No, apparently it's Monday. The trade-in box came today. It was very confusing. My SO will let me use that phone until my real one comes. I'm still going to try to get one tomorrow morning though.



No, the apple store literally told us today, starting tomorrow at 6AM we can go on the site or Apple's app and order a phone and choose pickup in store. They are getting shipments every day.
Ok... I thought you were talking about the reservation system

actually they were wrong (if they were referring to this)... US does not have that

https://www.macrumors.com/2017/10/31/iphone-x-reserve-and-pickup/

Apple confirmed to us that Reserve and Pickup will not be available in the United States, but standard, pay-ahead in-store pickup is available.

Update: Apple has adjusted the time for reservations to November 4 at 6:00 a.m. in Canada, Mexico, Switzerland, and the United Arab Emirates. Also, the pages in Australia and Hong Kong now say to check back on October 27, so it's unclear if reservations will still be offered in those countries.

Ordered a SG T-Mobile 256 from Apple Store app and received order confirmation 12:10 am PDT. Order number W444*. Still in the Nov 17-24 window.

Saw the posts here about wide iPhone X availability and decided to stop by the store.

I went to the Apple Store (Highland Village in Houston) around 2 pm today, saw a line for people picking up their reservations, and asked an employee if there were any iPhones available for walk-in. He said no, and that the people waiting in line were up at 2 am (midnight PDT) on October 27 ordering their phones. I said “Me too! And my delivery date is still Nov 17-24.” He seemed shocked, and told me to check stock at 6 am for in-store pickup tomorrow morning. So either the MacRumors post or the Apple employees are wrong. I guess we’ll find out tomorrow at 6 am.

Ordered my 64gb space gray through Apple website (paid in full) at 3:12am EDT. 2-3 weeks. Hasn't moved, no charge on card, no bump. Was walking through Target today and asked the Tech guy if they had any iphone X left. "Yes, have only sold 2 today. Got 8 delivered to the store so I've got 6 left." Managed to get the same specs that I ordered from Apple and a bonus, didn't have to pay any sales tax as I'm visiting New Hampshire for the weekend and they don't charge sales tax in this state (would have paid nearly $70 in Florida). Saved ~$70 in tax and got my phone 3 weeks before Apple was going to deliver it. Sometimes you just have to take matters into your own hands to solve others problems. This is the 2nd launch day phone I've had to buy in the store because Apple couldn't deliver. Best of luck to the rest of you.
 
Ordered 256gb Grey about 12:14am and was Nov 17-24 but it shipped yesterday for Monday delivery (Nov 6th). Order # W5284XXXXX
 
Next fight to Anchorage is in 13 hours. Let’s hope our phones catch a ride!
Which flight is that? I only found the UPS99 flight after it was in air from Incheon Int. I never found the flight that delivered our phones to there from china
 
Apple is not launching the reservation system in the U.S at the moment

So you will need to check something like I stock now

Actually I was just told the same thing at the store by the person managing the line managing the available stock. I asked him a couple of times to confirm and he said all available inventory will be released at 6am to see on apple.com. I read the same thing as you, though, so I was surprised, too.
 
No, you


Yeah, they were talking about ordering it online for in-store. Not a reservation system like there was last year.
you can also still walk in and buy it.. (of course you need to make it to the store before it sells out)..

But thats why I set alerts to notify me the moment they get stock in
 
No movement on my 17-24 ATT Next but I am going to suck it up and just be patient. I don’t have the time to sit hours at the store. Just cross my fingers that I get it a bit early...
I’m doing the same thing
 
Its a different system...


if you're not one of the people with an iPhone X waiting for you at an Apple Store on Friday, you can try again the next day. And the next.

Apple, like in years past, will be offering an option for people to check online for iPhone X availability in nearby stores and then pick up the device. In the US, you'll have to pay for the phone online at the time you're placing it on hold. In other countries, like the UK, you pay when you get to the store and have the device in hand.

In the US you need to pay online... In other countries you pay when you get to the store
 
According to iStockNow.com, my Apple Store (90 minutes away though :() has all versions available for Online Pickup. I am tempted to do this, however, I think I will just suck it up and wait. I have a feeling our iPhone Xs will get bumped up once the first batch is delivered (so today) and we will see a relatively good bump ourselves!

Since mine is coming on Monday, I went to local T-mobile to take a sneak peek first. Am I the only one who’s really disappointed?
1. The battery icon is annoying the hell out of me
2. The rounded edges look Really round and kiddy
3. The screen ratio is also absurdly long
4. The notch still annoys me big time...
5. If Steve Jobs was alive he would never approve of such a wall paper as one of the factory pre-set....

Okay I know I complain a lot but I’m not the only one here right? I’m almost tempted to switch for an 8 which sounds like a crazy idea even to myself

Anyone know definitively if tomorrow morning we will be able to purchase and pick up an iPhone X?

If it’s shipping you can’t cancel your order. It’ll come soon enough.

I don’t know that anyone “definitely” knows, but at my store they seemed to indicate they still have supply tonight and that would be made available in the morning. Whether or not they get additional stock, probably also depends on the location.

Best bet is to log on at 6am and check.
