Finally arrived! I literally ran to the door and opened it before he rang lol
*sigh* One of the first casualties of Apple reducing the plastic films in their packaging.
Me, I wouldn't accept that - I'd be on the phone with Apple to get it replaced - have them contact your local Apple store (if it's convenient) so you can walk in and get it exchanged.
How do you prove at the Apple store you didn't do it? Same with people reporting scratches etc.
Agreed. No way in heck would I accept that. These devices aren't cheap. If my new phone arrived with anything less than a perfect screen fresh out of the box it'd be going back. No if, ands, or buts about it. Returned.
And I wouldn’t walk out until I got a brand new, in box phone, sealed.
I am waiting to talk to apple now. The rep online said I would have to send it back and wait for a new one. I am not happy. I also do not live near an Apple store.
So mine did make it in the end! Didn’t land in Mount Hope until early this morning. It sat in Louisville KY for sometime.
Small amusing anecdote - when I went out to get the package from the UPS driver he smiled and said, “That’s one of the new ones, huh?”
I said yes and he laughed and said, “i still have half a truck full of just those, and I’ve been delivering these all day.”
it was 3pm. I’m guessing a lot of Torontonians got their phones later in the day.

Photos do not do this colour justice. I would almost describe it as a stormy blue.
Neither did mine, sat in Kentucky for quite some time as well. Now it's been sitting in Richmond since just after 8am. Apple was kind enough to send me an email at 6:45pm telling that there will be a delay in my order. Wish they could have gotten their crap together a lot earlier than that (same with UPS). Wasted pretty much a whole day waiting. Wish UPS would deliver on Saturday when they mess up.
Actually, all of the warranty stock at the stores will (obviously) currently be brand new (they seed the warranty channel at the same time, so they're ready for exchanges). Nothing wrong with taking a factory replacement, rather than getting the entire retail box (especially if all of the day one retail skus are already sold out).
I'd leave it up to Apple support / the store manager as to how they source the replacement, provided you can walk in and do the swap right away.
mill bet he and another 40 UPS/FedEx drivers have been delivering all day.
not 1 store in ALL of GTA has any iPhone 13 nor IPad Mini in 256GB storage of any colour available!!! 🤬🤬😠😞😔
PayDay came late thus I couldn’t preorder. Kind of a blessing I guess $128net gained from a stock Friday, so.
I just want to upgrade, so 1 more week to join the pre-party wait game then the 13 party.
enjoy your new devices everyone
Got mine this morning at 11:30am from Markville Mall. It was pretty quick.
Nice! I managed to reserve a silver 13 Pro 512GB for pick up tomorrow at Markville. I originally had a graphite Pro Max on pre-order but didn't want to wait until the end of October for delivery.
I'm guessing these aren't "rejects" or anything? It's just very unbelievable for me to have found stock. The only stock I'm seeing now for pick up are two gold 13 Pro's.
Went to my local apple store to pick it up today. Hopefully th camera is good enough to keep it.
Has anyone in the Vancouver area been able to get 5G? I called Bell and they told me I needed a new SIM, so I picked one up. I figured there probably isn't 5G around West Van--but even today in Downtown, my phone still showed "LTE"...
I’ve heard it relies heavily on having the higher ranging TELUS/Bell/Rogers plans ($65 and upwards) to have access to 5G, but you may also want to check your cellular data settings, and worst case scenario, maybe just set up your number through an esim rather than a physical sim? Just ideas…
Ahh thanks. I did ask the Bell retail person if my plan was 5G compatible and he did assure me it was when giving me the new SIM. Might have to give them a call…it’s never simple with these companies unfortunately.
Apple shipped my phone yesterday (sunday morning) and on their website it say I'm supposed to receive it on october 6, but when I click the link "track order" the ups site still says the tracking number is incorrect and can't be found. Normal after almost 2 days?
