  • I’m guessing the earliest they’ll bring over Face ID is when they redesign the Pros. Luckily I don’t notice the notch much after using it. It disappears for me just like it did on iPhones.

    Touch ID on MacBooks does make sense because of the built-in keyboard. The current way Apple implements Face ID still requires an additional user action. When you unlock your iPhone with Face ID you still need to swipe up to enter the Home Screen.

    If Apple brings Face ID to MacBooks I’m guessing they’ll implement something similar like a swipe up on the trackpad or key press.

    I don’t think they do the auto-login like Windows Hello.

  • Huh I wonder why a scammer would replace it with a real sealed iPhone 14 Pro Max vs a cheap copy like in OP’s case. Your phone wasn’t blacklisted or anything right?

    I wonder if in your case it was an honest mistake made at the Apple warehouse depot level vs an actual scam. I believe all of these packages and devices are serialized so mistakes like these shouldn’t happen.

    So in their investigation Apple basically thought you were trying to scam them by trying to swap for a newer model?


  • I’m curious to see how Apple handles the situation.

    In the tracking info, was it shipped from their warehouse overseas in China/India or from somewhere closer? I remember the iPhone 12 I bought came directly from China.

    I’m guessing it had to have been switched at the delivery level, maybe at the shipping warehouse or by a courier. The cardboard boxes Apple uses to ship their products are pretty standardized and obvious to people who’ve seen them before.

    What did Apple say? Did Apple have you bring the fake phone to the Apple Store or ship it back to them for investigation? Did they give you a time frame on when they’ll get back to you?
