Opened the app at 2:01am(central time), still showed the store was down. Kept closing and re-opening the app. At 2:07am I was able to complete my order, got a November 3rd delivery to my home. iPhone X 256GB, Verizon, on the IUP

After I did that, I went back in to the store app and ordered an Apple iPhone X leather case, will be delivered on 11/1, so 2 days before I get the phone. All set!

Called Tmobile at 2:51am. On hold and reached a rep at 3:20am. I was able to order a black 256gb and a silver 64gb both with a 11/2-11/3 date.
 
64gb Silver, 11/3 delivery (via Apple website)

As far as storage goes, my current iPhone is 64gb and I checked it and I'm only using about 25gb now and I have a lot of old junk photos/videos that I need to delete so I think I'll be totally fine with 64gb as I usually try to clean things off my phone I don't need and I don't play games or anything so don't normally need space for those. I also pay for iCloud storage so I have that if I need or want to use it, no need for the bigger iPhone storage for my needs but I know some people will want/need that for sure.

sounds like my hubby.... he only got the 64 cuz he's only used a small portion of his current 128 gb phone. had they offered 128, he may have chosen that over the 64... but he knew he didn't need 256 (unlike his hoarder of a wife!)
 
Used the Apple Store app on iPhone (my only option since I was preapproved on iUP and they don’t let you use any other device to order once you’ve done the preapproval). Store didn’t even go up for me until 3:09, but got 64GB Silver for Nov 3.
 
The Apple Store app came online for me at about 3:03 AM EST with confirmation email at 3:03 AM, it took me about 30 seconds to get my order through thanks to some practice with the iPhone 8 earlier in the day 😛. I have an 11/3 delivery date and as usual, I'll be requesting that my phone is held at my nearest customer center for pickup so I don't have to wait on the driver all day.

Now comes the hardest part: waiting.
 
App Store...no issues after logging in at 2:03am (CT) iPhX Order (edit).jpg
 
Space Gray 64GB using IUP and the Store App. Ordered at 3:14 AM EST. Confirmation email came at 4:35 AM. Scariest hour and 20 minutes of my life.
 
I officially made it. I had been waiting for my reservation email. Came through at 10:43 PST. 256GB SG Verizon.
 
Verizon 256 Space Grey. 11/3 Delivery. Ordered via the Apple Store app on iUP at 8 minutes after preorders opened (existing iUP customer).
 
Used the Apple Store app and was able to get one, I think I checked out in under 10 seconds. Blazing fast, hyped I didn't run into any hiccups.

Got in 5 minutes early on Verizon desktop and ordered 3. Got 11/3 ship date.

My wife got in app store app around 4 after. She got in 3 times and ordered 6 T-mobile version 2 at a time before mine would even load. All 11/10-11/17 delivery

I got in around 6 mins after on my phone and got 4 more T-mobiles with 11/17-11/24 delivery.
 
For the first time in years I made launch delivery it seems... and on what is turning out to be the most difficult iPhone to get ahold of yet.

256GB Space Grey, Verizon
Ordered at 3:05 with Delivery listed as 11/3

I ordered directly from T-mobile and it says delivery to be expected November 3rd. I got the 64 GB Silver and that has the least wait time. Excited.
 
So happy to be in the launch day delivery again. Haven’t had a launch day phone since the 6.

November 3rd delivery
Att Silver 64GB
Apple store app
Confirmation email 2:06am

Ordered through the Apple store app on my iPhone 6Plus, got in around 3:05am and was able to secure a Silver 256gb with 11/3 shipping.
 
Got conformation email from Apple 3 mins after order. Received att email in the morning for NEXT renewal. Then my credit card was charged this morning for the taxes! November 3 shipping date. Silver 256 gig. Ordered at 2:05 am thru Apple store app on my iPhone. Wouldn’t open on WiFi only lte.

That’s weird. Same thing happened to me. App wouldn’t load on WiFi, so I turned it off at about :03 after and it loaded right up on LTE.
