Hey everybody, so like alot of us here, I am dying to get away from my current phone and into the new iPhone, closest to launch day as possible! However with every iPhone release, the demand is going to far surpass the supply. My question to you guys is, would my chances be better of getting an IPhone x on launch day by ordering straight through Apple website, or my carrier website? (Verizon.) I ask this because I don't want to have to go through the Apple website and have something go wrong because it can't communicate with the Verizon server to "shake hands" or whatever. But if the chances are better through the Apple website then I'll take the risk. Or are the chances of me getting the iPhone X on launch day roughly the same either way through carrier or Apple?

Thanks for the advice guys!
