If you use another recycler ( i did music magpie with code tech10 for 10% more). I have 14 days to send it in so plenty of time to get Xs and ship off the x

Mine is still pending on my credit card too. I’m sure all will be fine come Friday
Haha indeed! Only real reason for the X to Xs for me is due to IUP. I’m paying the same amount so might as well have the Xs! ( until I see the max in store and pine for it)
I have pending full charge (for my watch though) and still showing to pick up Friday. My
IUP upgrade reservation still shows Friday too
....same here although I will update my iPad Air 2.
....so you're upgrading from last year's iPhone X to the XS right? If that was me, I definitely would not do this upgrade as there just isn't enough in the XS to make it different to the original X. That's why I am pretty sure you'll end up with the XS Max come this Friday!
I’m sure if they have stock. The Xs seems plentiful given the preorders for 256s only just moved from 21st delivery.
I have a silver x and it looks great. But if it’s in a case no one will know
Well I am like you & usually hold out until I receive the new iPhone before updating to the latest iOS.
However, this year I am selling my X to a friend this week so thought I'll be nice and update it for them in advance!
The added benefit it I could take iOS 12 for an early test drive!
The X is fast already but iOS 12 just makes everything noticeably super rapid with the performance.
I have a sneaky suspicion with the new A12 Bionic chip in XS/XS Max and iOS 12 together, we're going to enjoy the best Apple user experience.
Personally, I really want to test out the new in-built camera software feature but I'll wait for my XS Max on Friday.
Need to leave some things to look forward to!
I'm with O2 on a sim-only deal. I pay £19.19 a month for 10GB data, unlimited calls and texts. EU Roaming.
Looking at Vodafone and EE they both offer 40GB data for £25 which is much more appealing as I always get low and slow down my usage as I'm aware I only have 10GB data.
Of the three, I'm thinking to move to EE now. I want the eSIM so I can also put my Vodafone business SIM in the phone. I guess this is the best move?

Badly I suspect.
The bulk to protection ratio is probably one of the best with the apple cases. I ordered a clear totallee case with a screen protector for my Max, but also a Apple leather case for when i go the gym or out out, just to get a little more drop security.
Anyone with a Friday delivery in the UK gone to shipped yet?
Tried the UPS tracking by phone no. that works for US punters but no dice
Cheers

IUP makes no sense if you don’t upgrade. Why continue to pay for the X when I can get an XS for the same monthly cost. Doesn’t mean I won’t want a max....same here although I will update my iPad Air 2.

For me a max/plus size with a case makes a big phone bigger. I had a case in my 7+ ( silicon ) which added some weight but also made one handed use more difficult.
Just checked the weights and surprised buy the difference.
Never knew the 8+ was heavier than the 7+ (188g compared to 202g) - makes sense given the glass construction
The max is 208g so 20g more than when I last had a plus sized phone. Add a case on that and that’s putting me off more from the max
It’s the hardest thing in the world, but just think, it’s what the world is waiting for!
Anyone know how long you need to allow for delivery to Music Magpie? The quote is only valid so long as they receive the item within the 14 days/ Royal Mail guidance says tracked 48 is usually 2-3 business days - anyone got experience with MM of whether that holds true?
My quote is now valid until Monday 1st October - so if I send off on Monday, hopefully will be enough time.

Yes, mine has gone.
EDIT, sorry,just reread your post. Mine is for delivery.
