Some context for why she is buying the new iPhone.
Her current iPhone's lower half touch screen is broken, since when she tries to type certain letters it reacts in places where she did not touch making it very difficult for her to use her phone, she would have bought a new one sooner if it weren't for the fact that the nousagi told her that the newest one is coming out shorty. Hearing that she decided to wait for it and today is the day reservations open.

>Pre iPhone 13 pre-order war(21:20)
She gets 11th place on her last race but deems it appropriate since it is 5 minutes before the reservations open. She does her ending and when she comes back she says that today is a special case and that because of the power of iPhone she has resurrected, and that this is now an iPhone reservation stream.
As she opens the webpage she sees all the different models you can choose from and wonders which one she'll go for once the reservations open. Pekora asks the chat that when they upgrade to a newer model do they ask a store to handle all the data transfer and the like for them, because in Pekora's case she wants a new thing to be "truly new" with almost nothing in it, only those things that are truly important does she transfer over, so she does it herself. Sure things like memories and such is fine but don't you have that kind of feeling of not wanting to transfer over too much?

She remembers that because she was so excited about the new iPhone she even made a thumbnail for a stream idea which would just be to reserve an iPhone 13. Although she made it, she thought to herself she won't do a stream just for this and instead decided on some Mario Kart to pass time and then reserve the phone. She deliberates on what she'll pick thinking about the colors saying that the usual cute colors are there like pink-like, but that there is blue, red, black, and white, and so on as well. Someone from chat begs her to tell them which color she'll pick and she smugly says that she won't.*
She suddenly asks what is the difference between the Pro and the Pro Max, before noticing that the Pro Max looks very large, even when compared to the regular model it looks huge, making her feel like the Max and the Pro won't even be able to fit in her pocket being this large. She finds an image that lines all the models up and looking at that she feels the Pro Max looks heavy and thinks that wouldn't work for her and since she has bought a Pro model before she knows roughly how that one would feel.

*This was asked earlier on as well and she said that they'll pick the same color as her and what if it were to run out of stock making her unable to reserve it? She wouldn't want that so she won't tell them. The chat was being honest saying they want to get matching colors with her.

>iPhone 13 pre-order time(25:40)
While discussing various stuff like the pricing being enough to buy a computer, how one of the colors are similar to her color pattern, and such, she notices that the time is getting close, so she tells everyone to not use the same place that she is using to reserve their iPhone and instead let her have priority, and that for those who are going to reserve one, they should do it after her stream is over. She worries about the possibility of the site lagging so much she won't be able to order it, but thinks to herself that surely something like the server going down won't happen right.
She notices that there is also the Mini model but says that she also watches movies and such on her phone so a too small screen wouldn't be convenient for her. She gets the question if she won't buy an iPad and she says that she likely won't considering she has a MacBook, although her Mac is currently broken and that she has to get that fixed.

Once the reservations open she tries to order one but after numerous attempts battling the lagging website, getting errors, pleading to the chat to stop accessing the webpage since she told them that her phone is broken didn't she, so let her have priority, frustrated desk slams, tongue clicking, and desperation, she reads someone being surprised at her wanting the new iPhone this much and she says it isn't particularly for that reason but rather because her current phone is broken that she is being desperate, had her phone not been broken she wouldn't have cared.
The chat tells her that in that case isn't the 12 just fine and she tells them to shut up and says that they don't get it, because if you are going to buy a new phone then buying the new one is definitely the right way.
Her desperation grows as it continues to fail and the chat teases her further by saying she might have been blacklisted with her responding that she hasn't done anything wrong to deserve it and that is there no justice in this world that lets those like her who are currently troubled by a broken phone to be allowed to pre-order the new one. Eventually she says that once the clock hits 10 minutes past and it still doesn't work she'll draw up the three phone cases she is interested in and asks for the chat to pick one for her.

>The three phone cases(40:00)
She tries one last time to access the page and it fails, prompting her to say she no longer cares and will order it later. She opens paint and starts drawing the cases she is interested in, the first one being a case that has lots of sushi-shaped cats on it. The second one having The Big Dipper asterism, stars, moons, and the like in a stylish fashion. The third one being similar to the second one in that it is also a case with constellations and generally a starry sky look. She gets asked if there aren't one with rabbits or carrots on it and she says she looked but couldn't find one, not even one with carrots.

>Pre-order revenge, Apple Store edition.(44:15)
Someone tells her that you should be able to access the page now and she immediately goes for it and it seems that she can. But as she continues she seemingly can't get all the way whereupon she complains and wonders how she can make it work while calling the chat liars for tricking her. The chat suggests using the App to purchase the phone and she wonders exactly which App they are talking about since the store seems to be very packed. They clarify it as just from the regular Apple store app and she is a bit unsure about it since she has only bought from a phone carrier site before, rather than the official one, and asks if she'll get the phone right away purchasing from the app? They say you can order it to your home just like normal and she likes that and decides to go for it. The chat is realizes why she had troubles before now that they know she wasn't ordering from the official page.
She excitedly opens the app and asks the chat to teach her how to order the phone from there, it is the AppStore right? The chat corrects her saying it is the Apple store app not the AppStore. She gets confused and says there is no app in her phone called "Apple Store" until she finds it a few seconds later. The app requires an update however and she asks how does she update it, until someone from chat says she can just access the official webpage instead to which she does.
She seems to be having better luck using the official site since despite it being laggy it still goes through, and she proudly states that she'll never buy from a carrier site again and will use the official one from now on. She suddenly notices that she won't get the phone until October if she chooses delivery and she really doesn't want that, but then she wonders if it'll be earlier if she chooses to pick it up instead and it seems she can to her great delight.

She gets all the way to entering her details as she enters her name, and her magic credit card's information. The chat scolds her for using her mother's card and she snaps back saying it is her own card. The site still seems to be quite laggy as it thinks for a long time but unfortunately her purchase gets rejected stating that her pick-up date isn't possible. She despairs at the possibility of having to fill in all that information again and asks for how long will this pain persist.
After much pain, rejections, and some stream lagging she finally gets her order through which ended up being an iPhone 13 Pro Sierra Blue. With this she happily ends the stream saying she has to prepare for the Kiara collab coming up at 22JST.
