cool, I usually change colours. currently got space grey XS but bored of the colour.
Ordered from Carphone Warehouse after numerous other site crashes and deals that didn’t seem worthwhile.
Got the Vodafone unlimited contract for £62 a month with unlimited everything and can use the phone around the world at no extra cost.
First time I’ve strayed away from space grey or black!
Got a 256GB Sierra Blue iPhone Pro coming on launch day!

for the new phones you don't get discount. you will later on down the line though.
I gave the 5 teams I manage at work 15 minutes to get their new iPhone pre-orders in at 1pm.
Fortunately they were all successful!
If I find out anyone's using Android they'll get their P45's on Monday

I locked in £500 with MM on Monday, the day before the reveal. Gives me plenty of time to collect and play with my new device on 24th and over the weekend before shipping it off. Trying not to spend that “free” £500 on an iPad mini, it’s too cute!!No lock in the price now. I locked mine in last week on the 8th at £500 (11 Pro Max 256GB).
If I put it through now its dropped to £420!
You may find yours has dropped too - go through checkout to lock in the price for the next 21 days. If you change your mind just don't send it in and the process is cancelled.
Usually get Silver. Went for Blue this year.
Will that arrive on the 24th though??
I thought they get their stock on the 24th and send for a next day delivery......
Same
Actually no, they randomly send the notification , I got a £2 selling fee earlier . Not that ‘am ready to part with my PB Pro Max😙
I'm having exact same problem. can't decide between the two. i'm leaning more towards the sierra blue as it's a new colour.
Amazon stil seem to be saying when released but doesn;t guarantee delivery that day. I used my 5 monthly payments up yesterday buying an iPhone 12 as a stop gap so I can send mine to Music Magpie before my 21 days are over.
If I remember last year (during the pricing error) my order was delivered on the Saturday not the Friday.
I went with Sierra Blue so should look a great contrast against the Abyss Blue case.
I’m picking up in store though, I won’t be sending my old 11 Pro off until I have my new phone next week. I think we get 14 days to send our old iPhone though right?
I doubt the error last year was Amazon, I am pretty sure it is Apple who run their own Amazon marketplace.
True of a lot of YouTube reviews and websites about a whole range of products.
By slating a device they've been given for review, they potentially won't get an invitation next time and that's their income shafted.
It doesn't apply to them all, of course, but I still prefer to wait for reviews from people who actually went out and bought a thing with their own money because they actually intended to use it regularly. A person's happiness with their purchase is, to some degree, dependent on how much they spent on it.
Well I broke and got pre approved, ordered a 128GB Pro Max (Graphite) interest free Barclays From the Apple store delivery 24th.
Then I decided to go and check out what EE were offering, a mess of a site for about 50 minutes. They’re offering a 1TB Pro Max for £76. (I have a f&f 20% discount with EE, which helped)
On the loan choice and with my current ‘sim only’ contract I’d pay £76 (£50 for the phone and £26 for the sim contract).
So I have gone for the EE deal too and will mull it over for the next few days before I scrap one. The phone from EE being locked for 6 months isn’t a deal breaker but for a dual sim phone it’s a bit of a disappointment. Especially since it will be illegal for them to sell carrier locked phones from December in the UK.

Even if it's delivered on the Saturday, does it really matter about a day? Maybe that's just me.
last year the mispriced iPhones have been delivered on Saturday, not bad for a huge discount
2 hours after pre-orders began, there is no slippage for iPhone Pros 256 GB.... is this a first?
have to say the Verge are pretty unbiased in theirs.. unlike iJustine!
Nilay and Dieter's reviews are great
Still very close in the current poll with 13 Pro Max's - Sierra Blue has 86 votes, Graphite 83 votes, pretty amazing.
Easily managed a Gold 128gb for 24th delivery, as expected pretty much all models are still available for a 24th delivery or pick up from my local Apple store
now to wait until I get it next week and have the annual ‘really didn’t need this’ feeling! 😅
