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

[Shh]

Thank you for this. I ordered mine just now.

These are amazing. You just place it down on the phone and the installation frame holds it perfectly in place. Then you rub it into the screen where it says and then it’s perfectly aligned when you peel the cover off. I always go with the Spigen case and screen protectors. I would have canceled the Mag Safe case but I was afraid of screwing up my iPhone order. 😩

I feel all the orders being delivered by the Postal Service have a delivery date of 9/23 at the earliest. Does anyone have the Postal Service as the carrier and a delivery date of 9/16?

Yeah my iPhone 14 pro max 256gb deep purple is coming via usps from apple it’s financed through T-Mobile I am trading in my 13 pro max but my estimated delivery date is October 10th / 17th it is what is but happy the taxes were only around $42 as opposed to going through T-Mobile app which the taxes were $99 plus and apple gave instant credit to be determined by the condition of my 13 pro max which is in great shape where as T-Mobile does the bill credit over 24 months so I will only owe like $479 after my phone trade in is processed not bad sorry for rambling on have a blessed day

What is "the Postal Service"? Could be ANY carrier that delivers packages.

That's not USPS which is United States Postal Service.

I've never heard anyone refer to UPS or FedEx as a "postal service." In the U.S., postal service = USPS.

My September 23rd order just went to preparing to ship.

Maybe have a look at it in-store. The blue is very subtle. But it's definitely there. Perhaps a bluish-black is a better description than a blackish-blue.

I, like you, will never understand the neurosis that is Apple and black/grey/graphite/midnight. 😀

1. Thank you for the more detailed description. You're right; I need to wait to decide. Fortunately, the case is somehow getting delivered next week (instead of pick-up on Friday--don't ask, not worth the explanation.) So I'll get a chance to check it out inside and outside without combining that with the excitement of new phone. So yes, we will try to be open-minded.

2. Thank you for also noticing this black/grey/graphite/midnight proclivity!

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 only use mine to talk on the phone at work. I don’t touch them outside of work, so I’ve decided to not get new AirPods until these stop working.

Yes, Postal Service is USPS … or the indie band.

Was l the only silly one who paid $8 for express delivery. It showed launch delivery if I did otherwise it was a few days out (can’t remember the exact day lol). After suffering through the T-Mobile disaster I jumped on the launch day option.

Umber wallet showed up as well as the forest green case. Now just waiting on my 128 gig black pro max

Very nice combo

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

Yay!!! You preordered this year. I settled on the Deep Purple 512GB Pro Max. I also have a delivery date of 9/16.

We are not talking about what happens after. Ordering through Apple wouldn't change what happens after anyway. What you are saying is Un related to ordering the phone.

It matters because it is the overall experience. Being an Apple user, I’m not sure why you didn’t recognize that when I expounded upon the original point made.

Ordering through Apple is the better overall experience, in my experience.

I like to use two iPhones. Especially during vacations. Unlimited battery life and never have to worry about charging.

I'd rather bring a charger that costs about 5% of what another phones costs. But I must be unique.

I always get the Spigen. Easy to install and comes with 2. I always end up needing two and i will chip the outer edges with time.

Spigen Tempered Glass Screen Protector [GlasTR EZ FIT] designed for iPhone 14 Pro Max [Case Friendly] - Sensor Protection / 2 Pack

Spigen Glass TR iPhone 14 Pro Max 2 pcs.

Yes, Spigen makes the best!
Hope they make one for my 14 Plus I just bought ??

BTW:
I just got my new 2022 Ford F150 EV truck (Lightning) and bought the Spigen protector and it has been awesome - no more fingerprints on the 15.5" screen!

 

[happy orchard]

This was much appreciated.

Really? The app did not go live for me until 05:03 AM. I was freaking out and scared! This was my total mood. Also, saw this stupid message on iPhone 12 Pro Max. Thank god, that was on my 4th backup choice. So, I didn't care much. My main focus was on the iPad and my iPhone 13 Pro Max.

Keep me posted. You may be the early birds to get the tracking information. Congratulations!

That makes far more sense than two phones. I have one that fits in my pocket and will charge the phone to full when it’s dead.

Wow thats fast and the first

Sadly the upcharge would work for me. I’m in city of Columbus and a month ago I had to file my first every postal service complaint. We went 4 days without mail despite getting daily informed delivery emails. I had a credit card, check, and IRS documents I needed. I don’t know if our usual was sick or on vacation or what but they neglected my very large apartment complex for 4 days.

Your regular was probably on vacation and they were understaffed. My station have 21 routes and for a few days half of those carriers came in, so some routes had to stay because we didn’t have enough people to deliver them. Covid has messed us up bad. I’m rethinking changing to a different craft. Being a letter carrier right now is very exhausting.

Does that mean it will be delivered sooner than originally estimated?

 

[Steve686]

Ok. Thank you, professor. 😂

Almost every post that references "the Postal Service" in this thread is noting that, "Apple has never shipped that way before" which means they think it is the US Mail service.

Maybe there is hope for some after all. 😜

What is the carrier for yours?

Walked to Chinatown for lunch so I'm catching up on the posts again. Here's a picture from the Manhattan Bridge. The weather was perfect today. I'm not looking forward to winter! 🥶

My 14 Plus was Oct 7 - instore pickup or delivery.
I checked and all 14 Plus are after Oct 7.

October 7 is the launch day for the 14 Plus.
