I casually walked (ran) to my Local Apple Store at lunch today (Hong Kong Plaza in Shanghai) and they told me they only have 16GB models today and to come back tomorrow for the 64GB.

I wouldn't be so eager, but my pre-order is set to deliver in 7-10 painfully long days...
Bummer ... A lot of people out there in lines?
 
Well my shipping status has finally updated after 3 days of being in the same process. It is shipping from KY right now, sure due for arrival at Salt Lake City around 8:30 this morning, then off to the Ogden hub by 9:30 AM, and then out for delivery by 12:00 Pm. Let's see if I'm right.

The iPad Pro orders seem to have not had a constricting delivery date whereas the iPhone SE has.
 
Does the iPhone SE with the official apple leather case fit on their official dock?? I assumed not but the picture posted on the last page says differently...

It will fit. The Lightning connector on the dock sticks out a bit, so it fits most cases (even pretty thick ones).

Easily. It will even fit the iPad through the silicon case, which is a lot thicker.

For whatever reason it looks like mine won't make it til tomorrow. I got the tracking info back on Monday but it didn't start moving until late last night. Weird.

Actually no-one! It was lunchtime though. Plenty of activity around the iPhone table and much less around the new iPad Pro table.

I was delighted to see you could actually walk in and buy the SE - even if they didn't have 64GB stock yet. I believe normally for launches in China they do an email lottery. Every day you submit your email and if you're selected, you can pop in the next day to pick it up.

That is normal for overnight delivery. What does the tracking actually say?

Yup.

UPS is generally shipped via "Next Day Air-Saver" and FedEx is shipped via "Standard Overnight."

Assuming they're shipping from close to a hub, there's typically not much movement prior to the day before. "Typical," not "weird."

That's good to know then. Regardless as long as it's here by the weekend I'm fine with that. More so since the Pro showed up a day early!

Seeing as my SE is predicted to arrive April 4-5, I was gonna head to my local Apple Store this morning to see what they have in stock and possibly cancel my preorder. What do you know, I check my preorder page and it's "Preparing for Shipment" so I can't cancel it anymore. Guess I'm going to have to wait 2-3 more business days for my iPhone SE to come.

Next time I preorder an Apple product I have to reminder myself to do it at exactly 3am EST and not 6am like this time. ;)
 
Just got mine, dissapointed that the screen still has a tint around the edges and especially the top part of the screen is tinted.
Otherwise its nice.

I got the space grey one.

Also there is something rattling in the phone when i shake it.

IIRC that has to do with the camera and is totally normal.
 
Mine should be here by 4. Gotta put the hubby on watching for the FedEx guy!

Yup. Rattling has been normal for several years now--just more obvious in some phones. Nothing wrong. https://forums.macrumors.com/search/1754646/?q=rattling

Enjoy your new phone.
