Logical meaning of within 30 days compared to in 30 or fewer days . . .

In the upcoming days - English Language Usage Stack Exchange In Australian English, "in the upcoming days" sounds strange "In the coming days" is acceptable but probably too formal, I agree with @BoldBen's comment that "In the next few days" is a better choice "In the next couple of days" also works, and arguably implies a slightly shorter time frame (the next few days could be 1-4 days, whereas the next couple of days probably means 2-3 days)
