Just another friendly reminder:

If you have not purchased an Apple Polishing Cloth. I would highly recommend you to get one. Best $19.00 USD you will ever spend. Just skip a lunch or something.

I have more than 10+ unopened Apple Polishing boxes ready to save my Apple devices.

It’s a necessity for iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max models.

Say No to #SmudgeGate.

You mean from the my choice account portal?
Tried that already (plus i cant use any of the online authentication methods because the info they have not match the vendor) so i had to have my my choice account manually activated via a pin they sent in the mail.
That vendor info this is just an error saying that their pin text messages are down. It asked me to answer 3 questions about the last address I had, etc. But yeah if it asked you for the pin, then you might have to wait on that, hopefully before Friday.

I see bent titanium frames in the SmudgeGate photos, but my eyes might be playing tricks on me

Let me get one! 😉

Trust me! You will be thankful. It's rated as ⭐️ Certified Gold Standard. Come on.. it's only $19.00.

I remember my first MacBook I bought came with a black cleaning cloth. Not gonna lie it was pretty good. Apple should start including them in the box like the old days but for phones.

I remember that. The good ol days from Apple. It felt premium. I still have mine for my MBA and MBP.

Purchase and confirmation received 5 mins after store opened for my Pro Max. Both of them still say Preparing for Shipment. I feel like I was on the early end of orders, shouldn’t it have changed by now? (No trade in, just bought fully unlocked).

Pretty sure a tracking number populated for you. Check the UPS app with the phone number associated with the order.

Yeah back in 2021.. when I posted the image of my Apple Polishing cloths here. People were not happy with me. But hey! I reached out to the Apple Store and had them reserve it for me. So I did all the footwork. Apple Store reps told me they don’t have such thing. I told them, yes you do. I told them to bring all of them out and they did. They were looking at me funny. They thought I was joking when I told them I would buy them all.

Awkward silence moment 🙈

This is ridiculous, Apple pulled a Nvidia and did not have enough Pro Max stocked up. First time I've been not able to pick up a PM on launch day. I'll just wait and see what happens later during the week. No pick up options in Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Iowa and Minnesota.
Likely launch day stock available that morning.
