Apple's stock jumps after T-Mobile sees record preorders iPhone 7 - MarketWatch

Apple's stock jumps after T-Mobile sees record preorders iPhone 7

Sept 13, 2016

Shares of Apple Inc. surged 1.1% in premarket trade Tuesday, after T-Mobile U.S. Inc. said preorders for Apple's iPhone 7 were the highest in the wireless carrier's history. T-Mobile said from Friday through Monday, preorders were nearly four times the preorders for the previous most popular iPhone.

Apple said last week that it would no longer release first-weekend preorder sales data, so T-Mobile's data gives investors a first look into demand. "Strength in T-Mobile's iPhone 7 preorders can be extrapolated to all the carriers world wide," said analyst Trip Chowdhry at Global Equities Research.

Ended up calling in and requesting an iPhone 7 plus Jet black 128GB. They are supposed to call me tomorrow with an update. Hopefully they come through!

The stock is basically back up where it was right before the keynote...which then ALWAYS drops as people sell their shares.

Downloading iOS10 right now...

Careful. Some people reporting that iOS 10 is bricking their iPhones.

Oh, Apple. Sticking with 9.3.5 for now.

Apple Releases iOS 10 With Redesigned Lock Screen, New Messages Features, Third-Party Siri, and More | MacRumors Forums

Is this iOS 10.01 going to be like iOS 8.0.1 ?

Installed just fine for me.

I really like isOS10. Nice little subtle changes make it feel really fresh. And all the more major changes are really nice.

It's gonna take a while for me to stop swiping to unlock. But other than that, everything is fine by me. I think the "new" animations make my 6 feel a bit faster that it has been on 9.3.5. Now I'm just patiently waiting for watchOS 3 to download

Same here. Going to keep iOS9 until the new phone comes in. Expected ship date is between Sept 16-23, hopefully it doesn't get pushed back.

Strange question. I had a couple of messages from Apple at 3 in the morning, each giving me a one-time passcode.

Someone trying to hack me or something?

iPhone 7 Plus Teardown Confirms Longer-Lasting 2,900 mAh Battery - Mac Rumors

BOTH lenses are stabilized.

I swear...Ming Kuo might have a great track record from whomever at apple he is blowing...but in the end he is still an ANALyst and pulling guessing out of his ass.

Just had a look, people on ifixit and macrumors are doubting the claim of OIS

I guess time will tell. Most people on macrumors are all skeptical sad fucks in their mom's basements anyway.

They could announce that mac devices will all print free money, and they would find something to whine about.

IFixit says no OIS on the telephoto. They say an xray shows 4 magnets around one of the camera lenses which they believe is used for OIS but no magnets around the other

Maybe they couldn't have the magnets that close to each other without screwing the OIS system up or building something to block the magnetic interference

Jesus christ, even if the plus doesn't have OIS, its not the end of the world, you know, unless you have parkinsons.

Stop making mountains out of molehills.
