Carrier iPhone 11, Pro, Pro Max (2019) Apple Store US Pre-orders, Orders and Delivery Status Thread

Is everyone else showing the date as "tentative"?

Nope not this time, but i have gotten that, when I've done CC holds before. But it will clear, if i remember correctly when it reached KY.

Yeah me either. I still have a delivery date of 9/20 and a departure scan from Zhengzhou. I wonder what the 9/17 date is for.

9/17 is when the exception occurred (it's the 17th over there) but if your date still says 9/20 its all good.

Thanks for the info!! I forgot all about the time/date difference. It did show an arrival scan in Korea, so I wonder if it's clearing customs.

Mine isn't showing a tracking number on Apple's site, but if you have the UPS app, it will tell you when you have a package coming- that's how I saw mine before Apple even updates. Hope this helps someone.

I remember from last year’s thread once they posted our invoices to the Apple Store we could lookup our serial numbers to find our manufacturing date, do you remember about when that occurred? I thought it was around the time they hit Alaska if I’m not mistaken.

haha, keep us posted!

I think a huge alcoholics toast when they hit state side lol

Remember all these phones will cross the international date line.

2:55’er update

The fun has slowed down and now all our phones are sitting around wondering what’s taking the plane so long to board and depart. Lol

The real problem is nobody knows if they were first, in the middle or last...When you have thousands, if not millions of orders flooding in, at the same time...who knows the order in which Apple gets them...That's why seconds...in this case, literally mean the difference between getting it on launch day or sometime after...

Agree as long as it is a few minutes, but a full hour shouldn't beat an order that far before it. Most of the time it is just that the customer didn't realize it wasn't the same exact make and model for the same carrier. Every little difference has a different shipping timeframe.

Ya now most people have their tracking numbers and we are all just waiting on movement.

PLANNING TO QUIT USING PHONE CASE

So, I ordered the 11 Pro Max 256gb Midnight Green and see the majority on survey above, did too. Seems I chose well!

Actually, a majority would be more than 50%. So, not quite a majority.

Would be very interesting to see how Apple tracks exact order placement and what spot your in.

I was in the same position with my 6 Plus in 2014. Got it in October. I wasn't thrilled about it, but the wait wasn't that bad for me.

I was waiting forever one year with AT&T until I found the trick to camp the Apple site right before 10PM to find available stock to pick up in store.

The sun rises in Shanghai. Maybe we’ll see some activity

They can only fit so many on a plane. No worries

UPS also has a set number of shipments that they will take each day.

 

[Steve9zero]

For those who have departures scans out of China or elsewhere, what was your arrival scan at ZhengZhou? I’m a 2:55er... no departure yet.

 

[macduke]

Got into the store after 5 minutes, ordered one minute later. iPhone 11 Pro 256GB Midnight Green with T-Mobile sim. Still showing processing with a delivery date Sept 27 - Oct 1. That's some BS that you order that quickly after the store finally comes up for you and can't even get it on launch day. I just hope if it shows up in October that there's not some BS next year with my iPhone Upgrade Program saying I can't upgrade yet. That happened last year because the stupid iPhone X came out in like November or something and I had to pay extra. Not a great way to treat loyal customers who upgrade yearly.

 

[Bobout]

This is the first year I'm having my phones delivered to me and not doing the pick up at the store.. It seems just as hectic reading all these post ...LOL

That sounds like the exact same time they arrived last year of I remember correctly. They have this down to the minute though I bet.
