That normally means the there is an inbound shipment from China or India (This year) that will arrive on Thursday, Sept. 18th in Ft Worth, and ship via FedEx on the 18th and still reach you on Friday the 19th before 7 PM local time.

status like this is normal?
 
I have one FedEx order in Texas like you’ve seen and one UPS order coming from Indiana that has the word phone along with other acronyms.

No movement over night. Was hoping to see something. Anything lol.
 
I ordered mine (256gig Orange Pro Max) through ATT at 10:04PM on September 14th and as of now it says it’s won’t ship out until November 7th….. Damn near 2 months! Are they really that backed up?

I’m guessing the fact that it’s Next Day shipping we won’t see movement…depending on where you live…until at the earliest tonight/tomorrow sometime.
Not true, I ordered three PM - one left TX last night at 11, other two still waiting on tracking - all show shipping date of 18th in ATT app.
 
Ordered a 1TB Deep Blue PM at 6:59CDT Friday (the AT&T store opened a few minutes early, so process started about 6:55AM or so). Immediately got a Thursday the 18th estimated shipping date, and yesterday FedEx started showing a 2 lb box coming from Ft. Worth in their possession with a delayed delivery of Friday the 19th between 6:40AM and 10:40AM, for whatever that’s worth. Smooth as glass. If your estimated shipping date is the 18th, don’t freak out. You’ll see it soon.

The second PM on my account just appeared on UPS. So one is getting delivered by FedEx (has been sitting in Fort Worth for a couple days now) and one is getting delivered by UPS (still waiting for possession, and there are two 1.3lb boxes despite the order only have one phone). Both deliver on Friday. FedEx phone shipping from Texas while UPS phone shipping from Indiana.

Yeah I have two phones coming (17 regular and 17 PM) have same thing. One in each carrier and same locations. So weird.

Apparently you just like going against anything I say. The key phase in my statement was “depending where you live”…I guess I should’ve added depending on which carrier is shipping your phone as well. UPS has shown no movement just a label created and FedEx has shown movement in Texas but not to whoever your local DC is yet.

My point is the phones will make it to its location on Friday regardless of what AT&T’s site says or the lack of current movement in which ever carrier is shipping your phone. As long as their site says shipped Sept 18th you SHOULD be fine. At the end of the day none of us control this and we are at the mercy of the carrier.

Actually all three phones are AT&T and all going to same address.
