Anyone else notice this footer on the iPhone website? Wondering if it’s safe to place an order if it’s not yet approved by FCC.


iPhone 12 Pro Max has not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. iPhone 12 Pro Max is not, and may not be, offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.

It's not like you have a choice. You can't place an order for the Max or the mini until it's authorized by the FCC. It's likely both models were delayed in terms of design, validation, and submission. That's why both of them have yet to receive FCC authorization.
