I returned my FW wallet and black FW case. I kept a blue FW case to try out but they are not confidence inspiring. I doubt they will stay clean as easily as leather and may look shabby before a year is up. Here’s some pics I took from unboxing. I didn’t try any cards in it cause I knew right then I wasn’t keeping it.

I did buy and Umber and Golden Brown Leather wallet to go with my midnight leather wallet - and because they’re going extinct. 🥲 I made an “Ode to Apple Leather” collection at the end. 😆

Dang! Ok wow! This is pretty impressive. I’m not a big case person but this actually looks very good. Told y’all @julit0 is a master. Looks great. Good job!

If Wave2B departed from S.Korea (ICN) then yeah that is the same flight that is going to take them to Anchorage, Alaska to Louisville, Kentucky. UPS 99.

I have a feeling UPS scans are delayed for them and that’s why it’s not showing. Hopefully, when it arrives to Louisville, KY. The UPS scans will populate. It’s just miss scanning occurred when it was en route.

Mine was in China, next scan was in Louisville KY

[Whistler Mac]

Thanks! I hope you really mean that. No one in my life ever called me a homeless person until @Bananasaurus pointed that out. I got hit with that word twice too. The struggle was real last time. 😬😬

I arrived Anchorage! Expect to depart in 50 minutes for UPS99, ANC to SDF.

During layover, stopped by a bouncer at the door. He said they were screening for troublemakers because last night they'd had an altercation where a bunch of rowdy guys harangued a nice lady and went on endlessly wanted to put large charges against her card. She used only a small credit card charge for herself and rejected all advances.

Bouncer stopped me because he had a photo of troublemakers from a couple years ago, said I looked like the one sitting beside some guy named Fred (**) who farted at the dinner table amongst other raucous behavior. I denied it, of course, but what could I do? They let me in when I promised a very large credit card charge. (Of course, I lifted up on one cheek and sneaked before leaving the premises.)

I tell you, they're watching for trouble at the Anchorage stopover! Be on your best behaviors, folks!

(**). @Fred Zed we miss you on the trip this year! Hope you're doing well!

p.s. That's my version of what happened last night.

You know, I have been torn on the colors. First, I was going to get Blue. Then smudgegate started so then it was between White or Natural. I was out of time to decide so I decided to go with White. But now all these videos has me really liking the Natural. Ugh.

BTW....

Here's an adorable pic for your new iPhones. Your going to need them.

I was all in on Team Blue to upgrade from my Blue 12Pro but saw PVD scratches and switched to NaTi.

 

[HDJulie]

Seems like Natural Titanium is the best colour option out there if you are planning to rock the phone caseless ‼️

Why? I think the Blue is the best color, but any of them will look good case-less

Right! I posted it just for you. Check out the photo below. I would call it Premium Pink. I think you are the only one who ordered a Pink iPhone in here?

This iPhone does makes me want to crave a
strawberry ice cream.

Wow this is such a great shot! Definitely doing a clear case for awhile! Thanks!

Buy me one

It’s never enough. $16.99 for a premium cloth with an Apple Logo on it. You can’t beat that. You want one?

So I guess blue scratches easily compare to Nat Ti? Is that correct?

 

[FunkyTang]

My nearly 3 year old iPhone 12 Pro is at 84%, that’s a little over 5%/year. My wife’s is a couple points worse. I don’t think that’s horrible when you look at all the screen time…

My launch day 12Pro is at 83% battery health with mostly wireless charging.

 

[Jonbinary]

I thought it was the 14Pro purple. 😳

I think the natural reflects the tones of the room it's in a lot. So if a room has a lot of warm light, the phone looks more warm or almost gold, if it's in a more cold lit (daylight) room then the phone looks more cold and almost white, That's just my theory from watching videos though

 

[StudioMacs]

I have had great experiences at the International Mall store... Brandon was a bit different, the lines that were set up were a bit confusing.

How is the setup at the Brandon store?

 

[Whistler Mac]

They removed the Green dot after the redesign. You just need to check the top of the charger and if it has the Apple Logo it is post Green replacements of the original 2008 era defective units.

Thanks!

@TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ the other two chargers both have the Apple Logo. So, you'll get three good chargers!

 

[JeffnotGeoff]

Me when I finally get my new 15 Pro Max and realize I don’t know what to do with it now that I won’t need to be in this thread every second of every day:

Haha so true! 🤣 That’s also me knowing I got a launch day delivery, but I can’t use it until Saturday because I won’t be home from overseas until then lol

 

[dmr727]

So I guess blue scratches easily compare to Nat Ti? Is that correct?

It's BS. The blue Ti is fine. FINE.




It'll be FINE.

 

[tdar]

Thank you! They will be very useful for me. I could use them everyday. Definitely come in handy. Can’t believe I paid $52 just for a wire and a dongle from Apple.

When you run out of those let me know and I will find you some more. There are more than a few of them around here.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Agreed! I think it’s going to be fine. Blue Ti is indeed gorgeous. A good reminder of the famous mid-night blue.

My launch day 12Pro is at 83% battery health with mostly wireless charging.

THAT’S what we need to start next: a 15/Plus/Pro/Max battery baseline thread!

 

[JBinPDX]

Why can't the Pro models have great colors?

Because Pro models are "serious" tools for "serious" people... as this thread should prove... 🤣😂🤣

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

When you run out of those let me know and I will find you some more. There are more than a few of them around here.

Thank you! Yeah! I don’t think I’ll ever step away from 5W Apple charging adapter unless Apple stops supporting it. I know there are more other and advanced options out there such as wireless charging or fast charging but I prefer slow charging. The people in here also made it easier for me to decide.

Appreciate you and I appreciate the offer as well. Thank you!

 

[Brad7]

You have to tell them that it’s y first time after getting iPhones from delivery. it’s a flash back to what happened before when you got a iPhone.

My Googling has failed me. Please tell me what happens, the suspense is killing me.
