Apple.com preorder thread - iPhone 6/6 Plus

Not exactly though right?

With Next 18, there are 24 payments, so after you've paid 18 (each month, or prepay after 12 so you can upgrade for the 6s), you can trade in and then upgrade. And you've paid 18/24 or 75% of the price of the phone.

With Next 12, there are 18 payments, so after you've paid 12, you can trade and upgrade. And you've paid 12/18 or 66% of the price of the phone.

If that's the case and you want to trade in after 12 months (with either Next 12 or Next 18, you're paying less if you'd just signed up for Next 12.

Am I right here?

From what the AT&T rep told me, even if I pick the 18 month plan, I can trade in my phone for cost even after 4 months if I please. Hence why I will be using my 2 year upgrade for the 6S since it'll be available by then. Even though I'm doing an 18 month plan, they'll allow me to end it after however many months that will be when the 6S releases.

It really wouldn't have made a difference if you chose 12 or 18. I did 18 but I'll still be able to get the 6S for upgrade price/renew my next plan.

I chose 18. If there is a 6s sometime next year that's worth upgrading (wireless charging or something like that ) You can just pay off the remaining balance on your installments and get a new 18 plan for the new phone.
 
I would like to see the Rialto, CA phones start moving, hopefully later tonight.

Are all the shipments through UPS?

All my phones show up the in my Support Profile, all are 9/19 delivery on the Apple Orders page, but I only have one 0.50 Kg shipment from China showing on UPS.

Are you trying on the UPS app? Download it and you'll probably find all of them in UPS my choice. I don't see all of mine in the website, however they are in the app.
 
found my tracking through my my ups a couple days. Apple still shows that my iphone is still preparing for shipping but today ups got it and has started moving it. Don't worry if you are still preparing for shipment. It just isn't updated online timely.
 
My phone is moving according UPS and AT&T just sent me an automated text about my new 2 year contract. I finally feel as if we are making progress.

Nope. If you're using AT&T Next and you end your plan, you aren't obligated to pay off the remainder of the balance. At least I'm not. I spoke with 3 different AT&T reps and they all heavily emphasized that I was NOT obligated to continue making payments if I cancel my Next plan early.
 
well.. my phone just arrived in KY from Nashville... I'm guessing it's going to hang out there until tomorrow where it'll ship out for the long haul to Cali! :cool:
 
Huzzah! My T-Mobile iPhone 6 64GB Gold has departed China finally! :apple:

My credit card was charged on Monday..

But Apple's site still says "preparing to ship" with expected delivery on 9/19??
Surely it has actually shipped... how can I track it?

We're on the same flight:

Location Date Local Time Activity
ZhengZhou, China 09/18/2014 5:15 A.M. Departure Scan

And we have the exact same phone ;-)

Mine too! Except mine is a AT&T 128g space gray plus. Good to see things moving again.
Wonder which flight it is?
 
AHHHHHHHH!!!!! I just checked and it's my HUSBAND'S Phone that has showed up in my support profile but not mine!!! WHY!!!! We both have delivery dates of 9/19!!! Where is it? Anyone else STILL not seeing anything!?
 
I'm also part of the group that left China at 5:15 AM (9/18) but can't seem to figure out what flight either. Nothing departing Shenzen Bao'an for Anchorage until later tonight (China time) and no UPS flights to Hong Kong or Shanghai.
 
Finally got my tracking number and coming out of Harrisburg PA via Next Day Air. Now I need to check My Choice on UPS to see if I change delivery to no signature. I've done it before in other items but hopefully Apple allows me to do this.

Don't they use China Cargo or something like that?
