Using my Pro Max everyday is making it harder to think about upgrading in September this year. I really love this phone and the color. Once a jailbreak is out, that may seal the deal for me.
Ditto to that. Love my Pacific Blue. If Apple does release blue again for the Pro line up on the next iphone, I may get that. If not, I'm going to hold onto this one as long as I can. Otherwise, it will be in the form of a black color.

I'm very close to ordering a 12 Pro Max on Apple.com to USA.

Are these all still shipping direct from China? If so, who is the shipping carrier? Thank you! :)

By looking at the delivery dates, it's possible that it may be shipping directly from the warehouse in the U.S as they would have plenty of stock. They either use Fedex or UPS if it's being shipped from the warehouse in the U.S.

Otherwise you can also do an in-store pick up at the nearest Apple store you plan to visit.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

I'm going to be careful then. Being on the west coast, Apple was using On Trac if it was sitting in a warehouse. I try to avoid them.

Wondering about buying as a gift from Apple - how do I keep it a surprise? Family on TMobile - at checkout it asks for phone number to send one-time verification code. Don't want to send to spouse of course, so I put in my number instead of spouse's. Will it mess up activation? Or do I just put in the old SIM on Xmas day and it will be fine?
Yessss :apple::)

It's a shame I won't be getting it for Christmas, most likely for New Year's or first days of January in my hands but i wanted the US version because of the 5G band vs Europe and also the difference in price.

Anyways I expect Santa Claus to bring me all of my gifts from the USA :apple:
Congratulations. Any reason why you wanted a USA 5G bands for Europe ? Last I checked they were incompatible, 5G band wise.

It’s showing currently over 8 days. Can’t be China ?

Depends but I'm guessing that they will now start shipping from the warehouse U.S. it shows 3-5 days delivery if you were to place one now. And if it's 3-5 days, it's definitely in the warehouse.
Wonder what this means after looking up and order.

the 11 Pro Max and 12 Pro have been the best devices Apple has released in a while. still not missing the Pro Max form factor but the Pro has been a joy to use from day to day. battery life is no issue at all. months away from the iPhone 13 and curious to see how Apple is going to top the 12 series. hope everyone is still enjoying their devices. happy 2021! 🥰
