Thanks to Community Member sbessire for sharing this deal.
Note: Your Redemption Bonus will vary from 10% to 50% depending on the type of Chase card you have. Your credit card will be charged the full remaining dollar amount over your points redemption; for example, if you choose to buy Apple merchandise at $120 at $1.50 redemption value (50% bonus), and you use 4,000 points ($40 worth of points w/ 50% bonus = $60), your credit card would be billed for the remaining $60.
It's back! Limited Time Offer!
Your points are worth 10%-50% more
Until 11/30/23 or while supplies last, your Chase points are worth more when you redeem for any product on the Apple® Ultimate Rewards® Store.*
Chase Sapphire Preferred is 25% more.
Chase Freedom Unlimited is 10% more.
The $1199 iPhone Prom Max is 79,900 points (plus tax if applicable) if you have the Reserve (so retail * 66.7 points). Effectively 1/3 off at a penny per point.
If you have a card with a $99 ish annual fee, I suspect you get 25% extra (so retail * 80 points). Effectively 20% off at a penny per point.
If you have a no-annual-fee card, you likely get 10% extra (so retail * 91 points). About 9% off at a penny per point.

But what if you aren't traveling much and need a new iPhone? Not everyone is looking for a 4 cent pp redemption on a round trip business class flight to Zimbabwe. Why not buy airline gift cards when they go on sale? (Like the recent Southwest cards at Costco).
Also worth noting you get extended warranty and purchase protection when you pay with points (you don't when you pay with gift cards).
You are really better off buying apple gift cards when they have promos or Amex offers to buy Apple giftcards for 20% to 25% off and using the UR points for travel to maximize the value.
I can get an iphone 15 pro for 66,600 points ($660 cash value points)

Great! I received shipped email confirmation 256 GB Titanium Pro Max from order placed on 11/02.
After this, what's the next step for activation with T-Mobile? Make sure I have the latest back-up from my IPhone 12 Pro Max, my guess the IPhone 15 will come with a new SIM card, activate this SIM card with carrier, do a backup restore and that's it? Hopefully I can do all this without going to a T-Mobile store.
Also, any suggestions of what's the best value I can get for my old iPhone 12 Pro Max? Perhaps a Best Buy Trade-in gift card ?
I tried to use this but the discount doesnt make sense. Says 25% more but it doesnt seem to work out for 25% can someone explain whats going on? I had iphone 15 pro max in my cart 1199.00
I"tems
95,920 Points or $1,199.00
Taxes
5,755 Points or $71.94
Total
101,675 Points or $1,270.94"
Edit: nevermind it makes sense, I was thinking if I take 25% I would get the points amount but its your points are worth 25% more which isnt the same thing....
Its really 20% off if you are trying to use my logic of a discount
Received 1 of the 2 blue Ti 256GB Pro Max's today...the other spent a few days with the label printed but not shipped and should be here tomorrow...ordered minutes before making OP.
Figured I would try to help with my details as well. Does not sound fair for some folks that ordered super early and are still waiting on shipment.
Ordered iPhone 15 Pro 128G Black on 11/24
Online tracking after purchase said would be shipped around 12/4
Shipped today via UPS, scheduled to be delivered tomorrow

I think it depended more on what you ordered.
The natural Ti and the larger capacity pro maxes shipped pretty quickly.
I had the same thing happen to me. It was supposed to be delivered a week ago. Called FedEx, and they are going to "trace" the package. Mine is definitely gone in the wind. Not sure what the packaging says on it but amazing how so many of these get "lost" right before delivery.
Finally got it reshipped today after it was originally supposed to be delivered on 11/11. The Chase Apple reseller CSR was friendly -- spoke to them like 6 times -- but kept just telling me that it was being investigated. We shall see if the second package does any better than the first.
I ordered an Apple Watch for my mother with ultimate rewards bonus and it showed shipped back in November and in the hands of Fedex per their tracking. I called numerous times and was told that the shipment was lost and that a new one would be sent. Fast forward to when Apple stopped shipping the iwatch due to the intellectual property issue with the oxygen saturation sensor and I was told the order was cancelled and points were refunded. I thought oh well.
Last week, the watch showed up on my mom's doorstep. I checked the rewards and they did take the points out. That was the longest 5 month wait.

Sell your old phone on FBM or eBay.

Look like once a year?
