I hope to God, You are right. However multiple reports are reporting iPhone event to be held on September 14th.




However, since we are not expecting any delays this year. Invites to go out on August 30th, 2021 could be correct too. ;)

Ugh. I wonder if that points to manufacturing challenges.

I'm waiting to see what the 13 Pro Max has to offer before deciding. My X will be 4 years old in December and due for a battery replacement so it will serve as a backup device regardless if I upgrade. It's been an outstanding phone and has given me no issues but I think I'm ready for a larger screen..

Thanks for starting the thread @TheYayAreaLiving …I was just checking the forums for the first time in while and was so surprised to see this thread already at 4 pages and 86 posts. Now I’m getting stoked for that 13PM. I’ve been doing a lot more video content with an Insta360 OneX2, so I’m going to upgrade my 12P to the 13PM. Looking forward to all the pre-order excitement, the flight tracking, hitting the refresh button…Cheers!

I won't be getting a new iPhone this year though I'm very excited to see what Apple has to announce. Next year I'll be back to pre-order a new phone for my wife and then It will be my turn again in 2024 for my next upgrade :)

You’re welcome! Glad to have u join this year!!! This will be another good year to upgrade the iPhone since Apple is bringing portrait mode for the video.

As every year, I’m very excited and anxious to follow along all the pre-ordered iPhone straight from China. A month from today this thread will be exploding with all the excitement, anxious, curiosity, lots of emotions.

Not too much of a wait left for the September event invites for the keynote. ;)

Me too I have some damage on my mini from drops so I think I’ll use my apple care and get a semi new unit without damage and a refreshed battery

I tried using my Pro Max without a case and couldn’t last more than 2 hours. The square sides kept digging into my hands and were uncomfortable. I immediately went back to using my Rhinoshield bumper.

I'm planning on upgrading my 12 Pro Max. My Xs Max & 11 Pro Max were 256 GB and my 12 Pro Max is 128 GB. I haven't even used half my storage on my 12 Pro Max, but 256 is the sweet spot in my opinion. I will be upgrading to a 256 variant for the 13.

mine even with an apple leather case and the rim was damaged. I had a screen protector too. Go figure.

Just curious - if you’re using less than 64gb on your current Pro Max why pay more for a 256gb variant? Unless, I guess, you see your storage needs increasing to more than 128gb during ownership of the 13?
