Other 🇺🇸 USA - Apple.com - iPhone 15/Plus/Pro/Pro Max/ US Pre-Orders, Orders, and Delivery Status Thread
Update: *No Update* 🙃😂15+ Black. confirmation email @ 8:10 am. Purchased outright. Still "order in progress" - Apple card not charged. 🤣
Panic over, found it under Trash, I was pretty sure I had not touched it but obviously not
Can I blame it on being blonde lol. We had other things going on this morning so who knows. But thankfully all is good. Looking forward to the traveling starting this weekend.Now I also remember the comment about the phone being sent via ship rather than air. Could these phone already be stateside for US??
I immediately got a text and later an email asking me to authorize the purchase. Pretty aggressive.
I am now at PTS for a Natural 15 Pro 512gb w/ delivery of the 22nd.
Keep yourself busy. I work from home every Thursday only so its going to be a look week ahead.If it makes you feel better, my status bar only goes from Processing to Ready for Pickup since I’m doing Apple Store pickup. I’m already at processing which means I’m about to just be going a week without updates.
Id like to speculate that the ones going to stores, carriers, etc. are already here. The ones going to Apple I think would still be in China and awaiting a lift from UPS.Panic over, found it under Trash, I was pretty sure I had not touched it but obviously not

That also means less daily checking/less stress…look at it that way.
I used to do delivery and then intercept at UPS CC Hub. While it was a rush, in store pickup is a little more peaceful with less hassle for me.
Nonetheless, this thread is still one of the best places to be for the week between preorders and release day.
that BT is far from basic it is a beaut. same felt like I had to get the Apple store liquored up to get open 😆 🤣 scored the Natural Titanium Pro Max 9-22 😍
One of the downsides of having to do in store pickup is no movement/fun tracking until Friday morning when magically it's updated to "Ready for pickup"
Natural Pro Max 512 GB, lfg!

Keep in mind, everyone, that tracking may be tricky this year. Apple is increasing ocean cargo shipping. That can take over 20 days. If they did that for the iPhone 15, many devices are already in the states and there will be no movement until next Thursday. But, don't let that discourage the detective work! It's a blast!
Did anyone order a watch as well? What color combination did you go with? I think the starlight with clay band goes really well with the natural titanium
Woohoo! Happy for you! That seems to be the precious this year. No doubt you will love it.
We have our reasons. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I can’t take off work or work from home on the release day. I had a really tough time with UPS last year about getting my iPhone to be held at the correct facility so it wouldn’t be delayed. I paid extra money to have it be held. Then, on delivery day, it said someone other than myself picked up my package. For an hour I thought my phone had been stolen after I spent hours and extra money for it to get sent to the right facility so it wouldn’t get stolen off my porch.
So for me, I’m much happier knowing I can just leave work, go to the Apple Store, and it will be ready for me. Total peace of mind. Missing out on some fun/excitement is worth it to me to not have to go through something like last year again.
i got a natural titanium pro max and a pink series 9. gonna go with a clear case to show off the color.
I snagged an in store pickup preorder, never gotten one that early! So glad I don’t have to sit around worrying about ups all day.
I saw reporting, maybe here, that Apple was building up stock of the new products in California a few weeks in advance of the release.
Love Flighty! I work for an airline so i get to fly a lot.

I completely understand and I wasn't trying to knock anyone that chooses to go that route. That sounds likely a terribly stressful situation you went through. I'd hate that!
I meant it more in jest, how I enjoy the tracking process; but also can empathize for what you went through.
My 14 Pro Max 1TB was delivered a year ago on launch day and—today—my battery health is 96%. I use it every day. It rarely gets below 75% charge during the day. I also have it set to "Optimized Battery Charging". I put it on my wireless charger every night before I go to sleep.
