Well hoping I get both phones today getting iPhone 12 and the pro ordered both together separate tracking numbers though they been tracking all week but now this morning one out for delivery while the other still says at facility you would think they would both be out for delivery at the same time since both coming to my house so don’t understand why one states out for delivery and not the other one?
 
I went on the Verizon website this morning at 9:15am Eastern Time US and ordered a 12 pro 256 GB in Pacific Blue and they just emailed me to say it's ready for curbside pickup at my nearby Verizon store. Look forward to grabbing it in about 15 minutes.

Dang, if I didn't combine mine with an Apple Watch that I already received, I'd be trying to place a new order!
 
Ouch! I ordered on the 20th and have a ship date of 10/30. 256 GB 12 Pro Pacific Blue.

I too am eagerly watching for a bump up in my delivery date. ;)
I ordered the same thing at noon on 10/16 and I'm still showing 10/30. So I'd be surprised if they move things up. Granted, they usually do, but since I haven't heard anything for a week I'm not keeping my hopes up.
 
I hope this happens t me next week. I ordered on the 17th and currently have a shipment date of 11/4
Just called up VZW to get tracking information. ETA is Tuesday 10/27 which is still 3 days earlier than expected but I’ll take take it!

You have a much better chance that I do at seeing it move up...but I'm still gonna be hopeful. :D

Yup. A mid week delivery will work for me quite well. Everyone appears to be looking for some retail therapy in this cycle. Not surprising at all.

I will be pre-ordering the 12 Pro Max when ordering begins in a couple of weeks. I am a Verizon customer. Can anyone tell me what the advantages or any disadvantages would be in ordering through Verizon as opposed to ordering directly through Apple? Any significant advantages to either?

Thanks!
 
It's here! doing my set up now.

Fedex left it with no signature and didn't even ring the bell! I didn't see a nest doorbell notification so it was random luck that BF went out the front door to take one more piece of recycling out to the bins. Two cars were in the driveway so maybe they felt it was secure to leave it? I was literally in the middle of submitting my request for a half day when it came, so now I can play allll afternoon!

Ran outside thinking the UPS truck had my package 🤣. Sadly no so now sitting waiting while in a meeting.
 
I went on the verizon site this morning and ordered for pickup today. Still early here, so store hasn’t opened up yet. I assume I’ll get an email to pickup sometime after the store opens?

UPS came early today! Husband's Blue iPhone 12 arrived just after 11 this morning. Unfortunately since its going back, we can't open it unless we want to pay the $50 restocking fee. I forgot the box was smaller this year, so I thought it was a return box at first because it was so light.

Kind of sucks that we couldn't cancel the order over the phone, both Best Buy and Verizon had stock for the phone he wanted in-store to pick up today. We're going to Verizon later today to do the return to at least free up his line.
 
Does anyone having a hard time to activate your iPhone 12/12 PRO on verizon network? It has been on the activating screen for more than an hour now.......

Most likely it's because the network is getting hammered by those activating their phones. Also did you turn your old phone off and remove that sim card?

This year, Verizon wants you to activate with the new SIM card, so you can take full advantage of the enhanced 5G network. They even stated swapping sim from 4G phone into a 5G capable phone may prevent the phone from using the enhanced 5G network.
