Have been trying it out for the past couple of weeks - some of the features are great, others not so much.
Liquid Glass has been neither here nor there for me (personally) and some of the UI bugs still persist (yes, I'm looking at the icons that revert to default colours when you've changed the tint!)
However the call screening feature is welcomed; getting to see the reason why they are calling in real time before deciding whether or not you wish to answer.
Me. Keep checking if there is any update from time to time.
Yep, even though I had the preorder saved, didn’t refresh the app and ordered within 10 mins. Let’s hope it changes this week!
Yes, it will all change from processing to “ready for pick up”. My phone, watch and AirPods are all showing as processing and I’m picking those up on Friday from the Apple Store.
me too! Ordered within 7 minutes with my pre-order
fingers crossed it hopefully changes, as normally have it on launch day
I haven’t been charged yet eitherme too! Ordered within 7 minutes with my pre-order
Yep unfortauntely. Highly doubt theres any chance it gets moved to launch date, but would love to be proved wrong.
I've got 24-29th September and it says 'Processing'. I'm hoping it changes to launch day, but I doubt it. If it did, it'd probably change by Wednesday at the latest. This is for an iPhone 17 Pro Max 1TB Cosmic Orange.
I was the same but changed my mind when I realised i can see my hand through the glass when im holding the device.
Pure iOS26 magic.

I’ve got the option to update my iPhone 11 to ios26…not too sure that’s such a good idea though, especially as it’s my trade in for the Air

I’ve just “up”graded to iOS 26. It’s so distractingly ugly I’m actually genuinely thinking of cancelling my iPhone Air order. Maybe it’s time to go shopping at Samsung.
Cancel your MR membership 😳
You complaining in here too? You have your own dedicated thread to cry and threaten to buy a Samsung.
I just saw your post here. As other posters have said, wait until you try Samsung.
It might be worth picking your toys back up and putting them back in your pram, Android really is not that great. Oh, and you can roll back to 18.7 if you really want to.
After a looooong debate with myself ever since my pre order, I’ve just cancelled my order for the 17 pro max. I used to update every year but didn’t bother last year so was very much looking forward to the 17PM. It’s strange though, having ordered it I just don’t have any excitement for it and I’m left wondering why I bothered?!
I’m on holiday at the moment so have plenty of time on my hands so I just did a scoring system to trade off each iPhone against my requirements. Interestingly, iPhone 17, iPhone Air or keeping my 15PM all came out with equal top score. The 17 Pro was a few points down and then 17 PM was last. I’m going to check out the reviews and then will think about it some more. Will hopefully get chance to see an Air in person first too. If it had the ultrawide camera too it would be a no brainer but all options seem to have compromises for me this year

Mine finally changed to PFS, was getting nervous, the past however many years it has gone PFS on the day of ordering
I ordered the armorite ones and I like the thin black edge as it prevents light leakage from the edge of the screen protector. Helps make the screen protector invisible from the edge when the iPhone is flat on a table or just looking at it side on. But each to their own 😃
