You have to install the update or you can’t restore your backup/transfer data wirelessly between the phones. Both phones have to be on the latest available update.
The rule of thumb is that your if you are restoring your new phone with your current phone's latest backup, the backup file and the new phone have to be on the same OS. So if you update your current phone to iOS17, then you would have to update your new phone once you get it before you can restore it.
Some skip the initial activation of the phone and either download the iOS update through WiFi, or they put the phone in restore mode and use (now) Finder on MacOS to download an update the new phone. After it's updated, you can than restore from the backup made whilst on iOS17.

Before the pre order i was deciding rather to do delivery or in store pick up. Im glad I went with in store pick up this time around. I thought of having it delivered to work but then i would miss the tracking.
I bought a “USB 4” enclosure which turned out to be just a Thunderbolt enclosure. The good thing is now I have an extra Thunderbolt cable, but you do not need a Thunderbolt cable to get USB 3 speeds on iPhone 15 Pro. A USB C 3.1 cable is good enough and I think Amazonbasics sells some.
Hey all! Canadian thread is pretty dry and has no interesting flight insights for our delivery. Could we please get some insight on our flights based on this?:
Two different camps on this one. Some are swearing that once in the States we should still be able to do a Pickup Hold like years before, but it seems Apple is telling UPS to not allow this. Fingers crossed that the former will hold true for another year.
Too narrow of a front display, but the hinge is quite exceptional. Pixel Fold is still in beta lol
It looks like Canadian iPhones are coming from Shanghai, China.
Is it because they have a SIM card Tray in their iPhones? So it’s coming from a different iPhone production assembly plant?

Last year i did had the option to request a hold at ups cc even though my iPhone still was in China.
Must have cleared Chinese Customs
What are the weight details on your shipment? Could this be an Apple Watch? If weight is not .4kgs, then it's probably not an iPhone. Would be interesting though if phones are being made elsewhere in China other than Foxconn ZhengZhou.
Edit (2024 PDT): I'm catching up and I see this may be some relation to the Canadian PO Thread and maybe SIM vs non-Sim phones...sorry.

We decided to ditch AT&T and go to T-Mobile on Friday afternoon after I had pre-ordered so I had to cancel... I'm very impatiently waiting for my phone to be able to be ported so I can re-pre order. Somehow my Apple Store hasn't sold out of the config I want but I feel like its going to happen before tomorrow morning when I should be able to port... 
I was there in 2016 and it’s changed so much since then! Can’t believe I forgot about dune bashing in the desert! Not for those with a weak stomach! Much fun!
I like the way you think! LOL
Mine was iPhone 2G then

Good luck to you, what config are you trying to get? I’m in a similar boat but holding onto my preorder and Apple Support says I might be able to modify it at pickupWe decided to ditch AT&T and go to T-Mobile on Friday afternoon after I had pre-ordered so I had to cancel...

Interesting…. I think the last two years I haven’t had the option on MC to choose CC. I had to call to change it.
Pro Blue Titanium 256GB. I considered raw when I originally ordered but decided not to cave to peer pressure. Now I have no option at all really. They're even out of 1TB Raw Titanium ones! (Not like I was willing to pay that much just for a color, though...)
I like the concept but I am not a fan of the long Dynamic Island on the inside. I would also want it to be as thin as the Honor Magic V2 and not as thick as the Fold 5.
Calling might work. Last time i tried that said due to restrictions they couldn’t do it.
Check out the Honor Magic V2. When folded, it is as thin as an iPhone 14 Pro Max.
Yea don't think you'll see a foldable iPhone until Timmy can scream into a camera and say the worlds thinnest foldable ever!!
Ah that makes more sense then. It was a real curveball.
