I noticed my phone showed preparing to ship late last night, card was charged tax, now it shoes back to processing on the apple app. Have you guys experienced this?
 
Finally pulled the trigger on a 512 gb midnight green 11 pro, because I am a sucker. it does feel like a completely unnecessary indulgence—I could throw a new battery in my iPhone 8 and I’m sure it would last me another two years at least—but darn it, I skipped the X and the XS and I want one now. And with so many financing options it just feels so easy...like, what’s $50+ a month? I’ll cut down on the lattes and the phone is practically paid for, right? Obviously I’m just looking for validation here, will anyone oblige? 😄
 
I'm not sure if I'm posting correctly, however. I ordered with sprint 9/14 was given 10/4 -10/11 as a delivery day. Today I did a live chat with them because I'm seeing people with later times see movement. They inform me that I have been moved back a week. Only slightly irritated. Like I assume they weren't going to tell us.

We all have things that make us happy. I think 99.9% of people here agree new tech is one of them so no one will shame you for buying a phone. Plus most of us upgraded from the XS and that is even more unnecessary than coming from an 8.
 
Hey my dude I have 4-11 on my delivery date and I haven't seen anything happen. I do still sorta expect to get it sooner than they say, but who knows. When did you order? I was a day late and did mine the 14 of September.

I ordered day of launch at maybe 10am EST. So 2 hours after orders opened and my delivery date is Oct 4-11. My piece of junk X speaker intermittently doesn't work so unfortunately need to upgrade.

Who did you order with and what color? Mine says it's 10/4 10/11 but when they checked they said it was a week after what it shows me.

I've got your back. I like saving money and make an effort to all the time. However, I like upgrading every year and the $60 a month is more than a worthwhile splurge for me.
 
Anyone in the 10/1-10/4 group: I am about 90% confident that our phones are on this plane:

Other than the Anchorage scans, the scan times lined up with flights departing ZZ and Hong Kong. The Anchorage scans appeared on UPS before CPA80 even arrived in Anchorage. I'm pretty sure we'll start seeing import scans after 5:45pm eastern this evening.

I wish mine was on that one. I live in ky, I was put in the 10/4- 10/11 group with sprint, but talked to them today and I've been pushed back another week into October now as fun as that sounds

yeah, that’s one reason I like being here. I take a bit of grief from the non-enthusiast crowd. :)

I have a feeling I’m screwed since we can not use the pre sign from UPS. I am never home due to work unless it comes in the evening. And one phone is my wife’s and that’s in her name so I couldn’t even pick them both up at ups This sucks

If it’s the same address you can pick it up for her. You just needed a copy of the tracking and sometimes a copy of their ID.

What delivery date were you? I was the 10/1 - 10/4 group and it’s still steadily saying it will be delivered Oct 1

You won’t regret it one bit. I love mine, and you will love yours.

What is the point if you do not enjoy yourself every once and awhile. Enjoy your new phone when it arrives.
