Actually Apple only allowed for initial reviews. Nothing truly in depth yet. Most didn’t get much time with the iPhones. Not sure why Apple chose to go this route with the iPhone X.

Here’s an update for those that are worrying* or interested in tracking.
Any London/UK/Europe folks on here, please keep an eye out for scans about 2-4 hours from now. There are two Cargolux 747’s departing CGO. One to London Stansted at 12:50am China time and another at 2:15am China time to Luxembourg. Then around 9am China time there’s FOUR 747 departures to AMS, LUX and Hahn. That’s a lot of LIFT capacity!
For those in the US, there’s a 2:00am ZZ/CGO 747 departure to Shanghai in addition to the numerous 737F departures to Shenzhen and Shanghai
(I’m not worried-just geeking out at the airplane logistics)
There is another possibility on a flight leaving CGO at 12:50 am. SF Airlines is a company that UPS has a working relationship with in China. The flight is going to Guangzhou which is in the HongKong area. They could easily be trucked to Hong Kong.
Just a thought although they don’t need to move till tomorrow.
I got the same case but in White. I had them delivered a few weeks back along with screen protector! It's a pretty solid case. was expecting it to be flimsy but it's actually not
This thread is going to get bombarded with posts when it does show a scan out of ZZ.
Yes, wife's day one 7 was defective (screen would not come on but phone was on) and we were able to replace it on day two at the store. They had a separate supply without retail packaging at the Genius Bar.
Apple is really conservative when it comes to delivery dates. They would much rather have someone get a later delivery date and then be pushed up rather than have to postpone a delivery that was originally scheduled for the launch day. Demand has been high (Apple acknowledged it) and I think they just wanted to make sure no one was disappointed.
Doesn't look like the Liquid Armor Case is compatible with the iX...unless I am missing something...
Yeah, I just read back in the some of this thread. I was locked out until now so I didn't have the ability to see where everyone else's was at.
Potentially yes.

Great review on TechCrunch where the reviewer took the phone to Disneyland for real life use!

I was just looking up flights from several airports in China (HKG, PVG, SZX) to Anchorage-without looking IIRC, there’s 5-7 scheduled freighter flights out of Shanghai/PVG to Anchorage. Some UPS some Yangtze River some Polar Air Cargo. That’s opposed to nothing set from SZX-ANC or Guangzhou to ANC. This is like a huge avgeek challenge to me
Off topic but so you guys know, I’m noticing you don’t have to swipe up and hold it for multitask to come about. Some swipe just a tad up and go the the right and slide of the screen. So one continues motion without stopping. Figured I’d just share that.
The 3:19 mark. This is not the only person I’ve seen do this.
We (the EU people) can't track our orders via UPS and we most likely won't get a tracking ID for our iPhones until Nov 2 (if the delivery date is Nov 3).Here’s an update for those that are worrying* or interested in tracking.

Apple ships the iPhones for EU customers in batches to a warehouse in Europe (e.g. Eindhoven, NL or Prague, CZ) and from there, the boxes get a shipping label and a tracking ID.
When Apple's order status changes to shipped, we finally get some tracking info. Before that, we get no tracking info at all.
boo! :-( Well at least you know there’s a huge airlift coming to the EU from CGO ;-)
What was the departure scan? I got a 1039 departure scan!
