Anyone has an idea of how long is the transition in Louisville? Mine will arrive at 11PM and I wonder if it can make a 2AM flight.
Gosh I'm treating this phone like it was my grandma flying.
 
My UPS tracking is still showing in Incheon. I see the UPS 99 flight out earlier in the day to Ankorage. Maybe mine didn't make it. Or UPS tracking is updating slowly.
 
Have you seen one tracking screenshot in this thread that didn't have a shipment travel from Hong Kong to Alaska? Also, how does this site know there are iPhones on those flights? I'm not trying to make a point. Just asking.
Yes. Mine.

Apple stores in Manhattan NY show that they have all models in stock and available for order and in store pick-up tomorrow for Verizon models. Must have just received a delivery this evening.

Time to finally upgrade my 2011 Lumia phone!
My choices are basically two: iPhone 8+ or iPhoneX.

I do have some questions though.
  1. Whichever iPhone I am going to buy, I will buy it from Toronto, Canada. I am interested in a carrier free, unlocked iPhone in order to be able to use it with a Greek sim exclusively. Should I just go ahead and buy a regular iPhone from the shelf or should I ask for a particular model?
  2. iPhone X: Can i pre-order it and pick it up from an Apple store or pre-orders concerns only home deliveries? Moreover, when they mention "available on 3rd of November", I suppose that you have to stand on the usual waiting line outside an Apple Store in order to get it?
I would be so glad if anyone could help me!


Hi there,

I set up the alarm for 03:00 AM Canada time in order to pre-order the iPhone X, I woke up in 03:30 AM and the delivery time was 5-6 weeks. At that point, I said to my self "never mind, I'll just go with another phone". There was no way I would line up in a queue for hours and hours to wait for a phone.

On Wednesday 1st, I saw outside Eaton Center Toronto the first person ready to camp for iPhone X. I decided to ask an employee about the availability: "We do have supplies but it will be difficult to have it day 1".

Friday 3rd, around 2:15 PM, i was again at Eaton Center and decided to take my chances and pay a visit to Apple Store, mainly to check in person the new iPhone X. After asking some employees, I ended up in a 5 minutes queue where I ordered the iPhone X with availability 2 hours later. At 05:30 PM, I was walking out of Apple Store with my iPhone X.

Long story short: did not pre-order, lined up in a queue for about 10 minutes in total (taking into consideration the time I was waiting to actually fulfill my same day order), got an iPhone X on launch day without any hassle at all.

I ended up buying the leather case and the screen protector as well too.
So far, very happy with my new smartphone!:)
 
I wonder if the reason why most of us wont get our phones until Monda is because of 1) Veterans Day is Observed on the 10th 2/ Obvioulsy they dont typically deliver on the weekend. Wait nevermidn they do deliver on Veterans Day and sometimes Saturday. Mine left Alaska 6 hours ago I think heading for Louisville. Maybe Ill get lucky this Friday instead
 
scheduled Delivery:

Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later.

My status updated to the above.
 
my iPhone was shipped but now its hung up in clearance hell. delivery date is 11/14
Same as mine, but I don’t have a delivery quote :/
[doublepost=1510213105][/doublepost]Too bad I can’t cancel my order and get my upgrade back every store near me has X’s

Don't know if I'm the first of the AT&T Nov 20-27 group to get shipping notice today. But my Apple order for 64GB Space Gray just had status change from"Order in Progress" to "SHIPPED".. skipped entirely over "Preparing to Ship". That's new!

Though Apple Store app still says delivery estimate nov 20-27.. the Apple Store "text" that came thru said "by Nov 20". But then the simultaneous text from my UPS app shows "Delivers 11/15 by 2:30-6:30".

So -- don't know why all the conflicting data... but by next Wed I should have my phone.

Any others in the non-IUP carrier group get bumped up from nov 20-27?

Mine has been in Korea since the 7th with no movement. It was scheduled for delivery on the 10th but now got pushed back 5 days. It’s like intentionally slowing down to meet the original Apple delivery time...

And now they are all gone. Sorry folks, wonder if they just sold out in minutes or that was an error of some sort by Apple :(


The don't think it's an error. I think they're campers and flippers that buy up the models. Check ny Craigslist - it's flooded with X's and there is so much supply on there that people are asking only $100 over the price they paid just to get them off their hands.

Because in 2 weeks from now, they will not get apples price for them.

Exactly my position now! I'm in Connecticut and many stores have them as of this morning. Ugh.
 
WOOT!! I just got up and that was fast plane movement cause I went back from 11/13 to getting delivered today!

Hmmm mine looks the same as yours except a day later on all times. Currently in HK, pushed from 10th to the 14th delivery. Hopefully I see the same movement as you from here on out and it gets re-updated to the 10th.
