Just placed an order for the 12 mini to compliment my iPad mini, I guess I just like mini things :)

This will be replacing my Pixel 4a that I really do like, but I have to admit I miss my ultra-wide I had on my Galaxy S10 and the better video and editing capabilities. Though I do find the Pixel camera processing to be better than Apple's and Night Sight to me has an edge with the astrophotography mode but that's not every day I'm using that.

I would have gone Product RED because I love red, it's really my thing but compared to the red iPhone 11 I use for work, it's just... Pink? Salmon? Not red, so had to pass on that and went with white. My last white iPhone was the 4s and I loved that phone so much. And it'll find it's way into a case that covers it up a good bit anyway minus the camera hole so white should blend well with the leather case.

Now, to re-sell a few month old Pixel 4a. I'd keep both but gotta help pay for the new one somehow, haha.

I have been watching this thread for a while and finally decided to post a question. I ordered a 256GB PB 12 Pro on November 16th, but I ordered it through Verizon instead of directly through the Apple store. When I check the status it says Shipping date December 18th. Does anyone know if Verizon updates the status on their site (including change of shipping date)? Or should I just expect to get a phone one day? How accurate have their shipping estimates been? I was really hoping to get it sooner, but now I am just hoping it ships on time.
You'll want to post your question here: https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...er-order-status-delivery-thread-2020.2259822/

This thread is specifically for phones ordered directly from apple.com, you'll get more helpful info in the Verizon thread.

Amazon is starting to take over UPS Trucks... painted Blue with "AMAZON" on the side. They are taking over the world. Sheesh, I'm glad we got our phones in October vs this craziness. Good luck ya'll!

I agree, although now if you want a 12/12 mini you can pretty much get it next day. But the holiday craziness and the surge in COVID will probably have things delayed.

Well, we ordered two iPhones through Verizon to upgrade our current iPhones. 12 mini for SO and 12 Pro for me. The mini arrived within a couple days and will be replacing an iPhone 7. The 12 Pro has a lead time of Jan 6th and will replace the XR. Hopefully stock comes in sooner. >.<

Ordered my 12 Pro in Pacific Blue a week ago on November 29, and it has the estimated delivery date of Dec 30. It’s gonna be a looong wait. I know they’ll email me when it ships, but I keep checking the app anyway even though I know it’s pointless.

Haha. May never know, it could somehow magically update and you'll never know it. When I ordered my wife's 12 Pro Max on 11/20, I put it on my deliveries app. On 12/1 I got a notification from my Deliveries App that the order has shipped, also showed up on UPS My Choice.
