Preordered through amazon.de. ( pro max 512- silver) When i placed the order, it was saying release date 16.9. Now item is unavailable and in my order info it just says Not yet dispatched with no release date and just an info message "we'll notify you when item Is available".

Anyone else in same situation?
Same here, spoke via chat to amazon customer service today and they confirmed that the device will be available on 16th September and they will ship it accordingly to my pre-order.
So nothing to worry about.
 
Too bad. Someone familiar with charges on debit cards? My bank pulled most real credit cards in June and replaced them by debit cards. Order is in processing-to-ship state, but amount is still on hold and not booked. Any chance that this still fails?
If it’s preparing to ship, they are sure it’ll go through. They do a check just before that.

14 Pro 256 GB Spacial Black, Spain.

Order in Preparing to Ship on Apple, UPS app still doesn't show a new parcel. Made sure address and email perfectly match the order.

Couple more days...
 
Nothing here as well. In the last years I cannot remember that I had shipping details like ups mychoice data or anything. I have looked up most resources, but I think it’s going to be Wednesday or Thursday until something happens for my order.
 
Today my CC got charged with the iPhone (since friday it was only a reservation). This year the process is really strange. In the last years the money was always paid a few days after the iPhone was delivered. Maybe this has something to do with the early PFS.
 
My case has shipped, with DHL, and from Italy. Just as the M2 did.

My Payment has switched from marked to booked this morning. Still no details on tracking, which I need to reroute the package without delay
 
Apple has revised their pricing for Europeans.(see image) They felt that it wasn’t enough

iPhone 14 Pro Max 256GB in Deep Purple, ordered within 1-2 minutes from orders going live, ETA 16/9.

Upgrading from a 11 Pro Max (I usually upgrade every 3-4 years), bought Ink Leather Case + MagSafe Wallet (I know it's navy blue, but it's the best color still, since I love the apple leather case), and also AirPods Pro 2 w/ Memoji to upgrade from my first generation. Also pre-ordered the Shellrus sapphire screen protector, a bit expensive, but worth it IMHO being the only screen protector with a real 9H scratch resistant. I will use a cheap 5$ screen protector in the meanwhile until the shellers arrives (probably a few days after the iPhone).

Case & Wallet should arrive today (shipped & in delivery), phone on Friday 16/9 (still "preparing to ship"), AirPods w/ Memoji on 30th of September.

Debating if getting yearly w/ monthly payments AppleCare+ with theft & loss insurance, but I have 60 days to think about it so let's see. The big advantage is that I could keep the AppleCare rolling until I upgrade, even 3-4 years in.

Just got a message from Apple and DHL, my clear case has been delivered to my home, but I'm not at home right now. Maybe DHL delivered the case to one of my neighbors.
Will post a pic later.

My two clear Spigen placeholder cases (and screen protectors) from Amazon arrived yesterday. They are so tiny 😂 (coming from a 12PM) but the camera cutout is massive ! I’m so looking forward to this new camera. Going with the clear cases so I can enjoy the phone‘s new look for a while and until I decide on a case I really like.

Will wait with updating to iOS 16 until Wednesday I think.
