I'm still reading back on page 57, post #1425 and decided to try some of the tricks to track mine.

I thought it was strange that Apple.com says preparing for shipment when other people had tracking via UPS my choice. Nothing showed up in my own UPS mychoice account where I get alerted a day before a package is arriving at home or work, so I tracked by reference with the order # minus the last 2 digits.

I clearly got different results at UPS than what I got from Apple.com, and it's actually on it's way.

Apple flips to "Shipped" only once it leaves China and is inbound for the US. This method is just one that was sussed out by this group years ago to get a heads up over the info Apple provides.

That's 1.1 lbs.
Yeah I did the conversion.
XS Max is 7.3oz or 208g
Almost 1/2 lb at 0.45625 for the phone itself. Add the box, contents. About 1lb.

My XS Max 512GB Space Gray (iUP) shipped, joining the 2:10 AM club. I'd like to pick it up at a CC but does it tell you if the delivery date will change before a final submission? I don't want to press a couple of buttons and end up with a 9/24 pickup date without being told first.

Well I finally got a shipping notice for my case, though it doesn't show in UPS yet. But at least I'm caught up with the rest of you who ordered one!

As long as it’s the CC you should be good. Everything goes through CC.

I ordered my case right after my phone too. Do you have a Wednesday delivery? Mine says that.

Yes it says Wednesday though the tracking number doesn’t work. I am going to guess that it will start working tomorrow since its a work day

Yes. Got the tracking # from Apple, but nothing showing up on UPS. I figure they are here in the states and they will show up tomorrow on the UPS app.

That is what I am guessing as well. I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t the only one.

Anyone with just an XS (not max) get shipping info on the UPS app (track by reference)?

My XS Max is showing up twice (same tracking number) in UPS Choice, but my wife’s XS is not showing up at all under my number, her number, or Apple order number. All three show as “Preparing for Shipment” in the Apple store though.
