Still debating between the regular 12 and the pro. Thinking I may go with the pro because it starts with 128gb and I'm trading in my old iphone X, which makes the price a lot more palatable. What are yall thinking?

Me too. So basically the extra $250 is for the 3rd lens on the camera right?

AT&T has a great trade in promo right now. As long as your phone is worth $95 you can upgrade and get $800 towards any phone

The online system is jacked up. They give you a telephone number to call to place pre-order. I call it and wait on hold for 40 minutes only to be told I can’t pre-order over the phone. Never change AT&T, never change

I'm going with the 12 mini from my 11 pro

There is just no reason for me to justify needing the pro with the upgraded OLED in the 12 now, plus I want the smaller phone.

I have a 256gb now and because I used icloud storage I have under 80GB on my phone, I'm gonna step down to the 128gb for 750 and should be able to get 600-700 easy for my 11 pro.

I'm not seeing a compelling reason to switch from my X just yet.

So with AT&T I can trade in my iPhone X and get $800 credit towards the 12 pro. Stupid not to upgrade

So how does the $800 discount work? Credit on account or taken off the phone?

Anyone know how long the $800 trade in credit with AT&T will be available? I’m pretty sure they check your credit and I’m in the proctor closing on a house so I can’t have any hits on my report until we close.

I've avoided being on the AT&T financial plans for several years now but my wife has the iPhone XR and wanted to upgrade. We only paid $700 for it and AT&T is offering $800 trade-in value on it so I guess we'll be locked in for 24 months. That is hard to pass on.

ETA

If ATT runs a credit check it's a soft one. I don't think they do.

I still disagree with Apple’s decision not to include the wall brick with the iPhone 12. Simply for the fact that, unless you had an iPhone 11 (and most people don’t buy every single generation of iPhone), you probably don’t have the USB-C brick yet. Thus, most people will have to go buy one.

So I had been holding out on getting a new phone until these new iPhones came out and my old one was already paid off. Well right before Delta hit my touch screen stopped working in my iPhone 8. I was able to borrow an unused phone until I get my new one but was bummed about losing the trade in value.

Well I got home today and plugged the old one in just to see what would happen and everything is working fine. I had tried every reset I could find to make it work but I guess draining the battery for a while did something for it.

I went from $50 trade in to $800!

I’m pretty pumped. Friday can’t get here fast enough.

I want the mini.

I’m over having a big arse phone. Most of the time I just need the basics and a good camera.
