    They took the money on ordering. I now have paid for two iPhones and nothing to show for it. Lol.

    OK it was the SIM card, but got another notification today for delivery tomorrow so hoping thats the phone! Didn't think Vodafone would be able to deliver launch day.



  • Registered Users Posts: 271 ✭✭tomister


    Just got my shipment notification from Apple for the iPhone. Coming via DHL for me. Not visible in DHL yet



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,065 ✭✭✭FourFourRED


    Same here. Here we go! Should be here tomorrow!




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,238 ✭✭✭digiman


    Got a shipment notification from 3, only problem is I'm not sure if it will be unlocked or not. It is €130 cheaper than with apple though so worth the try.

    Has anyone got a 3 issued iPhone before, and was it locked?



  • Registered Users Posts: 480 ✭✭baalad


    Let us know what you think of the battery performance when you get the phone. I wanted the regular pro but in the end i went with the max for the battery because im doubtful i would be happy with the battery on the regular pro. Shame because i prefer the size. Pro max is borderline too wide / big but it's too hard to say no to it considering the difference in battery size



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    Shipment notification here too, due to arrive by Mon 19 Sept. Coming via UPS which I think means the phone is in the UK warehouses. Most likely delivered tomorrow when I'm not around... typical.

    Vodafone order shipped, arriving tomorrow with an post - surprised as it had gone OoS by the time I managed to put my 3rd order through (the previous 2 having been cancelled for reasons known only to vodafone's gremlins)

    Got a shipment notification from Apple direct also, wasn't supposed to be here until monday, so lets keep the fingers and toes crossed it's delivered tomorrow, eh?

    Coming via DHL also.



  • Registered Users Posts: 311 ✭✭martin_g


    Yeah DHL seems to be slower than UPS I find

    So how many of us are hitting refresh on the tracking 😂😂



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 3,765 Mod ✭✭✭✭eeloe


    meeee! :D



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,221 ✭✭✭McFly85


    Vodafone order has been shipped too, arriving in 3-5 days, not bad!



  • Administrators Posts: 54,168 Admin ✭✭✭✭✭awec


    The battery on the normal Pro will easily last a full day with plenty of room to spare.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,388 ✭✭✭Cina


    What the hell is with the Apple website? Trying to buy the watch SE and I've tried 3 addresses so far and it keeps telling me it can't verify them. Ridiculous.



  • Registered Users Posts: 502 ✭✭✭DubLad69


    Was on to harvey norman today who said that I can collect a black one tomorrow. Still hoping that selectonline ships the purple one this evening!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,309 ✭✭✭RVN10


    My purple 128gb upgrade shipped with 3 today. Has anyone upgraded and not paid for the phone yet ? Seems bizarre not to be charged yet



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,263 ✭✭✭Elessar


    Have an order with Apple but shipping not until 3rd-10th Oct....chanced my arm and ordered with Compub/SelectOnline during the week. They can't tell me if I'll get it in first batch but said they will be shipping some out this evening and you'll get an email if you're one of them, and either way tomorrow they'll send out emails if you're getting one or you'll have to wait.

    ....from my experience if you get a phone from a carrier its locked to that carrier until you finish the contract/tarrif you signed up for.



  • Registered Users Posts: 502 ✭✭✭DubLad69


    They had told me originally I would get it for certain. Then when I asked today they said they got enough for vast majority of orders, but if I am receiving it tomorrow I will receive an email by 4:30 today.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,263 ✭✭✭Elessar


    Lets hope we get filled today! When did you order?



  • Registered Users Posts: 480 ✭✭baalad


    I'm not sure. There's a video on YouTube where the pro max only managed 4hours of screen on time. Mostly using the camera and video so for most it will obviously last longer but it doesn't bode well for the regular pro imo.



  • Registered Users Posts: 480 ✭✭baalad


    Guessing you pre ordered with them as soon as they accept pre orders? They told me they had no clue when id receive mine and that the first batch was delayed by 7 days. I got the impression they had no idea what was going on because someone else from Harvey Norman told me the opposite at first. In the end i canceled with them



  • Registered Users Posts: 502 ✭✭✭DubLad69


    Tuesday, didn't receive any dispatch as of yet. Did you?

  • Registered Users Posts: 502 ✭✭✭DubLad69


    No, I didn't order mine with HN until Saturday evening.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,263 ✭✭✭Elessar




  • Registered Users Posts: 34 cshk


    Did Currys take preorders this year? My order with Apple isn’t due to deliver until 18 October so might keep an eye out for them tomorrow morning



  • Registered Users Posts: 502 ✭✭✭DubLad69


    Harvey norman website says that they have a silver 128gb available to collect in Naas today.



  • Registered Users Posts: 34 cshk

    I rang them. They said they are pre orders that haven't been collected yet. Bit stupid having them showing as available if they are paid for and held for pre orders



  • Registered Users Posts: 311 ✭✭martin_g


    Anyone’s delivery order tracking status update yet?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,065 ✭✭✭FourFourRED


    DHL just updated now and SMS sent. Delivery is for tomorrow and not Monday as expected.



  • Registered Users Posts: 311 ✭✭martin_g


    😂 yeah just updated now 👍🏻 thanks



  • Registered Users Posts: 502 ✭✭✭DubLad69


    If you'd want to take it I'd order anyway, was talking to a manager today about my order and they have an excess number of certain variants according to him. I had to change the one I had ordered or else i had to wait.



  • Registered Users Posts: 480 ✭✭baalad


    Well that would make sense given some variants are showing as available but i was specifically told that they have zero stock available. Every device that came in is on pre order and the availability is because they haven't been collected yet.

    Having said that. I honestly don't think anyone in Harvey Norman has a clue. I was told the other day id have it on the 16th and after i ordered they emailed me saying it was delayed



  • Registered Users Posts: 6 nickooo87


    Rang Harvey Norman this evening and mine is there to pick up tomorrow. Although still says back ordered on my account. They said they got a good bit of stock in.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,130 ✭✭✭ussjtrunks


    Are there any screen protectors that can’t get scratched or are really scratch resistant , do they make sapphire ones?



  • Registered Users Posts: 480 ✭✭baalad


    Oh well. I went to checkout and was told i could collect tomorrow. Rang for confirmation and was told what i said above. Just gonna wait for Apple at this point. At least i know when ill have it with apple even if it is delayed



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,799 ✭✭✭rizzee


    Rang HN today, hadn’t preordered anything as I was going to chance a walk-in tomorrow if there was stock leftover (128GB Pro - wanted any colour) - they said from their pre-orders that there will be some availability left over in all colours. I immediately got in the car and went in and paid for a Purple one, on the off chance other people had the same idea about getting one on the day. All confirmed by the staff member in store that it’ll be there for me tomorrow to collect, just need to wait on a call as per their protocol as it was technically a pre-order. Happy days!

    Are you collecting from a store where it shows availability online ? Just curious



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,291 ✭✭✭DBK1


    Ordered through vodafone this day last week, according to an post tracker mine is out for delivery today.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 946 ✭✭✭daraghwal


    Currys just went live with "FAST Delivery" within 5-7 days. Just ordered and will update on if it looks like it's coming next week or pushed out.

    Update: Got an order acknowledgement email as I ordered and said it's subject to stock availability, then 5 mins later another email confirming the order and preparing for delivery. Expected on or before 22nd September :)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,799 ✭✭✭rizzee


    I didn't even check at the time to be honest, but right now it's just showing "available to order", same with most of the locations.

    No harm ringing up when they're open as they would have already allocated the preorder stock when it came in yesterday and be able to give you an accurate count of leftovers for stock use.



  • Registered Users Posts: 19 Esoes


    😍 it has arrived



  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 3,765 Mod ✭✭✭✭eeloe


    Hoping DHL doesn't mess up my delivery today, but they probably will! :)


    Enjoy it!

    Decided on Tuesday to upgrade from my pro max 13 , to new pro max 14 256gb black

    any way ordered a black 14 pro max 256gb on Tuesday from HM

    siad processing an hour ago , contacted live chat an hour ago and they said they have stock arriving today and are going through orders and would recieve an email with a update today sometime …

    My tracking just updated to say it's in the delivery depot in Dublin.

    I doubt it's gonna make it to Waterford today, so probably looking like it's original date, of Monday. Damn it.
