretty clear.

 

[super chimp]

Damn wish we had eSIM only, US gets two more hours of battery life (bigger battery).

If you’re that keen on the eSIM buy an Air.

I only want the bigger battery!

Rumour is that there's going to be an AirPods Pro 4 next year already, or at least an AirPods Pro 3 with significant new features including some kind of camera that will assist with Spatial Audio.

I doubt it very much.

For the Pro?

I think it’s the battery life they’re after not necessarily the eSim

 

[super chimp]

Apparently that is the rumour. It sounds like these are a stopgap. It’s the same way there’s rumoured to be a new iPad mini already with the A19.

17 Pro Max Cosmic Orange 256GB, Ultra 3 black & AirPods Pro 3 for me.
iPhone Air Cool Blue 256GB, bumper and strap for the wife.
