iPhone 6s and 6s Plus Orders Now Shipping Ahead of September 25 Launch

[MacRumors]

Just days after iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus pre-orders began shifting to "Preparing for Shipment" status on the Apple Online Store, several customers in the United States and abroad have received notice that the smartphones are now shipping from China for estimated delivery on September 25.

iPhone 6s Plus from Apple scheduled for September 25 delivery via UPS​

iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus pre-orders have been shipped by both Apple and carriers such as Verizon and T-Mobile. Most devices are scheduled for overnight shipping next Thursday, meaning that customers should begin receiving their new iPhones on Friday morning, the same day the smartphones launch in twelve countries.

Apple requires that couriers such as UPS and FedEx in the United States hold iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus deliveries until September 25, but in years past some lucky customers have received their device slightly earlier. Meanwhile, New York City and Philadelphia residents could face delays due to Pope Francis visiting next week.

iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus pre-orders began on September 12 at 12:01 AM Pacific in the United States, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Singapore and the United Kingdom. Most iPhone 6s Plus and Rose Gold models are now estimated to ship in 3-4 weeks or later.

There still remains the option of standing in line at an Apple Store for a chance to purchase a specific iPhone model on launch day, but expect long lines at most locations. The new iPhones go on sale September 25 at 8:00 AM local time on a first come, first served basis for customers without reservations.

waiting for my iPhone 7 to ship

 

[theapplehub]

Great! My order status from the Apple Online Store has changed to 'Preparing for Shipment' for my iPhone 6s Plus!

 

[JFazYankees]

And here I am, still processing...

 

[D.T.]

I thought that was always the case[?]

I have shipping confirmation, tracking number, serial and IMEI numbers, and the phones are due at my house on September 25th, but after I placed my order last [early] Friday morning with Verizon, my confirmation email (received at 3:03a EST) indicated 'Deliver By 09/25/2015'.

 

[samlikesmac]

Does anyone think AT&T pre-orders will ship before October 16th? Mine says it's "preparing for shipment" but October 16th is such a long wait.

 

[ChinaRye]

Woohoo! Mine has already shipped and is hanging out in Zhengzhou as we speak.

 

[tpabrad]

Both of my phones on Apple site still show preparing for shipment but UPS MyChoice has a delivery registered in my name already shipping from China for delivery on Friday.

 

[ALopesNZ]

I ordered my iPhone 6s+ [Space Grey] 10min after launch. Today i checked and it is showing.
Preparing for Shipment: We are preparing your item(s) to ship. While your order is being prepared, we are unable to modify your order details. Once your item ships, we will email you a Shipment Notification with complete order details.
So Those of you that have a tracking number assigned. Good on you. I'll have to wait a little bit longer for my consignment.

I think the Pope will have a thing or two to say about this.

Is there a way to track with Reference and if so what info is necessary?

[Alexrat1996]

Processing still called apple my order is fine

 

[tpabrad]

Is there a way to track with Reference and if so what info is necessary?

I just looked at my shipment info on ups and a number of reference numbers are listed; ranging from my home phone number (billing card?) and the Apple order number. So you may be able to track the shipment down if its out there.

 

[unplugme71]

Why would the Pope delay orders? It's not anti-Catholic to own an iPhone.

Was the author drunk writing this?

 

[ngaham]

My order status from Apple still shows "Preparing for Shipment". However, when I log into my UPS My Choice account it shows a delivery on 9/25 from Apple and provides the shipping number. If you have a UPS My Choice account, I suggest you hop on there and check for a scheduled delivery.

UPS and Fedex have listed certain ZIP codes are not getting shipments likely because they are on the route the Pope is taking.

[Bako-MacAddict]

[cariacou]

Has anyone on any carrier seen a shipping label being printed for a Rose Gold iPhone (doesn't matter model or size)?

 

[Jason83]

Because it's going to be a total sh*t show trying to get around in some of those areas while he's in town, and that includes UPS drivers.
