How do you like it so far?
I love it. For me the larger screen size was a key factor as I did watch some videos and 4.7 inches was a little small. And the fact I could go ahead and get the biggest storage space available meant I was able to download all my Apple Music Playlists and not be using about 50% of my storage space(with some other things I have downloaded) So all in all a very good upgrade.

I haven’t been disappointed yet with this phone. Even though the next generation is estimated to be released on the normal September schedule, I’m keeping my Pacific Blue Pro Max for another year. I can’t give up this color. I’ll just get a battery replacement when it’s needed. I have AppleCare+ so I’m not worried about that.

Same! I love my 12 Pro Max and the Pacific Blue (especially since blue is my favorite color) is not something I want to give up. I’m happy with this phone and plan on keeping it at least for another year or two. Such a great phone!

Blue is one of my favorite colors. I’m glad they didn’t make the blue dark. I’ve been using my Caudabe Lucid Clear case so I can see the color everyday while having my phone protected.

Nooooo! You have to order a new bronze color. It’s going to look so dope.

I don’t know. I love the color of this phone and can’t see myself buying another color this year. This phone is so amazing to me coming from the XS Max. Plus it’s jailbroken right now, and who know how long it’ll be before another jailbreak is out for iOS 15. I had to deal with no jailbreak while using the 12 Pro Max because I was excited to use this phone. I guess we have to wait and see what Apple put out this year.

Had the phone a month now and still love it. I had nothing against the 2020 SE and it’s my backup but for once I decided to go all in with the newest technology and storage space. 😁
