I ordered the Desert Titanium, 16 Pro Max, 512gb, original delivery dates: Oct 8th-15th. Got a UPS tracking number and it is supposed to be here between 1-3pm tomorrow, Oct. 10th.

I’m sad there are no updates of people getting their phones early. Usually this thread is poppin.
I ordered a regular pro 256GB on 9/27 with dates of 10/14 - 10/21. Was hoping it would arrive early but at this point it will probably be within the estimated dates.
 
We are order twins. I ordered a 1tb natural titanium 16 pro on the 27th and have the same window.

I check like 5 times a day to see if it’s progressed.

I ordered I16 Pro 1Tb in Natural Titanium on Monday 10/7 - got deliver window 1022 -10/29. Not that I was expecting much but the order is still “processing” and no charge to the credit card yet. Patiently waiting.

I’m in the same boat.
 
Ordered on 9/27, white pro max 256 with a shipping date of Oct 21-28. Black pro 16 256 with a shipping date of Oct 15-22. Hasn’t moved. No deduction taken out of my acct yet
 
I’m beginning to think that checking my order every 30min to an hour does not actually speed anything up. Not sure though? Going to collect more data and will report back with my findings.
Seems fishy to me. Apple definitely has algorithms that track how often you check the status and will prioritize your order accordingly

Yeah I felt conflicted posting my conjecture without hard data, because that’s how conspiracies get started, but it’s also one of those things where if it’s true it could be a scientifical breakthrough.

But yeah just checked and it’s still processing.
 
Hoping I get my 1TB black pro max soon. Went from processing to being prepared to ship yesterday and my card got charged yesterday. Would be nice to get it tomorrow but my gut tells me Monday/Tuesday.

When did you order and what was your expected delivery dates?
 
Status update this morning! Changed to preparing to ship. Still no label created in UPS my choice
Nice! Hopefully that means mine will be soon after, although it’s a different storage size so who knows.

Do you know what time the status update came through?
 
Not sure. It was on processing as of 10PM ET last night and changed at some point between then and 7AM
Just got tracking info. Looks like it’s being shipped from Carlisle, PA (I live in PA). So I guess they’re not shipping direct from the factory in china at this point.
 
Don’t know where to ask this but I cracked my phone before trading it in via mail IUP program. My trade in was cleared and complete and I never got charged the apple care fee. Will the charge arrive later or is it instant?
 
Got my 16 Max Pro, Desert Titanium, 512GB today! I missed UPS the day before because the driver would not let my dog sign for it!!! Anyway, it was shipped from Carlisle, PA. I would imagine that is a staging area for China shipments??? Had a few issues with setup for so reason but otherwise it looks great.

What was the purchase date and range?

Mine just went into preparing to ship. Hope I get it sometime next week.
 
Got a note that my 1tb 16 pro shipped today for delivery on the 15th!
Nice! Mine is coming today. Since it was shipped Friday, it could have come on Saturday since the warehouse is less than 2 hours from me. But it’s shipped next day air which doesn’t deliver on Saturday. Ground shipping does though so if they would have just used ground it would have come early.

Just got mine today only to find the frame chipped and what appears some kind of white specs under not just one but two lenses. Already packed up and going to be returned.

That sucks. That’s also kind of surprising to me as I would figure QA would easily catch that.
