I may do carrier pick up this time around for the 12. I preordered the 11 pro last year and it was fun while creating anxiety at the same time watching the flight with my phone leave China then circle back then make it to the states. The worst part was watching the UPS truck drive around my neighborhood for hours circling making stops before delivering the phone. That was the first time I preordered from Apple. It was definitely fun though.

It’s about that time again! Going to be ordering from Apple again this year if I do go for the 12. Who’s excited?

ETA: Also this includes Apple Store orders as well. Not sure how many are actually open for order pickup though.
Why is this thread already popular?

Thinking about doing that this year, except picking up at UPS store instead of the customer center.

Be careful sending it to the UPS Store. That may delay you by a day if you don’t change delivery to pickup early. I’ve seen years back that some customers didn’t receive their device on the original launch day because they change the delivery to the ups store or ups access point not early enough after the label was created.

I don't. Sorry.



I've always been hesitant to do the UPS store route because in the past the estimated delivery date got increased when I chose one. If I selected a UPS CC it didn't.

Yup I never chose the ups store due to a chance of that happening. On iPhone launch day, my local UPS hub would be crowded with everyone picking up iPhones. I usually waited no longer than 20 minutes in line to receive mine. This year I’m going to chose a 2 hour window to have it delivered at home. I have to do virtual learning with my 3rd grader so I need to be home at 8am.

I check and it’s not here :(

Try this one. I don’t know if it will work.
