Are you able to compare T-Mobile band 12 coverage with an existing phone? I'm very interested to hear about band 12 performance on the new devices.
Got a tip for us?

Can't say as I don't have a leather case in hand to use. Saw some articles though that said it did (?)
Does the color even have the slightest hint of copper? This is starting to look like bubble gum pink, lol.
It's not. Go take a look at the rose gold lightning dock. It's actually very copper-like.
This was answered in the Daring Fireball review.
The old vibrator is gone. Only the taptic engine is in use. It is much better.
woo hoo! I hated that loud POS. Thanks for the info, ill check his review out now.
Awesome!
If you go to mail and Peek (light force touch) on a message, then swipe to the right -
1. What options do you have when the message is already unread
2. What options do you have when the message is read?
Basically, from the peek, can you mark a message as READ?

(Picture remove so as also not to be offensive per macrumors rules)
But yes, proof was here.
Stuff the rules, that was the best answer to a trolling accusation I've seen for a while
Can you describe how the 3D Touch taps feel? Does it feel like you are clicking the screen (like the Macbook trackpad) or just that the phone shakes?
I can second what this guy is saying. We got our demo as well and I played around with them. I have a leather case and I'll try it out on our 6s tomorrow and let you know if the case fits. So far the only cases in aware of that won't fit the new phones are the otter box and Pelican Defenders.
I do think that the phone is pretty pink personally. In a certain light you see the hints of a less gold, more Rose gold, but straight on and at a glimpse, it's pretty pink to my eyes.
The 3D Touch haptic feedback is noticeable but subtle. It makes the 3D Touch very intuitive. I think it will be easily adapted by the less tech savvy because of it.
Also noticed that when you have the Beta Fish live wallpaper on the lock screen, you can press more and more firmly to move the fish in a forward motion faster and faster, and as you decrease the pressure it moves backwards in the same manner based on pressure.
Playing with the phones made me a lot more excited.
I can also say that inventory for our store is much better this year than it was for the 6 and 6 Plus, but we are FAR from having every option in stock. If you're lining up at a carrier store and are dead set on having a phone in hand on launch day, have a back up option.. And another back up option lol. Just to be safe.

How does the trackpad keyboard work to reposition the cursor? Do you use one finger but just press down on the keyboard hard enough?
When typing a message just press and hold anywhere on the keyboard and you see the cursor appear at the end of what you just typed and just move your thumb in the direct you want to move the cursor.
Haven't used a new MacBook. To me because of the subtle feedback you get it actually feels like you're clicking the screen like the blackberry storm 2 (yup I went there... But the 2, not the 1), except you're not actually clicking the screen. Just gives the impression you are. Overall it works. Good feeling and you know when you're activating force touch and when you're right

Does it click when you're typing on the keyboard? Kinda like what Android always do.
Does the front camera have a wider frame of view than the 6? (Can you fit more people or scenery in a selfie?)
Thanks!
Same field of view
My speck candyshell grip fits perfectly.
Tech21 fits fine
Case Mate Naked Tough fits fine
Mophie Juice pack air fits (little tight)
