My trade-in disappeared, had Fedex tracking with delivery, Apple cancelled the trade in and told me to call Phobio. I felt my deal was with Apple so passed info on to bank credit card; they credited my charge the trade-in amount.
So, Apple acting with no accountability, interest in their customer or future relationships again. Very sad but not unexpected.
My white silicone official iPhone 8 case came and loving it too!
Didn't even break the bank, this and my saddle brown for net like 20 bucks... the perks of an older physical design. I prefer the leather but it’s good to have options

Apple logo is in the wrong spot. 😉
Heaven forbid somebody see your phone and think you're using an 'old' iPhone. 😆
At nearly 4x the cost for that aligned Apple logo, I’ll live
This is exactly why they need a functionality where you can swipe the SS in the lower left in a certain direction to delete. Or even when you hold it and pick a recipient, there should be a prompt to delete after.

Not sure what choices WM has, but if it allows it, you could just pay full retail. Otherwise, I think the longest is once one installment payment is made, but may depend on which carrier.

got mine Fri 1st May, pretty happy so far. the lack of 3d touch really sucks though, especially on lock screen!
I finally decided to upgrade and glad I did. Yes I had the iPhone 11 Pro but wanted the smaller phone.
the nice thing about 11 Pro is reselling it should re-coup the funds and then some for another upgrade down the road.
11 Pro has to hold its value pretty well right now too, without the Fall iPhone hype train kicked in yet.
Yeah logo is in the wrong place sent it back get one with the logo in the right place lol.
Got mine earlier today and getting it set up. Really nice experience so far. Ordered red then chickened out and changed it to black. Glad for that switch also. Using the Apple black leather case. A nice combo. Very pleased so far as to how good the speakers sound as well. This is going to be a keeper.
The stereo speakers still impress me on the iPhone (They actually seem even more enhanced/louder on the Pro/Plus iPhones.) I remember when Apple introduced them on the iPhone 7, I was blown away how much improved they were over the iPhone 6s.
Not really seeing much difference coming from my 11. Unfortunately for me, that means my service still sucks a lot of the time (at home, which is, at present, a lot of the time).
Coverage/signal is about on par with my former iPhone 7. A little better than my android pixel tho which is nice. So far sound quality is really good on calls and speaker phone. Signal at my house is only so-so on Verizon and I've needed to use the hotspot feature as my internet went out yesterday . I can verify the hotspot feature works great as well. A real life saver having that in these weird times.
The white SE is the best looking SE.
Really tempted to get one! Although my OG SE is still kicking a**!

Honestly when I think about pricing, the new SE is a heck of a deal.
Canadian pricing for it is still insane but still it is the cheapest iPhone Apple sell in Canada.
sucks
I paid $499 USD for my 64gb Gold around launch in 2016 and still don't regret it, with inflation that was a somewhat pricy SE1... never kept a phone that long even if I moved on daily driver wise.
Loved it so much I picked up 32GB ATT model for $70 when they were clearing them out at corporate stores about two years ago, its still mint and under 100 charges with no commitment.
And loving this $250 128GB White SE2 I got through the Walmart deal. I'll unlock it eventually.
For me the coverage is the same as my 8+ but I am in metro Atlanta and the coverage for T mobile around here is solid.
Been looking at getting the SE 2020 - hard to find, Apple has a 3-week wait. Best Buy had the 128GB for local pickup at various stores on May 12 - 6-days out - later in the day all stores had no stock - none for 250-miles (according to their availability statement). Walmart has been a sticky-wicket - order sits with no activity.
