That would be nice! I wonder if they are waiting on more phones to ship together on the next flight.

Mine did that... it stuck around for a day to go with the next days batch. But it still hasn't scanned passed Anchorage.

don't worry it'll move. I know that personally being first wasn't always the best. I was loaded one year first and guess what? it was the last to get unloaded. I didn't get anything from Tuesday through Thursday night. All of a sudden on Friday everything caught up and it moved from Louisville to Sylmar, CA in hours. It helps that it was coming west!
 
Does Apple usually overnight ship before release day? it's Wednesday and my iPhone 12 is still preparing to ship.
Mine too ... weird

99% likely it has already shipped. My fiancee's has been preparing since Saturday, but it's been moving since Saturday morning. If you don't have UPSChoice, sign up (it is free). It should show up on your account.

everybody, all of us, with launch day preorders show preparing to ship on the apple store. everyone. but u should be able to c via ups it has actually shipped.
 
For everyone whose phone is stuck with the last update being "In Transit - 10/19 8:34pm - Anchorage, AK - Departed from Facility", our phones are sitting in Louisville, KY. Very likely you will see departure from Louisville tonight and heading for your nearest UPS hub.
I hope so! haha
 
Anybody know if the "later delivery estimates" are showing any movement? I'm in the Oct 30 - Nov 4 bucket for a graphite 12 Pro 512.

Not expecting any miracles, but I know Apple has occasionally overdelivered on those estimates in the past...

Presently still showing as processing.
 
Anyone here in the "I got screwed over by the website gang and just hoping I get an earlier quoted time than November crew?"
I find it very interesting how apple says they have everything to complete my order yet they refuse to prepare it to ship. As a first time iphone customer this whole waiting game has been incredibly unsatisfying. All my other apple items I received 4-7 days ahead of schedule. I am just hoping this doesn't drag out into November because I really wanted to capture the fall colors with my new phone.

Mine hasn’t changed. I worry now that Apple working on the maxes are slowing my delivery.

I got nov 3-nov 10 for 128gb pacific blue 12 pro but am now showing delivery for Friday.
 
Truly is sad when we got to get excited over something that should be included in our 800+ dollar products. Cutting costs while virtue signaling is such a dishonest tactic. Also including a cord that doesn't work unless you purchase a power brick is just an incredible scam.

Unfortunately I got sucked into this ecosystem and want to embrace the new changes. I hope it is worth switching from android to iOS.

I expect you'll be glad you switched to iOS. I actually switched from iPhone to an Android once and was VERY disappointed. It didn't take me long to switch back to my beloved iPhone.
