Saw it this morning. Selling a phone they don’t even have stock of. Lots of IOUs going around. But here’s an Apple TV!
We have like 6 in our house already with our cable service they serve as cable boxes they’re awesome. Great deal though. That might get a couple people to switch on over and upgrade.
Too bad the bad rep that the 15 pros got might discourage people from upgrading/buying because the news cycle has been like this as follows:
September 12 - "We nerfed the regular iPhones 15 by slapping a gen-old A16 Bionic chip into them. Oh yeah we are forcing you guys to buy our expensive USB 3.2 cable if you want faster charging."
September 22 up to now - US carriers (including Verizon) "We underestimated the demand for iPhone 15 pro models due to our new 3-year promotion so we got backed up with orders since we aren't shipping out enough Pros/PMs."
Same time period - iPhones can't activate via iPhone phone transfers. Apple is forced to issue a fix on this.
Early October - "iPhone Pro models are overheating like crazy." Apple once again is forced to issue a fix.
Just this week - "Nooooo i'm seeing burn-in on my screen!" Same models gets burn in issues on their screens. Apple will issue a fix next week to correct this.
Hell, MR just reported that Next year the regular iPhone 16 models will likely skip A17 chips completely and go to A18 for all 4 models. That's basically saying, "Don't buy the current pro models since A17 is buggy af." Not a good way to sell the iPhone 15 pro models if you know, Apple and the US carriers are trying to scare off their customers.
