Other Apple.com iPhone 12/Pro/Max/Mini Pre-Order/Order Status/Delivery Thread (2020) [Merged]

First time I used magsafe charger and 20W power adapter, and here‘s my observation:

^it does make my phone hot.
^it does not charge fast, it seems like it does as fast as a normal charger. It has been charging for over 2 hours and still at 76%.
^but i also think it either slowed down or stopped charging (maybe when the phone gets really hot) and it could be why it takes longer to charge.

does anybody experience this as well?

I still have mine on order was hoping it would be faster than my samsung wireless which works as normal with my 12 ProMax but heating up is anyone else reporting this I know many are not out yet....

 

[anjo10]

Yes, most chargers will slow when it gets hot. But they also slow when they get above 60% charge, then slower when they get 70% etc. all the way till 100

Ok so this is normal behavior. I was worried a bit lol

Yes on my samsung wireless charger my 11 promax would charge to about 70 percent and do rest during night after battery management learned my charging patterns. So yes pretty normal although the heating does worry me a bit will see when mine comes in another week or so.

Does anyone know what time Apple Stores refresh their stock for in store pickup? When the X came out I snatched one for same day pickup by checking at 6am but I’m not sure if that method still works. Has anyone been able to order a 12 pro for same day in store pickup?

I was able to a few days ago. I saw it around 8am CST. Keep checking daily. Stock comes and goes and it seems at various times of day.

Finally got HP Mini movement. “preparing to ship” Anyone have theirs shipped yet?

I‘m Preparing to Ship as well, but haven’t located any tracking information yet.

TIL so much in the MacRumors forum. 🤓✏️🗒 Thank you!

There won't be a quiz, will there?

Remove your serial number ma’am!

Coming from the XSMax, the camera difference is ‘night & day’ (pun intended). 😁

I did like my XS Max camera, but the 12 Pro Max blows it out of the water!
Cannot wait until the ProRAW format comes to this camera! 😁

*I did stop in Apple today to say good bye to the XSmax, they actually do have plenty of 12 Pro Max's in stock.

Messing with different modes this morning (Always love the "Noir" [tree w/ leaves, sky] it's ALMOST B/W infrared, but not quite )

I’m a sucker for noir photos.

This case is lovely! What is it called!?

This is the Figura Series Case with MagSafe from Otterbox!

“No nend to change screen” how are typos not spotted lol

You should see the manual. English is not their first language. When it boots up, I’m greeted with “waiting for connecting...” 😂

 

[Shadowbech]

I have the same “package is in transit” for my pro max. Did you end up getting your phone when expected or was it delayed?

I did cancel the ups store pick up and was delivered to my house with no delays

 

[ladytonya]

I haven’t tested mine, either. Nothing here worth taking a picture of lol. Don’t really go anywhere these days besides the grocery store because of COVID. Although I guess I could take pictures of the high prices and empty shelves. 🤑

I took a video of my cat playing in the sink and took a selfie of me putting in a mask in the dark bathroom to play with night mode. 🤦🏼‍♀️

 

[ladytonya]

I like that Blue leather case. Ordered one. It will be here Thursday.

I was drooling over the blue leather case at the Verizon store tonight. I want it so bad but my pocketbook says no, you already have a $60 LifeProof case you greedy woman! 🤦🏼‍♀️

And yet another false alarm

I would have chased him down the street!

 

[rjjacobson]

Testing night mode other than porches its dark and rainy but not on these new cameras definitely better than my 11 promax significantly

Well, it shouldn’t get too hot! But my battery gets hot plugged in too, well when I use it and charge at same time(extra energy it needs) heat=bad. Monitor it maybe. If it’s constantly doing it, might have a problem..

 

[DumbPhone]

same same...mini camera look have light when black in night...kaa

 

[aesc80]

I swear, I’m not a big fan of the digital zoom. The night mode + stabilizer is dope. With digital zoom, not so much.

I just find it a wee too blobbie to zoom and trim it. What you shoot is what you get.

 

[Bea220]

Remove your serial number ma’am!

Dammit
I didn’t even realize I pasted it on there. (I was the testing my MacBook to see if it remembered when I copied it)

thanks!

that’s not my phone’s serial but still, good catch.

Nice shots! Name of the location please.

A few hours in and I am loving my Pro Max. It doesn’t seem that much bigger than my XS Max. I didn’t get a chance to try the camera yet, but I can’t wait to see the pics and how it differs from the XS Max pictures. Has anyone tried to find a person’s height with the Lidar sensor? How do you do that?

 

[darinzook]

Love that artsy flower case! Nice. Is that a silver phone?

Yep. Been buying the silver model the last 2-3 years because I like the look, and she prefers it which makes it easy as a hand me down. 🙂

 

[Pipper99]

I see someone caught me on a cold day! I’m honored by the acknowledgment but certainly caught on my weakest of days! 🤣😂 (and I’m not into dudes, so there’s that! 🤣🤣🤣)
