Do you guys do iUP or purchase outright/Apple Card?

This is my first year upgrading through Apple, and I signed up for iUP. I was thinking, and aren’t we all going to have to wait 2 months to upgrade next year if they go back to August release? Due to the 12 payment requirement.
iUP since it started. Also, Apple adjusts (or tells you to pay a couple months up to "be ready") iUP to accommodate their users if they're the ones who mess up the schedule. They're not in the habit of upsetting their most loyal iPhone consumers. It's worth mentioning they also go out of their way to fix any issues that may come up if you're apart of iUP. I remember something going wrong a few years ago and it affected a number of iUP customers.. I forget what it was exactly.. but Apple went out of their way to fix the issue and make sure the affected iUP customers got their phones on launch day one way or another. I remember reading where Apple proactively called customers and told them to head to their local Apple store where the people just walked in (skipping the line) to collect phones on launch day or a day or two later (circumventing the queue that was in place at that time).

I’ll just pay it and move on...

Did you pay full price? You doing monthly payments? I'm assuming you bought from Apple?
Full price unlocked from Apple. Its fine, I cancelled the order and placed another one, I can pick up at the store Friday and its not far out of the way, so no biggie.

I couldn't get any info from the UPS app and track by reference wasn’t working for me on the UPS website...until just now realizing I had to be logged in to the UPS website to get track by reference details. Sounds like I’m with the 5:50 crew and my delivery estimate is 10/21 as well.

I do not think there is any chance of these coming early, but do admit that the number of people with early dates seems more significant than prior years (there’s always some on these threads). With all of that said, I was one of the lucky ones to get the iPhone 4 a day early - and there were a lot of us that year...it wasn’t just a few that slipped through the cracks. Maybe lightning can strike twice? Less than 1% chance, but it’s a chance. Of course, if it does come early, won’t be able to activate...

Chicago is beautiful! I wish to visit Sears Tower one day. My grandfather used to live there and he had a mini store. @kuietstorm please share some pictures Of the skyline please.
Two from my high-rise balcony downtown. And one I took while walking downtown.
