Other UK iPhone 15/15 Plus/15 Pro/15 Pro Max Pre-release, Orders and Dispatch Thread

Picked my black Pro Max from Glasgow Buchanan street this afternoon without issue. Place was very busy but got it home and now setup.

Doesn’t feel as big as I thought it would coming from a 12 Pro.

Has anyone applied a Spigen EZ Fit screen protector to a iPhone 15 Pro - can you show picture of how it looks? I've not put mine on yet.

Yes I applied it. Had them on my 13PM and had the same one for two years. Think they are excellent. With my Spiegen case no exposed screen at all. Will try and take a pic.

If anyone got the blue titanium, how do you like the color in person?

I love it. I did check in store, very close to the colour of the MacBook.

I made that mistake - Opted for phone to phone transfer because it estimated 25 Mins, however once I started the process it said 2 hours. Right pain as I now have to wait to transfer my old series 6 to my new Watch Ultra 2. Oh well not the end of the world. If you want to use your new iPhone as quickly as possible, iCloud backup is quicker to get access to your phone, but will take longer to download your data in the background.

My iCloud transfer is taking for friggin' ever. Half an hour ago, the estimated time was 39 minutes, now it's telling me 26 minutes to go.

I think the servers are getting a proper workout now.

I’ve come from a 12 pro max (15 pro max now) and the weight is identical so I was thinking it would feel similar. I know it’s been talked about a lot but I can’t believe how different it feels to hold and use. It’s such a massive step forward. I have an apple clear case but I’m tempted not to use it

Benks Armor Air case and Benks screen protector. The case has a small lip on the corners of the screen.

Where have you got that specific case from?
I like how slim it is with cutouts for buttons.. can you provide a link please?

that’s where I went. just out about 15 minutes ago. Still very busy! Surprised they didn’t have more staff on for such a big launch day but wasn’t really a problem getting someone to help so who cares I guess lol.

My DPD delivery guy mentioned it being an iPhone to me. He said he'd delivered a lot of them today!

Thanks I saw your pic - is that a Pro or Pro Max just for reference?

I'm still working so haven't had time to set my phone up yet.

Having a nightmare trying to set up my pro max. Restoring software again. Been an hour now. Anyone else having problems?

My date transfer went fine. My 12 PM wasn't on iOS 17 so not sure if this has caused issues

That’s a Pro Max.

30 deliveries in 15 minutes? I mean, I don’t know Marius so I don’t wish to call his ability into question, but its not really happening is it lolView attachment 2275307

My DPD man seemed to manage a similar click rate!

Got my 15 Pro Natural Titanium. Looks lovely and coming from a 13 Pro I am shocked at the speed difference. Everything is really snappy and I never felt like mine was slow. One thing I haven't seen mentioned much is the screen. The brightness is so much better. So bright compared to 13 pro. I made an absolute mess of my ESR Armorite protector. Bubble hell. The frame application is much tighter fit than normal with the curve causing issues I think.

Ok I got the worst luck. Anyone received a smashed device? As in smashed in the box how do you even go on about it

Gizz a look?

iPhone 15 Pro Max (Black 256gb) collected! Straight in the FineWoven case (let’s see how long that lasts), and the Spigen EZ Fit was immediately applied.

Not sure what to think about the screen protector, up until trialing one on this 14 the past few days I hadn’t bothered with them in years.

It barely covers the screen itself and doesn’t bother to overlap on the bezel…. As a result it’s more noticeable I feel like?

The Belkin from Apple also has a slight gap but it is OK for me. I am guessing you can't get one edge to edge because the case would end up pulling it off maybe?

Brilliant, past my time with DHL and while it's "out for delivery" it's no longer showing me what number I am or what delivery the driver is on...

 

[robbiemc]

Mine came as expected from DPD in the time window. Bit naughty that he just left it on the doorstep though and rang the bell. No photo or proof of delivery.
It's a quiet road and my door isn't in sight of the road either, and I'm familiar with our DPD driver, but thought that was a bit 'off'.
Still, set up now and it's really lovely. Superb in fact!
MM Kiosk tomorrow...

Same here, although my delivery time slot is meant to be 7pm-8pm (Delivery 84). It jumped from Delivery 40 to 78 at 3pm, and now it's not showing anything except 'Out for Delivery'. Waiting patiently down in Somerset...

So after a couple of hours with my 15 Pro, the screen feels the same. The thinner bezels in isolation do not really stand out compared to the 14 Pro.
What does though is the weight. I never thought I will actually notice the difference, but it is obvious. The contoured edges are way better, but using a case will just not give that.
The transfer went smooth, even the eSIM (although it took 3 tries).
So far I am loving it, not much difference but enough to make me feel good.

Yep. Love it. The other colours look a bit “whatever” to me in person.

Got the Clay and Winter Blue silicone cases and they both work well with it.

V happy.
