iPhone 16 (Plus, Pro Max and Pro)

Crazy. Yeah, experienced that years ago too. Nothing has changed. And they have the gaul to increase their bill pay year on year by the CPI plus a margin!!!

I have. Guess what I was told. You can’t pre order a phone over the phone.

While I agree probably the majority of people won't care. But I think they notice better photos and video even if they don't know why.

I would be a person who would be interested in mobile cameras and decided to not to upgrade a DSLR to use my mobile. But even though I see the quality of the iPhone product I think it's a ridiculous price for a mobile. I don't have an iPhone.

But I'm curious why YOU would buy a pro if not into the cameras. What drew you to it.

it’s a truthful statement, have you looked at night photos taken on a Samsung S23/24? Or the 100 zoom ? And I carry both an Apple 12 and Samsung 23 in my pocket, the Apple for work stuff and the Samsung for photos.

Just traded the S23 ultra for a S24 ultra in the USA, $520 :):)

which one of those was released in 2015 like the post I quoted.

Anyone successfully order the 16 with Vodafone as part of an upgrade or are they only allowing preorders for new customers?

Recently got a new official apple replacement battery for kid's 11 pro (my old one), says it's like a brand new phone, faster, no lag, signal better, data speeds better. Really does seem to improve them.

As it happens, wife is getting an upgrade to a 16 net week, I'm getting her 15, so kid is getting my 13, which doesn't need a battery yet (honestly, best performance on battery ever), but probably soon will given kid's usage so I'll get an official one done before handing it over.

Have had the old phone repair shop jobs before and there is a difference. worth paying the extra for ($100/€92 at the time)

Ordered a 128GB black iPhone 16 for my son and a jet black 42mm Series 10 GPS Watch for me. Both arriving Friday. (Watch has been preparing for delivery since 10 September - how long can the prep take?!?)

where did you get your battery replaced?

I ordered a black 16 pro 256gb from three,the otterbox for it arrived today,wonder will three deliver friday or monday?

got a WhatsApp from dhl with my shipping info too also pushed back a date to the 24th, thought it might sneak up to tomorrow as opposed to slipping a day.

Very same here. Ordered the second it went on sale. I don’t mind the Monday delivery if I knew for sure it would be Monday and not tomorrow as I have someone organised to house sit Friday so they can take the delivery. Don’t need them to if it’s not coming til Monday ….

Why people need to get their hands on a new iPhone exactly on release date? A week later does not work? Genuine question.

256GB Natural Titanium ordered from Harvey Norman only one other preorder in store in Carrickmines so hopefully will get it tomorrow.

Santy

Apple Store app still saying phone and watch arriving tomorrow, but WhatsApp from DHL is saying it'll be Monday. Bah.

You're completely misunderstanding the complications and logistics of getting millions of products to millions of addresses on one particular day.

In Regards to AI on the I phone 16, if I buy one in Belfast would I have the function here in the Republic on that phone. Also if I buy here will thst phone be compatible for AI whenever it becomes available in the EU. I'm not tech savy so apologies if my queries appear to be silly. TIA

Store manager just told me my order is there from 9.30am tomorrow.

Better be!

I haven't got my dpd email yet,so I guess mine won't be coming tomorrow :/

Had 3 failed orders on Vodafone, money taken each time and still not refunded. I really hope I don’t need to be phoning them up to get the money back, but it’s been a week now.

Ordered from Apple but it’s saying 25-30th, money was just taken from my account there now, maybe a slight chance it will arrive tomorrow!! It’s still saying that it’s preparing for shipping and no tracking number so I guess that’s unlikely.

I’m an existing Vodafone bill pay customer and had an upgrade. I tried to preorder online every day since Friday and the site kept crashing at the review order stage. I rang them - they aren’t taking preorders over the phone and you had to go into a store, pay a €50 deposit to preorder!!!

I think most will get their items today and it's a DHL thing not Apple. I've ordered a watch and got message via what's app that my item will be delivered by the 23rd. Apple App still showed today.

Last night my watch was processed in East Midlands Airport and arrived in Dublin today and is now out for delivery and new message received from DHL so all good.
