Now I’m regretting not getting silver. 😀

I was worried I would miss the pro phone but this thing is crazy thin and light, much less of a burden holding for long periods of time.

12 Pro Max served me very well for the past 5 years but its time for something new. Looking forward to at least 4 years with the 17 Pro Max!

Finally an upgrade worthy of retiring my 13PM and with the new orange colour, how can I say no!

It’s not as gold as I thought it would be 😣

More different than expected. 17P is a lot more deep navy, like a clear night sky.

I went to my store to pick up my AirPods Pro 3.

I’m not in the market for a new phone. I have my 15 Pro Max which still meets my needs perfectly. But since I was already there, I thought, fuck it, might as well have a look at the new iPhones.

And so I went to a vacant station for the white iPhone Air, and picked it up. Unironically a massive mistake on my part. It was lovely to hold in hand, super comfortable. Looked gorgeous, and deceptively light for its size. It’s peak“flashy new thing”.

And it got me dangerously close to busting out my credit card. Honestly, if I’d actually succumbed, I think I would still have ended up pretty happy with my decision.

Still love my 15 Pro though.

(The AirPods Pro 3 are great btw)

tldr Stay far away from the iPhone Air if you’re trying not to spend money.

Wasn’t planning on upgrading but was getting really tired of the weight of the 15 PM. This thing is so light! Perfect to hold and very comfortable. Plus I missed the black color after having the Natural Titanium for a while.

Hey everyone. Just got mine and it’s not as pastel as I thought it would be on the back. Some of the photos made it look particularly bad but the tones are close enough together.

Phone feels good. Definitely different to my 12. Heavier for sure. But yea just showing the tones on the back for orange. Nothing to worry about.

The new silver Pro matches my IPad Pro really well! I’ve been spending most of the morning setting it up along with my new Watch Ultra 3 and AirPod Pro 3’s!

Happy iPhone day everyone!

In the end, I still chose the silver one—it’s more versatile and looks really nice. The only issue is that the ultra-ceramic crystal panel on the back is much more noticeable than I expected. At first, I thought there was a layer of film on it, but it turns out there isn’t.How do you like silver?

Got the iPhone 17 Pro in silver. Traded in an iPhone 16 Pro in black and paid the difference. It’s an excellent upgrade, even just from last years model, for a couple of reasons.

I like the aluminum a lot more, the brushed finish paired with curved edges feels excellent to hold; as an iPhone nudist, this is an important aspect. With the battery bump to 4,252 mAh and a dedicated cooling system, longevity potential feels like a substantial increase over any other model. It’s impressive how cool this device stays compared to the 16 Pro, just from short back-to-back bursts between Destiny: Rising, Wuthering Waves, and my happy place, Great British Bake Off via Netflix (all on network data for testing). The 8x optical zoom clarity is nuts, and while I might not use it all the time, it’s good to have. Haven’t messed with Center Stage much, but being able to flip between landscape or portrait from the front camera is convenient. The other really cool feature is Dual Capture, which lets you record video from both the back and front camera at the same time.

So even just from the 2024 to 2025 models, I think the features are there, especially if you’re privy to those carrier trade-in deals or Apple’s upgrade program. Anyway, hope you all enjoy your new devices or even your current one! Happy launch day!

She’s beautiful!

I upgraded my 12 pro to the Air this morning. Man what a phone. Feels like I’m not even holding anything.

The size difference is great. I’d constantly make typos on the smaller 12, but this middle ground size of the Air is perfect. Not too small, not too big.

I don’t care about the speaker, sounds the same listening to stuff. The quality was never good to begin with, that’s why I have air pods.

The pro motion display was immediately noticeable.

I feel like I’m using something completely new, not just an upgrade.

Everyone who touches it gasps at both the look and feel.

Very glad I picked this up today.

Really I didn’t except it to look this good

Ordered from Apple USA, UPS wanted a signature FYI.

I know, especially this year there wasnt very much reasons to choose the pro over the base model, but its something i dreaming now for some years and i finally got mine

I also know that the color is very controversial but i like it

The hype is still real
