    Who’s upgrading? Who’s staying?

    Mine left China and has blipped away from UPS. Been saying this for a few/several days now. Your package is in transit. We're updating plans to schedule your delivery. Will give it a couple more days before calling Apple. It's a 14 ProMax Black 512GB. The return box for my 12 ProMax is...

    Mine's pushed to 9/27-9/30 for the Black ProMax 512

    Just off the phone with Verizon

    Mine jumped at checkout from 9/16 to 9/27-9/30 and still showing as Processing on Apple's site. So I guess I am not getting a new phone this week. However, will have a new case from Apple today. That shipped.

    Lead times or waits by model.

    I had everything set and prepared via Apple the night before. I was waiting at 5am, the store did not open until 5:05am. I was checked out in 30-seconds and my delivery jumped from 9/16 to 9/27-9/30. I could have canceled and switched to in-store, but I figured why drive 67-miles each way and...

    iphone 14 pro - Which color?

    I usually go with Black or Space Gray, but my 12 ProMax was the blue. But I use a case so I keep forgetting. I guess I will miss the Blue, as I went with the 14 ProMax 512 in Black.

    Verizon iPhone 14 Series Preorder Thread

    I am hearing that from more people lately on Reddit. I did not do any financing, put the whole order on one Amex. Could not have ordered any sooner, it was 30-seconds from opening with the items in prepped for purchase. Maybe due to trading in my 12 ProMax and they want to bundle with the...

    Verizon iPhone 14 Series Preorder Thread

    I purchased through Apple direct with ATT as my carrier (it's still an unlocked phone). With the ESIM it makes life (I am told) a bit easier to get up this way. Normally I just get unlocked and set up with carrier later and just swap sim cards. Still showing 9/27-9/30 but my Silicone Case...

    Verizon iPhone 14 Series Preorder Thread

    No clue why I did not get that. On the iPhone sub on Reddit, seems there are more like me that got dates pushed back to end of September or early October and they also checked out between 5am PDT and 5:05am PDT. Maybe it's the Black phone? Maybe it's the 512GB? Maybe it's due to the ATT eSim...

    Cases for iPhone 14

    Yep, looking back over the last decade I most likely spend the equivalent of an iPhone 14 ProMax on cases, that never got used more than a couple/few days. I also have about 10-hats and wear the same 2 all the time. Time to stop that!

    Verizon iPhone 14 Series Preorder Thread

    I had everything ready to go and was online at 5am (Oregon) and finally they opened at 5:05 and I was checked out by 5:06 and still it's showing end of September. 9/16 seems to only have been in-store and I guess I could have done that and driven up to Portland. But I can wait 10 more days...

    Cases for iPhone 14

    I always buy too many cases, and I find 90% of the time I prefer the Apple Silicone Case (Product Red) so I ordered one of those, and I am done. I have about 4 cases for my 12 ProMax and the only other one I use is the Apple Leather (Product Red) and I keep going back to the silicone. one...

    Who’s upgrading? Who’s staying?

    I woke up early to upgrade from a 12 Pro Max to a 14 Pro Max, store open 5 min later than expected. I got a 14 ProMax in Space Black 512 with a Product Red Case, but delivery is already delayed on the Phone Only Delivers: Sep 27 - Sep 30 at least for me. Store pickup is still 9/16, but I did...

    iPhone 14

    I have my pre-order ready through Apple's site (from the email they sent over) 14 ProMax Black 512GB with Apple (Product Red) Silicone Case + 2 Years Apple + w/ Theft coverage. Trade in my 12 ProMax for a $525 credit. I guess I could sell it on Swappa for a bit more, but this seems easier...

    iPhone 14

    Seems like the iMore forums are dead... came to talk about the new 14 Pro Max and there's nothing.... I skipped the 13 and hoped to get a 14 this year. Oh well...

    Who’s getting the iPhone 13 / 13 Pro / 13 Pro Max?

    Even with the high trade in value for the 12ProMax I just am not excited about the upgrade. I doubt anyone would even understand how I am feeling, I literally just thought I don't want the hassle to restore a new phone and replace my cases for such a little change to the phone. How weird is...

    iPhone 13: To upgrade or not to upgrade?

    Ditto I have nearly 2/3 of the storage still available on my 12ProMax, I got the blue color, which i never see due to the red case. I have never run low on battery.. I don't see enough changes to get me excited enough to buy a new home. Phone is still pristine, never been out of a case...

    Will you trade your 12 for the 13?

    I never said the watch had "much of an upgrade" between the 6 and the 7, I just said I may do the upgrade, mostly because I may want it.

    Will you trade your 12 for the 13?

    I don't see enough changes in the 13 Pro Max to make me want to upgrade my 12 Pro Max that's working just fine. I always like the BEST camera, but I really am doing fine with the 12 ProMax camera now. I can't justify the upgrade if you can even really call it much of an upgrade. May upgrade...

    iPhone 12 Pro Max battery at 98% and always recharges to 98% (never 99% or 100%)

    Sorry, that was 7-months ago, I can't recall what forum it was... but the answer is above too >>> Just happened to me. Go to Battery, Battery Health and turn off Optimized Battery Charging. It fixed my issue. Was stuck at 98%. It is 100% now.<<<

    Should I get an Apple leather wallet w/MagSafe for my new iPhone 12?

    How does it charge with Magsafe and how many cards can you fit. I can't just leave with one-two cards and a DL. I carry at least 4 cards plus DL plus I would need some cash "just in case" and my insurance (Health Card / Auto Card) etc. Can it hold 10 items w/o issue? Can it charge with...
