Yeah I evacuated to Orlando for Irma in 2017 and had to go through a huge mess with the executive team for the 8+ IUP preorder while I was staying at the Grand Floridian in Disney World. Got back in time to get the launch delivery though. Good times...
Oh no yea Irma was a bad one. That's the only year I stayed out of upgrading right away. Its good it all ended up working out. Not a bad place to evac to haha.

Looks like your phone and mine are pallet buddies. Lol.
 
A bunch of reviews for Arcade just dropped, to help pass the time. I think there will be a roll out all week of different reviews.
 
Throw Space Gray in there as well cause I got an Oct 4-11 Ship date and was only a few hours late to the party.

For me, I ordered a Pro Max Space Grey 256GB at 17:19 on the 13rd and I have a Sept.23 delivery date on my order. Maybe it's because they are stock for different country? (i'm in Canada)
 
It’s been over 72 hours since I placed my order. I finally received tracking information and my phone is moving. Apple, UPS, and the Chinese and Korean governments are all ignoring my calls to provide me with background checks and drug tests of everyone handling my phone as well as maintenance records of the fork lifts and airplanes. As I said yesterday my phone better be in the middle of a roll of bubble wrap sitting in the cockpit with the captain under heavy guard and supervision. I will ask my phone upon it’s arrival to my house if this was the case. If not I am going to sue. I will be compensated for my ridiculous anxiety and demands because I am John Smith and I will not be denied! I must have what I want when I want it or I must be heavily compensated! The US military better provide armed escorts for the plane. I want a whole squadron protecting the plane that has my phone. I want the UPS trucks and vans to have a full motorcade with armed guards. I will not be denied my phone at 8am on Friday. If it isn’t here by 8am I am going to call UPS and Apple and will insist on a full refund for my phone for having to wait. I deserve compensation because I am me! God forbid the phone doesn’t arrive within the estimated window or if something causes it to be delayed until Saturday or Monday. If that happens I deserve and am ENTITLED to a full refund for the agony of having to wait. I can not survive without that phone in hand at 8am on Friday. I just read the confirmation email for my second phone. Delivery is estimated on September 27th. I have already called my lawyer and the president. I can not possibly wait that long for a new phone. The XS Max I have will not cut it when a new phone is available. I should receive the second phone for free and a refund for the first because I will have to wait a whole week for the second phone. I will be compensated for my juvenile impatience! I am John Smith and I will not be denied my life or death need for instant gratification. Apple and UPS will rue the day... THEY WILL RUE IT !!!
 
It's that time of the year again!... I told myself I won't get it this year, but yet here I am awaiting my iPhone 11 Pro in silver color... at least I looked at my storage usage and got 64GB instead of 256GB this time, I have 2TB iCloud and everything is on the cloud nowadays for me.

I had a moment or two when I tried to consider not buying a new phone this year. I held fast on not buying a new watch... but considering I bought two last year (SS and black sport), I couldn't really justify it as much as I'd LOVE that always on!
 
Definitely the most expensive hurricane for me!:D
Yea in no way was that cheap I bet haha. They get me for so much money every time even though we have the annual pass. Good place to keep your nerves of waiting for your new phone down though. And of course to keep your mind off the crappy hurricane.

Thanks for the feedback.



Would you pick the Apple Clear Case over the Caudabe one?

I tried the Lucid Clear on my iPhone XS Max and it's one of the better ones out there, as clear cases go...Because like the Apple clear case, it's polycarbonate plastic all the way around...So it's more durable and won't yellow as fast as the cheap TPU based cases you will find out there. I did at the time compare it to my friends XR clear case from apple. They felt about the same but the buttons on the Apple case were really tough to press...where as the buttons on the Lucid are exposed...The problem I found with it and the Apple case, is, it's just slippery in the hand to me. So I use their Sheath instead...not clear but a much better grip.

I purchased the Apple clear case just to have a clear case when I get the phone. Not sure if I'll keep it as there are better clear options out there...But I want to wait to see reviews, to make sure they actually fit the new phones correctly and see about the quality...
 

Mine also stuck on September 27 to October 1 delivery. No changes here part of the same early ordering/preapproval group that somehow got stuff with these dates. I do not think we will see movements to the 20th. Perhaps earlier following week other than 27th given other years experiences. My phone moved up two weeks last year from end of October.
 
"The shipping times of midnight green iPhone 11 Pro, green iPhone 11, and purple iPhone 11 are all two–three weeks or longer. The shipping times of other colors are roughly shorter than ten days. It should be noted that the glass casings of midnight green models are currently facing production issues; therefore, it makes the shipping time longer."

Does anyone have official tracking e-mail from Apple? I'm anxiously awaiting mine to get the presign delivery button so I can print it out and sign before I leave tomorrow!
