I bought the Apple original leather case but it’s hampering use of the mute button with big fingers, I see this getting scratched with nails over time, I have attached some pics of the Apple case compared to my silicon case that cost £9.98 on a deal, not only that it came with 3 free screen protectors and lens protectors, deal was posted on here.

I may return the Apple case as the edging is awful as well, it is so thin and doesn’t wrap around the screen edge, see pics compared to the silicon. Going to buy the Nodus case that is magnetic so I can use it with my car mount AND touch chargers, I have had them before and they are stunning, smell and feel lovely too 😉. My Apple leather case looks like 95% cheap plastic, doesn’t look or feel like leather and smells of glue 🙄


If anyone is interested if you use NODUS10 at checkout you get £3.99 extra off 😉

Loving the photos everyone! Also pleased to see from the supply chain that lots of stock seem to be available in my local stores at least. When the 12 / 12 Pro launched it was touch and go!
 
Brother's 12 Pro Max in Silver is here and it is quite big. However, even with my small hands, one handed use is a possibility. Now time to wait for my Pacific Blue although im debating whether I made the correct decision getting Blue... Love the silver sides on the Silver but can't stand the back and the gold one is quite nice... Arghhh.
I had the same issue. Ordered the PB for pickup at the Apple Store, and told them I wanted to switch to silver. I love the gold too.
 
90/148

DHL making good progress albeit he’s been at 90 for a while, guessing on a lunch break!

Just finished setting up the phone. I went with the gold and an Apple silicone case in blue. It’s such a nice combo. With the case on there’s a fine ring of gold around the phone that flashed through.

I also set up the phone using the direct phone transfer. It was super easy. I’m on 14.2 so normally have to set up as new and then install the update and then restore the phone. This time it did it all in one step. Took about 30 minutes from turning the phone on to being setup with all my setting and everything downloaded from iCloud. Even transferring the esim was painless.

best part is this is my first 5G phone and the speeds I’m getting here are brilliant!

Yay finally DPD... Nicky will deliver your package between 15:42 and 16:42, I can know stop hitting the refresh button. 😅Now just waiting on Hermes to update me on their delivery of my Mous iPhone case 😬
 
Whoop! my pro max has arrived! Setting up currently :) As it turned out I was awaiting both DHL and DPD today and they came within an hour of each other (DPD at 12:30 with a watch strap and DHL with the phone). I did wish I had DPD for the phone, but to be fair while they came within the allotted time, there was no map or tracking for me, whereas I felt that DHL kept me well informed and turned up right at the begging of thier slot
