Well I’m glad I got my account issues resolved on launch day, I had ordered a keyboard and mouse earlier last week and for some reason locked my account into fraud protection hell. Oddly enough everyone I spoke to was unable to help, save one supervisor who was able to fix it.
Ordered 2 phones when preorders opened but those are still showing as not shipped, so we’ll see if the fraud lock delays driver for me

Looks like 128 and 256 are getting labels created early. Im 1TB and nothing yet date say 9/24
Got tracking for my 128gb grey 13PM, but apparently Verizon has locked the package down to where I can't request a hold at the UPS center to pick up first thing in the morning of the 24th. My 13PM ordered from Apple I was able to request a pickup no problem.
Same here. Ordered via Verizon on the afternoon of the 17th and it was already pushed out to Oct 1st. Not the worst thing in the world but would certainly wouldn't complain if it came earlier.
I ordered from Verizon. I just received an email stating that my package will be here tomorrow. I’m sure Verizon will have the phone stay at the UPS facility, but there are reports every year of a phone slipping through the cracks and being delivered early. I ordered a Sierra Blue Pro Max 256GB.
Verizon made it sound like it needed to go to the address in my account (which is my house)
Mine still hasn't shipped (13 Mini)
I have been on the pre-order bandwagon since the iPhone 4 (first one available through Verizon), and the annual cadence since the iPhone 6. I skipped out on the iPhone X (opted for the 8 instead), and have been lucky enough to score the phone within the first week of availability each time. However, this was the first time that my preorder went though with 0 issues. Most of my issues were imagined, meaning that they ended up not being an actual problem, and stemmed from reading these forums, and lack of transparency and communication from Verizon lol. I remember one time, I didn't get my tracking number until AFTER the phone arrived. Moral of my post, is that if you ordered your phone on Friday the 17th, and were "told" delivery by 24 Sep, don't worry yourself sick. You will most likely see it this Friday

On an unrelated note, has there been a poll setup somewhere that shows the break down of colors that folks are getting? I have seen several posts mention gold and sierra blue, but I am curious what the most "popular" one is? I grabbed a iPhone 13 Pro Max 512 GB in Sierra Blue. I tend to get the "new" color each year.

I ordered from AZ... as a brand new Verizon customer (opened new account online during pre-order)... as about the same time as you... 256 Silver iPhone 13 Pro Max and 128 Blue iPhone 13 Pro... and a red iPhone SE for my son... and had tracking on Sunday morning.
But with services like UPS My Choice or FedEx Delivery Manager, packages will show up in the account even if Verizon fails to update the status. That is why I am getting worried after seeing other people's phones getting shipped.I have been on the pre-order bandwagon since the iPhone 4 (first one available through Verizon), and the annual cadence since the iPhone 6.

I am pretty sure the Sierra Blue is the most popular color. Technically all colors are new: 13's Gold is not the same as 12's
Tracking for all three? I would expect tracking quickly for the SE as it should have been in stock.
My 1TB Pro Max is still “we’re preparing your order”. My wife’s 256GB Pro however is already in the state I live in.
Yes... Actually... the tracking didn't come for the SE until later. I think because it is a new account, Verizon is trying to have them all arrive the same day... so they shipped SE a few days later.
Preordered the 13 Pro Max Graphite In 512GB and have had ZERO movement smh
anyone else the same?
anyone else the same?
Ive gathered data from various subreddits and Apple / iPhone related forums. The overall consensus I’ve gathered is that 13 Pro Max phones more than likely will not ship until tomorrow at the latest.
I preorder the same exactly iPhone as you and no shipping for me either smh
