Yes. It was UPS175 and we are hoping to on UPS183.
Mine has been in Louisville since 12:42pm today.
We're gonna blow through last years page numbers.....
So, I use icloud for backup. Should I switch to the computer for restore on the new phone?
I remember something happening with mine last year. Can't really remember the details now, but some sort of problem with customs in China I think. It was a day or so behind nearly all the others. Still, I got it launch day!
We will get it on launch day but UPS is ruining the fun of tracking.
Are you getting yours on the 23rd?
Hope so! Got it with a Midnight Ocean band. A spare Orange Alpine is on order by that deliver like 10/07. How about yourself?
Guess we’ll have more tracking to do next weekend!! Whoop!
Who was it that said that all new iPhones had the newest OS? Said that all of these new iPhones would have iOS 16.0. I hope you’re around to eat your words this Friday if by chance you are wrong.
I know this is a order forum but you guys have been talking about doing backups and starting fresh vs whatever it’s called. Every year I’m nervous what to pick but like last year, I just start the new phone, it says what do I want to do, I panic with the terminology, and pick something that says be sure your phis nearby yada yada. They link up and in a couple minutes my new phone looks exactly like the old one, and it’s done.
Is backing up (which I do always do but never use) and starting fresh all that big a deal? I’ve never done it, never regretted and knock on wood will probably do again because I’m not a tech wizard. It would be a bit overwhelming for me to reinstall all the apps and set stuff up. This topic always messes with me, is there a place I should go study? Sorry to be off topic but you guys started it lol

Nice, mine window is 9/29-10/6 lol. SS with storm blue solo loop. I may get the link bracelet later on, not sure yet. This is my first AW so everything's new to me.
I guess we will just hang out In Louisville until Thursday.
Just hanging in Louisville waiting for the rest of yall

They come with iOS 16; however, there will be an update immediately available for bug fixes.
No eventually as phones get near this is one of the informative things we talk about so your question is appropriate go for it.
If you restore as step 1, does that wipe eSim if it's preconfigured on the device? I'm thinking, with eSim being new for many, it would be best to turn it on and let it activate on the cellular network first?
My personal strategy: iCloud backup daily, do one before setting up new phone. Do an encrypted computer backup in the Finder and then select "archive" to make sure it doesn't get written over by the new phone, make sure you save the password for the encryption. Save it at least for a couple months just in case. I've never needed it, but it is reassuring to know you have it.
Transfer data from your previous iOS or iPadOS device to your new iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
Set up your new iOS or iPadOS device from a backup of your previous iPhone or iPad.
Then do a phone to phone transfer to the new phone, Apple calls it Quick Start. I did several of these in the last year and they are quick and include the eSIM info to quickly complete the setup.

Set up your new iOS device automatically using an iPhone or iPad.
Good luck and have fun!
