Other Apple.com iPhone 12/Pro/Max/Mini Pre-Order/Order Status/Delivery Thread (2020) [Merged]

I'm using the Elecshion 3D (privacy) screen protector and it works great as always. I literally drag the phone across my shirt and any fingerprints dissappear.

Oh...and while I was in here whining about how I couldn't wait for my Paciic Blue IP12 Pro Max to arrive, my 44mm Inverness Green Braided Solo watch band is just "preparing to ship." The one I ordered in mid-September when they first came out!! Hah!

Am I wrong to say the "rescheduled delivery" is normal? I just got "Your package is in transit. We're updating plans to schedule your delivery." in Shanghai and I'm kind of freaking out...

 

[ian-frs]

has anyone done a trade-in through apple through purchasing the phone from apple.com

This is the only way I will do a trade in, I don't trust the mail in services. It is super painless and easy as long as your trade in is in decent condition.

This is my first time doing a Apple trade via the the site when order a new phone, but I have done it before in person

It's very normal. No need to worry.

Decided to return the
white Peel case and get the Apple silicone.

And now I absolutely NEED a white band for my Apple Watch. And maybe the white silicone case for my phone too (I'm rocking the Deep Navy silicone right now).

Pretty much!

 

[nmeed]

Pretty much!

Wait, so I am wrong and it's not normal?

It's normal. It needs to clear customs before it can depart Shanghai, which can take 1-2 days.

I hate clear cases, we will see how this goes!

 

[meetsam23]

I meant its pretty normal to see "Rescheduled delivery"... Not that you are wrong. The rescheduled delivery typically happens on same day as customs release the package and is in the stateside, the tentative or exception status goes away.

Man that clear Apple case is not good. Wow. Cannot believe they approved that.

It literally only looks good on the silver pro or white 12's. I remember the day of the announcement when I looked at them on Apple's site I thought the thumbnails were just a preview to show that they contained magnets and when I clicked on the picture it would show the case with the magnets actually masked and to my surprise, the same lol

I hope it's better than last year's clear case: it was very stiff, hard to remove, and it scuffed and smudged terribly. I returned it quickly.

Sounds a lot like me! /sarcasm

Which color iPhone did you have?

 

[Pipper99]

Which color iPhone did you have?

Midnight green 11PM

 

[Shadowbech]

Midnight green 11PM

I see. this is why I tend to stay away from clear cases because they are a pain to remove on a stainless steel case and they tend to stick from my experience.

I like mine on my Graphite gray it looks good but I tend to go with clear to display my phone

 

[soapropos]

Starting to get worried… my trade-in kit still hasn't come and it's been at the Fedex hub near me for 3 days. I got my phone shipped to work and I'm afraid they're going to try and deliver here while we're closed. Don't want to get stuck in a situation where Apple tries to cancel my loan for not sending in the phone and me not receive my trade-in kit.

I like the clear case on my Graphite as well!

Someone needs to make a White LEATHER case!

FedEx has been a mess . I was supposed to get 2 HomePod minis yesterday. The driver scanned them prior to delivery and marked as delivered . Upon getting notification of delivery I checked my porch and found none.

checked the entire street and then the community- no trace of truck and the minis. The customer service phone number wouldn’t even understand my uttering of tracking number. Opened up an investigation with Apple and FedEx (3rd time lucky after 30 minutes of wait), the driver turns up and drops the package in the porch.

thanks to ring camera. When I asked him about prior scans he said he made a mistake of delivery scanning them earlier.

no apologises tendered and this made me request Apple to consider UPS for future shipments. Noted but not guaranteed !

can’t even say the experience with non-apple shipments this whole year.

while ups has been good generally FedEx has been bad. It never was until 2020

 

[jtrue28]

FedEx is garbage.

 

[bige12]

It just strange on how long it takes for them to ship a iPhone since you order one.
