Found this on UPS site:

UPS is changing how the reference number tracking results are displayed to provide additional protection:

  • Tracking details will be mostly masked with only basic reference number tracking details available.
  • Senders that have saved the shipment's account number as a payment method in their profile, or in their company profile, will see the full tracking details.
 
Yes. Ordered a Purple 14 Pro Max - 1 TB and have received tracking. I’m also part of the iPhone Upgrade Program through Apple.
I’ve got tracking too but mines a 256GB Space Black Pro Max. Also part of the upgrade program and have a question for you. Did you ever get the loan information email from Citizens about the iPhone and the loan number? Thanks. I’ve yet to get my email even 24 hours later despite being told I was pre-approved and my order via UPS shows as shipped.
 
I have last year’s Midnight case and it definitely looks bluish black on my blue 13PM but on hubby’s SG, it looks black. What color phone did you order? I don’t know how the Ink would look on a purple. I’m guessing very deep purple, but black on the black phone. Not sure why it looks blue in that video but the green also looks blue. I’ll be looking forward to hearing what you think after you have in hand but still will depend on the phone it’s put on and even if a wallet is used with it. So complicated to get the right match when we don’t have the phones.
Current feeling - Liking the Ink Leather! I think I’ll try and break out of standard colors for this round. Here’s a video with first, the Silicon Storm Blue, then Ink Leather and last, Midnight Leather. Both leather cases really change hues with the angle of lighting. On its own, Ink almost looks black…until it’s next to Midnight.


Here’s some stills (Ink on Left / Midnight on Right):

Edit - The store folks wouldn’t let me browse the other colors…only if I had bought them. Thursday night, they’ll change over everything for the 14s.
 
The first of my tracking numbers just showed up in UPS.
I have two phones and two watches ordered, I suspect this is one of the watches since it is shipping from TN:

Interesting, Do the watches ship from US location? My phone I believe has shipped via UPS but weighs in at just under 1 pound or .40 KGS. Can’t see anything about my Series 8 watch yet although on apple app says preparing to ship like the phone.
 
Yes, because the new iPhone 14 does not have a SIM card slot (US models):(
So do we have to switch to esim before activating the new iPhone?
My iPhone 13 (AT&T) didn't ship with a sim, and I didn't have to do anything at all to switch to eSim before it arrived. I simply turned on the new phone and it activated the eSim for me. Seamless.
 
This is my first time ordering an iPhone. Is everyone usually this obsessed with tracking? :oops:
It’s an annual tradition for most of us. Best part of the year is the hype around ordering the second preordering opens and then compulsively tracking shipping until you get your new phone.

I remember when the jet black 7+ came out there were delays and we were literally tracking the UPS planes out of China into Alaska.

It’s not just the thrill of getting a new phone, it’s the whole experience
 
Ohhh ok. Why are we not the lucky ones to be in the first batch of the shipment? We are here every year but we are always the last ones to leave. Have you noticed that? 🤨
I absolutely HAVE noticed that!! Doesn't seem fair, but I guess we have a higher purpose....us experienced gals stay behind to make sure every last straggler feels loved and catches up to the rest of the pack. We are like the tour guides - first off the bus, and last back on!!

UPS enforced this rule last year with the iPhone 13s order it's so dumb.

I ordered on Friday and secured a pickup time at my local store in the morning, but now the order status on the Apple Store app states the following:

iPhone 14 Pro, available for pickup null

Additionally on the website it shows:

Your item will be ready for pickup shortly

I have not been charged on my card yet and the phone is currently in the Processing status.

Any ideas on what’s going on with my order? Should I still expect that my phone will be available for my original pickup time at my local Apple Store?
There were a couple of other folks here with the null, as well, I believe they had the same status. Also from what I understand, pickup orders will get updates later on compared to home deliveries.
