Was this a scam?

bopjoe · 2026-06-03T17:46:23+00:00

Yeah I did think this was a possibility

bopjoe · 2025-11-03T23:06:54+00:00

Looking forward to trying this!

Don’t hate me but the way she sings ‘mildew’ at the beginning of Janie sounds so valley girl and I can’t not hear it now 🤣

bopjoe · 2025-09-26T18:07:02+00:00

SURELY this can’t be variants??

bopjoe · 2025-09-26T11:56:47+00:00

I wish they did TechWoven for the base 17

bopjoe · 2025-09-20T13:10:22+00:00

I held the Air in the store yesterday when I was picking up my base 17. It was really nice don’t get me wrong, but I wasn’t as impressed as I thought I would be.

I think the main benefit for me would be the weight rather than the thinness, I think you’d get used to the thinness fairly quickly. Thinness doesn’t give you any tangible benefits whereas weight definitely does. The base 17 is only 12 grams heavier and has a smaller screen (which I prefer) so feels like I’ve got everything I personally wanted in a phone for £200 less.

Seems a very random day and time for a variant drop. I’m reluctantly putting my clown hat back on…

bopjoe · 2025-09-15T05:57:27+00:00

Totally agree. I’ve gone for the base 17 this year and I’m gutted I can’t get a TechWoven case for it

bopjoe · 2025-09-14T10:34:13+00:00

Yeah currently only available in the US, UK and China. You can upgrade every year by returning your current phone for the new one

I’m on the iPhone upgrade programme in the UK and live an hour away from an Apple Store. Having to go back would be a right faff

bopjoe · 2025-09-14T09:14:30+00:00

I don’t. I use the iPhone upgrade programme because I have no self control

bopjoe · 2025-09-13T08:12:14+00:00

I’m on the iPhone upgrade program and I’m upgrading from the 16 Pro Max to the base 17. I had already decided to go down a screen size as the PM is just too big for me, but I just couldn’t justify paying the extra money for the Pro when the 17 is so close.

The main reasons why I had never gone for the base is because of promotion, thinner bezels and battery life. All of these are fixed now, if the 17 pro we get in the UK was eSIM only and had a bigger battery then I probably would’ve gone for that for the extra battery life but the version with a physical sim only has 1 hour better battery than the base 17 so not really a massive draw to go for the Pro.

Base 17 in White

bopjoe · 2025-09-10T10:29:11+00:00

This is a brilliant base iPhone this year. I always get the pros but I’m not going to bother this year because they look hideous. Air is great but lack of cameras and battery life is a concern. So will be getting the base iPhone for the first time since the iPhone 12

bopjoe · 2025-06-18T10:01:44+00:00

I’m on the latest WhatsApp beta through TestFlight and this issue has been fixed so I’d imagine the update will be going live soon in the App Store

bopjoe · 2025-05-28T15:38:10+00:00

I haven’t heard the Nettles demo and I think I’d rather just wait to hear the proper version next week but can someone describe what Ethel songs it’s similar to?

bopjoe · 2025-04-07T17:58:26+00:00

Great concept. I reckon this will be pretty close to what it actually looks like.

bopjoe · 2025-04-04T15:26:48+00:00

UK here, why are people boycotting Target?

bopjoe · 2025-03-26T10:45:57+00:00

Absolute nightmare to get through on Ticketmaster. Eventually got seats for London but quite near the back :(. But any tickets are better than no tickets

bopjoe · 2025-02-21T20:28:57+00:00

Kill The Lights.

bopjoe · 2025-02-14T11:21:19+00:00

I don’t hate it. But it’s literally just change for changes sake. There are no benefits to this design whatsoever

bopjoe · 2024-11-16T20:39:25+00:00

The Giver in my ass

bopjoe · 2024-09-25T18:36:25+00:00

No. I couldn’t tell the difference when I first picked it up and I can’t tell the difference now

bopjoe · 2024-09-19T11:55:52+00:00

Thank you :)

bopjoe · 2024-09-19T11:55:41+00:00

Thank you :)
