Had false hope as I got a text for a UPS shipment that was expected Monday out for delivery today. Unfortunately it wasn’t the iPhones as they haven’t been scanned locally (SoCal) yet. I’m still shocked that UPS is delivering something to my home on a Saturday though.

UPS delivers everyday and every hour. It just depends on the service level. Their Critical service literally will deliver anything from live sharks to human organs anytime since those are mission critical. But how much it will cost you? a lot.

Is Apple beating its own shipping estimates? My order has expected delivery of October 21 - 27, and I‘m wondering if I’ll likely get it earlier.

I think they tend to under promise and over deliver.

Mine originally had an Oct 18-25 window but it has already shipped and should be here in a few days.

I’ve seen many folks who ordered the pro max saying they received their phones several days early. I don’t recall seeing similar early deliveries for the pro models. Maybe I missed them.

Just got an email from UPS giving me a time frame for my delivery tomorrow. My original time date of delivery given by Apple when I ordered on Sept 9 was Oct 10 - 17 so arriving one week early from first date. My previous experience from Apple has been a mix. Last Year I did the early Pre- ordered setup before the preorder started so with the very first shipment. This year I was on the fence if I wanted the new one. Changed my mind a few hours after ordering started and got the Oct 10th date. Last Year I also ordered a new Mini iPad and I did not do the pre order on that but waited a few days. Those dates were way off. I ordered the Folio cover with the iPad both were set to arrive Oct 4th through the 11th, then they moved the date back one week for both. It ended up iPad arrived on Oct 20th and the Folio did not arrive till October 28th. So in that case it was not an Under Promise Over Deliver, just the opposite. I want to say my iPhone 11 was a week late but back then then did not do the Preset up to Pre order and it was basically who could jump in online to get it ordered on the first day.

Still no official shipment for my Oct 11-18 SB14P although it’s been in “preparing to ship” for a few days now. Seems a little odd, hopefully I’ll get something tomorrow?

I ordered a SB 14 Pro - same ship dates Oct 11- 18. Not even preparing to ship - still just processing.

Good to know, seems all is fine then. I’m actually pretty surprised there’s been no movement yet as I’ve hardly ever had an Apple product deliver on its estimated date, always has shown up earlier.

My silver iPhone 14 Pro Max has been sitting in China since 9/28 - no movement since then. When do you think I might get it? I am in a suburb of Chicago.
