StaceyMJ86 · Sep 12, 2023

What did everyone think about the keynote? I am excited to upgrade my 14 Pro Max. What color and iPhone variant will you be pre-ordering? I’m undecided between White and Blue 15 Pro Max 512GB. I prefer not to have another blue iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Summary of what has been announced at the keynote:

*Pre-order date: September 15
*Launch date: September 22

Does anyone know how you can apply a downpayment and still get trade-in promo credit on a pre-order/order? I did a mock order of an iphone 14 and I don't see a way to make my monthly payment 0 (after credit) by applying a downpayment.

I've had that option for the last 4 consecutive upgrades, but not on this one for some reason. I did call them and they just scheduled a callback since they still have no info on the iPhone 15 PM...

Is 36 months the only finance option on the Pro/PM with Verizon now? Last purchase was my SO's 13 which was 24 months.

Yes, they switched to 36 only last year.

When going through Apple website, AT&T and T-Mobile shows $1000 trade in for some items where Verizon is sadly $800.

Unfortunately my 12PM is only worth $450 if I trade in to Apple. You get $800 from Verizon but you also agree to 36 months worth of bill credits rather than an unlocked phone with 24 payments. Tough call.

Yes, Verizon looks to be the worst of the big 3....

Verizon $800 over 36 months, though some of that is instant.
AT&T $1,000 over 36 months
T-Mobile $1,000 over 24 months

T-Mobile has really improved coverage in my area, and their 5G is faster that Verizon.....I am going to give them a hard look for sure.
