Nope, the stupid thing had free apple care plus until the 22nd up top, now it’s saying apple care plus expires today. 🤔

Sigh, looks like a phone call to apple support is needed once they open.

Our stupid government had to introduce this 7 days complementary apple care + 🤦‍♂️
What am I missing? Your coverage says expires September 23rd, 2023?

Yeah! Be very careful with it. Or else your band is going to look like mine. The leather will be destroyed and color will fade. You just have to be careful with them. Stay away from any liquid or Water. No problem!
Thanks for this information, I’m definitely returning my midnight band now 🙏

Baltic blue watch band ain’t going nowhere though lol.

@Boardiesboi & @TheYayAreaLiving how well do these leather links watch bands hold up to rain?

Pissing down rain here today, first weekend out of lockdown 😃 Taco Bell here I come 😂
Nah don’t get it wet lol Leather and water aren’t friends and the leather will stain.

We need to start a petition so apple bring them back, loving my new leather links watch bands, them magnets do make them heavy though.

@beach bum Also need to start a petition for this notch, what the heck were they thinking, stands out like a sore thumb. 🤦‍♂️

Unfortunately, I do not think that the notch is going away any time soon. I mean, the 2nd generation of the aluminum uni-body’s were unchanged for over 10 years, and with this new design that Apple has introduced, the history/math speaks for itself.

I think that you are going to have to resign yourself with the fact that the notch will be around for at least the next 5-10 years. Can you go that long without updating your gear? Oh, and I do not want to hear you say that you will consider another manufacturer if Apple doesn’t remove the notch!

Looks like a iconic piece of eyebrow, not jewellery 🤦‍♂️ looks so wrong on a MacBook, stands out even more on that larger display.


I will never get use to it. 🤦‍♂️ the iPhone 13 pro max has a smaller screen, your eyes are always looking at the middle of the display on a iPhone, I'll be seeing that hideous notch every time I access the menu bar or safari address bar. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️


It's still a awesome machine, you're going to love it, but it's ruined for me.
The mind is a powerful thing 🧠. As soon as you tell yourself—and keep telling yourself, that there is no notch (Keanu Reeves voice—Matrix) you will no longer see the notch 😁😜.

Start practicing 🤣🤣 and soon you will believe.

Thank you for explaining it in a very detailed and professional manner. I tried telling him but he’s not having any of it. Let’s see what he has to say after reading your comment.
