Does this mean Three are the only network that will support 5G on the 12 until early next year when the other spectrums are auctioned?

Yep, it sounds like until the 700MHz (which is supported) is auctioned off Three is the only network which you can use 5G on for the new iPhones. I'm waiting for somebody else to look into it and hopefully they find i've made a mistake.

I'm with Three but i'd assume i'd need them to send me a 5G SIM? i remember with the iphone 5 you needed a 4g sim.
 
I’m on IUP, payments currently taken on 22nd of the month. The mini / max are available on 23rd Nov. Anyone know how it’s works with the next payment once you upgrade?

Really annoying release, wish they were all available at the same time in Oct.

Question...

As someone who has never pre-ordered when pre-orders open before...

Are you told an expected delivery date before you complete your order? I wouldn't want to place an order hoping/expecting it to be delivered on release day only to then get a receipt telling me it's going to be a week late.

Yes, but it may change by the time you check out.

I find that strange too with the new 1pm pre order time! But that’s fine I’m off work this week... saw Barclays doing 0% finance this time so I will switch over from Currys to this as I’ve used them before. Happy days. I have waited for a Pro 6.1 inch for so long so I’m well excited!!!!

On upgrade in store Apple will sort out all the “paperwork” with Barclays

EE, O2, Vodafone and Three use 5G NR Band n78 (3500MHz)

The iPhone 12 supports that band, am I missing something?

I am looking at MagSafe clear case and Apple logo is at centre. How they gonna do the CE marking as Apple logo is always at upper one third position with CE marking at bottom.

The below link doesn't show that they are using 3500MHz for 5G. That can mean one of two things. 1. the networks aren't currently using that frequency for 5G or 2. the website is out of date.


4G and 5G frequency bands in the UK

Each network uses a different bands and they also differ based on the type of network (2G, 3G and 4G). Check the frequencies all UK networks use in one place.

engadget think its just a 60hz not 120hz so i think i'm out again this upgrade cycle

the 12 pro max phone looks great but for me my xs max will last another year and once you've used a 120hz you don't want to buying a new phone without it IMO.
 
I just need to decide between the 12 black or blue.....I can get 2% off through my work scheme which doesnt seem a lot but £16 is better than nothing 😂
 
I'm gonna skip this year out, but my wife has her eye on the graphite Pro 256GB. She's coming from an XR, so the camera and lens upgrades will be a huge boost for her.
