I will never buy that case. Apple lost a lot of case customers.

Dang! Last time you got locked out from your UPS account. Trouble with the UPS account again? Try calling them lol. Remember you called them last time and they were giving you a runaround. Telling you to leave us alone. I like CASETiFY. SMH!Yes, the XR served me well. But now I'm back to being a yearly upgrader again. I did fix UPS, but um ... now my UPS account is broken again right around this time of year (this is the kind of luck I have). So ... I'm in the same situation as before.
Hopefully I can get it fixed soon. If I can't do all the fun tracking again, at least I'll still enjoy all the commotion in here.
Honestly, I think the silicon cases were garbage as well. I usually have 3 or 4 cases that I rotate on my iPhone out of boredom, and I had one of the Apple silicon cases. And the first time I dropped it, the corner ripped entirely off and it almost cracked my screen. I've never had a case fall apart that easily from a drop. These look to be even cheaper. No thanks. I'm back to using Spigen cases. CASETiFY also makes great cases.
Be thankful you don't live outside the US. You all were able to do so much more in your preordering process. Here in Italy, all you could do was to save the configuration. When I placed my order 10 minutes after the hour I still had to reselect most everything but my initial delivery date remained the launch day, the 22nd. For some unexplained reason, my order is now stuck in a suspended status with no shipping date. Nearly the same thing happened last year when my launch day delivery date was pushed back to late October. Last year I sent Tim Cook an email and was contacted by executive support in Ireland who helped push the date up a few days. Ugh.
It's not that they were bullies, it's that they were incompetent bullies. The best kind!
I will try and call them tomorrow. Maybe I'll have better luck. I've just had have a lot of social media projects for potential high profile clients lately. I'm trying to make doing what I love a full-time job.
The silicone cases can be a bit fragile, but I prefer them because they are very "grippy". I wear a cargo shorts often and I carry my iPhone in the leg pocket. My phone rarely falls out of my pocket when using a silicon case. The worst case that I ever bought was the clear plastic one from Apple. That thing was so slick that my phone would fall out of my pocket multiple times a day.Yes, the XR served me well. But now I'm back to being a yearly upgrader again.

Ordered! Cable should be here on Monday! In hindsight probably didn't need to wake up at 5am to order the cable but wanted to join y'all in the fun!
Bad news: my charging cable was delayed
I tried out the apple silicon case for my a iPhone 12 Pro and actually really liked it.Yes, the XR served me well. But now I'm back to being a yearly upgrader again.

It started to show some wear and tear quite literally after about 10 month. The lower edge started to peel off but I was lucky enough that after a visit to the Apple Store I got a new one as a replacement (same color even though the color was already discontinued) and that one lasted me again for pretty much 10 month…
now I am on a interim case from spigen…
and counting the days till my new phone arrives and I can get rid of that case and I have actually started to go naked at home…
I used to love spigen cases (was my go to brand) and that’s why I bought hat clear case but the one I bought and use right now feels terrible… the buttons are awfully hard to push…
You are getting it before you get your new iPhone. I’m sure you can also easily pick it up at an Apple Store.Bad news: my charging cable was delayed
What are you going to do if you get the same rep you got last year from customer support? 🤔It's not that they were bullies, it's that they were incompetent bullies. The best kind!

Not getting a new iPhone this year
the cable is for my Anker charger I keep in my bag. You're right though I can probably visit an Apple Store next week and pick one up
That's strange. The Spigen case that I had on my 14 PM was great. I hope the quality isn't weird as I just ordered another Spigen case for my 15 PM which should be here tomorrow (or today rather ... stupid insomnia).
I’m on vacation atm but as soon as I get home, I’m not even going to open the Finewoven case & wallet I ordered. They’re just going straight back to Apple! They look like garbage from everything I’ve seen. Got a Pitaka case on the way, which is what I have now, and I love it!
I have a tracking number in my UPS app from Apple (AI) that is on the way from China with a delivery date of Friday 9/22
I placed individual orders for a 15 Pro Max 256GB at 5:03 PDT in multiple colors so I can't identify which one but good to know one is already en route before Apple updates the orders with the actual tracking numbers

UPS is now showing my tracking number. Origin scan in ZhengZhou, CN! THE ADVENTURE STARTS!
Let’s goooo!! This is earlier than last year when it only started Sunday afternoon. Nice!
