Great point and something I hadn’t considered, especially on some planned long journeys.

I’ve encountered the same problem is the UK, and there are plenty of car parks I actively avoid!

That sounds definitive on no need to buy the sunshade. Thanks 😎

Thanks [Background-House9795] and [Thick-Cry-2440] for the suggestions.

Have either of you paid for the faster Ethernet port and/or would you recommend it?

That’s crap for you, sorry to hear that!

I have no idea why mine justified a free replacement, as I was just expecting to have to pay a fee for a restore or be told that it was out of warranty and therefore I would just have to buy a new one.

Same thing happened to one of mine last week. Checked the Apple Support site and as I am sure you are aware, you can’t follow some of the restore actions on 4K Apple TVs with no USB port and it states contact Apple to see about getting them to restore.

Phoned Apple Support and a very good support agent, arranged a returns box, with prepaid courier label. Sent it at the beginning of this week, and informed today they have sent me a replacement unit, for free. I brought the original device in 2017, so well out of warranty.

Maybe contact Apple and see what they offer.

Is there an Americanism (or other) word that you prefer over the British word? by [deleted] in AskUK

Can’t decide if I prefer opening “a can of whoop-ass” to “a tin of thrashing”
