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

Good lord! I am 75 pages behind because I did not get on here last night after I got home from work. There is no chance I am catching up on that many pages. Hopefully everyone is doing well and people are all seeing movement on their launch day deliveries now

What I learned the hard way is that catching up on 75 pages is possible… the problem is that while catching up on those, an additional 75-100 pages will be added. That’s why I finally gave up 😅

No Coffee. Love the smell of the coffee. It never gets old.

Water Only.

As someone that’s late diagnosed with ADHD as an adult and currently not taking medication (not against just other complications), I could not imagine life without coffee or matcha to be able to focus and fight the brain fog haha

What color did you choose?

One of these things is not like the other…

You're all going to want to remember to order the polishing cream - it's not included with the cloth!

@Fred Zed is the influencer for that

Hmmmmm, but didn't they say shipping was by ship and cutting down on the "Carbon Footprint" ?

Mother Nature going to be ticked off

Damnit! I have to get up and get ready for work. I’m not getting anything done today. 🤷🏻‍♀️

oh you will get lots done-just not your work.

I had trouble going to sleep last night because I went down a usb-c accessory rabbit hole, ordered some accessories, and then was toiling over whether I'd actually use them or not, and then cancelled my order. This thread is making me neurotic. 😭

But did you order the polishing cloth on sale at Target?

 

[MrP90]

It should be faster due to USB3 speeds. But we shall see! 👍🏾

I am debating because that would involve me bringing my MBP on this trip lol. I might just have to roll the dice on transfer. I know my iCloud backup alone is over 150gb

 

[Tuppery Numnak]

Try again. We went through the same thing last year and this year. It's luck of the draw with who gives it to you. Try a couple times.

Got someone else. They said they don’t provide it and to contact the shipper. I give up hahaha what a cluster

Probably less hassle to just pay the $20 for UPS MyChoice for a year. Then you see this stuff without anything more than opening the UPS app.

Otherwise, sit back and relax. It will arrive on time.

Good morning! I was hoping to see a change this morning on UPS. I am still showing 6:22pm scan in ZZ. No movement as of this morning. Hope to see it on the move later today. Anyone else have the same scan? View attachment 2270435

Same scans for me.

Well I enjoy good food and drinks part of making me happy I guess @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ I am on a good diet after years because of some recent health issues (all fine now) but we each have to find our way

This is the way @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ for me LOL

 

[EW406]

Same scans for me.

Me as well

 

[caesarp]

does it also transfer encrypted data like health etc?

If it is backed up to iCloud, I believe so.

UPS won’t allow shipment changes until tomorrow. It is likely due to Apple requirements, but also likely due to the fact the phones haven’t “shipped” yet.

Meaning, they are all on large pallets to cut down on shipping costs. UPS has the individual tracking numbers and has been scanning “master” tracking numbers that cover all phones on a pallet. In KY (or whatever hub they use close to you if you aren’t in the US). They’ll break these down and start to move the actual phones themselves.

At that point, their system will process changes. Apple will also flag them as “shipped”.

So, patience. Unlike normal UPS shipments these aren’t allowed to be delivered as quickly as normal. Normal shipping would have had my iPhone 15 Pro from China to me within 1-3 days. Not 7…

In previous years, if I tried to request a change early the option just wouldn't show up. This year it says this option is not available because of a restriction by the shipper. I hope you are right though.

 

[JaisHTX]

Cigars are fkn disgusting vile things that should never go in to a human body.

 

[edlex]

Do you guys think using an Apple Thunderbolt 3 cable from a MBP to restore to the iPhone 15 Pro Max would be faster than direct transfer this time around?

I bought a new Apple cable just to check this out! $69 for a 1 meter cable was painful..

 

[caesarp]

What the hell number at UPS did you use? I’ve been trying for 20 minutes to just talk to someone and can’t get anyone lol just a perpetual loop.

The international number, first say tracking, then say agent (repeatedly), when they ask for tracking number. Don't say anything else. 1 800 782 7892

Is the UPS app not working for anyone else? Mine just sits on a loading screen. I’ve tried uninstalling, but it didn’t help

Hope you're correct. I know last year, I was able to hold at CC while it was still in China/Korea. This year, not an option. Not even one while it's here. So we will see when Apple shows as "shipped" and provides tracking.

Working fine here, but at this time of year especially tomorrow and Friday we overload them LOL

 

[caesarp]

This thread is nuts lol. I'm not even here for the flight tracking crazyness since I personally feel its pointless being that everyone is getting their phone on the same day lol (and also I always do in-store pickup).... but all of the other banter and extra-curriculars in this thread make it easily one of the best in MR history.

I sleep better at night knowing my phone has been resting for 24 hours comfortably in Kentucky, after its long travel from China. A mere 4 hours by domestic jet flight to my local UPS distribution center.

 

[LeahJoFoxtrot]

Ahhhhhhhhhhh!! I am finally getting a dark blue iPhone Pro Max!!! Be Friday already! I want my phone and I want to only have 2 more days on-call for work

There has been a small change to my UPS delivery status in the past 30 minutes. The delivery was originally had a 3-hour delivery window, with an option to pay an additional $14.99 for a 2-hour window. Now it just states "Delivery by 7:00 PM, and the 2-hour window option in the My Choice settings has gone.

I was a member of the unlucky group that had problems with getting an upgrade pre-order to load on pre-order day. My original ship date was 10/4-10/9, which then updated to 10/2.

Today, my order shipment appeared on UPS My Choice with a 9/22 delivery date: 👍🎉🎉

Yep and last year some people were able to pick them up early as a result. Not something Apple likes.
