Apple Watch Series 3 Pre-Order Thread

For residential they usually deliver last. In my neighborhood after 2:00pm.

 

Had the smoothest pickup at Best Buy. Walked in, showed ID, left with product. 2 minutes.

 

Aw! That's so sweet!

 

It’s here! Now for Work to end. I can’t wait to get home and activate it. Anyone else with Verizon try activating yet?

 

Totally agree!! Sometimes it's very late afternoon! I'm going to be waiting awhile, I'm sure...

Oh! You know I will!! HaHa

 

My watch has been delivered! Now I just have to finish a little thing called work to go home and play around with it.

 

Watch is awesome so far. I still have an issue with wrist detection though. Sucks because without it, no Apple Pay. I can’t seem to get it to sense my wrist for toning though, never have been, since series 1!

Any help?

 

Yes, it but it took 2 tries. I think the servers are slammed. The first time upon initial setup it said it couldn't activate, but tried again later and it went through fine and was pretty painless

 

Still waiting on UPS. They always get to my house late in the evening.

 

Good to know, thanks!

 

Anyone pick up their preorder in store? Are you able to pickup early or do you have to be within the time window? Thanks!

 

My LTE 38mm SS w/Soft White Sport Band that had a delivery date of 10/6–10/13 (ordered 2:05 am 9/15) is now preparing to ship w/debit pending. Anyone seeing similar?

Looking *SO* forward to updating from series 0!

 

Apple Watch series 3 is crazy fast! Battery life on the non cellular is absolutely amazing. Been using it non stop all day and still at a 100%!!

 

Yup working just fine!

 

Me too. Except when I’m not home then they surprisingly show up earlier.

 

Lol. It seems like UPS always comes earlier if I'm getting insurance documents or a cable. But not when new Apple products come out........

 

Yes. I have the exact same delivery date range and mine has pending charge and preparing to ship now. Hopefully we will have ours by end of next week!

 

Mine is in Shanghai right now, will probably be on UPS81 tonight from Shanghai to Anchorage. Wonder if yours is with mine!

 

Does the S3 need to be running with iOS 11? I'm holding off on updating my iPhone

what color band is that on the top/midnight blue?

 

Count me in the group with UPS drivers making us wait until the bitter end. Can’t wait to see my ceramic gray!

 

Yes because it comes installed with watchOS 4.

 

Came here to say this. The delay in this delivery is absolute bull. I'm going back to in-store pickup for all new products.

 

Just picked mine up from my local Apple Store, haven’t done much with it Just but there is a definite noticeable speed improvement. Also loving the red crown!

 

Still waiting...on UPS...

 

It is a delight to behold!
