For those of us that have requested our phones to be held at the UPS Customer Center - is there any acknowledgment in the tracking info that the phone is now being held? I got the confirmation on the site once I submitted the request, but otherwise my tracking now looks the same.
normally It will show, but they are hidden. After import scan and stuff you will see everything. So once you made the request it’s in the system.

You should see a "delivery change requested" update show up shortly after you submit the request, and your scheduled delivery date will probably change to "information unavailable" temporarily. It won't actually get processed until your package reaches the final local station.
 
Just some encouragement to those who see little/no movement. According to UPS, my phone was sitting in Korea with less than 24 hours until my scheduled delivery. I think it was the iPhone X or 7 Plus. Anyway, I felt like there was no way I would be getting it. Went to bed, woke up and it had been scanned 7 times hopped around and was at my local facility loaded on the delivery vehicle. UPS knows how to do this and can move stuff at ungodly speeds. Scans are just little snapshots of progress but don’t always reflect reality. I still track packages via the UPS app and sometimes it will skip arrival or departure scans entirely.
 
Kinda off-topic but did you guys see how easily those magsafe wallets were coming off the phones in the reviews today? Sort of worried about how reliable they're going to be now

I saw that in one of the reviews and canceled my order for it. I'll carry my cards the old fashion way in my regular card wallet than risk losing it falling off the back of the phone.
 
Hmph, UPS seems to be delivering my phone tomorrow...LOL 🤣🤣 #Trolling

Question: What is the fastest way to setup a new iPhone?

1. Quick Start over Wifi
2. Restore Backup from my computer? (saved copy of current iPhone)

Didn't order one, my wallet is already a slim pocketable card holder esque design, and having it stick to my phone is not something I desire to have. I feel bad for anyone who ordered it tbh, just looks like a pain.

If your current iPhone is updated to iOS 14.1 quicks start over wifi is really quick to move data over, assuming your internet at home isn't less then 10mbps.

Yeah luckily I didn't order one either. No wonder Apple was letting some people keep a free wallet after they messed up their colors 🤣

My case in Cypress green for the 12P arrived today. The good news is that it is very nice and I think it will look great with my gold phone, but comparing it to my 11P in its case, it looks like the 12P will be bigger than I hoped.
