Okay. Maybe I missed a thread that explains how you are getting these pics?!? Wow!! Impressive. Thought these were secure!!
 
I wouldn’t know. I’ve never seen one in person 😆
It's the worst selfie camera of any phone. And for a phone as expensive as that thing, that's very bad. Don't get me wrong, I love that Samsung is trying to push the bar for foldables. They have the resources and the drive to do so, but I can't stand them. I also really dislike Android. It feels like layers of different services on top of each other, interfering with each other. Nothing is fluid and nothing works together like in iOS. And Google can't ever seem to decide on a messaging or video platform. It just feels like a hot mess. Also the fact that Android requires an anti-virus is disturbing. I used to love customizing Android back in the day, but now I just want my phone to turn on and work. Same with computers. Macs are simple and easy to set up. I don't have to spend half the day removing built in garbage and turning off Windows telemetry nonsense and making sure all my drivers work. It used to be that a fresh install of Windows would give you clean a and fresh start. Now it's chock full of pre-loaded crap. The way iOS and macOS and watchOS and everything else OS works together is almost magical. I do all my personal and work/business stuff on Macs now and I just game on my PlayStation 5 and 75" TV. Keeps things simpler.

I went on a huge rant. Sorry.
 
I've had the XR for 4 years. 4 years has been my upgrade cycle generally. My phone before the XR was the 6S Plus. Before that was a jailbroken 4S. My first phones were Androids and I rooted those until they stopped turning on. I wasn't able to afford upgrading every year. Now that I'm in a better place, I'm treating myself. I've never pre-ordered an iPhone before.

Actually after the XR I played with a Pixel and a Samsung Galaxy Note that I thought were pretty cool, but ultimately I've come to love iOS and went back to my XR, especially since I really enjoy mobile gaming.
Nice! Are you going to upgrade with us next year for iPhone 15? We do this every year.

What do you play? I’ve been wanting an OLED TV for the longest time
 
Last year iPhone 13 Embargo was lifted on Tuesday. September 21, 2022 at 06:00AM. Don't be surprised it Embargo for iPhone 14 is lifted tomorrow. The target time is 06:00 AM PST.

It seems like this was yesterday.

 
I will probably be upgrading every year moving forward. Unless our economy tanks. Then I will be buying shovels, dirt, seeds, and chickens. 😅

Man.. You are funny. It's way too late to be acting like that. Hilarious! Hopefully, by next year you can get that UPS tracking thingy fixed. It's mad annoying.

Welcome to the club!

Thats why i am thinking Wednesday. The embargo lifted a week after the iphone 13 event.
 
I’m supposed to receive my iPhone 14 Pro Max on Friday, but I’ve seen no movement at all. Nothing, nada. I do believe it will be delivered on time.

The case for it should be delivered today, and is on its way from Decatur, IL to Champaign.

But the iPhone? Nothing.
