You learn something new here every day honestly.

Have you been to Shanghai? I heard their downtown is very futuristic. Is that true?

I have been to Shanghai...quite a few times...quite mind-blowing..Truth is I have always been to the Eastern part of China and always knew it to be 12 hours ahead of NY WHEN I have been there. I will never forget arriving in NYC as a young adult and being mind blown by the buildings...then as a 30 something being mind blown by Shanghai...Dubai tops them all (I have not been to Kuala Lumpur)...

That hasn’t been true in the past and I don’t think it will be true this time.

How does the transfer work if the iPhone 15 arrives with iOS16 and my iPhone has iOS17. Does it mean updating the iPhone 15 before transferring?

 

[Lakersfan74]

iJustine will call the iPhone 15 pretty, beautiful no less than 20 times in her review vid

 

[thatappleguytoday]

Nice! Have you seen the iPhone 15 Pro ad? I posted here earlier?

I missed it, but Timmy could say here's the 14 Pro Max again and I'd upgrade lol

Very nice! I want to travel internationally. Dubai is definitely on the top list. Planning on going there next yeah. Hopefully, It actually happens this time.

I actually love the dynamic island ☺️



I think last time I needed a sim tool I used an earring, lol.

I can’t wait to have the dynamic island, I love the way it looks.

I had high expectations for the 15, because all the stories I read said that it was going to have this, that , and the other. they said it was going to be a home run etc....

But it turned out to be a nothing burger. The only thing I got out of their presentation was that the new 15 was going to have a faster chip, new colors, and a titanium body. And a USB port that some think is a step backwards, even if the EU requires them.

I was not impressed with the new colors or the watch bands made with recycled materials.

There was not enough meat in the sandwich to get me to bite, and pay $1,000 for a new phone,

To add insult to injury, I bought a call option on Apple stock hoping that it would close about $182.50. I bought the option at 178.65, and I expected the stock to rise after hearing all the noise around the presentation. But, the stock dropped $2 Tuesday and it dropped as low as 173. My option expired worthless.

I'll stay with my 13 maybe there will be something better next year.

At least IOS 17 sounds like it will be a winner, and it's a free upgrade.

So your money is gone but you still have an iPhone 13. Maybe you should’ve skipped the options and just been happy with the meager upgrades of the 15 Pro?

Flight Tracking Update - 9:30PM CDT

Our plane is over Alaska and will be starting its descent into Anchorage soon. Wheels down estimated at 7:08PM AKDT. We are planning for a fuel stop and crew swap.

Our next flight will be Anchorage to Seoul. This should be on the same aircraft. It has an estimated block out time of 8:43PM AKDT. This may be pushed slightly later to turn the aircraft around in Anchorage. It is scheduled to arrive in Seoul at 10:06PM KST (translates to 8:06AM CDT).

I wouldn't worry over these flights too much. The next leg to Zhengzhou should depart around 12:30AM KST (10:30AM CDT). We probably won't get a flightplan on this flight, so look for it in the morning on FlightRadar24. That flight to Zhengzhou should arrive around 12:15PM CDT. Then the real fun begins. Expect loading to occur and scans to start around the 1-4PM CDT range. This next flight will likely be to Seoul. I'd expect that to depart around 3-4PM CDT.

Expect an update tomorrow morning at some point. Have a good night!

 

[MinimeJer05]

Your tracking still hasn't been assigned? You've been waiting all day.

Right?! I’ve got a 15 Pro Max, a 15 and a Series 9 Watch on the way and not a single tracking number.

 

[Wolfs]

Trying so hard to get excited for the Friday drop, but not having any tracking info is giving me anxiety. I’ve got an iPhone on launch day ever since the iPhone 6.

I’m sure everything will arrive on time and I’m just worried about nothing.

Time to go back to UPS app and refresh 20 more times 😂

Because that will for sure cure your anxiety

Travel is the only thing money can buy that makes you richer 😂. PS Fun fact 48 states in USA (have to sleep there..no passing by) I have learned so much...Enough to know I want to live on Miami Beach 🙏🇺🇸💛🙏

I don’t know how many times I say this. But until Apple officially announces something EVERYTHING is to be taken with a mountain of salt.

Have we seen @pilotpat?

What if Timmy says here's Apple Polishing Cloth 2. Would you upgrade then? 😅

 

[cpatrick08]

Anyone regret going from the Pro to the Pro Max; does it feel too big?

I had the 13 & 14 P4o Max and am going to the 15 Pro as it feels too big.

 

[CodeSpyder]

Thank you for your honest review. It sounds like a compelling upgrade to me.

I think I'm the wrong person to answer that because I will always favor Apple's latest iPhone device. Hopefully, once the reviews are out they will convince you and make it a compelling upgrade for you.

I have no say. I already got roasted and beat down by talking good about the Apple Polishing Cloth.

The 3nm chip is worth the upgrade.

If they come in colors, yes.

During the setup it’ll ask if you want to install the latest update.

 

[hungryteresa]

I need to find my sim tray tool to remove my sim card don't want to send that back in the trade in

A paperclip works pretty well if you can't find it!
