Umm .. are you sure it will charge? .. It's supposed if you attach a metal plate will avoid to charge .. Wireless charging doesn't work with metals, that is the reason why iPhone 8 and iPhone X are made with glass material on back.
Got a tip for us?

So was furious with Vodafone, chatted with them online and they gave me a parcel number...of course its not appearing on the DPD site..perhaps still early days.. but apparently it will be delivered tomorrow. I havent received anything message from Vodafone nor has my online account with them been updated..here is to hoping all goes well.
For those collecting from Apple store, I tried asking if earlier pick up is possible and the answer is no.

Congrats man! Really happy for you! Looks great! You will be famous for this!!!
Does your receiver support wireless car play? (or are you just doing your hands free and audio integration over bluetooth?)
I've snagged this one for my car:

You need to be cautious about where you get the T513 - some are 7.5w, some are only 5w - same model number.
Choetech has discontinued that model, but it has 18 months of manufacturers warranty!! And it's a 3-coil, so not fussy about your phone placement for it to work (very much needed for the car)
no JLR have been talking about it for a while but its still 'coming soon'. its bluetooth ATM for me so being able to drop the phone onto a pad in the centre console would be sweet
email received from EE
will be delivered tomorrow and the details are on my DPD app

...can somebody clarify this conundrum for me (I'm probably being stupid!!
When I went on my Apple Store App to the IUP, to see if it would be possible to exchange my iPhone 8 Plus to an iPhone X (I am NOT looking to change my iPhone 8 Plus - just wanted to see if it was actually possible!!), it stated that in order to do this, I would have to pay the remaining balance of my current IUP, which is around £453), and then hand back the phone (when at the store), which would then enable to me to reserve an X, for collection (again - I am not looking to change).
Unless I am missing something or have completely misunderstood this, why would I have to pay off the balance AND hand back the phone??
Yeah that doesn’t sound right. Surely it’s either/or rather than both.
yeah, yeah.. sometime next year!
of you were going to do it sometime next year as you're on IUP... don't worry.. you can admit you want an X.. no one will hold it against you
Sorry for the many posts, I’m kinda in a hurry as have to get to work.
It’s all set up, restored (still downloading some apps) and now iOS 11.1 in the background....
Screen is literally amazing edge to edge, I’ve already forgotten about the notch after 20 mins. It’s definitely weighty and reminds my of the iPhone 4 way back, I guess its the chrome and weight?
I’ve come from an iPhone 6S plus and it feels so much smaller in my hand, not sure if I’ll need the reachability anymore which I might miss! If I’m honest, I’d totally welcome the iPhone x with a bigger screen and overall size of the plus range and I got used to that pretty quickly and I have quite big hands.
So face ID might be the second best thing behind the screen, it’s is so fast and natural already. Just tapping and looking at it whilst it’s led on the desk is already a breeze. Equally flicking home is feeling normal!
Any questions, let me know and I’ll try to answer. And to those CPW people that arranged an instore pick up for tomorrow 3rd, I hope you changes to depot pick up like I did yesterday because then like me you will one of the first to have it in your hand and 845 am on 2 November......I wonder how many had it before I did..anyone know..?
You guys will really, really like this phone. All the reviews I’ve seen on YouTube were spot on
Did you update to 11.1 on your previous phone? Nice to know they're not requiring the update before backup restores from 11.1
All of the magnetic qi ones I've seen use a metal ring or smaller separate magnets to attached the phone/case to the charger - so they are outside of the area where the coil is on the phone.

Hi, I didn’t update my previous phone
The sum you mentioned sounds like the 10 additional payments you’d need to make to bring your total payments up to 11. You need to have made 11 in order to upgrade and would have to hand the 8+ in when doing so.
If you pay off the total remaining balance, ie your monthly payment x 19, you could then keep your 8+.
Just had a UKmail van park outside, the driver fetch something from the back, walk up to the door...
...actually knock on the door and deliver it!
It being not my parcel. Sigh. (And not a parcel I even knew was coming to make it worse.)

I still haven’t had a shipment email yet. Meant to be arriving tomorrow!
The Apple Store app just says “preparing for dispatch”
Hummm

really good spot..
it would be a crazy scenario to up to to the 11 payment and then hand back the phone... you'd probably be better paying it all off and selling the phone privately.. worth doing the maths to see if which works out best
I would not be surprised if you are the FIRST non-journalist to get their iPhone X in the WORLD!
Apple are very strict about stuff not being delivered before the official launch date. CpW could be punished by Apple over this - perhaps no day 1 stock for them at the next iPhone launch?
Really?
Hadn’t thought about it like that....
I must admit when I changed to depot pick up last night (I posted on this last night) someone would realise and either apple would stop DPD releasing from the depot this morning or disabled the web app to change pick up time and location. Can’t see how CPW are to blame really as they would have sent to a store if I hadn’t changed the pick up on the app, and the shop staff wouldnt have released it to me
I’ve posted over on the CPW thread as well,see how May there did what I did...
theres videos of phones being delivered in Milan yesterday but they couldn't be activated
[doublepost=1509617329][/doublepost]
I can see apple doing diddly squat over this.. the volume of handsets, carriers, couriers and the logistics involved.. mistakes will happen... Apple won't care given all the money they will be swimming in this week
