I bet it’s so nice getting the phone within a few days, but preorder is so fun.
Got a tip for us?

Yes preordering was so much fun. I’ve never had that fun preordering any phone than the one with Apple in November. I’m going to preorder through Apple from her on out now for every upgrade.
For sure. it’s so fun. it’ll be interesting to see if the new iPhones are coming from CHN this year or Vietnam.. that may be even more fun to track.
I know! I made that comment the other day when I saw that there would be new production facilities. I'm looking forward to the fun to be had. 😁 I wonder though if Apple will go back to launching all iPhone models at the same time. I did not like that it was staggered in 2020.

That was the biggest issue that I had with preordering. I hate staggered releases.
Yes that will be interesting to see this year.
I keep mine in a clear case and it still looks nice without the worry of going naked. ?
Anyone in EU area managed to purchase 6.1" Pro manufactured in January 2021?
For some reason I keep getting ones manufactured early December even they are always out of Apple warehouse stock when I place order for a new one, so I have had to wait for it long time. So ordering the same item in different times this year, I have always got the units made in the same week in early December. I thought there was problem getting enough parts or manufacture amounts to keep up with the demand but to me it looks like they have had these made enough to satisfy EU area needs for the last two months already. I just don't get that? Any ideas?

Almost 4 months in and I love this phone as if it was the first day! I still love the color and now that I am jailbroken, I love it even more. I’m saying this now, but I’m keeping my Pacific Blue 12 Pro Max for 2 years and then upgrade in 2022. I’m not ready to give the Pacific Blue color up.
I’m in the same boat! I absolutely love this blue and will not want to give it up so soon. Besides, this phone is absolutely amazing!
Love my 12. It doesn’t feel like that much time has passed. Quite strange really, I guess that’s what this pandemic has done to us.
I agree with this, except I am loving my white 12 as I’m able to pair a lot of cases with it. (Although I’m wishing the 12 blue was similar to pacific blue) Aside from that though, it’s perfect in terms of form factor, battery life, and I finally have a phone bigger than 64GB - so I see myself keeping it till 2022 as well.
My wife and I just joined the iPhone 12 family. My wife went from a 7 to the 12 mini while I went from the X to the 12 Pro Max and WOW what a phone. Just the feel of it in your hands is amazing.
I look forward to playing around with it more in the coming days, but I am psyched. My wife loves her mini so far, she says she loves using apps without them crashing LOL.
She got the Black and I got the Graphite.

The psychology behind a new iPhone release—and why it's so hard to resist
From scarcity to self-esteem boosts, here are the reasons Apple's iPhone marketing works.
I’ll be able to order my upgraded model next week. If I get all the money I should be getting I might be able to upgrade my iMac and iPad as well.
You’re going to love it! I decided to keep my Pacific Blue Pro Max for another year and upgrade next year. I can’t part with this color.
I was able to order everything I wanted. An iPad 8th generation cellular and WiFi a new iMac and an iPhone 12 Pro Max 512 GB storage.

I have a off brand silicon case from AliExpress, to see if I can use the official Apple Silicon case for a long time. The silicon is too slippery for my liking, so I think I’m going to stick with my Caudabe cases. Caudabe sent me a 30% promo code for completing the survey they sent me so I will own the Lucid Clear, Ocean Blue Sheath and soon the Electric Blue once it arrive. I now can’t see myself using any other brand of cases. Also almost 6 months later and I am still loving my 12 Pro Max, more so since I’ve been jailbroken for over a month.
