I was going to order the Mini in blue. But, not after seeing that video. :confused:
I think people need to reserve judgment till tomorrow when all the review embargos are lifted.

These are really crummy quality videos especially of the blue as its clear the flash is on while taking the video in a darker room. Natural light will let these shine...not a crummy flash.

And for Tim's next trick, the 2021 iPhone will have a rounded edge, followed by a return to the straighter edge for 2022. Groundbreaking stuff.
 
I appreciate everyone posting the unboxing videos that have been made before they should be. That said, have we found a Pacific Blue iPhone yet?

Just patiently waiting. Tag me when you find it. Thanx!

@naturalstar Let me find a video.

That blue looks great.

But given that its glass on both sides, it will go in a protective case right away.
 
lovely phones but is that the new packaging? Not that it matters to most but unboxing this phone I’m not looking forward to it’s looks so CHEAP. the white screen guard looks like the phone a eBay knock off...
 
It really comes down to the light source.

Keep in mind the Pro series colors are all semi-metallic, so colors will vary depending on the light.

I couldn't wait for the Pacific Blue, which had slipped to November 24 shipment when I ordered. I always loved my black iPhones, so I went with Graphite. Wow! Sort of glad I did. The Pacific Blue looks great, but so does the graphite. Think I'll go for a clear case. Now, I'm deciding on a blue or black MagSafe wallet... both look like they would look great paired with the graphite 12 pro.

What is the origin of that 12 Pro unboxing video, and why is it considered legit? If Prosser is in fact correct about devices being out for review/preview, then this is breaking embargo—which seems sketchy.

Kinda expect more from MacRumors than just passive acceptance. Any provenance, or analysis of why this is trusted?

Wait till you get an email from a mod that says '**** don't speak against what we post'!

A little bit of hyperbole there. We haven’t had flat edges since 2013. I welcome a modern take on it. You want groundbreaking? Go buy the fold 2 from Samsung. It’s 2200$ after tax and you can fold and unfold to your hearts content and continue making silly comments on Mac rumors while using it
 
I don’t think I like these flat edges. I have a feeling it will be uncomfortable to hold the phone in your hand for a long time. A case might mitigate that in a way though. Frankly speaking, there’s nothing groundbreaking about that design decision either. They’re recycling the same idea from a decade ago. On top of that there’s the notch that hasn’t changed a single bit. It’s like the iPhone 4 meets the iPhone X. Both phones are outdated now design wise.
