I should add that UPS has never failed to get my phone at least within the vicinity of my house on launch day. I do recall one time it actually showed up a day or two early! That was sometime around the iPhone 4 or 5 era.
Another more recent one, it was either the X or XS, the phone was actually on the truck out for delivery that Friday, but it never came. My delivery got re-scheduled for the coming Monday. Bummer but what can you do,
And then without any notification or warning that it would be coming before Monday, it just showed up on that Saturday morning anyway when I wasnāt home. So yeah, it was one day late, glad to not have to wait an extra 2 days on top of that but I was still a little upset they didnāt even warn it would be delivered or out for delivery! Just left the package outside and it was supposedly signed for by me even though I was nowhere near my house!
Anyway, thatās the only time they ever missed a launch day delivery. And itās not like the phone was still in Alaska or anything. It was just in a truck circling around my block for 6 hours without anyone actually attempting a delivery.
Iām confident these will show up on Friday, even if theyāre still showing 9:50 ZZ as the last scan
