I have 3 on order. All 13 - 128 in Red, Blue and Pink. All are preparing to ship. Coming UPS but UPS limits what I can see when I use my phone number to track by reference (eta: only one of the three are currently showing in track by reference). This is new according to a banner on the UPS site. Bummer.

You should be able to start seeing the scans once it makes the moving.
 
I’m canceling my case order, this phone is to sexy to hide in a case, flexing it without a case like @TheYayAreaLiving 😂

I told you!!! Why hide the beauty with a case. You just have to make sure you baby the heck out of it. Straight up.

Install screen protectors front and back and you are golden!!!

Wait! is that picture photoshopped?

I can’t wait for Friday!
 
Expect the same list of departure scans on Saturday/Sunday. As time passes by the scheduled flight times will start showing up. I will make sure to hit my internal sources by tomorrow or on Sunday morning to obtain any information on the departure of the cargo planes which will be carrying our lovely iPhones.

90% sure, Cargolux Airlines International will be carrying our new shiny iPhones. One thing is for sure Booeing 747 will be carrying out our iPhones. It's a massive cargo plane.

Destination: CGO > ANC (International Airport)

I’m not sure that’s true this time. I’ve tracked many packages by reference and I’ve always been able to see the full tracking number and some detail (weight, etc) at this point before. This is different than it’s been in the past for me. I know I’ll be able to see the scans once my address registers via MyChoice but sometimes that doesn’t happen until the pallet gets split up in the US. I hope I’m wrong!!

Completely understand where you are coming from. However, I would highly suggest you sign up for the MyChoice account so you have full access to your account. Your package is still very new.

The pallet gets split from Kentucky, Louisville towards the main destination. Around this time the scans stop showing up. This will probably happen between Tuesday and Wednesday or even a little later in next week. They will show back up on Thursday and everyone will get a shipped notification.

Apple doesn't want UPS to show the routes scans. Because Apple doesn't want customers bombarding UPS with info on the packages scans. Around this time the iPhones are already in state and UPS has the control to not show the tracking.

I hope I'm right. If not I'm making a phone call to UPS International HQ. Will try to get in touch with UPS Exec.

I give their Photoshop job 8/10, with the dead giveaways being the lens protrusions, the size of the lip around the camera bump, and the placement of the main button. At least it might give us a vague idea how the color would look in person. I’m anxious to see it in review videos next week, see how it looks and shifts in the light, etc.
Yep it’s a mockup. This is the guy that was correct about the Apple Watch S7 not being flat edged.

Yes, I know all that and have had MyChoice set up for years :). I’ve been watching preorders since the iMac G5 - the OG preorder, lol. This is specifically about the banner that states UPS is NOT showing as much information for track by reference any longer and that it looks different than it has in the past. I hope it hasn’t changed completely and the scans will show.

Praying our scans will show up or else everyone is going to have a major panic attack in here! :eek::eek:
 
I saw one post about preparing to ship…same here at 2230PDT. I looked back on photos/posts from last year and by 0800 the day after (10/16/20 To 10/17/20) tracking by UPS reference number was available to most. So first thing on wake up tomorrow - refresh…refresh…refresh. 😄
