Ok, Team Store Pickup - we’re the Road Trippers this year. We have no idea how our iPhones will travel, but we need to be ready when our pickup alerts come in.

We don’t need a lot of luggage, a basic tote or day pack will work for us. We only need to make sure our cars are ready and that we are provisioned properly for our (hopefully brief) time in line.

We have time to consider. Choose wisely!

There’s a few of us on Team Store Pickup this year!!

I’ll be here supporting and enjoying the ride as well - I love all things travel!

+1 for Team Store Pickup . First time doing store pick up primarily because the UPS CC where I used to pickup launch products in the past has been closed for pickup for some times now. I don’t wanna wait all day on Friday….

Same, I moved to
Another city and the CC center opens at 10 where I used to live it opened at 7:30. I did Apple store pick up this year
 
Has anyone ever purchased the Otterbox Figura Series cases from Apple?

Just noticed them online today. I like this one:

UPS delivers late in the day in my neighborhood. I looked into redirecting for pick up and it is about $6. But what I can't confirm is if I do this will it be available for pickup earlier in the day. I would imagine UPS delivers to our local UPS store earlier than they do for residential delivery. May have to call the local UPS store to see if they can answer that question.

Welcome! 🚙🎉

First time in-store pickup for myself and others here. Yes, apparently it’s inconsistent with the UPS CC depending on your area. I don’t have time for waiting all day for a driver on the off chance the CC decides not to allow pickups! Let’s goooo!
 
I pre-ordered mine pretty late in the day (September 17, 3pm CST). I chose the graphite 1TB Pro Max. The e-mail I received says the phone will be here between Oct. 18 - Oct. 25. That'll give me plenty of time to find a case and read what's being written about the phone in this community.

Anyone who ordered 1tb sierra blue sim free pro max still in processing or pfs? Mine’s still in Processing. I did set mine to be delivered. Lol

In my experience, if you redirect to a UPS store, it actually delays your package one to two days. If you redirect it to a UPS CC (Cust center), it can be picked up same day as delivery was scheduled. A lot of areas are different though. It’ll give you a warning when trying to redirect if it has the potential to delay your package or not.

UPS Stores will have certain times that the trucks come through each day. A quick call should tell you how soon you can pickup from there.

Thanks! But I’m looking for one like that but has the privacy feature too (so the screen is blacked out if I’m on the Metro and someone is trying to watch my screen).

Every time one of you post another photo of the sequoia green Apple case I get sad. I LOVE the color but it isn’t protective enough for my klutzy self.
 
Ordered the iPhone 13 Pro 256 GB Sierra Blue with Abyss Blue silicone case. I had a Spigen case for my iPhone X (from which I am upgrading). This one looks nice:
