Same!

Well at least the ship date is the same, I think I ordered Monday.

This is my first 12 Pro Max, and I'm scared considering all the issues people have. Fingers crossed. Hope yours is a good one too! :)
What’s your serial number. I believe it’s customary to state first two or three characters on here 😅 F2L here. It’ll be on the invoice under your Online order.
I’ll be happy with it not having green tint, or as much should I say.

I'm G0.

I'm very happy so far. I have a tiny tiny blemish in the bezel just below the screen, but I'm hoping it won't catch my eye on day to day use.

I haven't seen the green yet, so I'm not going to follow the instructions to make myself see it. If I see it naturally later, that will be another story.

So far, I see beautiful black areas where I expect them, but again, I'm hiding from the instructions on how to look for it on purpose.

How is your new one? Fingers crossed!!

Good to hear, I agree with your comments about not looking for issues, just go enjoy it. Congratulations
Sorry forgot to mention, mines acceptable, and barring any unknown issues I’ll be keeping it.

Thank you. I did have one question if anyone knows...

I have no intention to return right now, but I notice the "start a return" link did not appear at Apple online orders after delivery.

Does that link not show up when you purchased with the Apple Upgrade Program? Do you have to initiate a return through chat if that is the case? Thank you.

I’m not sure to be honest. Perhaps it needs a certain amount of time to appear , like 24 hours. I’m sure someone else more familiar will post.

Yes, with the Apple upgrade program, there isn't an option for the Start a return, you need to chat with apple, or contact apple to initiate that return.

Why is apple use fedex home delivery for my order it coming this wensday ?


will I even get it wensday?
Wow I didn’t know they used fedex home delivery service either. It must be shipping close to you so it should arrive on time. Nevertheless, I’m not excited to know they’re using the ground fedex because if they ever do that to me the pickup station is much further away than the express station.

Apple uses both Fedex and UPS. Apple always used Fedex Express for my orders. sometimes UPS.

Would home delivery be next day ?
Did you look at fedex.com? Also Home Delivery is part of Fedex Ground so normally 2 days but it can be 1 day if it's close.


Enter your zip code and it will tell you how long it can take. Usually if it was just Fedex Express, they overnight it (well at least if i order one they they used fedex, it would come from Lebanon, TN, and usually over nights to Wisconson.

You wouldn't even believe the story if I wrote it out for you guys. After hours of phone calls and chats my order for the 12promax was completed and I will have within 2 days. Excited to start using it.
