Can you post a pic with the case? Mines going in a clear case too. Which glass protector did you use? I'm also worried about dust getting between the case and phone and scratching it so I might get a skin too.

Sure, let me round a couple pics up.. I'll also post the links for my case and glass shield.

I actually had that case in blue for my 6s but stopped using it after around 6-8 months cause the metal really got scuffed up from drops. Also, it was annoying to put on cause it was a super tight fit. I found a similar case by Ringke but the metal part snaps on so it looks easier to install. But I'm probably gonna scuff that up too so I might go with the fully clear TPU sides and PC back case they have (using it for my 6s now and just some light scratches on the back but nothing major).

That screen protector looks like it's not an edge to edge one which I want so it doesn't look like there's a screen protector on the phone, but I always have a problem with the edge to edge ones peeling up and/or cracking due to the case pushing it from the sides. If anyone has any recommendations for one that works with a case, let me know!

This case, the bumper comes off so you just stick your phone inside the rubber piece and then work the bumper on. It was a very easy installation. I spent more time with the glass shield trying to get it just right. Once applied though there were no bubbles at all. Very easy and satisfied with it. Knock on wood I never drop my iPhone. I dropped my 6S Plus once and it was on carpet thankfully. If anything, I am more worried about scratches to the case itself or discoloration. Of course, I would much rather replace a few dollar case than have scratches on the gorgeous finish lol.. Now that I said all of that, I'll drop my phone during my morning commute tomorrow lol.

I like to take off the case to clean the dust that gets in there about once a month or so and the metal part was super hard to take on and off, I even cracked it once while trying to do so. But perhaps they updated it for this generation to make it a hair looser so it's easier to take on and off.

I'm still @ 09/20... **** I hope it doesn't roll to Wednesday. I had made arrangements for a co-signer..

They should be forced to compensate for lost wages etc. when they don't deliver as promised. That would give ups an incentive to do right by their customers.

It's mostly ATTs ineptitude. Seriously they have no idea how to manage and fulfill orders at this volume. from previous experience with them, I wouldn't doubt that's Apple is asking ATT what they need, and ATT having no clue what or how to give Apple accurate numbers to fulfill their orders.

Unless miracle, start checking Apple's reservation system every morning.

Like I detailed before. I preordered an iPhone 5 through ATT a few minutes after it became available and ended up driving to the ATT store 2 weeks after launch to pickup the exact same model from store stock while my order was still on processing. I had even called to make sure all was ok with my preorder. That should tell you all you need to know.

It's more a problem with Apple fulfilling AT&T's request for phones more than anything. But, AT&T does need some help on deciding quantities for stores.
 
So does there seem to be any general window of time on how long orders take to go from pts to shipped? I ordered my 256GB JB 7+ 3:27am on the 9th. It wasn't expected to arrive until 10/18-10/31. Early Saturday it changed to PTS and a hold was placed on my card. Can I expect my phone to ship soon?

Did any of your tracking info change since Sunday morning? I wouldn't mind that much if the delivery date changed as long as the tracking info was showing movement.

Nope, no tracking info has changed. It was last scanned in ZhengZhou on Sunday the 18th at 8:32 pm. It seems a lot of people scanned rounded that time are getting Tuesday delivery estimates but mine has always said Wednesday. I was hoping mine would move up, not there's move back.

No movement here either. Last scan was on Sunday morning (8:29pm China time). UPS still shows delivery tomorrow.
 
Still showing 9/20 delivery but my last UPS tracking update still shows in China. I'm still 99% sure we will get our phones as promised tomorrow. Like the other posted above said, I expect sometime tonight or overnight for the tracking to update and list several different stops all at once. I've seen that happen before. Very excited!

I'm in the exact same boat as you are. Same model and everything (Verizon for me, enrolled in the IUP). PFS early Saturday morning and a charge for tax went on my card. Haven't seen any movement since.
