Just to give an (or no) update: my 27.09.-04.10 Pro Max is still in „preparing to ship“ since early Friday morning.
I hope it’ll be send out either today or tomorrow so that it arrives actually on 27th.

Just got it! The UPS driver almost left me empty handed because he didn’t push the ring button hard enough, twice. Luckily, I heard the engine.
Titanium White lived up to my expectations, looks very clean. On touch the back is velvety smooth as 11 PM’s, nothing beats frosted glass imo.

Wish you all for earlier deliveries!

The white one looks the best in my opinion. It's stunning.

Latest update from UPS. They did not find my address! So, if I want to have a chance to get my phone tomorrow I have to drive for 150km to try to grab it in a UPS Access Point. Today 4 other parcel company delivered 4 packages at the same address!

They really have it on for you. I'd call Apple and leave a complaint about UPS. Not that it will do anything but it helps to vent.

I did that this morning and they told me that they can complain to UPS only if the parcel is not deliverd untile Sep 27. But I don't want to wait longer and tomorrow I try to get it 150km away from my house.
It's frustrating not to be able to do something so that these companies get what they deserve, like losing contracts with Apple for example

I know, I always have issues with UPS as well, not that they don't deliver because they do but they always put it in the mailbox (while the packages always have instructions they need to be signed). So I always report them, hoping that at some point there are enough reports logged.

I love DHL. They’ll deliver today, I’m not home and rerouted the shipment to a close by packstation. Now my wife can pick it up this evening and I’ll have it in my hands tomorrow. If it works this smoothly I cannot complain at all

My 15P is out for delivery today, one day ahead of its expected time window (27 Sep - 4 Oct). Yay!
Friday: "Preparing to ship" -> Monday: "Shipped".
Note for EU users: UPS seems to ship from a hub in Czechia. So I did not get the "full tracking" enroute from China (as many non-EU users), only the brief version from Czechia, just a heads up.

new day, new updates. UPS is investigation where the package is. Apple has contacted me, will do a 2.nd delivery by end of the week. Lets see what happens.
Package seems to be stolen.
Hope everything turns out fine. Fingers crossed for you.

My 15PM arrived today. Funnily enough, the parcel label from DHL says „Pickup date: 2023-10-02“. But why am I complaining...? it's there.

Four days later and 150km after to pick up in person the phone I just have my Pro Max natural titanium. I’m terrified to open it and find some damage like a scratched edges or similar because in that case UPS will never pick up it again 😂😂😂
