Why not swing by an Apple store or anything that sells XR's and compare?If I go from a 7 Plus (401 ppi) to the 11 (326 ppi), is that resolution drop something I'd notice? Kinda worried about that.

Hm, definitely an option.Why not swing by an Apple store or anything that sells XR's and compare?
Depends on when you get your order in. If you get it in with stock still available for release date, it'll arrive on the release date.When does Apple typically ship the phones after pre ordered? How long does it take to get to somewhere?
Nope. I switch between an XR and the X and don't notice it.If I go from a 7 Plus (401 ppi) to the 11 (326 ppi), is that resolution drop something I'd notice? Kinda worried about that.
I really want an 11 Pro Max but just cannot justify the price tag. But damn my 6S Plus is really showing its age...
How's the case feel? Wondering if it's worth the $39 price over cheaper clear case options. Gotta let that Midnight Green shine.
If you can hold on just one more year for the XII I'd do that. Something tells me Apple is going to completely revamp the iPhone. I just feel it. Or was that the burrito I had earlier? 🤔I really want an 11 Pro Max but just cannot justify the price tag. But damn my 6S Plus is really showing its age...
Really gonna ignore claims of up to 5 hours of extra battery life?So it really was just a camera upgrade? lol
Goddamn hope my 6S can last another year
Yep because 1080p on a 6 inch screen is really doing much for you.
I was Space Grey on my XS Max and think by far Silver is the most stunning this time.Went space grey for my Xs Max. Do I go silver or gold for my Pro Max? I have a peel clear case coming.
Literally the exact same choices my wife and I made.Well my preapprovals are finally done for both phones. Wife wants a Space Grey 11 Pro and I've decided to go a little different this time around with the Midnight Green 11 Pro Max this time around.
Roll on Friday morning!
I'm not but most of my family is.
Yeah I'm still struggling to decide between that and the green.I was Space Grey on my XS Max and think by far Silver is the most stunning this time.
Question to my tmobile people:
I have the X and was on jump for it. Decided since I only have 50$ left on it to pay it off. For all intents and purposes now, it is mine correct? I got pre-approved for the apple upgrade program, so all I need to do is once I order it from apple is trade in my phone with them.
Am I understanding this right?
edit: just checked my account and it was an EIP installment plan, which shows payed off now. Guess I'm free to go ahead and utilize apples program now. With apples program: do I always HAVE to upgrade once I reach the half way, or is it an option? And can payments be made online
I hope color options for Pro continue expanding next year. I want fun colors damn it.
How much do you pay, from what I understand you never own the phone but make monthly payments, within one year it should be like paying half of the device and when you pay that 50 percent, you just turn it in and get that years new iPhone.
Correct. Its a 0% interest loan.How much do you pay, from what I understand you never own the phone but make monthly payments, within one year it should be like paying half of the device and when you pay that 50 percent, you just turn it in and get that years new iPhone.
Just like that right?

This is good to know. I got on the plan last year but I don't want to give up my XS Max for an 11 if I could keep this another year and sell it next year. Better camera isn't worth losing 3D Touch.Correct. Legally it's a 0% interest loan over 24 months. It's the retail price of the phone plus AppleCare+, divided by 24, paid every month. I will be paying $60.33 a month for the 11 Pro Max 256GB (which is actually what I was paying for my XS 256GB because I opted for Theft & Loss AppleCare which I didn't do this time). After 12 payments you give that phone back and hop again on the new one, monthly price to be determined based on what model you pick and all that.
I like the plan a lot, tbh, because it's essentially a guaranteed 50% return every year, plus niceties like priority preordering. And if a new phone comes out and you don't care about it you can just keep on making payments and after all 24 the phone is yours, no harm no foul.
Some things to note:
1) You need to have one of the four major carriers (regular plan, not prepaid) to do it. No smaller carriers or pay-as-you-go
2) Needs a debit or credit card because it will run a credit check. The first time you start it's a hard check, any upgrades are just soft checks. I've been doing this since the 6S and I haven't had a hard check from this since that model.
3) You get to pick your level of AppleCare, regular or theft and loss. This is required as part of the program. You can call in and cancel it but then you give up your yearly upgrade.
4) Any phone trade in you have will NOT lower the monthly payments. Whatever the website says, that's what you'll pay. Phone trade ins will just either give you a refund on your card (not currently doable online, in-store only) or a gift card.
5) Minimum term is six months. After six months have passed you can either pay up to 12 months and get an early early upgrade or pay the whole thing off, but no advance payments for six months.
6) If you use an Apple Card even though the charge isn't coming from Apple (it comes from the partner bank, CitizensOne) it still counts for 3% cash back.
7) The phones are 100% unlocked.
8) if your phone is broken when you go to upgrade you just pay the AppleCare deductible, you don't have to actually get the phone fixed. Like that as a time-saver.
9) because upgrades are never 100% one year after the previous model, when you upgrade any payment you made in the last month gets prorated and refunded to you. So you're not like paying for a month and then immediately trading it in and paying AGAIN for the new phone
That's pretty much it. There's also a program called Apple iPhone Payments which is the same thing except no required AppleCare (it's optional), no yearly upgrade (24 months required to pay off), and whatever you trade in WILL lower the monthly payment.
It sucks apple services aren't. I want my news app...

It's not taking advantage. The pound is just not so much worth currently.UK shafted again with a £49 price hike on the pros in comparison to last years model.
I'm sure the price has stayed the same in € markets and USA
Then again, who can blame them. Take advantage of the chaos here.
Oh All those uneducated hater that never saw the screen in person. The RGB IPS Display is totally fine. It's a good screen. A 1080p OLED isn't crispier because of the different Subpixel matrix.All those apple shills defending a sub 1080p phone in 2019 are insanse. How can you seriously justify paying so much money for a phone with such a bad screen?
I lke this dsign, the mate finish is cool and lenses seem just as intimidating as high tech. No doubt this iPhone will make beautiful pictures and develop my creativity. My only concern is wether I need a case to protect lenses or not.Yep because 1080p on a 6 inch screen is really doing much for you.
Remember when we were looking at these mockups / dummies and thought "omg, what's Apple thinking?!"
And now, the actual iPhone 11 Pro models actually look kind of fine?
Moving the Apple logo further down and doing the "two-tone" thing with glossy vs matte glass really helped.
I don't know why you are thinking that way.I see lots of people saying to "wait for the 12 next year." I understand this is the third year in a row of this general X style model, but I fully expect next year to be an 11s / 11s Pro / 11s Pro Max. Apple is drip feeding updates to the phone and I don't expect anything different next year. I hope I'm wrong but I'd bet the 12 will be a September 2021 release.

What crazy things is the S10+ doing? That's what I don't understand, people keep saying that Apple is just making small changes every year, what big changes has Samsung made this year compared to last?
Practically an edge-to-edge display, in-screen fingerprint scanner, ultrawide/telephoto cameras, optional 5g, reverse wireless charging.
Design wise, at least it looks and feels different from the previous year too. The 11s all look the Xs more or less. And still no USB C. The Apple that created the iPhone 4/6 seems to be in the past.
I'll take the notch and Face ID over an in screen fingerprint reader any day.Practically an edge-to-edge display, in-screen fingerprint scanner, ultrawide/telephoto cameras, optional 5g, reverse wireless charging.

Looks like we're getting 6GB RAM this year.
Xiaomi MiI don't know why you are thinking that way.
Apple has already said that every 3 years is their new cycle for massive revamps. They started this with the X as it was 3 years after the iPhone 6/6 Plus which was the major revamp prior to the X.
Likewise, you are basing it off of the naming structure which makes no sense because they already broke this naming structure with the start of the X (this current generation) when they went from an iPhone 7 to the iPhone 8 and X and completely skipped the "7s"
You do realize that the sub 1080p phone you are bashing is cheaper than all the other phones you are trying to compare it to (Samsung Galaxy 10s, Pixel 3s). The OnePlus 7 Pro is the only one that is cheaper by $30 with a 1440p screen but has other sacrifices to make it a super affordable phone.
