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

[Wolfs]

Well my experiment using iCloud backup for iPhone is failure my 200mps down and 10 mph up is too damn slow. So I can either do restore/backup or choose the backup from MacBook option in Quickstart I guess. It was gonna take over 8 hours not acceptable given my new phone should be here. I forced a backup of aw Ultra and am next backing up one more time to the computer

Welcome to @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ world

My status changed to Out for Delivery. I just looked on the map and he is within striking distance of my office.

I, too, have Follow My Delivery. The truck is in the next neighborhood over!

Its dead slow I failed

I did a backup with iPad Pro over 10Gbps for iPadOS 17, and the speed came in bursts but it did exceed 100MB/s which is a lot more than the 40MB/s limit for USB 2. I do believe that the backup process is CPU-limited, and there may be some compression or decompression going on behind the scenes.

Is there a SIM ejector in the box?

This natural looks amazing with every single case! Sort of a greige...perfect neutral.

Heads up, using the expensive Apple Thunderbolt 3 cable made no difference in restoring backup from the Mac directly. Still very slow and I am now late since I thought it would have finished an hour ago lol (iPhone 15 Pro Max)

I too just learned this... thought it was going to fly by.

My delivery time keeps slipping, it went from 11am - 2pm to "before 7pm" and now it says 3:45 - 7:45pm. Knowing my luck with deliveries it will slip into tomorrow by this afternoon.

Seriously people can we stop posting pictures of our home locations! No offense but this is the Internet.

I mean I posted something that shows an Apple store close to me, and said the city I live in but nothing about my address, name, whatevs so I figure I'm good. I don't know how much more detailed others have gotten though

Not in America, son

 

[tdar]

Guess what just came? Now I have to go to work. More updates soon!

 

[IPolo1106]

So I guess there’s no way to track the live location of the trucks anymore ?

What's the general consensus on transferring everything to the new iPhone 15 Pro Max? From an encrypted backup or iCloud, or both?

- I set my iPhone as new. Freshly factory-installed iOS.
- Then I wait 20-30 minutes for the indexing to be completed
- Then I apply the software update
- Then I turn on iCloud

iCloud data takes 2 weeks for my iPhone to finish the indexing and syncing under connected Wifi. So results vary on how much you load you have in your iCloud.

I would think it’s Dependent on the client, in this case Apple. I know i always see updates with amazon orders when shipped via ups and amazon.

I keep thinking I want to pick up an Ultra 2 shortly... but I also keep thinking that with a 6 inch wrist, I'm going to look like a kid wearing my dad's watch. What to do?!

Get it regardless! You’ll love it!

 

[mmttu]

No, no SIM card slot.

Thanks! Just checking

I know. I tried on the Ultra 1st gen when it first came out and opted for the stainless steel instead, but now I think I'm at the tipping point. I have to wait for my phone to finish updating before I can place an order though, since I have to make room on my Apple Card.

Does this method transfer the settings from your old phone? I’ve got things set just like I want them, and I’d hate to go through and reset all my preferences.

Aaaaand done.
