No worries here, I just missed the fun. And last year I did store pickup for the first time and they had a lot of temps working that did not know how to properly complete the transfer without help. They messed up with the eSIM and I ended up having to go to the AT&T store to get it sorted out.
The 26% faster 5G is the only feature that interests me. That said, my 15pro max already pulls 1,200mbps on midband with Verizon and T-Mobile so I wouldn’t likely notice any difference.
Same here. I’m going to miss the tracking fun though.
Uwwww, that an iPhone Pro Max case shipped, I read the fine print LOL.
Yep! Seems a little unfair for those of us that are on MVNO's
Ok cool. I knew about them sending a box, but I hate the idea of doing that. If the package gets lost, I don’t want to deal with that.
Also to add to this (based on my iPhone 14 order in 2022), there are some shipping destinations where Apple does pre-staged shipments of certain models to UPS distribution centers ahead of time (so your origination scan isn't directly from China) separate from the ones drop shipped to retail (for their launch day inventory). That year, my phone was already sitting at the local DC (so my tracking didn't originate from China like most everyone else and only updated until it was scanned on the truck for delivery).
I wonder how many people will read your message quickly and frantically call Apple to raise hell about not having their tracking information yet. "I don't have my tracking information yet, and someone else has, so should I be worried?"
Same. I almost regreted hitting Pickup in store, because of the no tracking fun but it's ok. I get my phone at my convenience instead of UPS's LOL!
keeping my fingers crossed that it will be the same as the t-mobile bypass last year and you can get by the activation screen just as easy
They have their own tracking and insurance on the package. I did that one year, and I took a video of me putting the phone in the package and sealing it. I also took a photo when I dropped it off to avoid issues. lol
Did they ask you before doing that? I’d be royally pissed if they robbed me of the unboxing experience. The eSIM transfer is very straightforward. I’ll do it myself at home.
I upgraded from a PM15 myself for all the reasons I outlined above. Wasn't sure before the launch but now I am. It's totally worth it. Plus, you have to remember that your $650 PM15 trade-in this year will be worth about $350 next year. 😂
Yea. Same here but like the idea I’ll have it by 8:30 in the morning
