I have pre-orders set for both silver and orange and I'm still dithering. In some of the hands-on that I've watched, the ceramic on the back of the orange looks more creamsicle-ish. The aluminum is gorgeous, but I don't really care for that two-toned look. I'm so conflicted. :rolleyes: Maybe it looks better in person.

If I'm able to on Friday morning, I'm going to order for pu at the store on Saturday. I'm also getting a Watch Series 11 and the new AirPods. (Here, Apple, take all my money!) The Watch is coming UPS on Friday — I had no option for store pu — and I'm afraid to miss the watch delivery if I try to pick up the phone on the same day. I scheduled the AirPods for Saturday pick up, so I might as well get the phone at the same time.
 
I haven’t upgraded from Apple since the 12 PM. Does anyone know when the “Get Ready for PreOrder” on Apple with AT&T is available?

Right now it just says “We'll let you know if AT&T Installments Plans become available to get ready before pre-order.”
 
I signed up for notification for AT&T Financing (within the Apple Store app), I got the notifications to "Get Ready" just now and it is now listed at the bottom that Financing Financing Plans will be available at pre-order. :(

That's what mine changed to as well.

Same for me. I currently have it saved though. This is the first year I'm not rushing/concerned about having a phone on launch day, so no biggie.

Apple to Apple is easy. This is why I am a fool and considering picking up the Air along with the Pro Max. Hopefully I am not a fool on Friday when I pre-order.

That’s going to be us 😆

Same for me. I guess it will be a Friday morning scramble for launch day orders.
 
I think I'm going down from the Max to the Pro Deep Blue this year. I like my phone but will save a little bit of money. The trade-in value is fine and I have a bit of Apple gift cards saved up so will be able to get it for a decent price. Not going through T-Mobile so I'm not locked in and with my current plan, Apple's trade in offer is better than what TMO is offering me.

@JBinPDX...you're kinda my twin because I'm choosing the pickup option this year and along with the Orange iPhone, I've also opted to replace my old AppleWatch and AirPods well :). Just FYI...I was able to do the pickup option for the Watch and AirPods with a specific day/time so it should have been available for you. I'm just hoping that when the iPhone pre-orders open...that I can chose the same day/tine for pickup.
 
Does Apple charge a restocking fee? I’m so torn. I’ve always been a pro user and have a pre-approval for a Blue 256 Pro but part of me wants the air.

If I buy both, could I return one without any fees?

I’m ATT as well and will be ordering on the ATT site first thing. Last time I tried to do the trade in/finance on Apple it was a major cluster. I’m usually done by 8:10 latest.
 
Citizens is very frustrating for me this year. I haven’t received an approval email. When I call, a rep tells me my app is pending. The next time I call the next rep tells me it’s approved. Still no email so I call again and the next rep tells me it’s pending, and then the next rep tells me it’s approved. Then they tell me that I should already have gotten an email, but then they tell me that I won’t get an email until I actually place my order on Friday. And just now a rep told me I might never get a email. Did everyone who’s financing through Citizens get an approval email?

So what did you have to do to get the phone show up as pre-approved? Did you go thru the pre-approval process from the start or is it in your Apple account?

I got a get ready email from Apple. I went through the whole process smoothly and the Apple Store shows the phone is ready for pre-order. But then I got an email from Appme that my Citizens app is pending (because I had to freeze Equifax). Then I got a text from Citizens asking me to verify it was really I who submitted the app, to which I replied yes. But no approval email from Citizens. Every time I call they give me a different status. Maybe they have some new reps because they seem totally clueless.
