I'm waiting for wave 69

Bmustaf has reported that UPS 748 has departed ZHCC, and my phone was, of course, not on it. This means that it has now spent more time in China then I did in the US Navy on the old “Bonnie Biddle” DLG-34.

Marques has some issues here and there and sometimes has to correct the false information he states in videos. At the level he's at on YouTube, you'd think he'd have better research done on the things he's discussing. But in his defense, he at least admits to it and is trying to improve constantly. And the quality of his cinematography on YouTube is unmatched. I love his intros.

iJustine and Marques are my top two tech reviewers. But there are a few others I watch who do in-depth research and tell it like it is.

Has anyone with store pick up had any updates on the “null” status? Just left the Apple Store and they were clueless and said they never saw that before…told me to contact support. Support assured me it’s still good for the 16th…

Thanks for looking into this! My app also shows "null status" since sometime last Friday, even though website and email initially confirmed a Sep 16th pickup. Affected my pro max order only, possible only pro max orders are affected w/ this "null" designation instead of the date showing up. My wife's pro, ordered at the same time, shows properly the pick up date. I was just going to see what happens once Thursday rolls around, hoping they both show ready for pick up on Friday.

For everyone else still waiting to leave ZZ. Appears that there's a UPS 748 inbound to ZHCC. Very high probability this will pick up another 46 containers of AAPL goods...

Yup, that checks w/ Tail Number N622UP that @Jtw1219 spotted a bit ago. I think that's our flight. Hopefully in an hour or so we some some changes.

Another amusing thing about the AfterShip app: It thinks the phones traveled back and forth 3 times 😀

Mine just shows your order will be available soon. Then down below that it has my check in window.

I have in-store pick-up as well. Mine just says "processing" but my credit card has a pending transaction with the amount of the iPhone. So I assume it shipped from China and is in Kentucky or being transferred to my local Apple Store.

That app is pure lies. Lies I tell ya! 🤣

I’ve had a number of Apple items held at the CC in the past. One time UPS timed the deliveries so close, I waited at the CC for the UPS truck to drive to the CC with the stuff.

I set my (Premium) UPS account to pick up at the nearby UPS retail store. Someone called me today to let me know that my ‘item from China’ was ineligible to hold at a UPS location. …. That I would have to wait for 3 attempts then I could pick up at CC. ???? So from the browser (not app) I set for pickup at the CC (which is what I wanted from the start anyway, it wasn’t an option from the app.

I’ve always picked up from CC, except last time at store because CC wasn’t an option. Let’s see if this sticks.

I love following both this and the uk thread. I'm in the uk and last ordered a launch day iPhone 12 and loved the experience of both getting involved with the excitement during the keynote, reading here and going to my local Apple Store to collect. A little more memorable I guess as it was during uncertain times.

I had paid off my phone using an Android for like a week and caved and got the 13 pro. Now I must say following the threads again and getting the same buzz making me wish I could have held out longer as much as I love my iPhone circumstances made the choice to upgrade sooner the most sensible option.

I'll be following here and spend the next few weeks reading up and catching up on these threads. I've not even started the uk one yet this year lol

I'm not sure but I'd quite like to think I'll be doing a launch say iPhone 15 but will more than likely be the 16 but will see

My husband and I both have the Apple MagSafe Duo Charger. We travel a lot and the compact folding design is great. When my iPhone isn’t charging, I put my AirPods Pro on the MS part. We both really love this charger. I’ve had it since it first came out.

I hear we may have to angle the watch pad about 45° from vertical to fit the AW Ultras.

Love the Duo, too. Perfect for motorcycle trips due to its great packability. Use an Anker nano cube for the brick 👌

Got a call for last minute emergency meeting. I'm not sure why they even bothered calling me.

Only thing I could take of is "iPhone 14 Pro Max 1TB" Let's get it.

Time to catch up. Behind 3 pages now 🙃🙃🙃

I think my phone got beamed to Louisville. Last update was 11/9:50 in China. Just now I got notification it was in customs clearance in Louisville.

wonder if Scottie beam it up.

update: well I think it is, AfterShip says in customs clearance but UPS site still says it’s in China 🤷‍♂️

I bet you’re living on caffeine and preorder excitement. I’d have to have toothpicks to keep my eyes open.
