iPhone 12 Pro Pre-Ordered

[iacas]

Ordered:

• iPhone 12 Pro, Pacific Blue, 256 GB
• MagSafe charger
• Blue silicone case (may return, as I also ordered something from Amazon)
• Waiting to order this Belkin deal for my nightstand.
• Really like the leather cases the past few years, so might get one of those eventually too.

I am going to wait for the 13 to come out before upgrading.

Yeah, I skip a generation or two on watches.

As you know in my family I get the new phone each year, the wife gets my old one, the kid gets her old one, and we sell the oldest phone on eBay.

As of now the phone I'll get on the 23rd is delivering in early November.

I’m trying to get a second and third year out of my 11 Pro, so no upgrade for me this year. I did just get a Series 6 watch though. 

The MagSafe thing is cool. I hope car mounts take advantage of it. I use a magnetic car mount but it requires me to stick magnets to the inside of my case, which only kind of works.

I didn't even think of that. Hell yeah. I'm sure we'll see a ton of those now that you say that. Heck, you could mount your MagSafe thing to your dash and stick your phone to it.

I'm actually seriously considering the 12 Mini.  I think I'd prefer the smaller size of the phone over the larger screen...but I am going to wait until I see them both in "real life".

It would fit your small hands better.

Won't do anything about that cabbage smell though.

I am still using an iphone 7+ and it has been acting up, so it’s about time I get a new phone. I need to see the phones in person before deciding which one to get. But I want the pacific blue. Too bad they don’t have the moss green from last year, that’d have been my first choice in color.

My husband always gets me the newest of everything and he’d take the hand me down. He wants me to get the 12 pro max, pacific blue, 512...he probably won’t get a new phone for himself until his old one dies.

You could get the year-old one. They'll be available pretty inexpensively soon, and you'll even be able to find new ones (particularly from like a Best Buy or something, I think). Or one of your carrier's stores.

Or a slightly used one.

But, maybe your husband won't want that - if he insists that you get the new one so he can get a hand-me-down eventually.

Good idea to get last year’s model! I will look into that. I still remember wanting the piano black back then because it is so pretty, but I put a phone cover on it immediately anyway so it doesn’t really matter...

Yeah. I have the green… and a green leather case. 😄

I’ve heard of complaints of the phone not coming with the charger. That it only comes with a cord.

Hi Ace:

Found this cruising cyber space. Print this off and tape it to the fridge Monday evening....I'm sure your husband will get a great laugh after a long day at work....maybe you can make it a bumper stick for your Tesla.

Heck....it will incent him to get you a new Apple phone and Kastle skis by Saturday afternoon.

Have a great weekend....just heading out soon to hit the links and hope to win some skins.

Let's get back on topic now.

I have five hundred chargers.

But don’t the new phones require USB C? So if those old blocks aren’t C then they’re useless for new phones right?
