Which iPhone 14 will you get?

I’ve been reading some reviews about the Apple iPhone Pro Max Clear Case with MagSafe and it seems the main problems are that it’s as slippery as a bar of soap and the buttons are hard to press.
To be truthfully honest those pretty much sum my experience with it.
The other issue I would add is that it seems to be very brittle. I had 3, yes 3(!), and they all cracked in both bottom corners. Granted they maybe weren't treated with the utmost of care around the house but nothing serious like a fall to a hard floor from waist height etc. I guess I do tend to be a little less careful when I have a case on but I shouldn't have to baby the case the same way as I would the phone.
The ONE good thing I would say is it doesn't yellow. It's the first clear case I've had that didn't exhibit any colouring at all - but then again there's no TPU in it (that I'm aware of) so you wouldn't expect it to.
 
For some reason I can't transfer my eSim from my 13 to my 14, and when I use the app to download it on my new phone, it just errors and says Code is Invalid. Pain in the bum
 
Some no thought point and click of t'whippet Lando.

Mine didn't work, I had to generate a new QR code in my EE account and that worked.
 
Log into my EE on a web browser, select your account, account settings, replace your sim/esim
Yeah that's what I've been doing but every time I scan the QR code, it just says "Mobile plan cannot be added. Code is no longer valid" :(

You might have to speak to EE, the last time I had an issue I had to go into the bloody shop with ID and the (I'm presuming) interns in there had no idea, they had to get the manager to sort it for me.
 
Yeah it looks exactly the same. Weird because the pic a few posts up looks nicer. I guess it's all down to the lighting. The band is definitely darker though.
 
Well I'm into my hour delivery window now, but unhelpfully the DHL website stopped giving me progress updates by stops and now just says out for delivery again. Also unfortunate is that my partner is due home soon so I'll barely get any playing time :p

EDIT: Driver just rang and said he'd be about 10 minutes so that's good.
 
Space Black looks just like Space Grey :/

It’s definitely darker, on both the back glass and the band. It also feels every so slightly less slippy.

AOD off now, had my phone on the side in the gym and anyone walking past could easily glance at my messages. It’s way too bright and it should have a separate option to only show notification icons or similar.
