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

[Koshkaboo]

iPhone Pro 11 arrived about 12:30 this afternoon. Getting it set up was a bit rocky. Initially I typed in the wrong PIN for Verizon and so activation hung up. That was OK I realized almost immediately what I had done but it didn't just tell me the PIN was wrong, instead the activation just hung. Finally I had to power off the new iPhone.

When I restarted it would not do the automatic transfer thing and I had to a manual activation. Fine. I put in the correct pin and that was all OK. Then it went to wanting me to put in my apple account and password, which I did. That wanted to use 2 factor authentication but it wouldn't come up on my old phone (probably because I had activated the new phone). But, the new phone didn't seem to know it had been authenticated so it didn't get the authentication messages.

Ultimately I went back and started over on the apple account and it worked fine this time and didn't ask for the authentication.

I ended up hating the case I had bought online (folio type) as it was too bulky. I decided to go with an Apple case as I want something easy to take on and off (will use it without case at home). I went to the Apple store and liked the new clear case but found it super hard to get on and off. Sales person kept trying to sell me on the idea it was as easy to get off as the other cases but it wasn't (at one point I actually dropped the phone trying to pry the case off of it). I did find that the leather case was as easy to get off as the silicone case and I liked the green leather better than the green silicone so went with that.

I'm not adversing something this is only what I think and what I see. For this time this is too ugly. Sorry if someone feels bad about what I said.

I am not feeling bad, I like my 11 Pro Max. Sorry you don’t, everyone has their own opinion.

Setting up my phone as new this year. Doubting my decision but my XS has years of crap from all the past upgrades.

Sorry guys, I can't get this iPhone 11 Pro. Looks so terrible. And even name is so stupid for it. Only Pro I can call for the moment Samsung Galaxy Note 10. And honestly Note 10 looks so damn beautiful.

Nobody cares about you.

Yup and I'm on the East coast so it's nearly 10 PM here. The driver said it should be loaded on his truck but he could not find it around 5 PM. I'm on the phone with UPS now and they're searching to see if there any trucks still out there.

a number of us have the same issue. I’ve read from one post that Apple said that it could take up to 72 hours to post you AppleCare

Apple told me the same thing about 72 hours. I called them about the same issue.

Wow leave it to UPS. He probably took it and now is saying to lost. I don’t trust those drivers

I’m sorry to hear that. Wishing the best for you and hopefully it’s still out for delivery. 😕

Oh no hopefully they find it. Maybe once all the trucks are back it was just a mix up and on the wrong truck and they bring it to you tomorrow.

Next year I will either hold it at UPS CC or pickup from Apple store... no more delivery .. I got the phone at 6:15 PM while I woke up at 6 AM and thinking about setting this up...

One good thing about my area is I’ve had the same driver as far back as I can remember at least 5 years or more. Same driver and has driven the same truck so I know him he knows me. Always remembers my dogs and ask about them and everything.

Same here. I think I’ll try my first apple store pick up next year. It was fun though mixing it up with everyone on here.

Even better part is his truck is one from the late 90s early 2000s that’s got the International 7.3 diesel and stick shift so you can hear it turn onto the street

When I ordered my sister’s phone I didn’t go through setting with a carrier as I didn’t have all her info and was not putting it on a payment plan. How do I help her set up? Does she take her SIM card from her old phone and put it in her new phone?

 

[shiksa]

As usual! It’s been loads
Of fun. I’ll be back after sim-surgery & backup see you folks on the flip side

You can do that with most carriers yes. Doing that also usually avoids the upgrade fee.

All I get is these 2 options

I believe you can either call AppleCare Support and see if you have the option to add the full price, other option is take it to the Apple Store then they can do a full price 2 year AppleCare plus plan. I will probably do mine tomorrow.

I called and they sent the payment link via email. They said there should be an option for the full price but it’s a known issue that it’s not showing up.

I figured it out! mysupport.apple.com has the $199 price. The other links aren't working properly or they are just trying to drive everyone to the $9.99 price.

I tried there too and it didn’t show for me I got the same 2 monthly options. But may be fixed by now that was a few hours ago.
