Yeah, we get that. I have a 6, so it's three years old and due for a processor upgrade, an improved camera, and a fresh, full-capacity battery. I'll finally have Force Touch (or whatever it's called) instead of being left out, and I really need the Raise to Wake feature which isn't on the 6. The real biggie is the wireless charging; I've already gone thru a few Lightning cords as the plug wears out quickly.
So, it is somewhat of an improvement for me, even if it should really be called the 7s.
My watch3 still shows preparing for shipping on apple website and UPS tracking shows a shipping label created but not received by UPS facility yet. How is it going to make delivery by Friday? Anyone else still stuck in preparing for shipping status?
Mines the same way... i ordered at 2:02AM CDT and still showing preparing for shipment with no results on UPS or FedExI ordered my 8+ a few minutes after I was allowed to do so on Apple, and still my phone says preparing for shipment. Nothing in the UPS website either. I’m wondering how it’s going to get here by Friday...
One possibility is that a shipment to the US has already been made in bulk and then the individual units will ship today or tomorrow from within the country. If the source (once it becomes trackable) indicates it is coming from Alaska or Nashville or Houston, for example, that's likely what happened.
Good point about Fedex. I wonder if anyone else has had their devices ship out through fedex? I haven’t checked them yet.

Based on the fact that you can still order several types of iPhone 8’s and still receive it by the 22nd, I’m guessing you’re right, most must be here in bulk already waiting to ship out from the USA.
