Shame it’s only for the Pro only and not the Max too :/
“Indicative” price very appealing though, approx $1550 back for a 12 Pro Max - someone might struggle to get more than that themselves.

I thought it was for anything in the 13 range - doesn't seem to be any exclusions I could see.

Hmmm... the 2d trade-in promises $1022 for my s20+... or $779 for my SO's Note 9... tempting to switch sides for a Pro or Pro Max.

 

Especially since it looks like from the comments here the resale on iPhones is WAY better the next time I want to upgrade (which I knew already, but still).

 

Does anyone know when the instore demo models typically are available? I have a work iPhone 7, so kinda familiar with iOS, but more looking for the hardware experience.

I'm actually taking a different tact - I'll trade in my old Galaxy S7 sitting in a draw for $651 (Inc bonus) - which is only worth maybe. $100-150 on TM. So say bonus $500.

 

Then I'll just sell my wife's XS Max on TM for $700ish compared to 2D offer $1029 inc bonus.

 

 

 

Sounds complicated but hopefully it works out to getting about $1200 towards the new handset.

If you have those 2 phones and need to trade one and sell one thats the best way to do it.

 

 

 

Does anyone know when 2D gets 5G and if there will be no added cost like VF currently have?

No update for me, plus the debit hold on my credit card has dropped off.

Hi - I ordered a 13 Pro & an Apple leather case just after midnight last Friday. I just used a web browser and didn't actually get an email confirmation (that I could find) so was a little concerned until I checked the Apple Store App and saw that my order was there. Thanks for the suggestions from others about using the app - I will use that in the future.

 

The leather case arrived today - a day earlier than it was listed to arrive. The phone itself is listed as 'preparing for shipping' so I'd expect it to arrive some time Friday (when it was listed to be delivered).

 

The credit card charge didn't show up until a couple of days after I ordered the phone and it's stayed on there all week (ie. not a holding charge).





Cheers,
Mike

Ordered mine through Vodafone on Saturday morning as Apple direct stock was already gone - is anyone here privy to when they are expecting their stock and what sort of levels they have? I assumed since they were accepting pre-orders that they had some stock allocated for the initial delivery and would show some kind of stock notification if they didn't, but have since received a txt saying the order is 'held' until stock is allocated. Wondering if that means it'll be sometime soon (if not necessarily Friday) or will it not be until late October which is when Apple is suggesting next shipments would arrive?

Man i hope so, first time buying Apple pre-order or online so I shit myself when the debit has dropped off and all the funds are available in my account again.  I'm also dubious ill get it on Friday even though the order status is on 'preparing to ship' for then.  I also ordered a 20W USB-C Power adapter with the phone and that has already shipped but has an arrival time of 27-29th so maybe I'll get it phone then too 🤷‍♂️

If Apple says you’ll get it Friday 24th, then you will. They’ve never been late for me yet.
