I also have been charging my usual. I've been waiting for my battery to go almost to 0% (towards the end of the evening) before charging since I noticed the battery degradation over the last year. I don't think I'm using my phone anymore than usual, so I'm surprised how quickly the battery depletes. It's 10:48 AM ET and my battery is at 75% with average usage (email/slack/some texting/Line). When I'm working, I'm rarely "using" my iPhone.
Yes, I'm upgrading since I upgrade every year due to the IUP. However, my battery is not great, so more reason for me to upgrade this year!
They’ve shipped! The iPhone 15 Pro Max Storm Blue Case and 240 W USB C Charge Cable 
Just waiting for Friday now

Ditto for me .. iphone 15 pro max 1 TB battery drain is huge issue for me . I got the battery replaced in June and it’s at 100% health yet by noon the 100% charge goes to 40% and without watching lot of videos or movies on it…
IUP so yearly upgrade as well here
A little bit confused with apple's presentation on the 15 pro max main sensor camera. Is it actually larger than last year's 14 pro? Various sources say conflicting information.
I just realized, I'm coming from the 12 Pro Max which is 226g, so I probably won't notice the weight difference at all. The 15 Pro Max is only 5 grams lighter.
Is anyone getting a FineWoven case? Not too crazy about the colors. Possibly Mulberry.
I'm going to give it a shot. Just getting boring black
To those who is looking to make installment payment on an unlocked iPhone using Apple Card. Unfortunately, it is true that even though the iPhone is unlocked, when you select finance with ACMI, you will need to select to a carrier as they discontinue Apple Card financing for iPhones bought without a carrier connection as of last month.
On Friday, if you go this route and during pre ordering, it will ask you to connect your carrier to the iPhone, for example, Tmobile will ask for your PIN, phone number or account number. That will activate it so that it is ready for you when you get your new phone.
The good news is that for those who would like to finance an iphone like me, we would get a 4th option to pay using Apple Pay Later. It will then allow to split purchase into 4 or 6 payments with no interests. I was told this will be shown on Friday on the online store when pre order starts. Right now, it is hidden. To get this option, I was told you need to select buy as payment option to pay full price. I hope it make sense.

I ordered two of them. I'm getting the Mulberry and the Pacific Blue colors for the Blue 15Pro. They should be here in a couple of days, if someone else doesn't review them before I get them.
I ordered one and it will be here Friday. I'll report back about it. Not crazy about silicone and I loved the leather cases. We will see how this FineWoven case is.
Same thought going from the 12 Pro to 15 Pro as it is only 1 gram lighter, but the slightly slimmer shape and slightly rounded edges are nice.
I’m buying a new iPhone with trade for store pickup,will I get instant credit for my trade when I turn in at store??

Tested this with an iPad Pro at $1,199 and $650 trade in it still wants the full payment of $1,199 which disables Apple Pay Later. Unsure if this can be set after the fact?
Trade in value doesn't apply to the purchase total since it's not done until the trade in is received. You still have to pay the full price upfront.
YES!
I had wanted one so bad but the 4s in white was delayed supposedly due to issues with Apple’s exacting standards for... “White”.
Now it’s the “Titanium White” that is closest—
but I can’t tell if it really is “silver” in disguise because of how it shifts in light.
Got mine and hubby’s Blue 256 PM’s pre-preorder set up with IUP.

This has been a mixed bag. Some say they were told that they still had to mail in their trade-in. I've never had this problem. When I was ready to turn in my device in the 14 day period, the store rep took my old device and applied the credit there. I don't see why they wouldn't take the device unless they were too busy to go through inspecting it, but even that doesn't take much time.
I’m going absolutely insane picking between natural and blue
