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

Friday is going to be so tough for me. At least I know my iPhone won’t be delivered until 6pm. I’ll leave work by 5 so I can be ready! I have a bunch of meetings and interviews so I can’t take Friday off. 😑

Ahhh! It's ok! Will wait for your return here. Hopefully, it's going to be a chill day for you. Look at you attending interviews. I remember when you were looking for a new job as a Project Manager. Making Big Moves over here. I see!

For me Tuesday is going to be tough because I have to go to this stupid Exhibition to attend a conference so I know I'll be busy attending the event all day long. I'm so mad about that lol. But the good thing is it should be done in the afternoon (expected). Hopefully, I don't come back with catching up with 50 pages behind.

Dang, you don't mess around!

ZERO games. I stay real 🙈

Wow, would you look at that. Over 8,100 posts and the party has only just started.

Unless @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ gets her tracking number, I won’t be able to sleep.

You missed my post that I posted earlier this morning

Part of Wave 1 Both iPhones. See below. Thank you!

Anyone buying a thunderbolt cable just because even though you have no products that use it?

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

WTH I just upgraded to UPS mychoice premium and my stupid delivery options didn’t change at all.

Could it be because the phone is still in China?

It could be. I wouldn't mess around with the UPS App until it's in the States. I normally call on Thursday and get everything checked off with no hassle.

I wanted to buy it just for bragging rights. Would that count?

It's this one right? What can I use it for on my iPhone?

No one has left Zhengzhou. All iPhones are currently in China.

How do you know your iPhone won’t be delivered until 6pm?

I want to select (change) the 2-hour confirmed delivery window, but the only two options are 1:45pm-3:45pm or no preference. I am working from home on Friday, but have a personal appointment at 2:00pm. I may have to reschedule…

UPS will not be able to commit to any window of delivery that day. Their excuse will be the “higher than normal volume”. Although MyChoice may say you’ll get to dictate a window, the reality is that they have an out from meeting that. Just trying to help manage expectations.

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Any guess on when we’re going to have movement out of ZhengZhou? I’m going to guess Tuesday. What do you think?

I don't think it will be Tuesday. It's too far out. Either later tonight or on Monday. Wave 2 could be on Tuesday tho since they are one day behind. Stay tuned.

Why are you stuck in ZhengZhou with your phone?

Thanks! But are they Apple Standard Quality?

The real wave numbers won’t set until we get departure scans from ZhengZhou IMO.

The IPhones don't support that standard. Maybe for macs but way out of the speeds announced for the iPhone

You can take adavantage of the USB 3 10gb data speeds of the Pro models with that for sure since the included one only allows USB 2.0 speeds.

I know in the past the phones usually go from Zhengzhou to alaska, but I think they will be stopping in hong kong this year. There’s 2 flights scheduled out of Hong Kong to Alaska, both ups flights, one in 12 hours one in 14 hours.

That's a good prediction. I was hoping our iPhones would be going to Shanghai, China but they didn't. We will find out soon.

I remember my Apple Watch S7 stopping by in Osaka, Japan. That was so cool to track the journey.

This is correct. I would rely on UPS drivers. They are going to be very busy that day.

It’ll be tomorrow US time. Tuesday for China time. I think @FlightLevel310 didn’t spot UPS departures until Tuesday China time based on currently filed flight plans.

I ordered one from Amazon and posted a pic of it earlier.

It would be nice if Wave 1 and Wave 2 get out of China together. I've also seen that happen before. We will know soon.

Gotcha, thanks for the feedback.

I miss the days when you could sign waiver to release package without signature.

I got this charger for the phone. I had their TB3 for an iPad Pro I traded for a MacBook Pro m1. I gave that cord to my mom who has an Samsung phone.View attachment 2266426

Yes sir! I saw that one. It does look nice.
