256gb Silver 17 Pro pre pre ordered (lol) along with a Techwoven case (arriving this Friday).

More ram too. It’s 12 in pro and 8 in the standard. Though that probably won’t matter to most.
I think the rumour this year was that they'd all have 12GB RAM? Hopefully that comes out over the next day or two, would help cement the regular 17 as a solid choice.


EDIT: it has been confirmed via Xcode that the base 17 is indeed still 8GB, with the rest bumped to 12GB.

I like the orange pro, but the difference of £300 between a 256gb pro and a 256gb regular 17 is mad considering the battery life is nearly the same and you get 1 extra core plus a few camera bits...
This is my thinking.

I would miss the telephoto lens the most but is it worth £300 more to me really? I dont think so.
 
I was tempted to get a pro max this time round but it looks to be another pretty lack lustre uplift. I think I'll wait for reviews before I decide. Shame no black in the pro range too. Surely that's been a main seller for them in previous generations
 
Is there generally any good trade in offers or discounts available via bluelight, perks at work or similar? I've only owned Samsung or Google phones before, so never purchased an iPhone
 
I purchased a second hand 13 pro max earlier in the year to just dip my toe into Apple and the iPhone. Mainly because the car I purchased had wireless Apple Car Play only and being an Android user for years, was faced with either mounting my Pixel on the dashboard or, jump into Apple ecosystem for the lower hassle, wire free option.

Always told myself it would be a stop gap but I'm kind of tempted to just get a new battery fitted from Apple (mines at 85%) or at most, keep my eyes peeled for a 15 Pro Max Deal. The 13 Pro Max is not struggling with anything and the only thing tempting me to change is for some of the AI functionality.
 
I’m inclined to go blue pro max how did people find going from the pro to the max?
 
Just got my iPhone Air case, damn that’s a thin boy.

I am ready for my pre-order tomorrow.
