Other 2022 iPhone 14/Plus/Pro/Pro Max/ US Pre-Orders, Orders, and Delivery Status Thread

I would call Apple for this and have them fix it online or try contacting them via app.

Can't even get a hold of them right now, unfortunately.

 

[happy orchard]

I wish I could. Not allowed to call in, no time off, and can't be late to work even by 1 minute. Still on probation. 1 more months left.

Good luck!

Its a hold, card will be charged when phone ships

Apple Card:
I already got charged yesterday before I completed the purchase today.

 

[MinimeJer05]

Can’t get ahold of Apple via chat or phone to figure out why my Apple Card isn’t charging. Wondering how long I have to get this sorted before I miss release day delivery?

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

I may have missed it and I apologize. What's the story behind the Postal Service? Is that an error? Someone fill me in, please.

Do you plan to shoot in ProRaw all the time? Normal photos are 48MP downsampled to 12MP.

I got the 512GB too, just in case.

No, I doubt it. I was curious if it downsampled so that is probably good for my storage. I haven’t done much research I normally just upgrade every year because I like to have the latest and greatest.

You cannot right now in same boat. Calls are busy and unable to answer accordingly to computer you get, chats tell me they are too busy, but folks who have gotten through to make changes were told it might take 24 hours before you can get in and change the incorrect info like old cards. I logged in to the web server store site and found sure enough the old card was still there it never got updated/populated from update I did 2 days ago in apple store app on my iphone. So I corrected it there but obviously with slammed order servers that info is not getting back . I am hoping in end it will see I changed it via that method rather than trying to correct through order as my email suggests below. We shall see

I'm debating...do I need new Airpods? I have the current Airpods Pro. I like them but I don't use them as much as I should for the money. I really want the new charging case though. Mine doesn't charge with the Watch charger and I would like that.

I would have been in the market for these! But I had that issue with the popping sound while walking when anc or transparency mode was on and ended up getting both right and left pods replaced free about 6 weeks ago. Hmmm do I need a second set? 😝

Woo hoo! Are you already saving up for iPhone 15 next year?

Yup. I’m going to save biweekly since I get paid biweekly. Payment #2 is coming on the 16th.

And BOOM, looks like my purchase is quite...successful, to the point of seeing my bank account feeling a twinge bit lighter than usual...

Those who ordered the 128 versions would have struggled to get 16/09 due to it being the most popular. The 256/512 will have quite easily got 16/09 unless they were being just a too slow.

I know this as out of 4 phones, and only the 128 slipped to 29/09, the rest will arrive 16/09.

Air Quality has got worse. Not sure what the 500 means but it looks bad.

Thanks for the info!

Did anyone else did not get the September 16 launch day delivery??

I launched the Apple Store app on my iPhone about 5:55 to the “We can’t wait either” message. As I waited, I began to think “**** did I made a mistake with my pre-approved 14 Pro 256? That 48MP lens is gonna yield massive files. I wonder how hard it will be to switch to a 512? Can I switch my pre-approved configuration? Will that time spent switching see me miss the 9/16 window? Does it matter?”

At 6, the message changed to “Almost there” and it hung there for ~30 seconds - felt like 3 minutes. Antsy, I closed the app, relaunched, and I don’t know if that reload did the trick, or if it was just lucky timing, but the device I had pre-approved the day before, popped up, ready to order. I quickly scanned the page to confirm all was as expected - hopping there was a big “update your order” button. And while not a big button, there was a fairly hard to read, blue text on black background (seriously, Night Shift yields some usability clusters - one of which is illegible little blue text on black), that read something to the effect of “want to change your order?” I hovered there a few seconds, not wanting to jack up my order and miss the 9/16 date. But I also didn’t want a 256. So I touched the link and it opened my pre-approved 256, and there were big buttons to upgrade storage. I touched “512,” then “OK,” then maybe two more taps and my updated pre-order was sent. Delivery date: 9/16.

Minus some of the last second scramble to update storage, my pre-order experience was the smoothest to date. They’re getting even better at taking my money.

All 3 due to arrive 9/16! Let's go!

14 Pro 256 GB
14 Pro Max 256 GB

To Everyone:

Now it may be possible they’re using UPS Surepost which is delivered by Post Office, which can be upgraded to Regular UPS. Keep that in mind. I chose Express shipping but my date is 9/27-9/30. I expect a push up.

I didn't think about that.

 

[rumz]

Went super smooth!! Got my order in at 8:01. Let’s start the journey

ordered the same phone 😊 last year I agonized for weeks over whether to get the Max or not (Had been buying the biggest size available for years). Nice to not have that problem this year 😂

agreed, though— ordered wit the app 15 minutes ago and it was as smooth as can be.

 

[gaedfly]

Anyone just got a charge from Apple? I paid using Apple Pay and they just put the money on hold now.

Yes, they charged my card but not for the full tax and 1st month.

 

[JFK1979]

Airpods pro 2 still September 23rd delivery/pick up 😂

Congratulations on the launch delivery date. So excited and happy for you.

I’m a terrible influence but I’m going to say yes you do 😈

Order Status changed to Processing. Let's goo. Life is all. All is well over here!!!

No one needs AirPods lol. I have the original Pros and there's enough improvements for me to get the new ones.

 

[lazyrighteye]

That's a hard question to answer here. Might want to start a new thread later with a poll. But i'm on iUP and my Apple card is on file. Store didn't open for me until 8:06 ET but was the easiest checkout I've ever had and confirmed delivery for 9/16 for the 256gb Deep Purple iPhone Pro.

I too am iUP and also found this year’s experience the smoothest to date.
