He’s going around me. I looked at the apple store app in case mine doesn’t arrive. Only one available within 2 hours of me is a Gold PM 1TB in San Francisco! I ordered Purple pM 512GB. Every closer apple store has no PMs at all. I will continue waiting……. Everything is sold out in Northern CAlifornia now. Shipping is Oct 24-31.

A Purple PM 1TB just popped up 40 minutes away. hmmmm

I am going to wait until 6.30 or so. If he doesn't move, I will get it from BB. Plenty of stores have DP available in Dallas area.

Sortation? Is that really a word? Bummer...hope you get it sooner...

Evidently, it sure is!

Mine opened at 12, I arrived at 1:10 and no line. I asked the employee if there was a line when they opened he said not really I was kind of impressed with UPS today. Last year I reserved At the Apple Store and it was pretty crazy. Now I’m undecided for next year. lol. I have been ordering in-store pick up for the past few years.

The ONLY advantage Apple Store pickup has is being able to change your mind and swapping on the spot.

My local Apple Stores nearby are all sold out of pro max ( Eastern Virginia). There is one Apple store in North Carolina that has a 512 GB Deep Purple Pro Max available for pick up tomorrow if anyone here is looking by any chance. I would hurry if that's the case.

Had it shipped to my office and the mailroom said UPS came and nothing was there for me! UPS tracker still says out for delivery today by 7pm, but the mailroom says they don’t typically come twice in a day. Security knows to call me when it comes so I’m sitting here at 6:30pm on a Friday waiting. Thanks UPS!

 

[Daran1977]

FedEx is trolling me.... They have driven by three times today.... UPS tracking says almost there.... hoping it is soon.... Have plans tonight and the new phone/camera would come in handy

Well well well, what do we have here 👀

The gold is pretty muted, I would say it's more champagne. I love it.

And a final shot alongside my trusty yet aging 7:

I'm so happy it's finally here. Now onto turning it on! Hopefully that's a smooth process. 🤞

@Brad7 Wow! Congratulations! Well deserved! MVP of this thread!!! This iPhone is your trophy. 🏆 I love the gold color too. It’s definitely giving me iPhone XS vibes. That was such an iconic iPhone. Please come back and join us for the iPhone 15 pre-order. I appreciate all your hard work and support! Go beyond! Go beyond iPhone! 🫡

I don't get my new watch for a week. Do I unpair current watch from the old phone and re pair it on the new or will it transfer over when setting the new phone up?

 

[kuietstorm]

Phone-to-phone migration and iCloud backup both were taking way too long for me so I'm doing a fresh set up. The manual installs and logins are taking relatively fast since all I had to do was to sign in and the apps would automatically restore my last backup.

Mine took 12 minutes to complete.

Back in my subdivision

Just delivered! 😀
Really digging the purp! Straight 🔥🔥

Nice pics!

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Put it this way. I’m up to the list I’m quoting you and started reading the night you started this thread!

You got that right. I read every single post in this thread. 100% accurate lol. I was glued but it was well worth it. Cheers!

 

[funktofunk]

In GA here, says out for delivery, hoping UPS makes it by 7 as delivery window says. No BB stores in my area have stock on PM as it seems. Nothing like that anticipation lol 😆

 

[bige12]

Kind of getting a little nervous since it’s 6:25pm and still no Apple Watch or iPhone 14 pro max

 

[mtulman1]

My phone has arrived. Yay! I will be waiting however to open the box until tomorrow as my sister and i have a ritual of opening them together and tomorrow is the first time we can do it. So i will stare at it for the evening!! It’s been fun following along and see you all in 355+ days god willing!!

 

[Legion103]

How does UPS just not show up? What do I do now? 🙈

 

[serrenity20]

Thanks. Did you do an iPhone to iPhone transfer ? Or was there a step before ? Thanks.

Your welcome I did manual setup was pretty easy to do

It’s been a fun ride again this year! I’m looking forward to it again next year! I have not seen your unboxing, but I did see the photos from earlier. Thank you for all of YOUR encouragement. I’ll still be around on these forums throughout the year. If you’re on Twitter, you can follow me… my handle is the same as here. 😊😊

Probably they are just super busy and every state has different amounts of traffic

 

[Brad7]

I’d like to thank all of you, especially @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗 for keeping the conversation going and making this the happiest place in the internet.

100% agreed! I cannot remember the last time I had this much fun on the internet, coming here every day, constantly refreshing for hours, sleep be damned. @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗 has built something very special here. It was a pleasure and honor to interact with every one of you over this past week.

So I suspect that the battery life on the pro max is going to take a little bit to actually start working better but I had it at 100% charge at 3pm and I’m already down to 86%. Very little gaming going on but the back of the phone is pretty warm. :/

 

[dstew201]

Ugh the UPS driver was literally right across the street like 20 minutes ago. Checked again and he’s way down the road where he was two hours ago. Original window said 1-5pm, but it’s after 6pm now.

Chase him down!!!!😉

 

[bige12]

29 minutes til 7pm for and tracking says deliver by 7pm and my tracking still says out for delivery

 

[Brad7]

What's the latest delivery status? Can you call them?
