This card is under 5/24. You can override 5/24 by having an in-branch (only! online prequalification does NOT override 5/24) pre-approval, or by already being Chase Private Client (as in you see the "Chase Private Client" text on the login screen of the Chase mobile app.)
Landing page with bonus offer (100,000 UR after spending $4,000 in 90 days) is now live:

Application page: https://applynow.chase.com/FlexAppWe...L3P&PROMO=DF01
100,000 UR points is worth $1,000 as statement credit, $1,500 when used for travel through the Chase portal, or potentially more if transferred to a partner.

The purchases made that you receive the $300 travel credit (or $85/$100 trusted traveler program credits) for do count towards the minimum spend, but the annual fee does not.
The card is made of the same material as the CSP, and is being shipped UPS Next Day Air Saver to everyone after production (currently (8/26) appears to have about a 3-day delay after approval before shipping.)

New Chase Sapphire Reserve Card [Pre-release speculation]

This is my challenge. As we know everyone should carry an Ink, a Freedom, a Freedom Unlimited and a CSP, or CSR and use the highest bonus card on each purchase (unless wanting to avoid a foreign transaction fee, or have some of the better insurance benefits kick in.)
Mrs. HighOPS will carry any one card I prefer, but not multiple cards. So, the Freedom Unlimited would probably earn the most points over a year. But, it doesn't have the insurance benefits on travel and high priced items.
The $75 is probably enough to have me not get the AU card given all the constraints- especially since Mrs. HighOPS is a good sport, knows I like to maximize URP, and so lets me pay when we are together.
[Shrug]. While I am not optimistic, maybe there will be an AU bonus that will make it an easy decision year 1.

So if you don't care about the Priority Pass (especially since it has no guests), and consider it net of travel credit, this is basically just a CSP with a ~50% higher annual fee and ~50% higher earn on dining/travel, right?

...and $100 Global Entry credit every 4 years. Which I don't really care about anyway because I get that through my Amex Plat. But I'm signing up anyway for the 3x points on travel/dining.

I only really care about the 100k sign up points and the $300 travel credit as being worth anything so it's $95 v. $150 annual fee difference for me which won't be a big deal if the card offered better benefits.
The 3x travel and restaurant bonus is nice, but I already get 2x respectively from the CSP which I normally don't use anyway because use my Amex PRG for flights (3x), gas and groceries (2x) and restaurants (2x).
The only reason I even keep my CSP is because I need a Visa card where Amex isn't accepted (i.e., Costco) and when I rent a car in the US (primary insurance).

It doesn't seem unreasonable to guess/assume that the Reserve would offer the same level of PP membership (w 2 guests) as the Citi Prestige, since the two cards will likely be oft compared.

I have Chase UA, Ink and Marriott. Over time I have rolled a lot of credit into those cards. Think I should reduce some to increase chances of approval?
Credit score ample, and last CC applied for Jan of this year. I can't wait to replace my prestige.

Who said the CSR priority Pass does not cover 2 guests? Did you make it up?

I haven't seen any credible evidence anywhere as to the specifics of the guest policy on the CSR's Priority Pass. And I've been paying a lot of attention to all the buzz/rumors on this card since getting approved on Monday

I'm certainly a 5/24 person and was rejected for a united card offer in the spring. Think the better strategy is to just go for it on 8/21 or wait for data points?
