My husband and I decided to have a stay up party when the phone launches this year. We are taking the day off from work, so we can actually sleep in once the phones are preordered. We haven't decided on a color yet though, we'll decide when they announce the new phones.

I’m actually thinking of taking the day off to preorder as well. My fiancé have the 11 Pro Max and isn’t concerned with upgrading for a few years. My 3yo have to go to daycare and my 8yo have virtual learning. Come to think of it now I will take the day off and preorder while she have class. I’ll nap when she have lunch.

So, I can have the latest and greatest iPhone. I don’t feel like waiting till November for the Pro Max model. I rather order the regular model play with it until the pro max model gets released.

yes I know, I’m a sheep 🐑
“Hello, My name is Theyay, and I am an Apple addict. I can‘t stop myself from reading and posting on MacRumors, or constantly refreshing the Apple website on order day, not to mention buying different iPhone cases that match my outfit each day.” :p
 
I can see how you might think that. My job is to keep everyone else here in line, so they don’t become full blown addicts. :D

When you get accused of being an Apple BOT, (like you did) you might be an addict. :p
Can’t deny! I agree with you. Lol not sure why people are accusing me that I’m a bot. I’m just a hardcore Apple fan.

I’m already there (at the full blown addict level) I wasn’t planning on upgrading this year but the 5.4” 12 has me intrigued every time I hear about it 😩

I would recommend just getting on the iPhone Upgrade program. I love it. After a year you can upgrade without hassle or you can keep paying for another year and own the phone outright. The price you pay is the same if you paid for AppleCare and the phone all at once.

Maybe if you bought some apples at the grocery store, it might help the Apple itch you have. :p

But you eat it and it’s gone. These apples you can use for hours and hours a day.

Hmm, I actually never thought about that. Might not be a bad idea..

I don’t think Apple gadgets are a vice, unless they are your whole world. As long as you go outside at least once a month to look at real people, you should be fine. lol

Oh I agree and was kidding. I do sometimes get appalled reactions on here when I mention that I love upgrading each year. I'm responsible with my money overall and consider this my splurge. No regrets.

There are a lot of people on here who believe that if they can’t afford a new Apple toy, other shouldn’t get one every year.

I think a blue phone and watch would definitely look GQ and draw the eyes of the ladies. :D

Currently have the 11 Pro Max on the IUP and will likely get the 12 Pro Max. Seems like we won’t see the larger phones debut next week unfortunately - or perhaps they debut but go on sale in October.
