Did you get an error message? At what point? I've used aeropost in the past for quite a few purchases from apple directly

Yup I used them in the past as well probably about a year old, however when I entered the address usually the sales tax (7%) would be remove, I contacted Aeropost regarding this and they said that some customers experienced issues using their address with apple.com and it seems to be blacklisted.

Well sheeeeit. Lemme see if I in that bachannal. I have an order pending

Saw some videos that said it's the Instagram app - happens on the previous model phones too

I come in here just to see who are the Stush tuners.....
Vexx and Pugsy oui...I thought you were one of us!!!!!

Bai, between 2017-2020 I ran thru 3 androids in as many years, two were manufacturer defects and one was my fault to break a screen but then the battery life went to sheit. Huawei, Motorola and Samsung. Total spent was over 10k for that.

After that I switched to iPhone and never had any issues.

Similar experience with my laptops. Dell/HP last only 2-3 years.
I got 7 from my first MBP, and I'm now on my 2nd.

The devices are more expensive up front, but if you count expected lifespan it's probably a lower TCO.

BUT to be fair, I'm not going out of pocket for that. Work covering it.

lol i buy a 13 new earlier this year
first new phone in years
previous was an xs refurb which i changed battery twice

i just buy a 13 for a padna, i ain’t buying no current model phone

i had android phones in the early days too, htc and early s2,4
android was buggy then, used to get loaded up and slow like long time windows

Not blacklisted, because my order was fulfilled and delivered to aeropost MIA as of today.

Nice, that's great - were you charged US sales tax.

[VexXx Dogg]

Apple confirmed today it's an iOS 17 bug as well as some apps like Instagram causing the overheating issues
