Finally got home after a very long day at Six Flags.
My FineWoven case delivered and my first impressions of are that it does have a rain coat like feel to it but more on the soft side. It makes a vinyl like sound when I rub my fingers back and forth across it.
As far as quality goes, only time will really be able to tell that. It may hold up fine or it may teardown quickly.
It definitely is inferior to the leather cases and does not feel like it is worth $60.
I think had Apple introduced this alongside the leather instead of replacing it, at a lower price, people probably wouldn't dislike it as much.
Also, did I miss anything important in the thread? Too many pages to read through.
I did receive my iPhone tracking number early this morning.
I have the same issue, I ordered at 5:02 am Friday, have had my reference screen since last night, so I’m pretty sure I’m wave 1, but nothing pops up on UPS my choice. Keep us updated on what UPS says please.So. Quick update. It seems my theory is correct. I am able to pull up the label via the reference search. But it does not show up under my choice. Seems I will need to go call UPS and have them explain themselves
.
Something about purchasing a hub...which I did but it never worked..so we just use the app without the voice...one day when Im very bored..I will look into itWhy can't you add it?
2nd verdict has been made. The final results are out from different audience groups.Folks! A ruling had been made. Final results out.

I think all the colors are stunningly gorgeous. But my favorite will be Natural Titanium.
I agree...siri turns on and off my lights through Lutron...and I love itI haven't had that problem. She turns on & off lights, locks doors, opens & closes the gate with no issues 95% of the time for me (thus far, I may have jinxed myself)
Lucky me. i fit in the box. im 240 miles from Albuquerque and 240 away from Fort Worth, so Only have been in an Apple Store when I cancelled my order for a Jet Black iPhone 7 and got the gray instead.And this might just be me having an old man yells at clouds moment -- but unless you don't have an Apple Store nearby, then I don't agree with bogging up UPS Stores and Customer Service Centers by changing to pickup delivery. If you have an Apple Store nearby, and can't be home for delivery, then schedule a pickup time at the Apple Store.
Have you ever seen Ice Airport :Alaska on the Smithsonian channel? Pretty cool to see some of what goes on at Anchorage.You all are really going to think I’m a nerd. So I watch BigJetTV, Jerry just happened to be in Anchorage a couple years ago. So I got to watch my cargo flight, and track it at the same time.
So my MyQ Garage opener has WiFi but not Bluetooth connectivity - so I had to by an Internet gateway piece of hardware from Chamberlain that plugs into my Router. It gives the Garage Door opener an IP address that is only visible in your WiFi network.Something about purchasing a hub...which I did but it never worked..so we just use the app without the voice...one day when Im very bored..I will look into it
Ive got 1 in wave 1 and the other in wave 2. Both blue PM256 ordered 2 minutes apart cause the caffeine hadn’t kicked in at pre pre order. Next year I’ll Pre-pare better for the pre pre order 🤪Expect an activity to hit later tonight. Not sure if they are going to Shanghai, China. Too early to determine..

I’ve also made sure that my UPS information is 100% correct, name, number, address, etc…
Excellent- You get to enjoy the journey being on Wave 1 and Wave 2. Happy and safe travelsIve got 1 in wave 1 and the other in wave 2. Both blue PM256 ordered 2 minutes apart cause the caffeine hadn’t kicked in at pre pre order. Next year I’ll Pre-pare better for the pre pre order 🤪
9/16 is Wave 1.How do you tell if you are wave 1 or wave 2?
Waiting for full tracking to show in My Choice. I only see partial info via reference number at the moment.9/16 is Wave 1.
9/17 is Wave 2.
Check the Origin Scan date. What does it say?
Thanks for gifting me a tracking number. You’re the best! You’ve got it!Woo hoo! Congratulations! You got your tracking number. Now can you bless me with having a good iPhone 15 Pro Max battery life, please? I want to be just like you. 🙃
Excellent post. Lots of good detail and spectulation. Thank you!To the Wave Discussion and some questions about who is where or how the waves are even "made" - I would call it "educated speculation" based on at least 3-4 years or pre-order history and how some of us have tracked these flights. Sorry, @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ - not trying to contradict you, just trying to add some (or a lot) of detail to help answer the questions. ☺️
All our iPhones can't leave on the same plane at the same time, so they naturally must go out in waves or batches.
Saturday scans were centered around common label creation, depart facility, arrived facility, departed, etc. And, we thought since those phones with history like that are at the front of the pack, they might depart mainland China today. But that doesn't seem to have happed YET (it's just about 2pm Sunday as I'm typing)...so they could leave today.
The scans today were label creations and nothing past that and they were at about 3 different times in the morning (China Time). We haven't seen them leave FoxConn and enter the bonded area for inspection/customs at Zhengzhou yet. So the assumption is that the phones getting scanned today are Wave 2 and possibly Wave 3.
There is a possibility that these waves, as we have them labeled now, may leapfrog ahead or even break up, depending on how they get scanned. Eventually, waves may be renamed as we get departure flights out of China. So we may end up starting to say we're on xxx UPS Flight, or we're on the HHMM Flight to Tokyo or Anchorage, or Seoul. We've even seen later flights flights start catching earlier flights...planes breaking down in Alaska and delaying transport.
They all end up at the UPS World Hub at Louisville. Some phones will and must get there earlier than others. If you have a 9/22 delivery date, I think we have mostly seen that Apple drives UPS to meet that commitment and even speed up some later delivery dates to make it on launch day, too.
Hi 🙋🏻♂️Wave 1 crew 🙋♀️
Dude, I HATE white but this year's white is not really white and contrasted with the Ti band I think it's the best color this year. That's what I got. Don't be one of the sheep. Be the sheep herder. 😉I got iphone Pro Max 512GB White Titanium. I think I got 9/22 because no one wanted white? But it also looks like they don’t have as many in White because it slipped quickly to November delivery.
Haha. I'm one of the Apple OG's.Woo hoo! Member of Wave 1. I remember you from last year or the year before I think? Glad you are here with us. Happy and safe travels .
How are you rocking @mac.com email? Respect!!!!! King status. 👑
