iPhone 5 Shipped Thread

16GB white. Ordered at ATT website on OCT.1st. Get off back order on OCT 26th. And It was been shipped just now. But it is shipped from Fort Worth, TX not Zhengzhou, China. It seems I can get it sooner.
I just recheck all the posts and found almost everyone's iphone 5 is shipped from China. Why mine is shipped from Texas?? Will it be possible that they make a mistake to ship me an iphone 4S??? Or it would be refurbished??
Anyone happened to this situation?
Mine shipped from Ft. Worth, TX - arrived in 1 day after shipment in mint condition. Don't worry about it.

Thank you.
Looking at some of the posted delivery schedules, a common theme seems to be shipping only on weekdays. Has anyone's iphone 5 left china (or at least the factory), on the weekend?
Mine shipped on Thursday 10/25/12. It has been sitting at an "arrival scan" for over 36 hours. I am getting a little paranoid. Is this normal? Delivery date is for 10/29/12 via UPS.
Ordered through apple you get the 1 week shipping from china, ordered through Att you get 2 day from Texas but it still came from China
So I have to say that I'm seeing plenty of people that have their iPhone's sitting in Kentucky since the 26th at 1:16 AM. I have no idea what may be going on, but my package has not been scanned since its arrival, and it is worrying at best. It is supposed to be delivered on Tuesday the 30th.

Sadly, it is the weekend and my phone is still sitting at UPS' Worldport in Kentucky. ::sigh:: I don't know why there hasn't been any movement...

Although I'm in Australia I'd imagine you'll definitely get it sooner. Mine wasn't due to deliver til November 2-8, but it shipped last night and is now due to deliver on Friday 26th. It's in transit in Hong Kong right now, meaning it will be in Sydney tomorrow and Melbourne on Friday. No idea how it works going to the US but Because you are a day behind us time zone wise, I think it's a dead certainty you'll have it before the weekend

I can't remember if it is in this thread or somewhere else but I think someone else who has a phone sitting in Ky with the same time stamp scan called UPS. A representative told him/her that there was a delay with customs.
I must be lucky. Ordered on 10/24 the 16gb white iPhone and just got the email with my tracking number. Shipping by ups next day air so I should hopefully have it by Monday or Tuesday. I ordered online from sprint. Lte is active in my area so I'm excited.

Yes, it was this thread! That the packages are taking long due to customs makes me slightly worried /: Hopefully tomorrow there is an update with the status of the packages, because now I'm just getting anxious.
My status changed on my order with Verizon from "Your order has been received and is being processed" to "Your order has been sent for processing" and my card has been charged. Happened around 7 or so tonight.

Sprint has sold the fewest number of the iPhone 5's because of their limited 4G coverage. But if you have it in your area your golden... Also, Softbank is trying to buy Sprint. If that happens Sprint could become one of the largest carriers in the US overnight. Softbank has the money to expand Sprints network thru out the US very quickly...

Mine just turned to this on the UPS tracking:
"A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated."
After following for the last week all the info just disappeared..
But I had tracking notifications.. here is where it was before that changed:

Supposed to be delivered Monday to Oregon. What happened, maybe somebody stole a UPS truck full of iPhones..
Guy above me beat me to it. Maybe UPS took the iPhone shipment's tracking offline because all us Apple fans were killing their servers refreshing every hour lol.

HA! I thought the exact same thing! lol!

back on track yayyyy
I'm in the same boat. Mine has been sitting in KY since the 26th at 0100. I am also now getting the yellow banner on my tracking that says a label has been created. I'm just laughing at this point- I figure my phone might show up sometime in the next month. What a cluster!
Mine was supposed to be delivered on Friday the 26th, but online tracking still shows it's in KY. Strangely, the estimated delivery date is still the 26th. Called UPS, and they told me it's due for delivery on Monday, but I'm starting to get worried. I wonder what's up with the online tracking system...
