Has anyone from Texas ordered an iPhone 6 Plus from anywhere and got UPS tracking and had it that it would arrive by noon?

Are they accurate?

I can't answer for Texas, but in general, I found the delivery estimates to be fairly accurate. So if it says by noon, then it should be there by noon.

No experience of Texas, but UPS has been reliable for me in Colorado when it comes to getting stuff there on time (far more reliable than Fedex!).

If it's an Apple shipment, however, it might not come by the stated times. Apple's contract with UPS doesn't include a guaranteed time - it's an all day service.

Normally air commitments are for commercial deliveries only. Unless sent Next day air.

I'm in Houston, Texas and just ordered a 64GB Space Gray iPhone 6 Plus available for pickup today. Every store in Houston had them available except for the 2 closest to me :p I'm not working today so I don't mind driving. Let's just hope 64GB is enough!

If it is out of delivery today it very well could be accurate as there is less packages on a Saturday for delivery.

I'm In Houston and on launch day my stuff came around 12:15. I think it really comes down to where you are on the route and how busy the driver is that day
