Trying to pay for my order, but FNB keeps blocking my transaction as suspicious
EDIT: It's done, tried 3 times with my virtual card and failed every time as "suspicious". Had to use my normal card details at it worked.

This is definitely the best deal I've seen, I was originally going to just get the 15 Pro but the price doesn't really make sense.Trying to pay for my order, but FNB keeps blocking my transaction as suspicious

Plus got the free pair of Airpods, not that I'm going to use them but I'll probably just give them to my mom (who is getting my old iPhone) or sell them if she doesn't want them.

I was considering bumping up to 256GB but I looked at my current 128GB iPhone which I've been using for over 3 years and it still has 64GB free, so no point in paying for something I won't use.

From Incredible Connection, it's R23 499, so a bit cheaper but no airpods.
Edit: also a 2 year warranty from Incredible.

I think the best deal was the normal 16 from Game at R17 000 (R21 000 - R4000 discount) but they sold out so fast. There's not that much difference between Pro and 16 this year (120Hz and telephoto really).
I couldn't get FNB virtual card payment to work at incredible. Eventually used Ozow, money came off my FNB account, order showed cancelled with on Incredible account though. I logged a complaint with Incredible last night with my order number and then they followed up this morning. I send PDF of proof of payment to them and they sorted everything out (they created a new order). So maybe just contact them with all the info and they should help you out quickly.

Good deal, thanks for heads-up. This morning pushed they button on iPhone 16 PRO and a PRO MAX for 6k off but because of FNB's BS when I went back only the PRO was available. Got the PRO MAX from Makro,, website is very vague regarding the voucher.

I am going to be in Europe next month, checked the pricing there and wasn't worth the effort so I just ordered locally.

Yeah European pricing was around 1449 euro. Crappy trade ins and all round SA looked a lot better when compared to Europe. Who would have thought
Outside of the US, Malaysia think had the great prices … RM6000 for an iPhone 16 pro max. Around R24k

That’s the price of the Pro Max in Germany, not the Pro.
Where did you buy it from?
