Has anyone that has ordered through Apple directly for delivery found their tracking number for their phone yet?
 
Just got Charged for my Apple Watch Series 11 in Titianim and AirPods Pro 3. It looks like everyone that preordered devices is getting charged today. Which is a good thing! I am super excited!
 
I'm a little confused, I can't directly trade-in to Apple and finance an unlocked iPhone? It's locking me into specific carriers... When did this change? (Last model I financed was a 14 Pro Max)
AFAIK it’s been that way for the past few years.
 
Seeing this on my UPS account. iPhone Air from Apple with a delivery date for this Friday. Do we think this is for the trade-in? The package weight shows as 1lb.

I was charged for my ISPU Apple Watch.

The phone will be delivered because of a pre-order snafu.

I might see if they have any to buy and I’ll return the one shipped to me..
 
The last few years, my trade in kit came after my iPhone. That could be the real deal.
I’m seeing the label for my trade in kit via FedEx, so I’m assuming that’s on the way. Although I do seem to recall the last time I did this four years ago, the trade in kit did come after the phone. But, I’m not seeing any tracking details for the phone yet. I imagine that should be coming very soon. Very excited to be upgrading from my 13 Pro. It’s been a great phone for me, but looking forward to new.

Yep, trade in kit came from FedEx and phone came from UPS when I purchased it through Apple.

per order there was a limitation of 2 iphones, this time as well
Was there a way to order two phones in the same order? For pre-ordering, I only was able to order each one separately, two web orders. I used the Apple store in Mac Safari.
 
I remember those lines and the store employees lined up and clapped. Everyone was hyped and excited
This is actually from the iPhone 4 launch in 2010. That was a year when preorders got completely screwed up (typical then) and I ended up with a “reservation “ instead. They had lines for reservations and walk-ins once we got into the mall, and ended up telling the walk-ins to give up and go home by about 10 am.

What is it about the iPhone that had y'all waiting in line for hours?
The same thing that has people preordering and talking in forums about it for over a week, while waiting. I always had a good time talking with others, made a few friends, and for me, it was fun. Would I do it again today? Probably not. I’m older and I’d rather chat from my couch at home. LOL
 
I see a lot of posts about a 9/25 delivery date for pro max being updated to 9/19…Mine is 9/24-9/25..no changes as of yet 😫
