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

[Exiled212]

Pro Max is the way to go. More battery life and more screens. However many people go after the small size factor so they don’t care about the other features.

Unless your my dumb butt who in a preorder half asleep daze preordered the Pro when I meant Pro Max. Oh well. I’m rolling with it. Don’t have the energy to go through exchanging it. 😂

Purple is my wife’s color. She’d probably reappropriate my new phone the moment I got it!

Which color did you get for yourself?

The way Verizon does it for the Hulu/Disney+/Espn+ package is that they pay for the standard plan...and then on Hulu, you can get charged separately for upgrading to Hulu (no ads).

I wonder if that'll be the same for Apple One. You pay the standard plan and then you go through Apple to pay the difference. I'm sure there will be an FAQ on it soon.

I’m waiting for them to post the FAQ.

Still a nice-looking phone. Can't argue with the compact and size of the iPhone.

well in the past carriers used to charge you a fee to have a line going.

Was that in addition to the plan price?

 

[Wolfs]

Hmmm…maybe I should have gotten the purple to match my main guitar! View attachment 2056072

Missed opportunity!

 

[Shadowbech]

Was that in addition to the plan price?

yes, and i'm wondering with the unlimited data plans there is no extra fee to have that line correct?

 

[macbookguy]

Was that in addition to the plan price?

Yes if you're cellular. For me its $5 (after a $5 discount) for having a Get More plan the watch is paired with. (It sounds to me like you're expressing that $5 though when you say it's $5/mo for you.)

$10/mo for Play More and Start, $5/mo for Get More and Do More ... not sure about Welcome.

Stealth Black. I love the elegantly executive look of it.

God Father Boss Status! Straight-up executive style. All business. Congratulations!

Still catching up on the thread but here’s my current situation. Still showing Sep 23 by postal service.

@Brad7 Anything interesting happened in the U.K. thread? What are they talking about?

Verizon has a shared line plan option for connecting smart devices. They run specials where if you buy your Apple Watch through them, then will only charge $5 for the connected device. They offered me $150 off the AW6 and the service is $5 a month.

pre ordered the purple pro max. Arriving Oct 17th-24th which is exactly when I wanted it to arrive.

Folks! I can’t stress this enough. I think that the postal service message is a hoax. This is coming straight from Apple’s own website. Apple does not use USPS for delivery options. UPS will be the main freight carrier to be delivering our iPhones. Stay tuned!!!

I’m on the Do More Plan.

Bruuhhh! Should have ordered the iPhone 14 Plus. But why so late?

 

[FattiesGoneWild]

Honestly - I think most people who ordered Pro went Pro Max this year.

Pro Max is always the bigger seller. People like phablet’s.

 

[Exiled212]

I’m on the Do More Plan.

I got the Do More plan too. I already have the Disney bundle and Apple One so I chose that one today.

 

[macbookguy]

I’m on the Do More Plan.

That should net you the $5/mo for a cellular Apple Watch.

 

[Laryl]

With the purple undertones it could be one of the best combos of all.

I’m starting to think maybe it will be great. Actually except the camera cutout the beautiful purple will go unappreciated anyway, and I’ve always gotten a black case.. looking forward to something with a touch of color!

I “took the leap” and moved *away* from the Max size last year…. No regrets Now I’m waiting to see what they do next year to differentiate the Max from the regular Pro… they might suck me back in. (One of the reasons I always got the Plus / Max was because there was always some camera feature that only the bigger phone had…)

Following up with this conclusion. Bottom line: if the product is in the USA distribution hub. Apple will and can use FedEx. Otherwise, UPS is the main carrier. There are Aviation contract and Operating Permit that goes behind this. This is not Uber eats.
