Other šŸ“±šŸ“±U.S.A. - Apple.com - New iPhone 16/Plus/Pro/Pro Max US Pre-Orders, Orders, and Delivery Status Thread (2024)

they let you trade colors at the store? I'm on the fence about getting the Black Titanium. Ordered Desert Titanium
This was several years ago, I had the one I picked up at CC, drove to the Apple Store, and looked at the demo phones to decide on the color. The store had my preferred color in stock. I could have chosen to swap my shipped phone for their in stock phone.

I wasn't sure if i wanted to take the extra time to swap, looked at the phone in the case I ordered and decided it didn't make enough difference to bother. lol Went home and set up my new phone. It was awesome! Exciting story!!! lol

I have a DT being delivered tomorrow. I loved the look of BT in videos today, but I did order a black case which would cover the black part anyway. I do hope a bit of the "gold" comes through the front of the case.
 
hi :) i ordered my iPhone 16 at noon on the 13th of September and right now it says it wont come until October 7th. I have a trip coming up and i was just wondering if anyone here knows if its possible my phone might come sooner? im in California if it matters!
If you have an Apple Store nearby, look into stock in the morning and it is possible you could pick one up tomorrow. My Cincinnati Apple Store had stock available to order for Friday pickup as recently as Wednesday. It appears they put up a "check back on Friday" tag on new orders on Thursday morning.
 
I JUST GOT MY EMAIL FOR ISPU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (hubby is being mean and unsupportive and not impressed with my happy dance that i got my email!). MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My wife is the same way: she throws disdain all over my iPhone excitement, so I don’t even mention it anymore. When I ask if she wants to open her box and look at her pretty new iPhone, she lets me know in no uncertain terms that she absolutely does not care, like it’s beneath her. šŸ˜„
 
Yep, no update to this point.

I do know that the Cincinnati UPS CC is one of the closest to Louisville, so not surprised. I just looked at previous deliveries and it does seem most of them would have moved to Cincinnati by now.
Don’t worry it’ll make it.

Louisville is at most a 2 hour flight to anywhere in the US. I’ve had orders leave Louisville after 3AM ET and still arrive on time! UPS knows logistics!
 
My iPhone 16 Pro Max is ready for pickup at 8:00am. Is anyone picking up from the NYC 5th Ave store? What’s the process there?
 
What model did you order? I did the ProMax256 desert
just kind of odd that my phone destined to come to Lubbock went through Dallas first and your phone originally to go to Dallas Fort Worth went through San Antonio first. Just seems a little goofy.
I wish that I could understand the inner workings of UPS logistics.
 
Mine got on one of your planes to Dallas instead of getting a direct flight into Lubbock, so it’s landed in Dallas and then I’ll spend six hours in the truck to get out here to Lubbock.
It just took a minor detour this year. At least it will be there for the Red Raider game on Saturday!

Definitely not worried. In recent years I'm the guy telling everyone not to worry the entire week as they waited for their phones that didn't have scans, etc. So it is funny to stare at the App and say "wtf!?!"

UPS has done so much better with scans, especially the import into SDF, so people's phones weren't disappearing after leaving Anchorage like they had in recent years.

My wife is also like that lol. She thinks I'm crazy every year for following these forums. I am but I love it.
 
Almost there šŸ™ƒ

We have made the end around from San Antonio -> DFW -> Area hub for final sort and placement on the truck.

Long way to get here, but everything is on track (as expected, even with an extra stop in there!)
 
I set appointment to pick it up on 21st noon at Apple 5th Avenue in New York City due to a scheduled all day event. Since that event was cancelled can I still pick up the phone on 20th? Do i need an appointment? I couldnt change the designated day on the Apple site.
 
I really hope they hold off delivering this until 4:30pm, because there’s no guarantee I’ll have someone at home to sign for this while I’m at work 😬
