expensive friday. ordered a green ipad air, 512gb 12 pro blue and cases for each. scheduled for fri 23


I can decide on the air, it's gotten less usage over the years. My air 2 still runs well, but the battery is so old. I hate how they priced the storage as well.

apple store app wasn't even live until maybe 8:04am EST and then it crashed at the end of the order process repeatedly. I panicked and bailed on Pacific Blue 12pro and tried Graphite back up plan but even that wouldnt work. By that point Verizon website had been live for several minutes so I thought I was doomed but I was able to get the blue pro for 10/23 through vzw successfully! Panic over!

I just went onto the apple website on a Mac, not the app, and it was 10 times more smoother than the apple store app. No lag, no buffering. Still having October 23 delivery dates. I guess have 4 iPhones in the lineup make it easier to get the phone you want when given the people 4 different options

I remember the days delivery times would slip within the first few minutes. Looks like the pacific blue time has just now started slipping. All other colors available at launch.
Store didn't open until 6:06 in Canada. My order was checked out by 6:08 (the app and website were at a crawl) and the date in my email is Oct 30- Nov3 for a pro in pacific blue

Looks like launch day delivery via mail for Canada is down. Earliest is now oct 29.

interestingly, Silver has the first date change, then gold, then blue and closed out with graphite.

A few things to note:

Totally forgot to order myself a magnetic wallet – went back to order the blue one and that took an honest 10 minutes to get in bag and checkout. Lots of “error nothing in bag” or “error payment didn’t process” before it finally confirmed it. Shipping Nov. 2 - 10, which I am not too worried about.

Also, when buying the wife’s iPhone 12 Pro through ATT monthly installments, it gave me the option to put a down payment. I was not expecting this, so I left it at 0, but looking back, I totally should have just paid the $200, which is roughly the price of the phone after the $800 bill credits. Oh well, lessons learned.

Seemed smooth. I ended up pre-ordering the 12 Pro 512 GB pacific blue. I have to see this in person. I'll likely return the 12 Pro when the pre-order starts for the Pro Max.

Oddly it still shows for 10/23/2020 delivery. So they must have plenty of stock for certain models. We will find out.
