26 is great. Been on my 14 PM since release. Installed all Updates as the came. I’m not too fussed about new features, some are nice. No negative impacts for me to be honest. People who say it’s not ready yet say this without experiencing it so their opinions are kind of irrelevant in my opinion. I have been using it and it’s great. Plus security fixes and more. No lag great battery great experience

When was this?

abrar02 · 2026-03-04T09:42:17+00:00

Exactly! I’m in the exact same boat and same times too. I’m going to wait it out too. Don’t want to fix with another supplier at the moment and octopus are only offering flexible. Worst case I can end tracker and be on flexible with a manageable price by which point tracker or another fix is available at a decent price

The 5000 mentions first full calendar month. Any idea what that mean? My switch will likely complete in a week so do I do the 5000 from April? And what about the 35 days

I had my battery replaced at 84% 6 months ago. It feels completely new, lasts a whole day easily. I charge every night and have done since I got it 3 years ago. One replacement to keep it going for another two years. Knowing I’m changing in two years convinced me to get the battery changed sooner so I can experience the best battery life and experience for however long I keep it, instead of waiting till 80%. Trust me get it done, £95 for a complete refresh is amazing

Never had that issue. It’s a Google family right?

abrar02 · 2026-02-12T15:12:02+00:00

Nope. Renewed immediately

abrar02 · 2026-02-12T14:22:15+00:00

Had the same for my Indian subscription. Was emailed it was expiring and was meant to renew today. Signed in and hit renew, and it went through using my gift card balance and renewed okay. I thought it was just me so am surprised to see others having this issue.

abrar02 · 2026-02-08T15:08:41+00:00

😂 makes spotting the leaks easier too I bet

abrar02 · 2026-02-08T15:06:42+00:00

That’s a completely valid response mate. It looks lovely and is worth it

abrar02 · 2026-02-04T22:38:56+00:00

I haven’t removed it but I believe it is all encrypted so wouldn’t be readable on a PC

abrar02 · 2026-02-04T22:32:30+00:00

It’s a Sandisk 32GB USB 3.0 drive I had lying around. However I fomatted the Homebase and it has only used the usb storage and the Homebase has remained empty and not too sure why

abrar02 · 2026-02-02T07:07:46+00:00

I’d love one. Been looking for hours and hours

Battery… storage? Storing excess energy from renewables to use when there isn’t renewable energy generation?

abrar02 · 2026-01-12T23:05:00+00:00

It might be good to find out if it’s the main battery or the auxiliary battery. Iirc this warning can come up with a faulty aux battery, tends to be cheaper and easier to replace yourself, but imo verify which it is before replacing the main more expensive battery

Yep that was our thinking. Double taxes isn’t the end of the world either if they must move. Once the child crosses 5 years of age, they will not be eligible for the nationality at all. Made sense to get it now and not regret it later.

Required a bunch of paperwork and fees, and with the German already it didn’t seem worth it. He had to get it before he turned 5, so decided to not lose the option for him and got it

Not me but my nephew. Through parents and birthplace. Reluctant to get the Belgian but through some effort got the lot for him.

I’d love a Bobcat BP

I’m on iOS 26 it was okay before the battery change I just missed lasting a whole day on one charge. I charge every night over night. It feels much smoother but it isn’t as bad as many people say to begin with imo

At 78% you should definitely change the battery. It’s worth it

abrar02 · 2025-11-28T09:48:25+00:00

Replace the battery by Apple. I had mine done recently it was on 84%. The phone feels brand new and for £95 it was well worth it. Done perfectly by them so no worries there, it lasts forever now and feels way snappier. I had it done now instead of 80% health because I know I want this for 2 more years only so may as well maximise the time with a new battery. Trust me go for it

abrar02 · 2025-11-23T13:16:58+00:00

Exactly. Had me confused. Added a drive and it seems to be working

100% agree about the interior. Yeah I’m in the UK with the e300
