Agree that is beyond impressive. Never hated iJustine. Just not a big fan of her. I do respect her hustle as we all should. Not going to sit here and watch her videos all day long.

I get what you're saying. I enjoy her videos for her positive vibes and she is the reason I became an Apple fan. But I don't really go to her for hard-hitting tech reviews ( especially Apple's). I look to other tech reviewers who will share the pros and cons with no bias. I also respect iJustine hustle though and her being able to still be relevant on YouTube for this long. She is one of the last OG YouTubers still around.
 
UPS 175 is en route! Where is it going? It looks like it's an empty plane. Is this plane coming to get us?

Why do Carriers seem to get so many more phones than Apple themselves. I have seen people order from a carrier hours after me and still got launch day delivery while mine from Apple shipped to mid October after and hour or so of dealing with Tmo system issues
 
Anyone have any recommendations for a good mag safe combo charger for the iPhone and watch? Seen so many on Amazon and looked at many of the reviews. Interested if anyone here has any recommendations
I ended up buying the Elago stand that would house a MagSafe charger and Apple Watch charger.


I didn’t already have a MagSafe charger or Apple Watch USB-C cable so I bought those as well, and a new Anker charger with two USB-C ports.

Once it was all said and done, and with some small coupons here and there, I basically spent the equivalent of the Otterbox 2-in-1 stand that is supposed to be able to wirelessly fast charge the iPhone and Apple Watch.

@ShadowGuardian87 100% agree with you. The thing with iJustine is there are no cons. It's all about just the pros. That's NOT how it works in the real world. I'm a perfectionist too but trust me I have flaws. We all have flaws. Even Apple has flaws but she ignores them and makes it seem like we live in a perfect world. Then, Apple hits us with eliminating a 5W charger from the box.

Let's see you watch her full video tomorrow. No skipping when she laughs or gets eagerly excited. Report it back here tomorrow. Let's see what you come up with :)

Those are guaranteed sales.

They buy the phones from apple before selling to customers. This happens a lot more than you thing.

Millions in sales that apple doesn’t have to lift a finger to. End user sales are taken care of by the carrier.

Certainly not empty, scans are likely delayed. Might even get a Seoul scan before the ZZ one comes through. Should turn and leave for ANC after about 2 hours on the ground.
 
For any pre-order veterans out there, a quick question. I just called UPS to attempt to expedite shipping on my phone (I was fully expecting them to say no, but it was worth a shot) and they told me that the package has “cleared customs” (it’s been in Louisville this morning and flew in on 5X91) and will therefore arrive at my address in 1-2 business days. Is this correct information, or will these phones likely stay in Louisville until Thursday? Also, does “cleared customs” mean the same thing as the import scan?
 
Did we ever determine if it’s specific colors/storage that left on the 1st batch out?

PM Purple 128 sitting in Louisville
PM Gold 128 sitting in ZZ
I’ve got a PM Space Black 256 sitting in my home state in Louisville and a PM Purple 128 sitting in ZZ. There’s probably no telling what logistics Apple uses shipping these things!

So I would have been better off buying from Tmo than Apple. Will keep that in mind next time
