Giving my 12 Pro Max to the wife and getting the 13 Pro max, only question is colour. I have no idea what the black and bronze phones will look like, the renders i've seen are all over the place.

The phone wont feel like a huge upgrade but i certainly am looking forward to the small improvements Apple has made to the 12 Pro series. I wonder if they'll introduce new style cases or stick to the ones from last year.



Only other thing i'm interested in is the new Macbook Pro in the fall and Airpods 3. Other than that i'm good on Apple products for some time.
 
just a question, given that there will be supply constraints for the remainder of the year especially for iPhone's, how likely is it that everyone here will be able to secure a launch day device? I think that Apple moving the pre-order timing to 8am EST gives many more people the ability to pre-order right on time. I'm expecting a difficult time securing a phone (especially because i always choose pick up in store instead of delivery, which requires extra steps at checkout). Not bothered if i don't get a launch day device, but would be super annoyed if i had to wait more than a week. My wife is using a cracked 8+ and needs a replacement asap, can't hold out too much longer
 
Question about how to trade-in my iPhone 11 Pro when doing the Apple Upgrade Program...I just finished two years of my previous upgrade program and now own the 11 Pro. I see that I can trade it to Apple for around $500. If I want that to go towards paying for the 13 Pro that I want to get through a new upgrade program initiation, how will that work?

Do I just sign up for the upgrade program and it'll ask if I have an iPhone to trade towards it? Do I trade it in separately in a few weeks and the $500 can be used towards lowering the monthly payments of the new 13 Pro upgrade program phone? Thanks!

I have a feeling the trade-in value will drop to $400 after the keynote. I'd love for it to stay at $500, as I'm also trading in an 11 Pro, but chalk that up to wishful thinking.
 
Anyone else have the "Your divide is eligible for an upgrade" link in the apple store app, like they usually do for those of us who are in the Upgrade Program before a launch to get everything set up? I have the link, but when I tap it, the info flashes on the screen for a second, then goes to a skinny that never loads anything.

Yup...same issue, sort of...it tells me I'm eligible with two more payments (the payment due next week is my 11th, I know I'll have to make one more), I click Continue, and it takes me to the main iPhone page on the website. Don't think they are quite up and running for the "pre-pre-order" thing yet.

I have a feeling it’ll be finalized by next week. Should be up and running.

I went ahead and called the Citizens One iPhone loan department and had them charge an extra payment to make my 12th required payment. I've checked my upgrade eligibility w/ Apple on the upgrade program and now it says I'm eligible. I didn't want any hangups next week! The Citizens website was terrible and clicking the link to make an extra payment was circling back to nowhwere. I think they want folks to physically call in. I also figured there may be a rush by folks who upgraded in October (last year was my first year on the Apple Upgrade program) - and I wanted to make sure there was time for my payment to process.
 
Just realized it's taking me to the iPhone 12 pre-order page...that ship has sailed. I agree, this year's version will prob show up right after the event.

You don’t think they will waive the 12th (last) payment to upgrade early? Has that ever happened before? Or do they require you to pay it off?
