iPhone X Now Available for Pre-Order

Ordering from Canada here, even though I had to type in a gift card pin I got Nov 3rd shipping when I got in at around 3-4 minutes after. :) Happy.
 
Good old apple.com App still not loading and still in line at AT&T. However got in easy at apple.com! Preordered 256gb Silver and 256gb Black for launch day pickup!
 
Ended up paying the extra cost at Best Buy, because it was the only one that didn't bug me about carrier questions.
 
Lol they gave me a reservation number because they couldn't connect to Verizon and they'll contact me in the next 24 hours ... looks like I'm going to be cancelling. What a bunch of crap.
 
managed to reserve a 256gb space gray for pickup next friday morning.

still working on getting my gf's to go through.
 
screw this.... the german store (website and app) went online not before 9:07am which was 6 minutes late.

Delivery Nov 28th.

And no, I had 3 redundant Internet connections above 100Mbit/s. The Service was down way longer than for my brother in the UK who could order it right away.

I hate geofencing on the web and Apple for this **** (can't order from different country). I'm not saying it's rational to drool over a phone like I do (still on the iphone 6) but this build-up, announcement for 0:01am and then messing things up or excluding certain countries or putting them at a disadvantage sucks!

I'm pissed beyond believe! Yes, it's irrational but screw you, marketing people or whoever decides this. I want global equality!!
 
Thanks a lot Tim! I was all over it from the get go and didn’t get any response from the Apple Store app until 3:11am EDT. Stayed up all night for this. Where’s your new exploding face emoji? I need one right now!!
 
Winner safari on WiFi.... launch day delivery. App is still down and estimates are 2-3 weeks.

256gb silver.
 
Does anyone know where you can purchase the charger hey have been advertising that can charge phone, watch, and headphone all at once? I can not find it on the website at all.
 
Got in 5 seconds after pre-orders opened, ordered, thankfully I made it and delivers next Friday :)
 
Verizon was on point... Site was lit up by 23:56 PST... Order was in by Midnight. 256GB Space Gray... I was going to go 64GB, but i said you only live once at the last minute...
 
So my zip is off by one on the 2nd to last digit, will I be able to fix before shipment?
 
ugg shipping already slipped to 17-24th and no in store pick up in my whole state, at least i got it ordered, lets see if my 6 lasts another month
 
Woooo launch day X black 265GB ordered
Got a second one also but that’s 2-3 weeks delivery.
Dam that slipped quick.
 
I have NEVER had such a terrible experience ordering in my life. I got in IMMEDIATELY, and then I had to verify I had Verizon with a pin. (I have NEVER had to do this, but I’m also not stupid, I had that PIN with me) so I verified wth my PIN. Verizon declines it 3 times in a row before it FINALLY goes through. THEN it thinks I want to buy 2 iPhone Xs (of course, why not...no)

I then finally order. Says I’ll get it Nov. 3rd. I paid full price. Can’t imagine people that do payment plans and how long they are going through the process.

I guess we’ll see if my shipment time slips and next thing I won’t get it until December.
 
AT&T 64GB Silver, ships 11/3 :) ordered at 3:07am because of an issue with billing address...didn't realize it needed to match the account holders...Stressful few minutes but pulled it off! Now time for bed that this madness is finally over lol...Cheers to another great iPhone Pre-order night!
 
Slipped to 2-3 weeks. Never got in through the app, so had to do it through the web, which took more time. Oh well, now I have more time to back up my old 6...

-HM
 
I still can't get in through the app but online... woohoo!

Got one. I think it was black and 256GB. I have no idea when it ships. Hubby has one shipping. Nov 3. But they inexplicably are shipping it to his office not our house. Mine ships Nov 17-24. I don’t care. If I was doing this for me I’d have gotten the white one. Once we make sure one of the orders at least is okay we will cancel the other. Happy Birthday to my Boo. Now I am going over to sit back and watch you all until I fall asleep.
 
Verizon actually let me order before 2 AM (in central time here). It let me order around 1:55, was done by 1:58. Says it'll deliver 11/3!

Thing is, Verizon's site still says "Delivers 11/3". Either Verizon has an abundance (or everyone's using the Apple option so nobody's going to the carrier itself), or they are just sticking 11/3 there for everyone and I'll end up finding out it's delayed. (Now I wonder if somehow Verizon got to start at 12AM central time........)

The Email says "Your order includes one or more items on preorder or backorder. Your items will ship when available, provided that your account balance is current."

Here's hoping 11/3 is actually a thing.
 
So it took 15 minutes of refreshing, ended up with reservations for two, shipping time 2-3 weeks. The carriers are overloaded - I will get an email and have to respond within 24 hours
 
Got a "We can't reach the carrier to confirm account but we have reserved an iPhone for you" message with a 2 weeks to ship message. Got that at 12:14 AM PST. Of course, no email to confirm anything. Why would they need to confirm a carrier if I am paying in full for an unlocked phone anyway? But whatever. This was for US AT&T.
 
I must have been lucky. All ordered and email confirmed by 8:03 for next Friday pick up!

Neither the site nor the app worked for me until 12:05, by which time my ship date had slipped to November 10-17 and no in-store pickup available.

Same here and I was using Safari and the iPad Apple Store app to load...
By the time I got in, it was already 03:06 and slipped to November 17 with no pick up option.
Additionally, the Apple Upgrade Program is stuck with CitizenOne now where it says they need 8 hours to confirm whether I am eligible or not for the loan and I shall NOT place another other until that email...
 
well it first showed up on the apple store app, 6-7 min after 1am (my time) placed the order and it says Nov 21-28. even 10 min later it has the same estimated date of delivery so I hope that apples just playing it safe and are exaggerating the delivery dates (they do do that so they can be safe) but if not I guess a whole other month to go lol, at least its not 2018
 
Wow.. much easier than years in the past! Took until about 2:10 to finally load, but have mine ordered. Went for what is rumored as the most popular (black, 256). Already shipping is 2-3 weeks rather than next week. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be though. Woe to the co-workers who insist on "ordering next week" ... anxious to hear how you like your phones when they arrive in March 2018. ;)

Lol same here. 100% planned on 64gb but last minute questioned myself and just did 256.
 
Got mine for Nov 3rd. Site was down till @ 12:05. Luckily was also checking in with the app. The Apple Store App came up 2 minutes before the website did. Ordered through the app store and will get next week.
 
Yay 3rd of Nov 256g silver (UK)...partner did it at the same time and it was 2-3weeks...someone is not very happy!
