Hmmm. The iphone 13 pro allegedly coming my way weighs in at 2.1 pounds. I also ordered a 13 pro max for my wife. Is it possible the two devices are in the same shipping box?
 
Got a tracking number even after the billing difference. They’ve switch from FedEx 2nd to UPS Next Day coming out of Fresno 1.2 pounds.

If they were done in the exact same order then yeah its quite very possible its all in the same box.
 
Has anyone with a 1TB Pro or Pro Max received shipping info yet? Mine was ordered right as preorder started and is "estimated to deliver on Sep 24," but doesn't appear to have shipped yet.

***and within an hour or so of my posting that, it shipped via FedEx - but delivery can't be modified to be picked up at a FedEx location ***

Read through the posts in this thread. Many have/many have not
 
Anyone had any luck in the past leaving a note and signature for UPS to leave the package? I don’t think anyone will be home and Verizon restricts signing online or redirecting to access point.

I’ve had zero luck in convincing a driver to leave my iphone via note. I attempted this method with my iPhone X and XS Max in previous years to no avail. Do you have UPS my choice? I think there may be an option to pick it up at your local distribution center or have it preemptively signed via your UPS choice account IF Apple/Your carrier has allowed it.

Mine moved to next day shipping. Got all the emails today.

I received the shipping info for my 1TB Pro Max yesterday however surprisingly enough, it’s coming via FedEx, not UPS. My wife’s 256 Max is being delivered via UPS. Gotta love covid-19 affected logistics.

I've left signed notes in the past without issue, but it sounds like it is hit or miss/up to the driver's discretion. Fingers crossed it will work this year because I can't take the day off.

I’ve tried leaving a singed note before. Didn’t work. They left a call tag, which I could sign and they would leave it the next day. Stupid, what’s the difference.

My experience has been that UPS absolutely will not leave a package at the door on the first delivery. They have to attempt once and if they miss you, then you can schedule for pickup or redelivery. Unfortunately it would probably delay you getting your new phone until Monday.
 
My biggest concern with delivery right now is FedEx. They have been notoriously understaffed with massive delays in last mile delivery recently. Will it be fine, probably… They don’t give much confidence in their delivery services though.

This is insanity. My cancelled iPad is ready to be shipped. My cancelled phone is nowhere to be found. On hold with Verizon on the way to the Apple store, and the phone system asks if I need a charger for my new phone?! 🤦‍♀️
 
I had originally preordered & had a 9/24 ship date but freaking version canceled my order and I had to reorder on 9/21 & now my estimated ship date is October 1st 😡
Same issue! Did you have a payment issue that couldn't be corrected? They told me to try going in the store. I'm going to talk to Apple first. I will never pre-order from Verizon again.

On way to apple to do what exactly? Tomorrow is the launch. It should be easy to find one in stock tomorrow if that’s your goal. The only hiccup now is if Verizon cancelled it or find another line to upgrade. Pop in at Verizon at open.
