Yay, 15 Pro in da blue for Friday

Congrats, Christian!

Oddly one of the phones I ordered today doesn't show it will auto-register with my phone carrier, but the other phone does.

The orders went through, but the first phone I ordered did error out in an odd way while I was completing it (though I got the email verification of the order). And this is the phone not showing the carrier information.

I guess I'll find out next Friday! As long as the phone arrives, I can work it out with my carrier.

@ulkesh What does auto-registering do? Isn't activating a SIM pretty straightforward nowadays?

@christianselig Yeah, it is. It's just odd that my wife's phone (the one that worked fine) is showing it, but my daughter's phone (the one that errored oddly, but still went through) isn't.

Auto-registering basically makes it so the setup process of the device automatically transfers the phone number to the new device. I'm not sure that will occur with my daughter's phone this time, so we'll just have to do it after the fact, most likely (and worst case, go to my carrier's store to handle it).
