    Last minute indecision to get a pro or pro max, aaah. I’ve gotten the pro max the last couple of years, but like a few commenters here, the size is unnecessarily big. The pro would be be a nice small downsize and that bit tidier to hold and carry. But the max has that improved optical zoom, which I would like. Aaahh.

    I’m in the same boat. I’ve small hands so the pro max versions have been a strain over the last few years. Have never had the smaller pro version. Mates have the smaller pro versions and I love the handle of them.

    I switched to the smaller form factor when I got my 12 Pro and I definitely prefer it.

    Easier to ask here; does AppleCare+ mean I can send my iphone away if it needs repair or do I need to bring it to a certified repairer?

    You don’t need AppleCare+ for that, you can always send your phone to Apple whether you have it or not. Apple will arrange all the logistics, they’ll collect your phone.

    AppleCare+ just covers more types of damage, like accidental damage.

    I have never bothered with AppleCare+ for a phone. It’s a bigger thing in the US where consumer rights are much weaker.

    It's not worth the money here as you get almost all of what they are making you pay for by rights anyway.

    I have AppleCare for my 13pro. Select in Cork or Dublin will take of it. So, there is no need to send it to Apple. I needed a battery replacement in May. The Battery bulged damaging the screen It only took a couple of days. The guy in Select reckons Apple just replaced the phone. The logic board on my wife’s iPhone 8 went 14 months after she bought it. She was past the 12 months so, out of warranty and out of luck. You have 60 days to decide if want AppleCare after purchase.

    Yeah, I’ve made up my mind and gonna go with the smaller form factor Pro, I’ll manage with the battery life and I’ve lived without 5x optical zoom for years so I can manage to wait another year or two, maybe until they really bump it up to 6x or even 10x eventually.

    Funny. Every so often I get into the store but in using the recent app so when I switch to that I’m back to locked out. Then the store is down from safari as well.

    The app and website were a disaster but finally got it ordered. 15 Pro 128GB Titanium Blue. Says delivery on Monday 25th but it will almost certainly be launch day, Friday 22nd.

    It'd be quicker to send it to Apple than bring it to Select.

    I sent my phone to Apple last year cause the screen started flickering. They collected it Monday at lunch time and they delivered it back Wednesday morning. They are very fast.

    Sometimes they replace it, sometimes they will fix it. Depends what is faster.

    Your wife should not have paid for a replacement logic board after 14 months unless the fault was caused by misuse, Apple's warranty terms cannot overwrite your consumer rights.

    Your bulging battery issue would have been a free fix whether you had AppleCare or not.

    Ordered one on Vodafone and one on Apple, will take whichever one arrives first. Would have preferred natural titanium colour for something different but had the longest lead time of them all.

    Very poor experience with the store. Lots of glitches and I was on immediately when it went live, and delivery date still changed from 22nd to the 25th while checking out. Not a big deal obviously, but annoying. Also I had checked out and got confirmation email, while family member still couldn't get past the 'coming shortly' page.

    25th Sept for my iPhone 15 Pro Max 512GB blue titanium and 28th Sept -3rd Oct for family member's iPhone 15 Pro Max 512GB natural titanium. Seems to be a longer wait for natural titanium looking at the store now.
