I don't think that's true cause my date for nov 23rd hasn't changed

In the main post they said "MacRumors reader Daniel was told to expect his Jet Black iPhone 7 Plus in November, but will be receiving it tomorrow, while another customer had a delivery scheduled for October 4 to 10, but will instead receive his iPhone on Wednesday"

So why weren't those of us who were already getting earlier shipment dates bumped up first?

What's up with T-Mobile? No TMo orders through Apple or Carrier have shipped? Glad I got the jet black though. Saw it at Best Buy this morning and it is slick looking. But unlike the glass on the Note \ s7, it is not slippery.

I'm kind of bothered by this. I completed my order within minutes of pre-orders opening, got a October 18th to 31st delivery window. Still listed the same.

Same for AT&T here.

I actually got in early -

Order date: 09/09/2016 at 2:54:31 a.m. ET

Made no difference.

Estimated ship dates:
October 13, 2016 - October 20, 2016

This launch completely sucks butt.

When did Macrumors become AppleTrolls? Apple warns of micro-abrasians. Not significant scratching. Not even remotely close to the same thing.

Are you salty due to the lack of Mac attention in recent years and worried that this site will eventually fade into obscurity because its MacRumors, and not iPhoneRumors? Or have you started to see some dollars from parties that are interested in seeing you post exaggerations and inflammatory articles that are disingenuous or completely false?

See if I were trying to short Apple, or in some way intentionally misrepresent reality, I would definitely use "significant scratching" as my way of describing what Apple said.

Wow take a deep breath. I appreciate that the author is being open and unbiased about the phone. I prefer when my Tech Reporters don't go all fan boy.

Originally had Sept 26th, says it will arrive tomorrow, although it just left S. Korea today.
 
This is encouraging for those of us who want to just walk into an Apple Store without waiting in line, and walk out with an unlocked SIM-free iPhone 7.
 
Perhaps some order have been freed up with users cancelling their orders (1. because they were taking to long to fulfill 2. Abrasions got them rethinking?) and order other colors?

Is that what you would call this? This is about as far from honest or unbiased as it gets.

They LITERALLY say that Apple warns of "significant scratching" when they have not. That is lie. Are you trying to tell me that Apple said this, when they did not? Are you somehow suggesting that this lie is not a lie?

Nothing has change on my AT&T Pre order... Still Sept 23 thru Sept 30... :/

AT&T has a habit of not updating their ship times. I have preordered many a phone from them and 90% of the time I get the phone earlier than their ship estimate and a lot of the time I actually end up with the phone before I even get a tracking number. I don't know why the AT&T shipping system is so screwey.

Same Here, I had a sooner ship date on first pass through and my order ERRORS out, so frustrating. This is what I got on second pass through.
 
UK 128GB JB 7 order here, order placed at 8:05 UK time. No update on shipping times yet (still 26.9 a 3.10), however credit card got charged today so I'm hoping I might get it this week!

I'm not sure if you meant none of the jet black T-Mobile phones have shipped because my wife's rose gold 7 plus for T-Mobile arrived on launch day..but the money hasn't even been charged yet for my jet black 7+

Did your store even have them on view? my Apple Store (Marseille, France) just had pink and gold, with two single blacks on this soft padded tea tray type set up with a butler walking about letting peope handle it..

Huh? I just handled at JB 7+ at Best Buy.... looked awesome. When the screen is off you can barely tell the front from the back if it weren't for the camera. By far the best looking iPhone yet. Y'all ever see what your screen looks like after you've fingerf----d it and turn it off? easy. wipe it on your jeans and move on.

Has anyone who ordered through their carrier had their date move up? (crossing fingers)

THe Jet Black plus ? Awesome!

I went for the black. And I'm NOT disappointed. I was at the Apple Store this weekend and I expect marks, scratches, you name it on the surface of the jet black. I wouldn't go for it because I use a case so there was no point.
