Just emailed envirofone asking for a code like previous years as an incentive. Will post here if I get one.

Keep in mind, they normally send a reminder 5 days after you place your order. That reminder used to say (2016) they would lock in your price for an extra 14 days, so hopefully thats the case. If so I'd suggest locking in today or tomorrow...
 
...can't remember the keynote day but pre-orders went live on the 15th Sept!

...pre- order morning last year:

:p:p
 
Maybe a stupid question, but this is the first phone i'm trying to buy from Apple on launch day - when the pre-orders go up is that for delivery only? Or do pre-orders go live for pickup on the day too?

Pickup as well
 
I dislike the sounds of iPhone Xs Max too.
Just seems unnecessary.

Maybe they’re not going with Plus because all Plus iPhones have had a 5.5” display?
Just guessing here.

But yeah, not a fan of that so far.
 
I was quite happy when it was rumoured to be called iPhone XS for both and let them be clearly distinguishable from their sizes.

SE
6s
6s Plus
7
7 Plus
8
8 Plus
Xs
Xs Max

Maybe Apple drop the 6s and the new LCD phone pushes the 8 and below down, but for the majority of Apple’s consumers (namely not us folk on here), that don’t really have a clue on the differences, that’s a lot of options and confusing for many.
 
Naming it max doesn't leave them with many options if they ever went with a bigger screen size in the future.

iPhone XI Max Plus?!
 
Quick question for those who have an X (to save starting a new thread) - have 99% of apps been re-written for the X display then i.e. Do these apps not have a top and bottom black border like they would on an iPhone 8 Plus?

I guess I am asking - do they fill the whole of the display on the X?!

Most if not all of the ‘mainstream’ apps I use have been. Also have a number of apps which haven’t, but they are ones from small companies or services.
