TBH I have this case and I ended up returning it. This is because I've had a hard time taking this case off on a stainless steel, which I'm also worried it would scratch.I ordered this one to be delivered on Monday.
I save all of mine, even if I trade the device in. The only one I don’t have is the 6, since I sold it and shipped the phone in it.
I think the mini is the star of the show - perfect for running and being out and about, with the Pro Max an almost iPad Pro Replacement now. I was also able to perfectly align the magsafe charger in my desk grommet, no unsightly wires floating around now.

LOL! I know what you mean! Their packaging is awesome! I have a huge stack of Apple boxes! Can't see myself throwing them away!
I finally convinced myself last year to throw away all my boxes (iPhone, Apple Watch, MacBook, etc.) which I started collecting the last 5 or so years. I did get a new Apple Watch from the DW last month though that I threw the box in my nightstand drawer though so I still have a psychological connection to them.....lol
Wow surprised.. It comes off easily for me.. I have a Max one will be trying it as well...
I also have this one coming on Monday.
Edit: I’m hoping it’s like the Totallee on my XS Max, because I don’t want to pay $39 for a simple clear case.
I've not bought a Totallee in ages but is it soft like the SpigenI also have this one coming on Monday.

Thank you! It’s not the brand popsocket but it’s nuckees, which is pretty similar. I don’t think i’d be able to use a larger phone without one 😂
I have the box for every iPhone I have ever had. This is my 12tb iPhone.LOL! I know what you mean! Their packaging is awesome! I have a huge stack of Apple boxes! Can't see myself throwing them away!
Haha omg i have so many apple boxes here at home except the iMac packaging i had to get rid of due to its size!!
Yup. I did the same a few months ago. I only keep them now for the sake of needing to do a return.
I need to do a purge as well but having a hard time getting motivated to get rid of them!
Did you do anything extra to get Saturday delivery or did it just switched from Monday to Saturday today? I just have a destination scan since 6 AM and it’s in my local ups
I‘m on ATT as well, and from reading your post, I chose the option “Erase all and keep cellular plan.” Not sure if this will cause any issues. Primary line is on eSim with the physical Sim removed.
A few years back I started parting with or pitching the boxes after I had sold (with box) or traded in the phones. I now only keep the boxes for the phones we own. As of now, that is 11 Pro Max (wife), 12 Pro Max (me), and the OG iPhone (2007).I need to do a purge as well but having a hard time getting motivated to get rid of them!
Always cool to be nostalgic about some of the OG stuff. Original iPhone came with Charger, Earphones, USB-A to iPod Dock Cable, an actual iPhone Dock!, the Phone & SIM ejector. So much stuff in the box, and it was about the same sized box as the 2019 iPhone 11 Pro!
I used Erase All, because I didn't want the eSIM plan left on the phone I'm trading into Apple. There was no impact on my new 12PM. I also have AT&T and use eSIM only.
Why do you say that, is there something wrong with doing it that way or just slow? I usually set a new phone up as new but it was going to take me way too long to install apps, pair watch, etc. so I loaded from my old phone. Hoping I didn’t make a mistake!
It depends. I did the transfer directly from the phone to phone and had no issues. But some reports of taking a long time. It only took me 15 minutes to complete. I have to do it this way because I don't have Apple Music and I recently got a new MacBook Pro and it messed up my playlist and only way for me to retain my current playlist is to do a phone to phone transfer.
I threw away one of the boxes recently and it still had this old thing in it.I need to do a purge as well but having a hard time getting motivated to get rid of them!
I was too tired to post pictures last night but here it is. Coming from iPhone 7 it’s a massive upgrade. Still trying to get used to lack of home button but that’s ok. I did transfer data from my old 7, but it took under an hour. All I needed to do was to set up Apple Pay and Google Authenticator app. I would say this was the easiest transition to a new phone ever.
From my experience you shouldnt worry about the stainless steel in any phone case unless you have the silver pro or if you have grains of sand in your phone case somehow. Tighter more fit cases are better if you dont want your stainless steel band to scratch, less chances of debris getting in. Obvs ymmv , but from my experience, with the x and 11 pro I havent scratched the band, and all I used were tight/fit cases.
