Yes sir! Best part it’s braided. It’s about time. It took Apple too long to implement that on the iPhones.
Got a tip for us?

The Tracking has to auto-populate in UPS MyChoice in order for you to see the whole thing. You can try calling UPS to get the full tracking number - providing the last 4 you have + other reference #s like Phone # and Order #. It's been taking folks a while to get through a cooperative UPS agent though.
We got braided cable
I haven't bought a cable in over 10 years since you could claim a new cable as long as your iPhone or iPad has a warranty.
Just for those who didn't know you could claim a new cable but you will have to return the old one 😁

good morning everyone! So happy to see one of my iPhones is on the move. It looks like this is the flight to Seoul.
UPS 173
landing in less than 45mins!
I called yesterday and the agent I spoke to was very nice. I got the full tracking info in under 10 minutes. The harder part is getting passed the automated BS.
Good catch! I’ve been looking for the flight
My 2013 Mercedes ML died a month ago. Well it didn't die, die... but started having misfires on the highway. The dealer wanted $10,000 to fix it, so I decided it was finally time for a new car.
Ended up with a Jeep Rubicon X 4xE* which came with wireless carplay on a 12.3 inch screen. Fantastic setup. I had been pining for carplay for years and am so excited to finally be able to use it!
Only wireless carplay gripe? When I'm sitting in my garage, I can't take advantage of the Wifi access point in my garage because wireless carplay disconnects wifi. Meanwhile my neighborhood is a cellular black hole so nothing works till I'm about a block away form home.
*The jeep is a PHEV with 25-27 miles of full electric range. While that is pathetically small compared to say a Tesla, for me it has been great. I work from home, and rarely go more than 20 miles from the house. With my level 2 charger, I'm charged up in 2 hours, so I can easily get 60-80 miles of all electric range in a single day...while still having the convenience of using gas if I want for long-distance trips.
Got movement let’s go. Just ordered usb c to lighting adapter, another treat to look forward to on Friday
So, on a slight side topic, but still related to getting my iPhone, and still related to shipping - I ordered a case from Native Union on Saturday to replace the FineWoven case that I really don't think will stand up to my use. I ordered it expedited so I could hopefully have it here from Hong Kong by Friday or Saturday. Fedex is already anticipating delivery tomorrow, and looking up flights, there is indeed a direct HKG-MEM flight that gets in at midnight local time! Crazy. just crazy, I tell ya!
For a few years, I switched back and forth between android and iOS every year. I honestly love elements of both ecosystems. Since at the time all my email, contacts, calendars, and photos lived in Google... the switching back and forth was pretty seamless.
Good Morning Everyone! After a restful sleep and grateful to wake up this morning… I’m on the move!
Wave 2B - WE ARE OUT!!!
Has to be this flight… tracking now to the “secret” location!

Yeah, if I were a "switcher", I'd probably let all of the data sit over on the Google side as well. Seems easier...
I have been on iUP since it started and I have kept my previous phones. If you don’t return it, the citizen loan just resumes or you can pay it off at any point. You can absolutely keep your phone.
Couple days ago finally decided on a color and ordered the black 256gb pro max. I’ve consistently gone with the white iPhones in the past but really like how the black looks this time. Expected delivery October 6. Verizon gave me $830 trade in credit for my iPhone 12 Pro.

Every year I always enjoy seeing all these posts about CGO, my wife's home town. Here is a shot from inside of the ZhengZhou airport from back when I would occasionally use roller luggage (one bag backpack travel since then). Not me in the photo, just some random dude.
So one could pay the phone off in 2 years, keep it and then start a new iup loan?
Nice! They snuck this one in under the radar (hehe)
This just came up in my Facebook memories. “A while” became “forever.”
iUp is the exact same thing as financing a new iPhone and trading the old one in every year w/ monthly AppleCare+.
I don’t think there are any other advantages or differences?

I’m pleased to announce that 9/16 - Wave 1 and 9/17 (some members of Wave 2) are on their way to Louisville, Kentucky. They are expected to arrive soon. Please expect, the “Arrival to Facility” scan to hit. After this, there will be NO MORE ACTIVITY UNTIL THURSDAY.
9/17 Wave 2B Some of you were left behind because the 🛃 customs clearance was not fully completed today is your day to travel expect lots of activity. You guys will be up in the air most of the day! Track UPS 173. Link: https://www.flightradar24.com/UPS173/3217454d
The embargo for the iPhone 15 lineup is expected to go live today at 6 AM PDT.
Today is probably going to be a long day for me. I have to go to a stupid last-minute in-person conference. I will try to see if I can catch up with this thread while I'm there but chances seem unlikely. It's only 5 hours long and I hope it gets wrapped up sooner than expected. I don't want to come back catching up with 40 pages. My worst fear!
I hope everyone is going to have a wonderful day! Take care and help each other out. We have lots of amazing people here in this thread who are very helpful.
For today's Photo of the Day. This shot was taken with an iPhone 14 Pro Max on February 19, 2023, at 6:20 PM. It felt like I was dreaming! Lost and away from this world. Away from the problems and worries. Cannon Beach, Oregon. 🌲

lol "waves"...
it doesnt matter if those still in "zz" are departed or not. doesnt matter if you are in "wave 1 or 2".. if you got in to get your phone delivered by this friday, then they all will be held up at the hub until the approval from almighty apple to begin shipping to the end user.
who cares if your phone shows in up in KY today or wednesday. they all will start shipping out at roughly the same time anyway. its the "hurry up and wait" syndrome...

Yes, you also don’t have to wait the 2 years to pay it off. You can pay it off in full at any time. You could also start up a second/new iUP at any point seperate of your current phone.
I have two separate iUP plans, one for mine and one for my wife’s. Both under my name. Previously I have sold older iUP phones and just paid the loans off, even after using the upgrade on the phone and saying I was going to return it. When the return kits come in I just threw them away. As long as the long gets paid off or continues to get paid, they don’t care
