Where did you get it from? Stock seems non-existent.
Also, what do you think of the finish compared to your SBSS? Does it look like the regular aluminium?

Ordered on the day of the keynote! Came last monday

It’s an nice dark brushed finish and a nice change from the blingy ss space black. That was a fingerprint magnet which this isn’t.

Agreed, there’s many great things about it

Picture in picture
On screen widgets
AOD

All areas I would use on my iPhone. It’s great hardware but software does let it down for my needs
Also split screen apps! I still have the ceramic S10+ it’s a fab bit of tech and the finish is stunning but use it as a business phone now. Screen is still stunning and is whiter than my 11 Pro Max.

Looks stunning. Do you mind taking a few more snaps? Do you have the SB to compare in the photos?
I’m trying to decide between the two. Also, what are the edition faces like?
Thanks.
 
Collected my new Midnight Green 11 Pro today! It's really lovely, the size feels great (coming from a XS Max which ended up being just a bit too big), and the new camera is really fun to play with. The person serving us at the Apple Store was nice and very patient, even though we were going through the process of changing three iPhones on the upgrade programme.

Just waiting for it to get dark so I can try out Night Mode a bit more...
 
....ahh right!!!

Yea, you're right - thats the edge of the glass screen protector.

Unfortunately, yours has been installed so the edge rests right on the edge of the pixel area of the screen hence why you're seeing that rainbow effect. It's quite normal. You could try lifting the protector up and reinstalling but we're talking about an adjustment of literally only 1 or 2mm and you probably won't get the protector down again as cleanly!

I would leave it, depending on how bad your OCD is of course...!!
Went back to Apple today and they fitted a new screen protector. This one's perfect and no colours "peeping" over the edge of it. The first one must of been slightly off. New one is perfect.

Do Apple for glass screen protectors now? They stopped doing it before. I usually fit the glass ones myself. I can do a decent job with those but the film ones I always had to have them fitted otherwise it was bubble city😂

I haven’t really noticed any improvements in sound quality but I can see the screen is an improvement over my Xs max.

They use a machine to fit them. There’s an plastic one but the glass one is a lot better.

Somewhat strange, same delivery slot but got mine on the 25th😗. As you are not charged until they prepare for shipping, I’d just cancel and pick one up from the store

That’s a fair suggestion, however it’s showing as “unavailable for pickup” at my nearest Apple Store and as it’s a good hour away from me I’m not desperate enough to drive there on the off chance they’ve got one in stock.

I’ll just have to be patient(ish)
 
I ordered this from amazon, I downloaded an ampere from app store and it’s confusing. It tells me it’s fast charging, but when I test it, it says it’s slow charging.

it’s doing about 1% a minute which seems fast, however according to phonearena they got 24% in 15 minutes.


can anyone suggest a charging cable?

I had posted some photos earlier in this thread when I got my watch last week.

Don’t have the stainless steel anymore, but I did get to compare them in my local Apple store. They had the edition on display but none for sale

It’s more likely your charger that’s the issue here.

what chargeR are you using?

If you are looking for a specific model from specific store(s), you can setup an alert by using a telegram bot I wrote over the weekend:



This was mostly done in preparation for next years phone, but may be useful for some who still haven’t managed to get the one they want.

I don't use Telegram, but this is such a useful thing you've created there that I may just have to start!

Thanks for your help! 😀

Just ordered iPhone 11pro max midnight green. Was not going to bother this year but changed my mind. Delivers 22-29/10, so still got time to change my mind before dispatch.

Right here are the results, bottom one is cheap £3 cable from eBay, second bottom one is the link posted above, third one is ESR cable and top one is Apple cable.

They all give similar results but as you can see they say Slow charging

Gone full circle here!

iPhone X

For 11 - took 11 back and got a 11 Pro

Now returning the Pro and going back to my X

Not enough of a difference or upgrade as I hoped it would

I went from X to 11 Pro, and the difference in battery life and camera is pretty huge, that's enough reason for an upgrade imo. But each to their own

Agreed camera and battery were great, I more than likely will buy the 11 Pro in a few months time 2nd hand and get it a bit cheaper, just not enough right now to justify the price

Great work and good to see you back on here!

I still use the script you did a few years back as a basis for some of mine! Need to check out telegram over push bullet!
