Carrier iPhone 7/7+ Sprint Pre-Order Thread

What's your hypothesis?
Click to expand...
Well 1st on 9/9 I placed two separate orders my first order was the 7+ JB and MB both 256GB, my second and last order was for the 7+ G also 256GB. After we all got our shipping delay emails it was clear my second order would come first based on demand. As for my first order I hypothesized since the MB should be delivered between 9/23 and 9/30 and since i ordered said MB with the JB, one of two things are going to happen. Sprint is going to just send my JB with my MB because i pre oreded for one and Both iPhones was one order. Or they will just wait to send me my MB when my JB is ready, which i pray to steve jobs they do not do lol. P.S seeing my 7+ G get some shipping movement made me believe myself more lmfaoo

Ordered @ 12:07 am PST on 9/9

I see. Couldn't they also just send your MB and then send the JB later on?

Please let us know what ends up happening

I ordered the same model at 1:25am PST.

I heard people received an e-mail today, I did not.

Any chance someone could post the text of that email?

Thanks.
 
Received my tracking this morning as I previously stated. Two 7+ MB 128gb. Just wanted to let you all know (if it hasn't been mentioned previously), that they're back to shopping via Next Day Air instead of Ground like the past few days indicated.

Hope you all receive your tracking soon. GL <3
 
Just got off a heated chat with sprint, that was no help but yet I was able to get a lot of the frustration from this hell of a pre order out lol. I also went ahead and let them know that they shouldn't have placed estimated shipping dates of 9/9 on confirmation emails because that could start lawsuits. That didn't help either but then they realized their **** up and tried to save themselves but too late lol I ripped them but still no tracking info on my MB 7+

This is the email I got today after inquiring about my order:

I understand this is not the news you were hoping for. Some people who placed their order on 9/9/16 are getting the phone now and some will receive them 9/30/16. Your order was placed on 9/10/16 which will be coming out of the second batch we receive.

What the hell is the second batch??

Can we go ahead and pre order for the 7s plus for next year? Lol

That's funny. On a related note, I wonder if they'll just skip straight to 8, since there's supposed to be a big redesign next year?

Or maybe even skip to 10, since it's the 10th anniversary?

AHA!!! See?! I had theorized a few days ago that Apple will rename the product to Apple Phone for the 10th anniversary. They can't call it the 8... that would totally throw off their naming line. If they skip to 10, they'll look like they're copying Microsoft and it will look like they don't know what they're doing.

At the very least, they'll just call it "iPhone"... remember when they did that with the iPad? And look at Apple Music, Apple Watch, Messages... there are more, I just can't remember them. They are moving away from "i", and I, for one, would be pumped to see it become Apple Phone.

I think they are all waiting until all phones on the order are ready to ship if you have multiple under the same order number. I saw numerous 7+ MB 128g ship yesterday that ordered after me. I did not see any of the Gold 7+ 128g ship yesterday though. I received my shipping email today around 2pm est. for both phones and Rtn kit

My order went through @ 4:29am est order # oy-mhso-803452XXX
