For those that ordered a new iPhone or Apple Watch, this thread will let you share with everyone your excitement of getting a new device.
Which device did you end up ordering, what color, and what are you most excited to try out first?
I’m just gonna walk into an Apple Store like an insane person
May the odds be ever in your favor
Well. Did it work?
he didn’t make it out alive ⚰️
iPhone 15. Been dying for that USBC. Dynamic Island is what I can’t wait for but I’m going up from a 12 so kinda the whole thing is gonna be amazing lol
I thought this release was going to be the one to push me to upgrade. But I’m holding out for another year.
XS max still going 💪
Same here but with a pro max lol. Going from a base 12 to a 15 pro max is going to be a pretty huge jump for me.
Unfortunately mine won’t be here until next week even though I preordered within 5 minutes of it opening lol.
My sister got the pro max in blue and it’s shipped. I did black and it says mid October now 😭
Yep. I ordered the blue pro max and it’s supposedly arriving mid October. I also live in the middle of nowhere, so it was expected… But now hearing someone else is mid October, I’m kinda annoyed.
Same. Oct 9-16. I preordered and couldn’t get into the store until 36 minutes past.
This morning I see local stock but since I’ve got that damn preorder with a trade in and monthly payment set up I probably can’t cancel without messing everything up. Ugh.
Yea. I’d imagine trying to change anything now would result in a nightmare. I told myself to just be patient lol
Got 15 pro and watch 9. Upgrading from an 11 and no watch. Pretty excited
Got my 15 Pro in blue. My first iPhone since the XS so I’m pretty damn excited! It’s slightly bigger than my XS but feels lighter so I need to get used to it. Took almost half an hour for iCloud transfer and now my new phone is trying to download the many apps I probably wouldn’t use haha
What’s everyone’s favorite MagSafe accessories? I’m interested in Anker’s 3 in 1 cube but it’s not available here in Australia
EDIT: just put on my ESR case and I already feel the naked iPhone feeling. I’m not brave enough to use it caseless though.
I use the MagSafe wallet, and a two in one MagSafe stand with the phone and watch chargers. I love them.
Which MagSafe stand do you use?
I use the OtterBox 2 in 1 stand. https://www.otterbox.com/en-us/2-in-1-charging-station-with-magsafe-white/78-80734.html
Though I don’t remember paying $130 for it.
I got it when the first beta for iOS 17 came out so that I could use standby mode and charge my phone and watch at the same time without having cords everywhere.
I’m pretty excited this will be my first Iphone. Going from a pixel 3a, it’s been a trooper and still runs fine, but ready to make the jump. Ordered a pro in white.
I’m in desperate need of a new phone, because my current Note 10 is literally falling apart into pieces, and all of my previous phones were decommissioned, because of battery issues after prolonged use. If money comes by, I’ll probably upgrade myself to a 15 Pro
Sigh. I’ve got a 14 pro max and there is absolutely no reason to upgrade any time soon, but I want usb c.
Pre-ordered 15 Pro Max 512 GB Black Titanium and received it today. My Spigen screen protector and case didn’t unfortunately make it to me by today, so also had to get temporary cheap screen protector and case. Best features for me coming from 11 Pro Max: USB-C, better cameras in low light and 5G.
Is it guaranteed that retail stores will have them in stock, or only select versions? I won’t buy but want to know how the “titanium” finish feels in my hand. Seems like Apple will stick with this for another year, and will probably upgrade then.
Guaranteed? No. They’ll have them on display so you could feel them, but likely won’t have many if any to actually buy on launch day. Preorders sold out pretty quickly and started pushing into mid October and early November within a couple of hours of opening up.
You should definitely be able to play with the display models, but their stock for purchase is going to be extremely limited.
Looking at this sketchy ass site https://iphonechecker.herokuapp.com/ for example, the stores near me had only 512GB Blue versions in stock and now I’m not seeing any stock within 100 miles of me.
yea I was using the display models. It’s not a bad phone but nothing convinces me to upgrade yet. I’m thinking next year will be the one. Especially considering XS max at the bottom of eligible phones for upgrade this year ha.
yea those third party sites aren’t reliable. The store I went to had a line out the wazoo just for pickup orders. A rep said they had no phones for people to buy.
I had issues last Friday with the pre-order and didn’t think to try through the web. So I couldn’t get in my 256GB Pro Max in Natural Titanium pre-order until after 0830 and my delivery date had slipped to Oct 4-9th.
But, I just got an email today saying it shipped and it should be delivered sometime between Sept 26-29th so I’m pumped about that.
Waiting on UPS. It’s in Seattle right now. Should get tomorrow afternoon. 15 PM 512gb blue.
Got iPhone. Really considering watch. But I have the watch that came out with the iPhone 12. I want to upgrade but haven’t been able to justify it lol.

I’m on a XS max (2018 release). Still going strong. I think this is the last year it will get major upgrades.
I checked it out at a retail store thinking it would change my mind but still not convinced to upgrade. I’m definitely thinking next year will be it. The titanium feels kind of nice in my hand tho.
Your phone will probably last 5-6 yrs if you want it to.

Just replace the battery if it’s annoying.
