Other Has anyone recently purchased an iPhone 12 Mini or iPhone 12?

If anyone has recently purchase a 12 Mini or regular 12 from Apple, do you remember what version of iOS came on the phone out of the box? I'm hoping for an older version of iOS 14

Thanks!!

 

[now i see it]

If you buy it new from Apple, it’ll have iOS 15 on it by now.
The time to buy the previous year’s iPhone is no later than August before the next version of iOS drops.
