Has anyone with the standard non-wireless case ship yet?

Nope, ordered on the 20th at about 8:30am PT and have been preparing to ship since that night but nothing yet. Also checked UPS reference and nothing there either.

When you put in your phone number do you get a message under the reference box saying “Shipment reference is required”?

Yeah it did, which I think just means that it wasn’t finding anything. I did just check again, however, and it is now showing up with a label created. No info yet, but I at least have the tracking number now.

Edit: I just used one of those 3rd party package tracking sites and it looks like it was shipped 2nd Day Air from Rialto, CA. I am guessing those of us who bought the standard case versions will get them shipped from the US because they have probably been ready to go for a while, where as the wireless cases have just recently been manufactured.

I bought the standard case and I see China .

Hmmm, well I’m not sure what to think of this. I saw the posts saying to check UPS status with a reference number and when I did, my address has a package delivery scheduled for Monday from what looks to be Apple. I’ve attached a screenshot shot. I’ve heard of some earlier than expected deliveries, but this would be totally surprising. I was just hoping to receive it on the 27th of my 27-29th delivery window. Perhaps UPS will hold it until then like they have for iPhone releases.

Edit: I ordered mine with the wireless case and placed it around 10am on the 20th.

still preparing to ship. Are these coming direct from the factory (i'm assuming China) or they going from a warehouse like iPhones tend to. If they are coming from the warehousing I can see an overnight delivery for Tuesday. But who knows. Its been so hard without AirPods for the past month. The struggle is real. :eek:

My tracking just showed up on UPS finally and also shows delivery for Monday. Just scheduled the delivery for pick up at the UPS office, so I could potentially have them early tomorrow morning.

I ordered wireless charging version and they’re being shipped from California.

I just got the same notice in my UPS app. I highly doubt they will deliver tomorrow. Says they are shipped 2 day air. And currently it only says order processed which means the labels likely just got printed. They will all ship tomorrow and deliver 27th.

Yes, I did. Oh well, I can wait til Wednesday lol

I wonder if engraving is what triggers it to come from China? Because someone else in the thread said their Wireless version shipped from Rialto too.

And damn, now I wish I got mine engraved as well! The note on the site said it might extend the delivery time out so I didn’t do it cause I didn’t want to wait

I didn’t see it slowing down the delivery. I just saw it was free and jumped on it. One day difference for engraving isn’t bad.

I did see that persons post. Think I quoted him. You may be right about where it’s sent from.

Just got a ups notification that mine will come tomorrow (in California and coming from California). Doubt it’s accurate though as the package hasn’t even been picked up. Unless they pick it up today it can’t come tomorrow.

Anyone knows if delivery requires in person signature (same as with iPhone) or will UPS leave it by door? or do you need to leave a release authorization?
