Other USA Apple.com iPhone Air /17/17 Pro/ 17 Max/ Pre-Release, Order And Delivery Thread

[ignitedvelocity]

No idea how this Youtube guy in Pakistan got his hands on a 17 Pro Max this early. The phone looks genuine and not a fake.. Its not in english language though

Wow, it looks great in the hand. Better than I thought.

A show of hands. How many of you plan on flying into an area, attached to a dolly while holding your iPhone Pro using an attachment, videoing some cinematic event? I saw those use cases during the event and I wondered if you identified with that activity. Just curious.

For those doing set up as new/fresh install,

For the past year, I've been promising myself that this would be the year that I wouldn't migrate my phone and would start from scratch. For goodness sake, my iPhone backup started on the iPhone (2007) and has made its way through the 3G(S), 4S, 5S, 6S, X, 11Pro, 12Pro, and now my 14Pro. Without question, there has to be corruption and other digital sludge in there from eighteen years of use. But it seems so overwhelming to start over that I'll probably just migrate the darned thing again.

Anyone else started from scratch? How painful was it? How'd you transfer the stuff you couldn't just recreate?

This is me. I posted this and a handful of people said they are planning on it also. I am not totally sure on the process that won't royally mess everything up though. Should we manually do the apps/settings logged out of IC, then toggle back on IC line items one by one? It can't be that simple lol.

Do you order from apple.com with a carrier?

Yep. Financed through T-Mobile via Apple website.

I don't have a State option. Only country or territory. Entering my whole order # only returns a message that shipment reference is required.

Track by Reference Number... put your order number and state and that’s it. (If you don’t see anything, your label is not created yet.)

I don’t trust going caseless, even if I add AppleCare, because you still have to pay for repairs. I have my Otterbox, which never lets me down, and I also got a screen protector, so my phone looks brand new every year. For instance, if you have gym shorts on, they'll slide out of your pocket easily, especially when sitting down.

iPhone 17 Pro Defender Series Pro XT Case

Clear, rugged, dual-layer, heavy-duty Black iPhone 17 Pro case with grippy edges guards against the drops, dirt, scrapes and bumps that come with busy life.

Getting this for DH when it drops in price or is on Amz used etc - he needs super protective for work, and while it's bulky it's the best one imo. Love this color combo too. Is the XT much different? Some are saying yes, some no.

yes that's what the video guy is also telling that the orange feels too good in real life

Guys suggest me a PD 3.2 charger for 17 Pro max. Cannot find any PD 3.2 one, though PD 3.0 ones are available. Need it in max 20W or 30W

I think Gaedfly was asking because there’s no state field. Are you saying that people should put their state’s code (e.g. “CA”) next to the order number in the Reference Number box? Or were you referring to country/territory field and not a state field?

State = Country/Territory hehe

State = Country/Territory hehe

Thanks for the confirmation!

UPS app displays the tracking number automatically if you are a ups my choice member. My labels are created but not shipped yet. As it’s next day air saver, I guess it will be shipped on Thursday(9/18).

this video is so underwhelming for being the first general public hands on vid for the 17.

Just popped up in My Choice. Hallelujah. Not yet ready for shipment but has a tracking #.

 

[bbdub]

Odd. Mine went to preparing to ship yesterday and now went back to processing. Still has a delivery date for Friday. Can’t wait for Friday!

 

[Xoterin]

Im starting to worry, no movement at all, no charge

I got charged around lunchtime. Label created at 1am. Coming from Lebanon TN, which is 6 hours away from me.

Please do not worry. I’ve experienced phones flying from China to Louisville to South Carolina in a day.

I bought this for my Pro Max. I also posted pictures here.

Dímelo, bro... compré un iPhone 17 Pro Max de 256GB. (El anaranjado, claro). ¿Y tú?

True... I would need another phone to log in to first to see how everything is presented. Again, some messages from people I've not spoken to in 10 years I wouldn't care here or there if I had them.

Voicemails I have saved the audios anyway and thanks to visual voicemail, seem to stay on the handset even when updating.

I think you might be overthinking. Under the assumption that you have a current (non 17) iPhone:

New phone comes. Put your old phone aside (don’t wipe, trade in, etc. yet) Start from scratch. Load messages from icloud. Verify everything looks good (it likely will). Now you know your new phone is fresh from scratch plus has your valued memories. Do whatever you want with your old phone.

Also, maybe more importantly than whether your phone is a fresh install or not. Please use some software like iMazing to pull off all of the messages and pdf or hard copy them. That way you can have them forever irrespective of phones and software.

The tracking info for my second phone just appeared in the UPS app. Like my other phone, it’s shipping from Carlisle, PA. We’re almost there.

Todo bien, todo bien. Yo me fui anaranjado también pero 2TB. Mi esposa me regaló par de covers también, ahora estoy en búsqueda de un screen protector aunque todavía no se porque tendré Apple care

 

[Ninjja]

Nothing for me yet. I think Apple is holding out till the last minute. I've been on preparing for shipment with Friday delivery since last week.

what are the odds a hold at ups location request change will still get delivered on the 19th? My driver wont leave it without a signature and wouldnt accept the paper form last year
