Odd question, but if anyone is getting it delivered by UPS, what's the weight of the package?

The weight stamped on the box from UPS is .5kg

Nice hopefully in stock at Argos in the next few weeks

They have a habit of charging more than what Apple charge for things.

FaceID update.

Right, as people will have read earlier in the post i was having serious issues with FaceID barely working 50% of the time, gave it a few days to see if it "learned" me a bit more.

Gave in a reset FaceID and the issues are gone, now it unlocks EVERYTIME. Flawless now.

Face ID is brilliant, always unlocks before i even swipe once i look at it.:)

Seems these are getting delivered quicker than promised - My wife had 20 days and its out for delivery after 6 days.

Every iPhone i have ordered from Apple over the years always came before the estimated date

Cheers, I must be the only unlucky one in this thread that still stuck In Progress purgatory.

iCloud Keychain + Safari Autofill might be worth looking at again now that FaceID is here. I’d passed on it before but have a look at this video, I’ve enabled it now, it’s seriously impressive. Still love 1Password but this is just a great extra and it’s free and integrated throughout iOS.

Pretty nice implementation indeed. It’s a shame iCloud Keychain is a bit limited compared to something like 1Password though. The later is much better to maintain your list of credentials.

Mine has just changed to "preparing to ship" - was at 8:13 so maybe this week then?

Just updated to Preparing for Dispatch.
Woot.

It's with UPS. Hopefully don't have any of the issues some have reported on the thread.

Make sure you don’t complain about it if you do. Could start a war.

digiman

Has anyone seen any really good quality running armbands for this yet?

Yeah thought that when mine arrived. Screen is definitely thinner. It’ll be great in the hand I hope.

Yeah. I got the apple leather saddle brown. It fits perfectly into my 7 Plus case with room to spare up top.

Once it was preparing to ship it then dispatched the same day and arrived the next day. Phone arrived this afternoon via ups. No hassle at all. The courier called me to make sure I was home.

I’m coming from the 7 and it’s definitely noticeably heavier and I also notice the thickness. It’s okay though. Not a show stopper for me. I am looking forward to Apple making its phones thinner again.

This screen is just bloody marvellous. Looking at the 7 screen now and the 7 looks so blue and washed out. True Tone, though can be overly aggressive at times in shifting the screen too far into yellow. If I turn off True Tone the screen is as blue as the 7.

Notch is a none event.

Got a thin black matte case. Mainly to hide the camera bump.

So far so good.

Have any people any dealing with Gadget insurance or mobilephoneinsurancedirect.ie. In the past i always got the apple care but this time im getting cover from either of the insurance companies.

I went with mobilephoneinsurancedirect, in part due their comically long domain name, but also because they were the only ones to cover a 265GB X

Just the Apple leather one. In Saddle Brown. I love how it ages and gets darker.
