You should definitely be able to play with the display models, but their stock for purchase is going to be extremely limited.

Looking at this sketchy ass site https://iphonechecker.herokuapp.com/ for example, the stores near me had only 512GB Blue versions in stock and now I'm not seeing any stock within 100 miles of me.

yea I was using the display models. It’s not a bad phone but nothing convinces me to upgrade yet. I’m thinking next year will be the one. Especially considering XS max at the bottom of eligible phones for upgrade this year ha.

yea those third party sites aren’t reliable. The store I went to had a line out the wazoo just for pickup orders. A rep said they had no phones for people to buy.

A few years ago (around the time of the XS) iStockNow was a good site to check availability. I remember using that to get my 8, my XS, and I think my AirPods. But that site died a while back.

You’re probably good with the XS still if it is working for you. Save your money.
