Yeah, the blue on the 12 is really lovely. Went for the blue Apple Watch this time, and it looks great.
I do like the pacific blue, but not too sure about the shiny bezel. But I fancy the camera upgrade on the Pro. But its 2020, and I won’t be travelling for months and taking pictures because *gestures broadly at everything*
So, I’m no further forward.
No idea, tried both of my email addresses, one of which is my one used for Apple and both been declined, no idea why.
Anyone know if NHS employees can get a discount on these? I signed up for the Health Service Discounts account with my NHS email address but it is still showing the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro at full price, with a slight discount on the 11 (£586.80 vs £599). Is it normal for the newest models not to be discounted?
Thanks
Thanks
Same boat. I actually have been given a work iPhone for the last 8 years, which i can use as a personal phone, which is nice of course but means I can’t upgrade entirely when I want to (current on an XS Max so no need to upgrade).Looks like I’m joining the pre-order hype train for tomorrow
My wife has decided she wants the regular Pro not the Pro Max so I’ll be ordering for her tomorrow.
I won’t be at all jealous that she has a new iPhone before me…
i'm in the same boat i have an xs max so size wise very similar to the 12 pro max the refresh rate for me was the blow that killed it for me this upgrade cycle.
Apple knew they could get away with doing incremental upgrades this year as adding 5g they think is enough to draw people in and it will. I've upgraded every year since the iphone was released then last year the upgrades weren't enough and this year isn't either hmm maybe i'm getting old lol
engadget and others are saying this year its just incrrmental upgrades and next year will be refresh rate perhaps even going entirely wireless now they have magsafe with no power port that would make the design even slimmer but thats probably afew years down the line.
it probably does help that ive just got the fold 2 and i still go wow when i see the display i'm heavily invested in the apple ecosystem and that won't change but next year they better do some damn good upgrades just increasing the camera quality and different colours just doesn't cut it for me now.
edit
but i'll still be reading the comments and watching you guys getting frustrated when the site crashes while you try to order then ask for divine intervention from saint francis when the order is delayed lol
It wouldn't be the same without this thread each year !!
Yes, it's normal for new models not to be discounted for the first 3-6 months.
EE offered me today on live chat after pushing them for 2 hours.
£22 unlimited everything 24 month contract 5G one smart benefit included sim only plan
Another plan they offered aswell is £16 for
200gb data 5G ready.
Taken the unlimited deal for 22 pounds now need to wait till Nov 6th to preorder my iPhone 12 pro max in blue colour.
Let's hope we are not having a national lockdown on the 26th October heard rumors going around nothing is comfirmed.

Got the phone hearted on the apple store, payment method updated and all ready tomorrow to preorder.
I managed to get 200GB on EE with 5G included for £16 a month
Great price. I upgraded to that plan recently for £28/month. There’s also a free BeatsX included which I was not aware of until today when I got a text informing me that it’s on its way!
I'm thinking heading back to live chat tomorrow. (prepared for another 2 hour fight) and Change my plan to the 100gb for £12 5G plan(hardly use anything over 50gb these days due to working at home)
Damnit, I need to get off Vodafone. Look at those prices.
OK, I’m going SIM free, not upgrading.
Be interested to know if you guys are out of contact
They wouldn’t bunch before when I phoned up because I couldn’t get student discount to work on the
£20 100GB deal. Just said it’s discounted already so they can’t get it any cheaper.
Not out of contract until May 21 but can upgrade now

I went through my employers discount programme on Tuesday and was pleasantly surprised to see them discounted. Checked again today and showing as per your screenshot.
In the end I was pleased because it removed an added complication to the order process which would have reduced chances of securing a launch day delivery.
