Just bought one of these guys. I hope its as clear as it shows, then I will be less likely to go naked. Its so tempting.
According to my UPS app, that's no longer an option.Probably need to wait for customs to clear before that will be available.
If it’s going to change it’s still too early.Any luck for Hold for Pickup those who landed in Louisville ?
Yep. You need about 48 hours from Asia to make it work.It's always possible, but I'd be surprised if they were in the US, even more so on an even lower margin product, unless AAPL (or UPS or FedEx) has an oddly large amounts of previously unknown free/sunk cost 3PL space and labor sitting around. UPS does offer next and second-day-air international direct distribution products, but, who knows, it is odd to not see any movement on those SKUs, but it is only Tuesday, and it's not unheard of to see ship-customs-out for delivery within 48 hours with UPS direct distribution.
But rumor has it they had lines running the the non-Pro models first, so maybe this was the case and there is room in Rialto or their PA facility where the labor is already a sunk cost to make this work!
First good shot I've seen that really empathizes the smaller footprint and slimmer bezels. So tasty.

Unfortunately the expected layover is about 60 hours, so plenty of time to rest up.

Phew, I'm tired after all that traveling from China.
I get you! We’re all in agreement. The comment was so out of left field at the time. I’m so excited for my Blue Beauty, too.*nodding* I couldn't give a crap what others see, I want to see my beautiful dark blue phone. It's a large fraction of the reason I'm even upgrading this year lol
Because it's fun! We do this every single year, and it's like a big block party with lots of familiar faces, and new people too. It's a tradition. Please feel free to join in the fun, but don't try to bring us down, it won't work.Why is everyone tracking UPS knowing every iPhone will be delivered on Friday lol
Also looking forward to my Titanium Blue.I get you! We’re all in agreement. The comment was so out of left field at the time. I’m so excited for my Blue Beauty, too.
Update For Those Stuck In China - Wave 3?
Just by some quick research, I think this is your way out of Zhengzhou. Please keep in mind that this is just speculation and might not happen. This is all based on patterns and scheduled flights. All times will be local and not converted to your time zone. You'll have to do that on your own.
9/20 | UPS174 | CGO-ICN | Departure: 5:00PM CST | Arrival: 7:45PM KST
9/20 | UPS99 | ICN-ANC | Departure: 10:00PM KST | Arrival: 12:15PM AKDT
There are then several flights that depart Anchorage for Louisville between 2-3PM AKDT. Those will get into Louisville on 9/21 (Thursday) between 12-2AM EDT. That will give plenty of time for those arrivals to clear the import scan and be ready for the sort on Thursday night.
Here is the translated and short read version for Central Time Zone. Your products should leave China at 4AM CDT Wednesday morning. They will arrive in Louisville around 1AM CDT on Thursday morning.
I hope this gives some hope for those still stuck in China. As others have said, you will get your phone on 9/22.

glad him and Jordan found a safe home at petapixel. I will never forgive amazon for killing dpreview.For the camera nerds... Chris & Jordan at PetaPixel don't need any introduction. Solid review of the iPhone 13 Pro & Pro Max cameras.
