Just checked: Device shipped from Fresno, CA arriving Friday, 10/23 by 9:00 PM

Didn’t expect it any sooner, so this is fine. Signed up for text alerts in case there’s an issue. Otherwise, he picked up a clear Tech 21 case and a Zagg screen protector from Best Buy yesterday. Then he has additional cases and iCarez screen protectors coming from Amazon. He’s ready.

I just can’t wait to see how his Blue is going to look!

Me too! I live in the Bay Area and surprised it’s starting in Fresno. Interestingly I ordered through Verizon on Saturday(12 64gb blue), and my order still does not show up on the site. I can’t even look it up. I suspect this is the order. I have a Pro 128 blue thats slated for Oct 30.

For this delivery, I am holding it at a CC center so fingers crossed itll say its ready to be picked up early...fingers tightly crossed lol

Hey guys, I’m in a pickle.

I am going to pre order a Blue 12 PRO MAX when they go live.

however;

I have an OLD plan. Talk and text 900 with unlimited data.

I have kept this plan because from what I have been told, it does not call for any throttling. I sometimes reach 80+gig’s a month and my phone never slows down.

will my plan support 5G ?
Just add 5g ultra wide band separately. I have a granfathered plan also so I’m just gonna add it for $10

I was thinking of preordering the 12 Pro Max through the Apple App and Verizon App to see which system would come up first. The Apple app has seen some issues as well, so I think I’m going to log in the Apple App on my iPhone, Verizon app on my SE 2020 and Apple.com on my laptop at the same time.
My personal opinion is go with Verizon app 9 times of of 10 the preorders go live early and I’ve never had an issue getting my phone on release day since the iPhone 3gs

The iPhones from the carriers are usually already in the States when pre-orders start. They have to handle their own logistics so it makes sense that their devices have already arrived from China and are just waiting for orders to begin.

I have never picked up an iPhone from a center before, but you usually can pick up a delivery that is held there once it's ready. You don't have to wait until end of day. Someone who knows better can probably provide more detail.
 
Verizon app is saying my phone will be delivered by tomorrow (Oct 20) but UPS is showing as October 23rd. Still showing my phone in cali and it hasn't been anywhere. im in Maryland.

I had my carrier device held at the CC a couple times and picked it up once it opened for business.

I’ve only been with Verizon for 2 months, so I was a little hesitant to use the app along with the Apple Store app when preorders go live.
 
I’m in Pennsylvania. Still no update yet. still “preparing order” hope it updates soon or over night.

I'm a new Verizon customer (switching from Sprint) and preordered the iPhone 12 Pro 128GB Pacific Blue at preorder opening 10/16. My confirmation email says arrival 10/23 but when I clicked to track my order, it says 10/30. Anyone else have experience with this?

I also got my trade-in kits today. 🧐

Also switching to verizon, my email and tracking both say 10/30 for expected ship date. I'm not able to create a 'myverizon' login until I actually get the phone which is a bit of a hassle.
 
This is always my least favorite part - waiting for the tracking number while others have theirs. I’m still waiting in Ohio. My phone is coming from a location code beginning with N.

No one has the phone yet. The pictures are leaks. Video embargo isn't lifted until tomorrow. The stores are probably getting them, but they still can't put them out yet.
 
No shipping info yet on my 2 iPhone 12 Pros. Still says estimated delivery Oct 23. Hope it changes soon. This is only my second ever preorder so hope all goes smoothly!
