Vodafone order has arrived so soon as I get home I will be taking it back for a cancellation although I’m half tempted to open it up and see what it’s like.

Not sure if that will affect my return policy though???

Some policy are different if it a upgrade then I think you have to keep it. If it a new purchase contract then you have 14 days cooling off period

Mine has be delivered to my sisters, picking it up tomorrow. My Mous case is being delivered to mine but by yodel so it will probably get lost or delivered to a random house miles away!

I wouldn't risk it tbh. Keep it sealed and they will have no reason to deny

Finally, I can stop using this awful iPhone 7. I got rid of my 11 Pro Max a month and a bit ago so I haven't been using the 7 for that long really, but it sure feels like I have.

It's arrived. I like the blue, I think it looks pretty good.

I've bought my wife an iPhone 128gb to upgrade from her iPhone 7. Just a quick question regarding fast charging. Can I use an Anker wireless charging pad plus my Samsung fast charge AC adapter with the iPhone? If not then I will have to buy a new fast charger. Any recommendations (3rd party)?

Ordered a 12 Pro for the wife. Should be here tomorrow. Was going to get the 11 earlier in the year, but she wanted to wait.

Hopefully this will last as long as her 7 did.

Im seeing a lot of people that are upgrading from the 7 (like me) to the 12!

7 really has felt like **** since I updated to ios 14. The ram management has been awful, cant keep more than 2 apps simultaneously open without it having to refresh!

From what I understand, all other Qi chargers will work but are limited to 7.5W, if you want 15W it has to be a MagSafe charger. Happy to be corrected on that though.

I'm also upgrading from a 7.

^that is correct

I think it's 15W.

 

[Phemo]

Yes it'll work, but only at 7.5w speeds unfortunately. Fine if you're plonking it down to charge overnight, but not so useful if you want a bit of charge on your phone in a hurry.

 

[Deleted member 209350]

Tbh im ont sure how non-magsafe 15w chargers work... Im sure you still get the 15w, but maybe not as efficiently

I'm in two minds about AppleCare this year, I have mobile insurance with my bank which covers it anyway so is there much point?

Personally think it’s a complete rip off. Put it this way 2 year AC is 20% the cost of a 12Pro. Must be a lot of risk averse consumers to let them get away with charging that. It’s like buying a new BMW and getting your car insurance and tyre/alloy/GAP insurance with them, you pay through the roof!

The key difference is AC ensures that your phone is repaired by Apple. With third party insurance, they'll use some independent "authorised" repairer who may well botch the job.

The price is pretty much the same as you'd pay for third-party insurance. The trade-off is you lose the certainty of an Apple repair in exchange for loss/theft cover. Most of us are concerned with accidents, not losing it or having it stolen and, if the worst happens, your household insurance will likely cover it anyway.

As mentioned, AC also extends the Apple warranty for a second year.

Thanks. If I used the apple cable with a 15W charger (plugged in, not wireless) will it work at 15W?

no

 

[Feek]

no

Is that definite? I'd expect wired charging to be more efficient than wireless.
