Carrier Apple.com New 2018 iPhone Pre-Order Thread

anyone find a UPS flight from zhengzhou to Incheon that leaves around the time of our departure scans?

Last year the tracking went straight from ZZ to AK, so I wouldn’t rule that out.

I don't know, but if i remember correctly my Apple Watch in 2015 went from Shanghai to Incheon....then back to Shanghai the next day. I have no idea?

Again proof that tracking is broken and not to be trusted at all.

I wonder what flight us 5:46am departures are on! Should be Alaska next, right? Here we go!

Here ya go!

I don’t see an UPS flight from ZhengZhou to Anchorage, perhaps they are going to Shanghai first.

My phone no longer tracks has an update in like three days I have a feeling it is sitting in Alaska with other people’s phones were not tracking

Alaska is just a refueling stop. Even though there is usually a delay, it's because it's not accepted into worldport (Louisville) until it clears customs.

 

[The Reason]

No departure scan here...

 

[PlainEnvelopes]

mine is still posted up in China. 12:03 order time

 

[rjruiz2]

Maybe going from ZZ to USA?

 

[Zetaprime]

Don’t people in here get it? Tracking is broken and none of that info means a damn thing. When it says out for delivery then it’ll be believable again.

 

[cannono]

Shanghai or Incheon next? That’s the question for the 5:46AM ZZ departures

Movement!
Adios ZhengZhou

Not me...this is mine at the moment.

ZhengZhou, China 09/17/2018 2:10 A.M. Arrival Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/16/2018 11:57 P.M. Departure Scan
China 09/17/2018 4:18 A.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS

I can't believe all you 11:57/2:10-ers left without me...what am I supposed to do with all these t-shirts!!!

 

[HuskerHarley]

Yeah and there is some thought about when it flips to shipped on the Apple Store App. I figured as soon as it left China but folks here say that it could flip as late as Wed/Thurs when it leaves Louisville, KY for home delivery.

I think if you've been charged (as I have) it's all fine. We're in the very early stages of shipping/tracking. Updates will come in waves.

Also, here's a nice comparison of the screen real estate of the iPhone 8 Plus vs the XS Max.

I just put my 8+ into my new SMAX case. It fit like it was an 8+ phone case, very snug & secure...Virtually a clone.

Tracking is a beloved and mysterious thing. It’s all we have to hold on to.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Anyone have a info on flight for this one please

We are trying to have fun.

 

[Koobs]

My phone FINALLY left ZZ!

 

[Evomasta]

Just got departure scan from ZhengZhou also, 5:46 am.

SG 64gb Max

Same ! Yay

 

[CodeSpyder]

I don’t see an UPS flight from ZhengZhou to Anchorage, perhaps they are going to Shanghai first.

Oooo, I hope so! They can pick up my watch in Shanghai along the way!

Nah. Now that I see it’s obvious that tracking is not functioning it doesn’t matter till Friday.

 

[mtrctyjoe]

Grrrrrrr

 

[Sdl1202]

Call your carrier and complain? Switch carriers?

I have AT&T. After ordering my phone on my Apple receipt it says AT&T was charging a $30.00 upgrade fee! I said oh no they are not!!!! I’ve been with AT&T since the iPhones were 1st launched over 10 years ago, so I called them later that morning & they told me no problem they would waive the fee. I have to wait until it appears on my bill & they will waive it. So I’m expecting them to do just that & if they don’t It will be on for real & I will switch carriers. Hope this helps, just call them & protest the fee.

 

[Stlcheer]

Still stuck in ZZ

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Any info on arrival date? Flight info?

 

[vtboyarc]

Nah. Now that I see it’s obvious that tracking is not functioning it doesn’t matter till Friday.

See ya in here Friday, then!
Meanwhile we are gonna have fun trying to track the flights on Flightaware etc

 

[Zetaprime]

I’m outta here. No real data is going to be showing up for the next couple of days.
