Well Apple hasn't updated but because I have a FedEx Mgr account got a text that my package just left Shanghai! I think anyone can sign up for fedex and you get a text anytime a delivery is headed your way.
Got a tip for us?

UPS be tripping.
There's no way, right? The flight data shows it arriving in Anchorage around 1:45AM eastern. How does it get from Alaska to Michigan to be delivered by end of day? Doesn't this have to be sorted in the U.S. somewhere, then sent to my local sorting facility, then truck? I mean...I would LOVE it, but I ain't getting it tomorrow, right?

It might be possible. The logistics when they want to actually work right, is astounding. Keeping my fingers crossed and sending out positive vibes. ??
Woo Hoo! En Route!!! Landing in roughly 4 hours. A lot will happen tonight. Rest be assured, delivery is all set for tomorrow.
Right now you are En Route. Once it arrives in Anchorage, Alaska. The plane will need its jet fuel to make it to Kentucky. Expect a Departure scan to hit shortly to Louisville, Kentucky. it will be the same plane.
Once it arrives in Louisville, Kentucky, Expect an Arrival Scan followed up with an Import Scan. From there, you will catch the final flight to your home destination! Woo Hoo! I hope you are all ready and prepared for your MacBook tomorrow
Happy and safe travels!!!
5X89 (UPS89) United Parcel Service Flight Tracking and History 12-Nov-2021 (ICN / RKSI-PANC) - FlightAware
Track United Parcel Service (5X) #89 flight from Incheon Int'l to Anchorage Intl
flightaware.com
Please view this post #12,480 . I think you are all traveling on the same plane. Expect lots of scans to appear tonight. Happy and safe travels. Tomorrow is a big day for you.
Yeah mine shows the same...
So we are on the UPS89 flight right now: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS89. We get into ANC at 09:54PM (ANC local time).
Looking at the schedule going from Anchorage to UPS Worldport (main US sort hub) in Louisville, KY, there's one flight (UPS2997) scheduled for super early tomorrow morning departing at 1:54AM ANC local time: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS2997/history/20211112/1030Z/PANC/KSDF
If we are lucky and they can move our macs from UPS89 to UPS2997 within 4 hours touchdown to takeoff, we'll be in Louisville, KY at 11:30AM Eastern Time. Then it'd catch an afternoon or evening connector flight to Michigan/Mass. By the time it reaches us, it probably will be past the time our local UPS trucks would've completed Friday deliveries. This is assuming that the shipments are in fact pre-cleared... however there is a chance that they will be stuck in Kentucky for U.S. customs inspection (no idea how long that could be).
If all goes well, I'm betting Monday (I don't think they'd deliver Saturday?).
That's a good possibility but I don't think they will move your Macbook to another UPS flight. It all depends on the scan. You have to keep us posted. Also, keep an eye on this flight if you don't see any scans after it lands. Estimated time 1-2 hours later. After it lands in Alaska. Otherwise, if you see the scan appear less than 8 hours of the scheduled flight. It will be on the same plane.
My intake: Your MacBook will travel to Louisville, Kentucky on the same plane you are in right now

No, you didn't. you didn't report your battery life in here today.
Yeah, eventually. I'm gonna have to take the charger back
I don't need it.
I haven’t used my Mac since I.got back, I’m in bed on my phone, depressed about this crap weather.🥺No, you didn't. you didn't report your battery life in here today.

It’s meant to be spring now. 🤦♂️
If it has cleared customs, there is a chance it can arrive on Friday.
My fingers are crossed! Hopefully tomorrow y’all receive your 💻 tomorrow.
I love the optimism! I wish I had any, lol.
You should! Air Bourne ✈️ right now. No more China for you. Trust me, this 💻 will amaze you. It’s such a beautiful laptop.
I’m now Dec 13-20 because I returned my upper base 14” for 32gb. Not regretting the return but regretting I didn’t go with 32 from the start……I’m spending that much money to begin with what is another few hundred…….EVERY TIME! Ugh!
There are so many variables. Mine was a similar schedule and situation. It was here the next day. Congrats either way!
@TheYayAreaLiving 🎗 you noticing crappy photos with your iPhone?
Thought I was tripping, took this photo today at apple, my hand is white and arm is tanned 🤦♂️
Then I come across this thread, wonder what problems we’ll see with our macs, apple has really gotten lazy lately. No attention to software whatsoever.
The thread is massive 🤦♂️😣
My 12 pro max use to take better photos.

Really bad photos with iPhone 13 Pro (+Max) Merged
So, there's clearly a problem with the photos on my iPhone 13 pro. It's not only me because yesterday I saw a topic here with people reporting the same thing. Basically every single photo I take is automatically modified with evident layers of sharpness, excessive contrast and other things...

Ok! Glad you posted that because I thought I was tripping. Today, I took a picture of the Apple Power adapter and for some reason the pictures kept coming out blurry. I thought I was tripping but I noticed you are also experiencing that. For some reason they are blurry. Not sure why.@TheYayAreaLiving 🎗 you noticing crappy photos with your iPhone?

Also, the whole Mac OS on the new Mac is very unstable too.
I was going to say something when we got to 420 pages, but I'm not Elon Musk and I don't inhale... 😂😂
Those are the same temps we are getting in Colorado US during the day right now!
😐
It’s been like this for a while, it wasn’t like this when I first got the phone.
They screwed something up big times.
I’m regretting not getting the watch band 🤦♂️

Do you think it’s because of the lighting? I zoomed in and it does look different.@TheYayAreaLiving 🎗 you noticing crappy photos with your iPhone?

I wonder how will it show on my 💻
It shouldn’t be the lighting, skin is skin. 🤦♂️😂
Here it looks normal 😔 $1,849 paper weight camera 😂 very inconsistent.
I’m not buying anymore products until they prove to me they know what they’re doing.
Good on him for calling this stuff out.
That camera thread is over 400 posts long
Yeah, it shouldn’t do that. I think the quality is bad for IOS software also the MacOS. All we can do is have some hope and wait. Hopefully the issues are not appearing in the beta versions.
Jon is right! It’s a hot mess. But we have great hardware it’s just the software that is lacking.
