Apples warranty is world wide so no need to worry

Cheers OP. Ordered:)

I always go for the happy ending, thank you long time.

For clarity, It's the Air 2. You might have meant that already but making sure in case you had it confused with the (original) Air.

As for why I'd pay double... same reason I pay more for a BMW than a Ford.

For some, it's badge snobbery but others, it's the engineering or the nicer cabin or something else.

It just depends on your outlook really - we're all different.

Ipad received all fine and as expected, also my points are now showing in my account which I could use with the discount voucher they emailed yesterday. The converter plug is basic but as expected, the supplied charger can either have the plug changed to a UK plug. Another option that people may not be aware of is that Apple charges also work with standard power cables that have the older 2 pin connector at the end.

Ipad received fine. Not received points yet.

Ipad received fine. Not received points yet.

Never used icloud back ups, always saved on to my computer.

I had trouble getting iTunes to recognise it. Had to do a restore in recovery mode for some reason.

Received my iPad this morning and looks to be a Malaysian model. The duck head charger they supplied is horrible and I would never plug that thing into a power outlet in my house lol. All is good, warranty registers as a full 12 months - can't complain

I see you can get a UK plug head for the original apple charger that comes with iPad on ebay - around £1 (from China) to £4 (from UK). Saves buying a whole new UK charger!

Mines multiple EU languages. Starts of German then on to others.

The stuff on the back of iPad itself is English

Primary language on the back of box here is Polish!

How are you all determining that they are European models? Is the Apple blurb on the rear of the box written in English or a European language? Cheers

They could have at least supplied a proper adapter, the one they gave is nasty, definitely wont be using it ever.

Thought I had a problem with touch sensitivity when setting up last few hours (while on charge), but then discovered on web that Air 2 suffers this when plugged in with third party chargers (using Anker here). As soon as I unplugged charger, all was back to normal with touch. I was worried for a moment! Anyhow, mentioning here in case anyone else thinks they have a fault (its not a fault) if using third party charger. My old Air didn't have this problem, only affects Air 2 apparently. Touch sensitivity works okay with official apple charger - as would be expected.

My order is still showing as "Awaiting Shipment - 06/04/2026"

Mine arrived about an hour ago :smiley: All good so far, apart from 2 pin charger, but that's not a problem as it was expected.
Also registered fine with Apple UK using https://supportprofile.apple.com/

Mine has arrived today via FedEx, appears to be an Eastern European model with a very nasty looking mains adapter supplied (which I definitely won't be using). Not bothered about that though, is as expected and otherwise all good.

shipped here too in last hour....

Same here, item shipped

Just had my "shipped" email but no tracking information.

The points aren't added until the item is delivered.

I think the points are added when the item is dispatched.

Mine still showing 4/4 Awaiting Shipment, no delayed or shipping confirmation, Quidco tracked day after placing order. Delayed shipping not an issue for me as I won't be back until next week to sign for the delivery.

Also has anyone had their 2095 points added, mines still showing 0 points

Got shipping notification half hour ago, ordered Wednesday morning.

Still waiting here....date not changed since placing order. Quidco not tracked, but raised manual claim, which is yet to appear!
Ordered: Thu Morning (31 Mar)
Status: Awaiting Shipment
Ship by: 05/04/2016 - now says Delayed (today 5th Apr)

Mine was due to ship on the 4th but now it has a delayed message? Quidco has tracked at £14.66 though.

Status: Awaiting Shipment
Total: £ 419.00 (VAT is included)
Ship by: 04/04/2016 - DELAYED

Mine hasn't shipped yet

Has anyone received a dispatched email yet? I ordered Thursday evening but haven't had a dispatched notice

That's what I meant both have a 12 month warranty

You can get this for the same price from Apple refurb store. Saves the hassle of a foreign plug and 12 month warranty

But the bullet and brought an iPad Air 2

I purchased a 16gb ipad air 2 on Wednesday night and it arrived on Friday morning via FedEx sealed and perfect.

Was a foreign model with a 2pin plug so it may be American /Canadian but they sent an adapter and I've registered it with Apple for a full year warranty as they provide global support.

Overall very impressed by these guys and would order from them again.

These units should start to ship very soon, when they arrive could someone confirm what country or power daptor they are sending. I've ordred one but won't get it until next week as I'm on holiday.

Got the 128GB iPad Pro 9.7, just upgraded from the 1st Gen Air

Are these iPads official sealed Apple Units or white box units packaged by Pixel Electronics? Cheers.

Oh pack it in you troll! I only post stuff on here either to help or give information or just be generally weird. There's no way I'm affiliated with that app. I just post it as I was interested in it and thought others might be as well.

If you prefer a UK version Apple have their refurbished ones available at the same price. They are near enough new.

I've had things from here before. The main one was a Wii U which I've had no problem with in 16 months. I've been looking for an iPAD at a decent price. I'm an Android fan but I've got through 2 tablets while my wife's iPAD 2 is still going strong. I've decided to bite the bullet and sell my soul to Apple.

I very much doubt that. Especially if you're selling it on with no transferable warranty. We've already ascertained that Apple warranty is applicable worldwide - so we're talking a slight difference with the charger worst case by use of an adapter. That's easily rectified if bothered though - Amazon sell the UK charger for £13.58 currently:

too good to be true? IPAD Mini 4 64gb

Yes, also cannot find location to apply code?? Not under card details as indicated yesterday. Do you have to register maybe to apply code

Where on earth do you enter voucher code. Its asking for credit card details but nowhere to put voucher code.

I bought an iPad pro 12" from them last week, Malaysian model but UK plug. Registered for AppleCare+ and correct warranty date was already applied.

I will be buying more stuff from them, their prices are great

After a few searches, it appears these are imported units and can't imagine Apple uk would honor the guarentee, so the warranty would require sending back the unit to the supplier, could be a bit of hassle, excellent price, would jump at it if this was UK units.

It's suspect that no apple model number or product code is related to an item on the page, the basket or checkout.

is the code going run out end of march today?

With the new I pad pro out, this price will go down every where? They are £350 at argos for 16gb

Voted hot, good saving on the normal Apple price, its questionable if I actually need another iPad but I'm constantly filling my current 32GB iPad mini. Probably sell my existing units to cover the cost of this one.

Quidco has also tracked, what would now be good is if the stock is UK or Hong Kong and then no issues with the mains adaptor, I have a few spare units

Was that whole comment just to set up an advertisement? are you getting paid? if so how do i get in on that?

True, the speed of the iPad air could be quicker. But this post is for the iPad Air 2 which is much quicker with better processor and graphics chipset etc.

The Air can indeed be had for around £250 - but this is the Air 2 we're on about. I'm not going to participate in the old Android vs Apple debate as I'm in both camps and they both have their merits.

This is the cheapest deal right now for an Ipad Air 2 64GB - if you're in the market for one then hopefully I've helped you. If not, no problem, wait until a suitable android tablet comes up as a deal for £200 :wink:

Aha! Ok, I now understand.
It's the standard plan and I suggested this for those that are concerned about their warranty coverage by buying a non UK model

The iPad has better hardware than most of the Android tablets on the market and light years ahead in tablet apps quality and performance. Eg, the Air 2 can play 1080p 10 bit mkv files where as Android tablets, except maybe one or two, cant. Even my Xperia Z3 with a 2.5ghz quad core struggles badly where as an Air 2 with it's tri-core 1.5ghz has zero problems. So you pay more and actually do more stuff, Android tablets just aren't good enough. It's old but still better than modern Android tablets.

No, AppleCare and AppleCare+ aren't the same. The non+ version doesn't include accidental damage so essentially it's just an extra years warranty.

If you can find AppleCare+ for £25 then post it up as a deal.

For clarity, It's the Air 2. You might have meant that already but making sure in case you had it confused with the (original) Air.

As for why I'd pay double... same reason I pay more for a BMW than a Ford.

For some, it's badge snobbery but others, it's the engineering or the nicer cabin or something else.

It just depends on your outlook really - we're all different.

It's called AppleCare+ in the UK but AppleCare in the US. Can be had on ebay for 25quid.

Or pay £200 for an Android device that does most of what this does. I mean I kinda fancy an iPad, I know it's got better apps than Android ones, but paying double for the privilege for such an old device is just too much. I honestly thought the Air was be about £250 by now.

Hot, I got this brand new off fleabay for £365 which I thought was a good deal for 64gb.
Hang on uhhh,whut? Are these not the UK region model number - in that case not so good. Looks like apple have crashed the price by about £50, presumably because of the new pro.

What about the warranty on these Ipads?

Just a quick word of warning my fellow people:

IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE, iPAD AND APPLE TV SERVICE.

Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone, iPad and Apple TV to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.

Source: http://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/uk-ireland-universal-warranty.html

Although they tend to service regardless of the country where the device was purchased, they could end up throwing this back in your face.

I just done what you asked, on my iPAD Youtube, any version, after viewing I can go back on the page with the recommended list of videos after a search. This is how I did it, on full screen . I pressed screen once, and then see on the bottom right corner an icon next to the end time of film, this would shrink the full screen back to part screen, then you would see the list of recommended videos from before in the search. Then I pressed to minimise the part screen, by pressing the "v" on top left hand corners of the part screen video. Then the part screen was minimised to a small video screen on bottom right hand corner and then I got back to square one, the beginning of the long list of recommended videos from the initial search. And on the screen there was even a back arrow to go back to the orginal screen where I entered the search words, all stupidly easy to do without reading an instruction.

My niece ordered a Nexus5 a while back from them and it came from China. Not sure if it's still the case

Is yours a random guess, or you read their web site for shipping information or you had previous experience of seeing a parcel with shipping postage stamped as from China?

I bought an iPad Air from these guys before Christmas. It was a brand new product but came with a 2 prong plug and a very iffy looking UK adapter. I ended up using all my Rakuten points to buy a proper UK 3 prong transformer, the site doesn't make it very clear that the product is not a UK item.
You have been warned.

Went for this over the Pixel C deal, iPad as a tablet is just better.

I wish I thought like that, still I'm not banned yet :stuck_out_tongue:

That's exactly where I was going with it but I thought I'd get in trouble so I avoided the inuendo :stuck_out_tongue:

where do you put the code?

Can not see where you input it...

Anyone have any experience with this lot? Selling the Air 2 for £311.19

I always go for the happy ending, thank you long time.

I wondered for a minute or two where all of this was going! Lol. Glad to see you went for the happy ending :stuck_out_tongue:

I have an iPad Air which I quite like, it's not as fast as I would like and wanted to get rid of it. Also YouTube on iOS sucks compared to Android, there's no back button so for example if you watch a video and then you see a selection of other videos recommended below the main video you're watching you simply can't go back to them, but you can on Android. I've tried all gestures including rude ones and showed it to a mate who uses iOS everyday and he said yeah looks like YouTube is broken deliberately on iOS as Google own YouTube.

If you disagree try it yourself, search for a video, then you get a list of other recommended videos below the main one, watch the video full screen, then try and get back to the recommended videos, you can only go back to the main YouTube page, you can swipe down the video but it will take you to the wrong place. I use YouTube a lot and this is a massive disadvantage to the Android version. In fact it's ridiculously poor, so I'll have to try out some other apps that let you watch YouTube.

Anyway I'm keeping the iPad Air as I've recently seen GeoShred and that has made me want to keep the iPad for years, that app is incredible, screw Android for tablets even though YouTube is better on Android, a lot better.

GeoShred is an amazing musical instrument, or to phrase that correctly, GeoShred turns your iPad in to a unique and simply amazing instrument >

This is the best GeoShred video I've seen, even better than anything Jordan Rudess has played on it and he's one of the inventors and keyboardist from Dream Theater. Here's the Diego Tejeida showing you how it's done >

great site i bought the ipad pro 12.9" a week or two ago when there was a voucher and 20x points instead of 5x. Ordered it at 10am on tuesday and was delivered next day. Just wish they had the ipad pens so i could use my 145 i have now in points to buy a pen, but they dont :-(

Was holding on for the pro, but at this price could not justify the extra 140 notes over a 64Gb air 2.

Apple care available on eBay

Damn, this site costs me well more money than it saves me! Heat OP

So if you had a fault in the first year, would this be returned to supplier or Apple UK? Been thinking about the one at John Lewis for £249, but for another £40, you would get the air 2, seems good deal.

Amazing find, as I was about to order one as a gift anyway. They might be imported, bt you do get an adaptor apparently.

I went for the 16gb white one, and it came to £289 as someone else pointed out.

You're right, I already had a standard iPhone charger but this only outputs 1 amp and takes ages to charge. The iPad chargers output 2.1 amps and charges the bigger battery much quicker.
The adapter they supply looks like it would burst into flames the first time I used it, getting another adapter was just another cost I wasn't expecting. Saying that, I probably still would have bought this item again.

Your receipt from the people you buy it from is when the 60 days starts - this is your proof of purchase date, not when they bought it from distribution/Apple etc.

I bought an ipad mini 2 from them about a year ago
Very pleased with my purchase, but a few points:
Yes they are non - UK. Mine was from a country that still uses UK plug (Hong kong I think). I had read other reports from people where it was from a country that doesn't use a UK plug they get an adapter instead - of course you can use your own USB adapter or plug into a USB port on a laptop/PC to charge - whichever you prefer.
Apple still honour the warranty regardless of country it came from, just in the same way if you bought one on holidays in the USA or Europe they will still help you.
Pixel seem to get their discounts by buying in bulk, and it took about 2 weeks for me to receive it, and I'm assuming this is because they place bulk orders with their supplier every week or two.

If you want an ipad at a great price that's still supported by Apple UK, then go for it.
if you want guaranteed next day delivery then perhaps best to look elsewhere

thanks

I'm getting: Please enter a valid voucher code and try again.????

You have to purchase in the first year. Year and a day: too late

Is Pixel Electronic reliable? The review isn't very good

Works for iPad Mini 4 and iPad Pro too

The code seems to be single use.

It's showing as £340 for the 16GB version for me?

and my Maths says that the 16gb is £289, good price, but is Pixel electronics and Rakuten a uk company? and what are they like?

Cheers OP. Ordered:)
