The leather “ink” case was just delivered, and it’s very nice. It’s very dark with a hint of a purplish hue. It’s going to go very nicely with the deep purple iPhone.

Thanks so much! Mine is sitting at my UPS CC and won’t deliver until Monday so you’ve relieved my concern that I was going to have to send it back if it was blue like it looks in some pictures and videos.
 
Anyone here have September 28 - October 3? Preordered minutes after it let me in. hoping it still shows up this week!!

I got that when I ordered my hubby’s SB 128 PM, but there were a lot of processing issues involved. I hope you’re right about it coming sooner. My DP 256 PM will deliver on launch day. I may have ordered mine first. 🥹
 
I have a Midnight Leather already and it is about Black. Picking up an Ink Leather case today and I'll have them side by side. I was looking for a more bluish black, myself.
I ordered Ink. Didn’t expect it to be a navy blue. Now I’m thinking Midnight, which I thought would be too bluish. Wish they had an aubergine or deep cherry this year. We need more color options.

I do have mix feeling about that Ink. I just picked up the Apple Magsafe Wallet - INK and the pictures showed like it's very dark purplish color. But the actual wallet itself is very like darker than midnight and yes kind of like very dark dark blue.

Just got back from the gym and the package with my Ink leather case was waiting for me. A quick comparison with my Green 13 Pro case shows that the camera cutout is identical in size. The 14 Pro case, however, is about a millimeter thicker. Still no origin scan for the actual phone, but I’m not worried about it.
 
Yeah. I’ve had very high priced items that had direct signature required and without having to sign for it, they left it by my front door and marked it as signed with the name of “door” lol.
IIRC Apple blocked that digital signature capability in prior years before Covid. Since covid it was UPS driver delivers to a person.
I checked and now that it says preparing to ship I can not change the address.
I think once it gets CONUS you can get it changed/held.

Considering all through the checkout process it said September 16, I was disappointed to say the least. Still holding hope as I’ve seen it go up in time in previous years, but being cautiously optimistic so I don’t let myself down lol

I have the apple magsafe wallet - INK that I picked up and it sure does look more like dark navy blue to it then purple. Just like the ink in the pen, it's not pure black.

Still too early for tracking # to get assigned. Maybe we get lucky or maybe we will be with the other batch.
 
I think you"ll see your updates once Apple fully catches up, but if it's on it's way I'm thinking you're getting it on launch day.

ETA-the important thing now is UPS
UPS innovations. Last mile is done my USPS.

happy to see movement for everyone’s that has. I ordered mine one min after pre orders started and breezed through the check out. Not looking so promising. Checked ups nothing.
 
How long for CN Customs release at airport? Need that departure scan. Can’t relax until I’m airborne.
Just depends but normally it's done within 24 hours. It's a whole process but I know it takes time and could take a full day. Last year it took over 48 hours I believe. We were stuck. The year before that only took 24 hours. Happy and safe travels to you.
 
Possibly a dumb question: if I ordered a Series 8 Watch and iPhone 14 Pro, would they come in a single box, or as two separate shipments? I only see one UPS shipment so far but would expect another soon for whichever doesn't weigh 0.4kg.
