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

[Fred Zed]

From what I've heard, it'll protect it but photo quality is reduced. It's a trade-off.

Yep. Greatly effected isn’t an exaggeration either. I took mine off from the 13 PM ages ago. Pics are much nicer. Never again.

How iphones can those planes carry?

Let's say UPS is using their 747-8 Freighter fleet for this (likely, the -400 isn't that different). It can carry 46 AMD containers that are about 748 cu ft usable space. With current dimensions of an iPhone 14 Pro Max box as currently guessed, that's about 4600 iPhones in one, give or take, and assuming UPS isn't loading anything else on board and the MTOW/weight-balance allows for it (it almost certainly does, it'd have to be a really weird situation with runways, weather, etc for it not to...) that's 211,600 (roughly) per 747-800.

Very rough math, but if a UPS employee or logistics specialist wants to correct me, I'm all for it, but this was the rough math adapted from a few large product launches I worked on.

Finally pulled the strings

UPS honored my request. Free of charge pick up at UPS Customer Care Hub. Once my iPhones arrive in Kentucky, They will flag it hold for up. Let's gooo!

I think it's the order you add them in - remove them all and then add them in the order you want them left to right.

You can always rearrange the ones that can be moved... but as I stated above, if you mix large and small widgets, the large ones ALWAYS have to be to the left.

Good luck! They're not playing with us this year. Hopefully they will honor it for it.

My 14 PM still showing only processing but still has a delivery date of this Friday. Not worried as every one of my iPhones have arrived on time.

 

[MozMan68]

Ok, I want to see you next year for iPhone 15 pre-order launch. No, if's and but's, please.

I'll be here...if not to get a phone, to at least cause trouble...

 

[CodeSpyder]

Still no departure from ZZ.

 

[SisterBlue22]

In any case, UPS is showing my 14PM has left South Korea this morning! Apple is still "preparing to ship."

Apple won't change your status to "Shipped" until the phone clears customs at SDF Louisville WorldPort and starts moving to your local UPS hub.

Have you signed up for UPS MyChoice?

I have My Choice and I am getting the same tracking "info" when I search for my new iphone using the reference number. This is the first time that I have not gotten my tracking info "early". I even tried calling UPS (what a nightmare) and see if they could give me the full tracking info and they claim that they do not have access to it. Grr..

 

[Brad7]

Yes. Do I need a premium membership?

Nope, free works. Some people have not been able to see it there yet, though, so that could be your issue. Just have to wait it out. (no need for premium still)

 

[fryfrkhlly]

Just got charged for my pickup on the 17th!! Hoping I have time that day. Two birthday parties to go to lol busy weekend for the kids.

 

[pnorwood54]

Check if there's a SIM card? I believe last year when Apple shipped out the 13 Pros, there were no SIM cards and everything we eSIM. This is what I see when I go into Settings -> Cellular:

Do you see the "Delete eSIM" option as well?

[whattodo11]

I'm trying to divert my delivery to a UPS Store for pickup, because I expect I'll be at work when it arrives. I went to UPS My Choice, but they want to charge me $5.99 for this change. Is there anyway to get around the charge? I mean, I'm actually asking them to do less work. :/

If you go back and read we have discussed this at length in this thread.

En Route! Our plane is expected to be in American soil again. Going to pass Wisconson. Good bye Canada!

Take out those extra pilot seats in the plane, we can squeeze some more phones in it.

Officially in the US FOR GOOD!

This is the extent of my tracking. Not sure how everyone else is seeing more info.

So you don't have the little arrow on the top right corner to expand?? Like mine below.

Hahaha, yes, totally agree! Pilots, who needs those, anyway? Isn't there an app for that?

Very nice. Any idea how much is the estimated cost?

No you do not need premium. I don't have premium and have all my tracking info.
