    Guys.... am up for upgrade from my iPhone 7 with Eir. I still have to add cash but there is only a difference of €80 between getting an X or an 11. It's not the money that concerns me.... it's which is the better phone on recommendation.

    Help me decide!!!

    Many thanka

    Well you know the 11 is higher spec. So what do you need.

    Only issue is that the screen is not OLED but that wouldn't bother me.

    Also don't get why people say they're up for an upgrade. There is no difference in price if buying phone as new or existing customer or just buying it upfront. It's not subsidised by networks in anyway.

    When you say X do you mean the 2017 iPhone X?? If so it's a no brainer to get the 2019 iPhone 11 with better battery life, processor, cameras etc.

    The X is not currently on the Eir website so I would just check what you are actually getting...

    iPhone 11 64gb.

    After 4 calls,including one where Eir say I have to contact Nightline, and Nightline say that I need to get Eir to contact them.:rolleyes:

    Eir say they have changed delivery address and sent to Nightline but I'm not convinced.

    I presume eir didn’t receive iPhone pro max then because nothing for me and I ordered bang on 1.10 pm last Friday

    There is a difference with upgrade. I’m retaining my existing plan with 3 and upgraded to an 11 for €229 phone cost.

    Mine arrived, very happy with it so far!

    Yes, but if you didn't upgrade you could have gone on a cheaper SIM only plan.

    The upgrade is not saving you anything.

    I'm not criticising you as I have done the same myself just pointing out that these "upgrades" are not cheaper.

    Did you get a tracking number by any chance?
    Ive not had any updates.
    3 online chat saying that stock is out and shipments are subject to stock availability.... so no clear answer. Even tho email stays pre-orders would be dispatched on time and to delete the generic email.
    This rings a bell from my last pre-order upgrade

    Yeah that’s a fair enough assessment I suppose, long run prob not a saving but in the here and now I’m not having to fork out full price for a phone and downgrading my price plan.

    I was told by 3 yesterday that my phone would be here today, first I heard of it was a text from an post this morning to say it was onboard their van for delivery today and lo and behold it arrived with regular post this morning.

    Prior to that I hadn’t received any confirmation or tracking whatsoever.

    3 online chat said my order is ''out of stock''.
    Pre Ordered on 1st day.
    Email said to disregard notification on delays for pre-orders.
    No text, no tracking number.
    Sh*te CS as usual, no transparency. I just need to be told its not today.

    My phone order has just been delivered. Setting up now. Initial impressions are that the midnight green Pro Max is really stunning in person. It's a much more subdued green than I initially thought. It changes significantly depending on the light it's in. It's really gorgeous.

    Give them a call/live msg maybe see if they can let you know?

    Anyone moving to the 11 Pro from the X. Is it worth it??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 649 ✭✭✭MillField


    I'm due an upgrade with Three next month. I assume the upgrade prices will be roughly in line with the bill pay prices for 11/11 Pro?

    They will be the exact same.

    Unless you ring Loyalty team and talk of leaving and you might get a discount. Worked for me with Eir.

    I don't get why people want it now, I want it now !!

    giphy.gif?cid=790b7611481a051bb9d478ebd72a22a46561428882230734&rid=giphy.gif

    Bit silly, and childish

    I so need an upgrade. The last phone I bought was a Sony k800i and I still have it, bought it new when it came out. Never missed a beat.
    I think I'll get the 11 pro max. Sometime soon, not now !!!!!!!

    Yea it will, k800i was the best available phone when I bought it, so I can repeat the feat buying the 11 Promax. :)

    Queued up since 7:40 AM over at CompuB and they only got one of each pro max 64gb colour. Both colours I wanted were taken by the two ahead of me in the queue so I dipped out of it.

    Disappointed but hey! Only a few more weeks to wait with ordering of Apple online

    If you're willing to bump up to 256, they have limited stock in Dundrum. They also have available for Home Delivery.

    Ordered for pickup myself (different colour) from Dundrum just after 4pm, and I just got email that it's ready for collection.

    Strike that! It's now gone to available 01/10

    Yeah moved from X to 11 Pro. Mainly did it for the battery and camera, so won't really know if it was worth it for a few weeks!

    Like other poster said, X has held it's value and will get around 500 for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 406 ✭✭akadesign


    Anyone pre-order with Eir? What a shower. Called and live chatted. First they said it’s out of stock, even tough they had stock when ordered. Then they changed there tune and said I’d have it today.

    No tracking, no email confirmation, nothing. So they seem to have no idea of when I might receive it.

    Do they call before delivery as I’m away next week?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,731 ✭✭✭dmcg90


    After trying in Dublin City today I placed the order on Apple Online for the Pro Max 64GB Midnight Green. Here’s hoping the order is a bit quicker than the Oct 7-14 estimate.

    Anyone moving to the 11 Pro from the X. Is it worth it??

    I did. I sold my X for more than I got the 11 Pro with Three. I’m a photo-maniac so the ultra wide does it for me. Add the extra battery and I was sold.

    Yea it will, k800i was the best available phone when I bought it, so I can repeat the feat buying the 11 Promax. :)

    I had that too. Xenon flash still hasn’t been beaten on a popular modern phone. I think Nokia put it on one of their Windows Phones.
