I've read repeatedly that the Pro versions of the iPhone 12 might ship later in November, even December, but I honestly don't remember ever reading why. I feel like a lot is known about these upcoming iPhones and I don't see anything leaked about the Pro versions that would explain this delay. In fact, I see the gap between the normal and Pro versions narrower than in the iPhone 11.

Do any of you know more on what could be behind this delay?

November is a possibility (iPhone X started shipping from Nov 3 for example). December? Highly unlikely IMO.

Today Apple should announce the event that will take place a week from now on 13th of October, with preorders starting from 16
And if this happens, then its clear Apple wants 1 event/month on the second week of that month, so we can expect that Apple will make the last mac event next month on 10th of November so this way, Apple has the eyes of the world for 3 months
And this could help restore at least some consistency for Apple
 
Finally!!!

Not gonna happen.

😂😂😂

Just the first of many of your predictions that are going to end up being wrong.

I was already right by saying Apple was lying when they said "a few weeks late". The low end models won't be released until late Oct at earliest and the Pro models won't be out until mid Nov at earliest. Thats not "a few weeks" late, that's MONTHS late.

You said "not gonna happen" to an event announcement today. You were wrong.

I already called you out on the goal post moving. Congratulations on finally coming around and changing your previous November prediction on the regular models to mid to late October, which is one everyone has been saying forever now. Better late than never I guess. It's going to be funny next week to watch you run around pretending like you didn't say what you said over the last several weeks. Here you are again, moving the goal posts on the Pros now.

Nope, still saying Dec for Pro models. New rumor says they are shipping Nov 27th which is a joke. No company would ever ship the week of Thanksgiving. You'll be waiting until Dec for Pro models.

That was you just last week. Now suddenly it's mid November. :rolleyes:

Ok so do we think pre-order will open immediately following the event (like watch)? Or on a separate day at a predetermined time?

So hyped!
Likely not. My guess like last year and the previous and the one before that, pre-orders will start on Friday and has always been like this for the iPhones. For the watches they do right after but not for the iPhones.

It will be interesting to see when iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max pre-orders will start. I think they will launch November 6th or 13th.
Yea that range would definitely be a lot better than releasing where we are already into the holiday season.

Yea with all the back and forth, anything anyone says until the official announcement is falling on deaf ears for me. Same as how my hype meter has been dormant
