Don't forget we have iOS 12 to play with tomorrow! I have a case coming in Wednesday myself. Yes, work helps too lol :)

I’ve been on the beta for iOS 12 for a while already. I’ve been enjoying it, love the notifications and smoothness of it. I don’t have access to Animoji and other exclusive X features being on an 8 Plus, but that can be my new discovery come Friday.

if you are currently on device payment and you pay off half and trade in and order a new XS, how long do you have to turn in the old phone?

id want to be able to have both phones in my possession until the xs return window is up, or at least like a week while i decide if i want to keep or return the xs...wouldnt want to turn in my 8 immediately only to decide i dont want to keep the xs and end up with no phone.

verizon chat says old one has to be turned in within 15 days which is what i would expect, but i never trust carrier reps.

I have done this the past 3-4 years. It's super easy. As long as you have the phone checked in by the mailing company by the 14th day you are fine.

Hi all! Finally joining this thread after ordering my 64gb silver XS around 2pm today. I had to wait until today due to an ill-timed plan change that wasn’t due to go into effect until the first day of my cycle, which was today (could’ve been timed worse I guess, lol), so I couldn’t order on Friday with a pending change on my account. We are traveling right now and on Friday will be in Gatlinburg so I had it sent to the hotel. I hope it works out because we’ll be leaving there on Sunday morning. I wasn’t even sure I wanted to order as part of me thinks “you’ll have to pry my home button from my cold dead hands,” but since inevitably I’ll have to make the change sooner or later, I might as well go ahead and do it now since my annual upgrade is due.

can you really not preorder with just a pending plan change? i have tried to get to the checkout screen on a device payment upgrade on several devices across a couple browsers just to see todays out of pocket costs if i were to upgrade but i can never get past the page where you select the device to upgrade - the radio buttons to select a device never work. i do have a pending plan change for travel pass effective october 2nd on the account, wonder if thats the problem?.
 
I have been on the beta for months now and it's great. No really big changes beside Mimojis and Group FaceTime. I just hope people who are on the beta need to make sure they are on the most current version out now. Or they won't be able to use their backup to setup their new phone.

I did the beta for the first time with iOS 12. I’m on the golden master right now and it’s great. Will I just stay on this version come tomorrow or will there be a final update applied to my devices?

Got my Spigen case from Amazon today. Really looking forward to going back to the big screen with the Max.

Yeah, I don't have any other backup devices to beta test iOS 12, so I will be using it for the first time tomorrow!

My saddle brown Apple leather case for my Xs Max just shipped! Can’t wait for that fresh leather feeling!
I have a new black leather one for my Xs on the way!
 
Anyone else have issue of once your Verizon order is place the shipping address is off? This my situation, if I change now they have to cancel the order! Any advise? thanks!
 
Has anyone who ordered off the VZW app payment went through yet they still haven’t took the funds from my account yet but I expect it should be on Monday

They have charged me the full amount. I ordered the Xs 256 Black and an 8 64gb
 
I’m starting to get worried because I haven’t been charged yet. I was never asked to provide payment information when I ordered. My email said it was being charged to my account. My order processed at 12:02am PST on 9/14 for a iPhone XS Max SG 256. Has anyone seen movement on this model?

I ordered one of those. You should go to the order status page and try entering your order number. If it requires payment, that should show up.

I have bad eyes. So I miss the bigger screen. I’m hoping the Max has the zoom feature the X didn’t have in iOS. But like you I cannot wait to go back to a bigger screen. Width wise at least. And bigger keyboard layout on the phone.

Nope, you really can’t! So weird, right? It’s been that way for years and you’d think that would be something they could fix.
