She lied... the whole line was released at the same time. We've been told as RSM's and RSC's that they're just heavy in demand and backordered and we'll be getting them the second they're available.

Correct!!!!! On Apple thread I saw couple of people saying that Apple started shipping black iphone 7/7+.

I wish I was in Chicago or somewhere cool where this was an option. My nearest Apple store is almost 2 hours away and the ATT resellers here are a joke. I've always wanted to nerd out and camp for a tech release.

Anyway, sounds like I'm in the same boat as a lot of you. Got it at 3:24AM for the 7+ 128 Matte Black. Shipping window of 9/23-9/30. Nothing yet.
I'm camping in lake Zurich the dear park Apple Store I always do and always leave happy.u may get shot at the Chicago one

Oh I think I remember the keynote address them talking about the jet black not officially being available before October. But then again - I thought that was the portrait mode feature of Photos.app in iOS 10.

Hmm. But I do remember some discussion of one of the phones not having something until October. I didn't think it was an entire color of a phone though. Can we get any positive confirmation of this? A single AT&T rep on the telephone means nothing to me as they are often full of sh^t.
As a rep I was told something completely different from this. I would not believe this to be true.... the only thing I can recollect from the keynote about an October release is the bokeh effect and the air pods .
 
LOL. That's what Phil Schiller called the "Black" (matte) when it was introduced at the media event. "Jet Black", plus "Just Black", and the rest of the colors....

... not that dumb dude, if you read my signature.. i was referring to your " for iPhone 7 : 128GB (just) black has shipped. "

Well I'm glad that other report then is likely wrong - that no jet blacks were manufactured at all until October. That makes no sense of any kind. Thanks for the reassurance.

""@Ddangoside : Hey guys. Just received an email saying my phone has just shipped. Order details:

iPhone 7 Plus 128GB MATTE BLACK
Ordered 9/9 @ 11:53 PST (finished ordering 7 minutes before launch)
ETA: 9/22-9/29

""

pics lad?
 
I want to pee behind buildings, drink, and eat pizza! If I camped out in my town waiting on my iPhone people would think I was just one of the homeless people that sleeps on the steps of our ATT store...

Guess I'm damned to wait on that shipping notification.
Lol
 
Was this by your request or something? My original range of October 14, 2016 - October 21, 2016 remains, seems odd to have people leapfrogging...

Hi,
I didn't call or anything. I just got an email saying, "Your order will be shipped earlier than promised" as the subject and the first words in the body of the email was "Great News"

Thinking about it now our system we use in store wouldn't even allow us to place a preorder out that far so I am absolutely positive that that is false. I have done a few jet black preorders in the past week.

Hmmmm never heard of this before normally they just ship not email u
 
Is there anyyyyyyy way to check fedex? How do u know who it's shipped with.

they dont have any references to them. i have two 7 plus rose gold 128 coming and i have inputted about 20 combinations of orders (with - and without) and still nothing. looking like its only apple.com

and also the phone numbers
 
Please walk me through how to do this...pleaseeee
You track by reference on UPS and for the reference you just put "1", but you put the correct destination country and zip code. Of course, AT&T is apparently using FedEx so there could be an explanation if your order doesn't show up.

You're correct but that was the depth of field option in the camera which they said would come out later in an update in October I think.

when I do that on UPS, it says >>>The character set entered is not supported.
