Just saw that a shipment has appeared in UPS My Choice scheduled for tomorrow. Coming from Prague as always. (Germany)

The reference number is the order number so I checked and it is the tracking for my iPhone. Not tracking for my Apple Watch yet, though.
 
I don’t think so. Everything I order from Apple comes from their Italian warehouse near Milan. Despite not being “close” to their warehouse they only begin the shipping process of the products late in the afternoon of the day before delivery. They arrive in Lisbon the next day early in the morning. And if it’s DHL there’s a stopover in Spain during the night.

We have a similar situation in Poland - almost everything from Apple is shipped from Prague. One exception was my MacBook Pro which was shipped directly from China factory.
 
I wish Apple would deliver the phone to me via DHL. UPS always comes at very random times, e.g. 11am, 1:30pm, 4:00 PM, 5:20PM..

I logged into my UPS account and I see the phone is in the Czech Republic in an Apple distribution centre. In the Store app it is still “Preparing to ship”. I’m in Nuremberg, Germany :)

I just found out that I'm able to track my shipment on the UPS site, using order number as reference. My iPhone is in Czechia now.
 
Expecting my 2 orders tomorrow (France). No notification from DHL yet but I'm used to getting these late afternoon.

Happy delivery day to all !

You can also try tracking your orders by reference on UPS site.
 
Did anyone who ordered from Amazon.de see any movement in their shipping status?

Not yet, but that shouldn't worry you. Since my device is said to be delivered on saturday via amazon.de I expected Amazon to receive their units on friday and ship them to customers immediately. With Prime shipping that would explain the saturday delivery date I was promised.

Best case scenario: Amazon already has the devices and ships them today - in that case they could arrive friday, but I guess they can't or aren't allowed to ship them before release day.

What's the delivery date for your order?

Weird. Have gotten the text message from DHL just now, and still no email from Apple notifying the shipping (Lisbon, PT). Now I have no idea what it is, it could be the iPhone, the Apple Watch or the extra sport loop I ordered. I guess I’ll soon find out during the day as more items are shipped.
 
Just got an sms from Tele2. Package is registered to be shipped with PostNord here in Sweden. Should get it tomorrow if all is right with the world. 😊

You could probably check the weight/dimension of the parcel. I think DHL provides this information - not sure.
 
... fellow Austrian here: I just received notification from DHL Express indicating delivery tomorrow - the package is in Prague right now ...
 
I just found my tracking in UPS web. Searching through reference with order number.

Label created in Italy.

Monday - Wednesday. But I’m not from Germany (Croatia). Hope it ships tomorrow 🙃

Sounds about right and kind of confirms my guess that they will ship the devices tomorrow. Since I'm in Germany I'll benefit from next day delivery while you'll have to wait for international shipping. Considering the distance between Germany and Croatia, Monday-Wednesday sounds decently fast.

I ordered 3 iPhone Pros 512GB and already got the notification here in Lisbon.
