'Single family' warehouse on 500+ acres of land for $2000/mo. Way better deal than the $1800 3/2s I've been looking at lately. 🤪
 
Someone just said their 17 Pro Max is 1.4 lbs. Everyone has a different weight lol
My AWU3 that’s shipping from Clayton, IN is also 1.4 lbs. I wonder if that person ordered one of those as well?

I haven’t yet received any tracking info for the two 17 Pros I preordered. I’m guessing it’ll be tomorrow or the day after.

Nope. The only thing I ordered was the 17 PM (Cosmic Orange lol). No watch this year.
 
Apple says “preparing to ship”; but UPS app has my tracking number for an Apple shipment from Lebanon, TN — Next Day Air Saver “label created … not received the package yet.” Heading to Texas soon. Pretty excited!

512 Deep Blue Pro Max.

I ordered my Ultra 3 as soon as the presentation was over and got 9/24 delivery.

That's a bummer!

iPhone 17 Air got 9/25 but after I sent an email to Timmy, it got bumped to 9/19.

Not really worried about U3 - I want my Air on 9/19...

My AWU3 is shipping from Lebanon, TN and 1.3lbs. Nothing on my phones yet.

Will probably sit there with no movement til Thursday ☹️

Way less fun than tracking the china adventure
 
No tracking for any of the phones I ordered but I’ve had Shipment Ready on my Series 11 since preorders opened essentially. 0.90lbs from Clayton, IN.

I know people don't understand photography very well so i want to explain that this iPhone does NOT have 8x.
Exactly like the main sensor never had 2X.

They are crops of the sensor. They are not in any way photographic modules. It's a fancy digital zoom and it will be no different (as a system) from zooming to 8x with the 16Pro.

BUT Apple is smart. So usually they do this when there's a jump in the sensor size. Because the sensor is bigger there are more details and for this reason the digital zoom has more details and people believe it when they see the new option in the focal lengths. But again, the 5x camera is better but it's still only a 5x camera.

It's important to understand the difference.
No. We need to real-world test; Apple calling it 8x in the wildly different world of iPhone cameras may be quite reasonable. The only thing that matters is the way the three 48MP cameras actually perform as a system. There is no direct comparison between the computerized 3-lens photography of an iPhone and a standalone camera with a single lens.

Did you get the black AWU3, or the titanium?
 
I haven’t heard of anyone else moving from 25 to 22

Are you in the contiguous US?

I'm in Hawaii, they could be playing it safe. I've been playing this preorder game for many years now, and have always gotten launch day delivery which for Hawaii I know is a achievement.

Fingers crossed, but still no tracking info yet, nothing on ups my choice, etc... Not able to look anything up via the old ways like we used to.
 
The two Air’s I ordered from Apple (no carrier, no finance) always stated 9/19 delivery but nothing in UPS MyChoice. Currently “preparing to ship.”
I did however get a tracking number in MyChoice from AI in Clayton, IN on 9/10 for .7 pounds, I assumed that’s the APP3 I ordered.
Nothing on the AWU3, still processing.
Yes, it’s been an expensive year but am looking forward to the Air coming
Personally I liked the tracking from China from years past but never did the tracking the plane thing.

How’s peoples experiences with changing the UPS delivery to a UPS store pickup been?
Not sure if I can be home on Friday, I thought I’ve had the option to pre-sign a release with Apple or UPS but could be mistaken.
 
MFAs transfer over more completely with Migration or Restore from backup on a Mac?
I don't know. But i did have to toggle "backup to iCloud" on MS Authenticator settings as it was off. Just did this a week ago while researching. Last year, I got stuck when I didn't do that right with the 16PM and I had to redo all my MFA on that app and it was all for work sites and apps. That sucked.
 
No tracking here yet, either. Checking UPS MyChoice and various track by reference numbers. I'm hoping I can find a local UPS location to pick it up on Friday, as the one I always used in the past closed. (Customer Care center or something like that?)
There are no more UPS CC, if you select a UPS store for pickup , you might possibly delay by a day or so.

I haven't done the UPS Store pickup - but from other past posts, what I remember is that it may add another day to your delivery as dropping off at a UPS store may be one of the last things the truck does before return to its hub. So you may not be able to pickup until the next day.

It may be worth the delay if you're worried about porch theft.

For those who already have a tracking number, could you please try tracking it by reference and let me know what “reference” is linked to your tracking number?

Is it your order number? Your phone number? Your email address? Or something else?

Thanks!
I don't have a tracking number, but I’ve been trying by phone number and email address so far. Nothing. I know last year it was, I think, the last 6 numbers of your order or something like that.
 
For the first year I'm doing in store pickup since the UPS CC stopped letting us pick them up. My UPS driver comes really late in the day and has a habit of kicking deliveries to the next day if he's running behind. It's so weird not to be able to track anything!

That's weird. The 17PM was the only thing I ordered from Apple.
