I should pick up mine TB iPhone PM in a few hours… can’t wait… still on the fence regarding the case as since iPhone 4 I’ve always used leather cases (rocked iPhone 3g “caseless” :D)… probably going to get at least a dark blue silicone case (just to have something for now) and look for 3rd party leather case….
 
this is making me secound guess my natural titanium lol
You will be fine. I believe both blue and natural are beautiful. I hadn't gotten a lighter tone iphone for awhile. Always got the new darker PM colors on launch day. This year I wanted something light. I went natural that I'm picking up at 5 pm today at apple store. I have an ultra watch and I have always liked that titanium color. I also have a silver MBA2. I did purple 14PM last year. Never really liked it. I just put a case on it and forgot it. This year I plan to go caseless. Case only for beach/pool/sports days.

I have average size hands, so the PM is not really in my favour. I understand and concede it means missing out on the 5x zoom for another 2-3 years but yeah! The regular pro size for me is perfect.

Also the Australian way of life, except winter time here, as you know its hot, we love to wear board shorts that have smaller pockets - the smaller phone size means it fits in said pockets much better as another example. But yes I feel Pro vs Pro Max is something each individual should decide for themselves :)
Yeah for me I don’t really care about the zoom or even the battery life. I have a regular 12 Pro now and love the form factor. I had a 6S Plus and remember moving to the smaller X and loved it but missed the larger screen. It’s been so long though that I can’t recall what it was like lugging around a big phone all day.

I moved from a plus to an XR to a Mini and today to a Pro Max.
I’m sure I’ll be used to it within minutes of using it.
I actually got my 15 Pro Max case a couple days early and was absolutely shocked that a family member’s standard iPhone 11 was only very slightly smaller.

Thanks for this. Neat how the light changes the color. Blue was always my first choice, but then I saw the love natural was getting. Yeah, natural would match my Ultra, but that blue is a really nice color. I would have gotten the Ultra in another color if it was available. Concerns about dropping and fingerprints, but it's always going to be in a case so what does it really matter. Re the part I can see in a case- I like the darker color camera cutout. Too late anyway - my blue is coming today! Excited.

Can you please post a picture of the blue ti with clear case?
these phots don't really do it justice but you can see how, depending how the light catches it it can look anything from almost black to mid blue in full on sun IMG_0013 2.JPGIMG_0014.JPGIMG_0013.JPGIMG_0014.JPGIMG_0012.JPG
 
Mind sharing a front shot of the finewoven case and your blue iPhone 15 pro max? Curious if the blue shows up on the front of the device at all or if the case fully covers.

I tend to love to pick out of ordinary colors (pink for men on iPhone 6s Plus for example), so this time I will definitely pick blue regardless. Still, love the sharing and my very brief in-store look doesn’t let me think otherwise in terms of the color. As for the size, just me holding iPad Pro 11“ typing this reply should show how much I care about size lol. (Yes I use iPad outdoors way more than any iPhone nowadays, a bit of out Of ordinary)

The color transition Based on lighting is a nice surprise, and shows where Apple does its best and why so many people love that. I won’t be able to get my iPhone on launch day regardless, but surely I’ll enjoy the color once I get it. Let’s be honest here: those new colors Apple added every year is the true gem in terms of color ranges. In this case blue titanium. Fingerprint? Not a worry at all for me, I don’t care.

I have the same combo and I really like it. I also like how this case feels in the hand. I'm not sure why people hate it so much.....
I have a feeling because people are expecting it to be as close as possible to leather, as its the direct replacement. It feels nothing like leather.

I’ve found as long as you don’t go into getting this case expecting it to feel like leather, you should be all good.

This looks really sharp and smart.
Thanks! I’m already keen for the Spring release to see what new colours they release for Finewoven and/or if they’ll use the opportunity to make any improvements to the case
