Other 🇺🇸 USA - Apple.com - iPhone 15/Plus/Pro/Pro Max/ US Pre-Orders, Orders, and Delivery Status Thread

[darkmatter343]

Seriously? I mean if that's the way it works then good, I just figured anyone who was invited to the showcasing like iJustine etc would be given one of their choosing. It's good, but also weird that Apple would make people like MKHD order one if they want one..

Everyone’s worst nightmare here. 🤐

I am still seeing some Pro Max's available for pick up on launch day or after here and there at my local stores. Will have to be flexible on storage and color.

For those with stores close by, store route may be better than ordering for delivery for getting one sooner.

I'm excited to hang out with you all! I don't know how to do the tracking once we get tracking info. (Don't even know when that normally happens.) But I'll be here watching. I'm glad I stuck it out with my original color choice of the blue titanium but I also think the natural looks great. I jus like dark colors more and black just seemed boring especially since I'll be keeping it in a case anyways... For those that have done this before when does apple usually ship launch day iPhones for UPS deliveries and do I have to sign for it?

 

[alexcue]

Accessories ordered with the iPhone show as shipped. UPS My Choice doesn’t show anything so far. Order placed :02.

Accessories at least here in LA come from local shipping... god knows what company Apple is using or FedEx. UPS My Choice won't show anything until Sunday or Monday at least from past pre-orders for the iPhone.

I just ordered 15 pro natural titanium 256gb at 1153 central time. Delivery time-October 4-9th.

 

[chrisdazzo]

Ordered at 4 minutes after the hour, 256GB Pro in Natural Titanium. Due for delivery 09/22. Switching from wifi to 5G helped the app pre-order page load properly. Sucks to see so many people got shafted this year with pre-orders

 

[Rubenfer]

Really? When did you order ?

:06

Get ready for a roller coaster of a ride Tracking planes is a hobby of mine. This'll be a hoot as always. We supposedly should start getting tracking numbers Sunday'ish...then the fun begins of figuring out which plane you're on etc.

Check out the first message from @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ with all kinds of info. It has lots of good tips for tracking and joining the fun

I almost forgot about that because this thread is so massive already.... not like I woke up early today or anything...

Do you guys remember the iPhone 5s?

On the eve of iPhone 15 pre-orders.

You could NOT pre-order this iPhone. If you wanted in on launch day, you had to go to a retail store and wait in line.

So bizarre!

I remember waiting outside of the mall and spending the whole night. It was cold and scary. I was 2nd in line and ended up picking an iPhone 5s Gold 32GB.

Oh yeah, that was a real mess. Everyone is saying that this per-order was a crap shoot. They must not have been around for the 3GS-6 when it was a real struggle and hassle to start. No one of this "get ready" it was "lol, good luck in trying to get the main Apple page to load."

 

[hovscorpion12]

I'm 100% sure all the big YT's will be getting whatever colour and storage size they want on day one. No way is iJustine having to wait until Oct, even if they post differently.

Facts!

 

[Apple_Tiger]

Well it now show up under “For You”

It wasn't just that. It was ...

1) good luck getting to the apple store page
2) good luck adding the thing to your cart
3) good luck that AT&T's servers don't melt when they validate your account
4) good luck on the final order submission

Yeah those were the days....

 

[AndrewR23]

Coulda saw Natural Ti being the most popular. Its the color featured on every ad, etc. Same thing with Blue, purple the years before. Nothing will rival the white iphone 4 anticipation.

 

[ck3801]

My credit card flagged it as fraud. Called my bank and solved it. Hopefully I don’t lose my launch day delivery.

 

[GeneticBloom]

Going back to this morning’s melee… Do we know if there were any consistencies in those that experienced delays? Ex: was everyone who couldn’t get anything to load also iUP peeps that had their orders pre-approved and ready to rock in advance or were there some going to the store for first time with no configs saved? Not that it matters now, just curious.

Trade-ins maybe? My saved pre-order wasn't going through so I went to go try to start a new order. Choosing the phone worked fine but it bugged out when I got to the trade-in selection.

Once I tried on Safari my saved pre-order worked fine.

Is yours still at “Order Placed” or has it moved to “Processing”?

Yep, and if it’s a little further away checking for in store pick up in the morning is also always an option… they get restocks every couple of days…

 

[AnOracle]

For the record (if anyone is trying to find patterns), I did the iUP and trading in my iPhone 14 Pro. I pre-preordered. I had a session expired error when I was let in to the store at 5:03am, but I tried it again and it worked perfectly and got the email confirmation at 5:04am.

This person gets it.

I work in manufacturing and have a factory in China. It would be hard for Apple to have all of the phones here in the U.S. for launch day. It takes about 4-6 weeks for a ship to come from China to the U.S.

For Apple launching iPhone, the first few batches are always airfreight via UPS WMS or so call 4PL. The shipping labels are all generated at sorting warehouse in China(or India for this year), you should see in next few days, how your packages are going though the ports and custom clearance house, then overnight to Alaska before going through UPS distribution hubs. It normally takes about 4 to 5 days from original warehouse to here for delivery. This is not a normal industrial shipping container methods via ocean freight that will take 4 to 6 weeks.

 

[nikhsub1]

Got both mine coming the 22nd! Pro Max Natural 256GB for me and 15 Pro black 256 for my daughter. Those are through Apple, ordered at 5AM. I had to call ATT to order my wife's phone since their site is always broken and today wa no exception. That one is the same as my daughter's, 256GB Pro black, also coming the 22nd.

 

[Xoterin]

Everyone who got promised a launch day delivery. Feel lucky and blessed. Even iJustine couldn’t secure one.

This just proves no one has the power against Apple and this thread is too powerful. We were able to help each other out and rely on this strong community together. As a team! As a family!
