Sharp corners instead of a rounded radius, horizontal or vertical camera array instead of the square. Rounded edge bottom and flat top not like the ultra watch but seamless. Less tall and a more wide.
I’m using Apple Card using the app everything is up-to-dateI did the 5AM ordering for my iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Turns out... I didn't have to order so early. The ship date hadn't slipped yet even later that same day. 🤣
But I'm still gonna order as soon as possible this time. You never know!
Things I learned if you're ordering directly from Apple... make sure all your payment and shipping information is up-to-date... and try multiple methods (computer web browser and iOS app)
I already had my payment info ready the night before so I was ready. Or so I thought... more on that later.
The website and the app were slow to load. Millions of people were hitting the servers at once!
I finally placed my order in the app... while the website never loaded.
But I was stuck for about 10 minutes trying to get my order to go through because the app was asking me for my 3-digit credit card code and I didn't scroll down enough to see the warning. Since this was a newly updated credit card... it needed the code. But once I entered it my order went through.
Then I got worried again because I didn't get an email for almost 30 minutes.
But in the end everything was cool and my new iPhone arrived one week later on launch day!

Went base with Xs and will do it again with 15. No way I am getting it full. I still have 30gb left atm while my phone has serveral apps. No photo’s video’s though.64GB would be an iPhone 12 or older. If they are just now feeling the squeeze after two years, 128 basically doubles their available storage and they’ll still be good for a long time. Plus, it’s not like Apple’s going to forbid them buying a device with more storage. I know a number of folks that went base the first time around and that’s the last time they ever bought a base configured phone.
Like you, I just never seem to need as much storage as I buy. That’s likely something Apple has studied and knows is true, which is why they charge so much for the bumps in storage. The thing that may get me to buy 500GB or 1TB this year is I’ll be far more apt to keep the 15 for multiple years if it’s got the titanium frame. It’s been one thing I’ve been hoping for and given the iPhone today does everything I want and need, I’ll keep it until they come up with some new must-have feature years from now.I got 1TB for my 14 Pro Max and didn’t even use past 200GB on it. I’m now using barely half of the storage on 256 GB 12 Pro Max and I can easily clear that out by getting rid of downloaded movies.
So 512 gb ought to be a good safe storage size for me. It is probably overkill.
I don’t know what color I’ll want yet. I’ve only seen renders based off rumors so who knows what will actually look good?
The 15 Pro Max will be a good upgrade, the 15 Pro not so much, I'm not buying a brick, so that counts me out this year, I think the 15 Pro sales will be very poor this year 😏
Apple will begin receiving mass shipments of the iPhone 15 Pro Max this week, according to information shared today by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. This suggests that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be available in September, despite concerns over a production delay, but customers might need to order one quickly if they want launch-day delivery.

Apple is expected to unveil the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro, and iPhone 15 Pro Max at an event that is rumored to be planned for Tuesday, September 12. All four models are expected to be equipped with a USB-C port and the Dynamic Island, while many additional new features are rumored for the Pro models, such as a titanium frame, customizable Action button, faster A17 Bionic chip, Wi-Fi 6E support, and more.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max is expected to have a 6.7-inch display like the iPhone 14 Pro Max, but with slimmer bezels around the screen. Next year, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is rumored to be equipped with an even larger 6.9-inch display.
One feature expected to be exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max this year is an upgraded telephoto lens with periscope technology. Kuo previously said this lens would offer up to 5-6x optical zoom, compared to the current 3x limit.
Multiple reports have indicated that the iPhone 15 Pro models may be more expensive than iPhone 14 Pro models, with a $100 to $200 price increase possible in the United States. On social media, there has been speculation that Apple might increase the base storage of the devices to 256GB to help justify the higher prices.

No, if you're up when they go live, you can take your time and you'll still get one day one. You can probably order an hour or so later and still get one day one.I never ordered at the Apple website. Things can get pushed into the next month really quick, no? I know the Pro Max is a pretty popular phone and the hard-core Apple people are up at 5 AM buying them up
Yeah I thought that I would hang onto it at least 2 years when I got my 14 Pro Max. It’s not out of the question because I held onto my iPhone 4 for 3 years. So I invested in the 1 TB. The purple was a color I had hoped for and I am still crazy about it. It’s been my favorite iPhone except for my migraine issues with the display.Like you, I just never seem to need as much storage as I buy.

That's good to know. I haven't done the Apple iPhone order in yearsNo, if you're up when they go live, you can take your time and you'll still get one day one. You can probably order an hour or so later and still get one day one.
Does Apple release their accessories early for order or are they the same day as the phone preorder. I was thinking about adding an Apple case to my order but think I'll be sure to get the phone ordered and then worry about accessories, at worse Amazon will have cases
That's what I plan on getting. Titan GrayI wonder how popular the Gray model will be? That’s the one I’m gonna spring for this year.
I got my 7+ two weeks after launch day. Everything since then has been launch day.Have you ever not got one day one from a pre-order?
The last 2 preorders that I did, I didn’t get in to preorder for 10-15 minutes both times after preorders went live, and I still had a launch day device for both.Hopefully the shipping dates do not slip instantly after preorders open
