I think you’re going to like it! I love the leather patina that forms from these kind of cases!

This color should develop patina. My Apple green leather case from last year still looks brand new. I really like the feel of leather over the silicon cases.

i wish the MagSafe either came with 2m or detached so you could attach the cable of your choice. 1m isn’t long enough for me.

I agree 1M is not long enough. Maybe we can submit a request for Apple to make it longer.

There is a Cargolux flight (CLX8551) scheduled to leave for Anchorage around 8AM local time (8PM Eastern).

It's a 747-400F, the second largest commercial freighter.

Yea weird mine is showing a 10/21 delivery date too

I got the same message, paid for it years ago. Looking like it will still work after feb 2021, but just not for their June cloud. You should be using iCloud anyways so don’t really matter.

I back mine up via iCloud anyway.

possible they use that for the phones?

What is all the hype about UPS Pro? I just have the free account and it still lets me tracking reference and see that my phone has departed ZhengZhou. What does the pro add, other than allowing you to change deliveries and stuff?

The biggest thing is it let you pick a confirmed 2 hour window for 1-3 times for free a year.

my label for case was created on 16th with fedex. never shipped since then.

Mine were created on the 16th and were picked up by Fedex just a few mins ago in Mount Juliet, TN. Deep Navy Silicone Case, Kumquat Silicone Case and Magsafe Charger. Three different Fedex packages. I was worried but you should be seeing pickup scam in a few hours.

UPS Premium allows you to make delivery changes without incurring a cost for delivery to another address.

I am using that feature to re-route my iPhone from my billing / home address to my work address in case they need a signature.

I am trying out this Premium upgraded membership this year as last year was too stressful trying to meet the UPS driver...

A few weeks back T-Mobile Tuesday gave out a free UPS My Choice Premium Membership for the rest of the year.

Should look something like this. This is a 747.

Very possible. UPS used 747s for the iPhone X launch.

Just checked my tracking from last year for the 11 Pro Max, It went from ZZ to Incheon on 9/16, Korea and sat there for a couple days (9/18), then went to Anchorage and got a day back (9/17), then within a couple hours it left anchorage for Louisville hub on 9/18 for its import scan (customs), then left early 9/19 from Louisville to my local distribution center, then loaded on the truck. So going off the timeline if it were to really get here Wednesday it would need to leave ZZ within 24 hours if it goes to Incheon. Ive attached the path from last year to this for reference.

That's a 777F freighter. Here's a Cargolux 747-400F.

 

[Nhwhazup]

So for those that get a new unlocked phone without a SIM card, do you use the old one or get a new card? I’ve always just swapped in my old card. Any benefit to getting a new SIM?

Just pop your old sim in and youre good to go.

Do you know the difference?

 

[Pipper99]

Well, my MagSafe case went from delivery today to 10/21. I kinda thought that’d happen. 🤷‍♂️

 

[cousintim]

Partially true. On T-Mobile, you need a new R15 SIM to connect to the fastest version (mmWave) of 5G.

 

[cousintim]

Do you know the difference?

Yes, the easiest way to tell is that the 747 has a hump and four engines, and the -400 variants have a longer hump and winglets, as shown in the picture.

my case is still sitting at info sent to fedex. Local Apple store has them so ordered for Tuesday pickup in case there isn’t movement.

 

[dmacrye]

Do you know the difference?

They’re different kinds of planes. 747’s have the hump in the front.

Shipped Wednesday delivery! We will see if it actually happens. 12 Pro 256 GB Graphite

Found my phone in UPS tracking as well with the Wednesday, October 21st delivery date. If I remember correctly this has happened before and later on in the shipping process it gets put on a hold for Friday delivery.

 

[Johnny907]

Do you know the difference?

Primarily? The 777F has a maximum payload capacity of 226,000 lbs, whereas the 47-400F 249,000 lbs.

Yep, expect to have an updated delivery date from UPS
