Just noticed my UPS MyChoice account was created in September 2014, 10 years ago to the month, because I created it (and my MacRumors account) just so I could take part in the iPhone 6 tracking hysteria. I remember how deflated I was after my order got delayed by almost a week. Literally everyone wanted that phone.

I lived in Cupertino at the time and the day after the iPhone 6 keynote (which was held at my local college De Anza) I was at a local coffee shop right next to 1 Infinite Loop and saw an Apple employee sitting there chatting with some coworkers... he was wearing a stainless steel Apple Watch, half a year prior to when it was finally released.

The iPhone releases I remember most fondly are the iPhone 6 because it was such a huge deal (radical new design, super thin, the first 'big' iPhone Plus, and of course the Apple Watch unveil) as well as the iPhone 4, the one and only time I queued up at the Apple Store on release day back when they didn't have pickup windows. You had to get there super early in the morning to line up. The Apple Store paid for coffee + croissants for a bunch of people that were lined up.

I think my favorite release had to be the 3G though. I was in complete awe at that phone. I must have been 8 or 9 years old when that released and I remember holding it for the first time after my dad got one. Nothing will ever beat the magic of holding an iPhone 3G for the first time for me because there's no beating childlike wonder over technology. Now I'm old (by zoomer standards) and jaded by new releases. Plus kids today grew up with this technology so they don't care about the novelty either.

The only old iPhone I have sitting around my house is my original iPhone from 2007. I’ve had almost every model since but only kept that one because I remember how amazing it was back then.

I’m almost afraid to say this, for reasons many of you know…..😂😂😂 but AfterShip just dinged with a notification that customs clearance just happened. For real, I swear!

UPS hasn’t updated with that scan yet.

Not my AfterShip. It’s 8:13 AM ET in Louisville. Come on people, wake up, have some coffee and a bagel, and start scanning. :p

Has anyone been able to find their serial number? I feel like that was something that was figured out prior to delivery in past years.
