iPhone 7 PLUS Jet Black November Apple.com thread

[hellopupy]

The excitement wore off the day it was released and mine didn't show up. So much for pre ordering. Now it's just like meh it shows when it shows.

Excitement for me really died too, now I just only want a new phone because there isn't enough space in my current phone. I'm curious to know why Apple can't just move up their orders with Foxconn 1-1.5 months earlier to prepare for the pre-orders, they already forecasted X amount of phones and ordered them with Foxconn anyways. The only reason I see to delay is to wait for iOS beta to complete testing but...ugh...

 

[sevimli]

you picked up a JB plus in store ?

Yes, yesterday...

 

[hellopupy]

Yes, yesterday...

I think we have already all came to the conclusion that iUP prioritizes, it is nothing surprising.

 

[coolsean20]

Yes, yesterday...

Did it show up for reservation on the website? Or did you just walk in asking for one?

 

[QuietFun]

Yes, yesterday...

So was that the first time enrolling in IUP or are you in it too? If you just enrolled your wife, then did you do it online and request a jb7+ or do it in store? Also, how does one "request" a JB 7+?

Thank you. I am currently deciding between the 7jb which is in stock, and the plus.

I called my local Target yesterday and they had only silver 7+'s so I put myself on a waiting list for the JB 256gb on the idea that since it's less 'popular' I might score one before 11/11.

When they say ships 5 week, is From order date? I got 11/11 delivery on JB 128gb

I was just thinking about that today myself. It said 'ships 5 weeks' a week ago and still says that today. We'll know the exact ship date when our cc's get charged and they move to PFS. Before that it will just be speculation.

I'm hardly even interested. My Galaxy 5 works fine and I'm even dreading the change over. I have wanted to just cancel but the wife tells me to just wait and it will be worth it. She even ordered me an AW....which of course is back ordered also lol

i've been checking istocknow since the 1st week and havent seen a JB + show up yet.....

I think I saw one in Quebec a few days ago. Maybe this is a sign that Apple knows they can't start shipping them to stores when we've all been waiting a month. More likely there are none to ship. Every one is accounted for and the ones popping up in Best Buys/Targets were pre-ordered but then not picked up.

Haven't seen a JB+ pop up in my state (MN) yet, have also been checking since istocknow first went live. I usually check right when the stock refreshes since I'm up anyways, but it could be possible that people beat me to it every time.

Hopefully it improves for all soon.

Just letting you guys know, I was able to place an order on bestbuy and received a delivery date of next Tuesday (paid for 1day shipping). You should try to check on bestbuy too

Just checked the website and find this very odd...

[doublepost=1475882010][/doublepost]I should have realized that a company that's known for website shadiness would be making an offer that's too good to be true...for when I dig deeper...

Yeah I have a feeling we'll see our phones before 11/11. Not much before, but early. I don't trust BB at all. They are known for misinformation on their website. However, another fellow traveler on another thread has a shipping number for a next week delivery from a recent BB order.

Bit the same here. I tried grabbing one on hold in store but the volume we are getting here in Australia is ridiculous, with stocks gone in <30 seconds. 4 weeks and counting here, with another 4 to go before estimated delivery

if I was not handing the phone down to my son I think I'd cancel the order and forget about getting one entirely.

They do at between 8am and 802am local time, and usually last less than a minute before being all gone

Hope this is the start of us all rolling forward with some updates. I'm ordered much later in the morning, though.

That's awesome! I received my email confirmation at 2:37 AM CDT so 7 minutes after you. I'm hoping I see "Preparing for Shipment" in a few days.
