Can’t decide which expensive case to get. Either the torro leather case which has rubber sides instead of leather. The Caudabe sheath, another mous case or the benks case. Out of all of them the mous is the most expensive. Most of the other leather cases I’ve seen are fully leather so one drop and the leathers ruined.

If magnets are important, the clear winner is Benks.

I was all set to get a PM in natural, but bottled it at the last minute and went black as usual. Then I had buyers remorse, but glad I went black now. It’s too gold for me.
Shame as proper natural titanium would look really nice.

I think the lighting is making this appear more gold, the Apple Watch ultra looks similar in some photos and on the Apple website but in person it’s definitely not even close to gold, more of a tinted grey.

Sorry, this is a fast moving thread so didn't want my reply to get lost. What issues with the MM Kiosk have people reported? I'm due to give that a go this weekend...

I took my 14pm to one and upon checking condition, it said it couldn’t process it at the kiosk and I would have to send it in instead. Could be to do with the reflectivity of stainless steel on their camera, wouldn’t be using it again.

I had a similar experience. It read the serial number, confirmed iCloud was removed, then told me there was no device in the machine. This happened five times. Waste of a 90 minute bus ride.
 
Managed to preorder from Currys last night for Friday delivery. Downgraded my choice from Max to Standard Pro in Blue. No point in needing 256Gb for me and the anxiety of a large phone has gotten to me 🤣

Btw for anyone needing to preorder - Currys still have stock of black and blue Pros!

There is no point for any colour, if the phone is going to stay in a case. Only the rear cameras area is visible.
The colour is mostly there for the very few times that you will take it out of the case.

Exactly this, I think it was the iPhone 12 or 13 where I thought I bought it in green and 12 months later when I took it out of the case to upgrade i had forgotten I had bought blue. The lesson for me was colour was irrelevant if it’s going to be a non transparent case.

Due to pick up iPhone 15 Pro Max on launch day however I might be late for my collection slot due to work. Am I able to collect it later when I finish work?🤔

hah, I use mine without the case. And time to time admire what it looks like, feeling like a creep in process :D

Actual titanium isn’t that colour either. It’s still just marketing and a colour closer to gold really to appease the gold fans mainly. Still gets it colour from PVD.

The natural phones are PVD coated, you're right, but I don't think there is such a thing as "actual titanium colour": I have a Ti-frame mountain bike and a Ti-cased mechanical watch and they are completely different shades of grey (the photos of the natural ti phones look closer to my bike frame, if anything). I think it depends on the alloy and how polished the surface is.

Not always 6am, I checked various times to of day always managed to find some during the evening, around 7-9pm I found was optimal for Saturday pick ups. Always found them Friday night for Saturday. But like you said all dependant. I just knew that was my local stores deliveries

Last year, stock went online at 5:51am on Friday morning (the earliest slots were Saturday) - that's when I got mine. My email confirmation was at 5:53am.

I had a Watch preorder with a booked slot for the same Friday morning though, and because they processed my pickup before that watch preorder (ie, i got the email with the QR code they scan on collection) I was able to pick the phone up on the Friday too.
