iPhone 16 Series

Nee fok I've had to resort to something as banal as cables and doing a manual backup and restore.

That's what you get for running developer Beta's on your personal phone I guess.

Any members signed up for AppleCare or AppleCare+

Have you ever claimed against the cover in SA ?

Yes used it on iPhone and MacBook Pro. Istore refused saying the part numbers are different but Digicape in Cape Town always honored it. It however took a while as they indicated they were waiting in parts from Apple USA. I am not sure if that is standard practice or only because I use Apple care

Nope, I only got that email after they delivered.

You got an email?

Yeah the same one Zoidberg posted earlier in the thread.

ebucks partner store loaded some stock -- just ordered a desert titanium pro

Well I’m deeply annoyed the motion detection stuff for Standby Mode isn’t on the non-Pro models now.

Absolutely no reason for it other than model differentiation, but then that is equally stupid as it’s not a listed feature or something.

So far this upgrade is deeply underwhelming.

Dolby is going to love it.

I must confess that the longer that it takes Core to get their schit sorted with respect to stock levels (16 Pro) the more inclined I am to wait for the iPhone 17.

Not sure in the desert gold colour. Anyone have this colour that can comment on it?

Rinse and repeat every year

I don't see how he would...I apparently can't be objective after all.

But I'll sit on it a few days before I put my thoughts into a single post.

Same boat. Was probably going to get a 16 Pro because I saw iStore advertising a special on trading in my 13 Pro. But that special will probably be long gone by the time they actually have stock.

So can confirm that it is the Apple 20watt USB-C charger. Makro store GM arranged that I get charger directly from the store to save some time.

CORE is at the core of the problem. Have been dealing with their BS since iPhone 3GS. Before that involved on the gaming side with Nintendo. Same ****

Core taking the piss can get one delivered in less than 2 hours

I think you can get your trade in value locked for 60 days and add your name to the waitlist so that as soon as they have stock within the next 60 days, you still get the best deal on your 13 Pro.
