Likely tomorrow. I was at the Apple store earlier today to pick up something else and they are selling the Watch S6 tomorrow.
To the OP, check with the local stores around you, to see which will be open. Most times, you have to make an appointment and the times available are often limited. You might get lucky for tomorrow.
Isn't curbside mostly for online order pick ups (express lane)? I know Apple store near me is open but only via appointments for both sales and/or genius. Otherwise for express pick up it's just outside only.
if i make genius appointment or some type of appointment and get my self in the door, i can get the watch right? 😆😁
I'm gonna guess that nobody here actually knows.
Watch releases during pandemics don't happen too often.
High fives for the smashed watch face! Did the same to my series 2 three weeks ago. How you have gotten by 3 months is amazing! I did get an extra week post-smashing on the garage floor by applying packing tape over the display. The touch didn't work, but "hey siri", notifications and step tracking/HR for my run apps was working (iSmoothRun app didn't care). Sadly my sweat kept unsticking the packing tape and on the last replacement of the tape my sweat penetrated and got inside.. now it displays thick light sabers generously on the left with three bubbles horizontally that I can't see what it says cause said "light sabers" are in the way. without touch sensitivity I can't tap them away. Holding the side button with crown won't reset it. I guess I can take it off the charger and run out of battery and go to sleep possibly forever.
Can't wait for my series 6 tomorrow! Anyone know if signature is required? You know the Fedex man will come when I go out for my daily run at noon.
Personal shopping for my area is available for all of today and then unavailable until next week (for all 4 stores around me) so making an appointment won’t work. I guess the only thing is ordering for in store pickup at some time. If I had to guess, after midnight is when it would activate. But who knows.
the 250 to repair the screen is what stopped me ha haa... this is why i need my watch in my hands tomorrow. at&t said 8am so lets see if i can do store pick up tomorrow
You could make an appointment to see a sales specialist. At least the Apple store near me has that option available for those who wish to try the watch or play with the display model for ipads/iphone etc.
i cant find that option, just made an appointment for at&t at 10am tomorrow, gonna try and buy the watch at 8am on their website for store pickup
Usually at the bottom of the Apple Store App is where I could find the reservation.
Stores aren’t open in some places - In ATL area, zero availability for any shopping sessions, and store “special hours” says temporarily closed for every day thru 24th, last day listed.
Yes only stores that are open would have that option. Whereas stores that are closed wont'.
yeah cincinnati isnt closed. im hoping at 3am store pickup is open, i will try that if not i will try at&t at8am
For the store near me all of the slots are greyed out through Monday. I wonder if they are just not making appointments and will let in people based on arrival time.
I was wondering if you'll be able to do in store pickup for online orders starting tomorrow morning. If so, does anyone recommend what time to start checking for availability?
In my part of the world, in store pickups are now available. Typically in-store inventory gets refreshed at 6am local time.
Interesting. Thank you for letting me/us know. Hopefully this is a precursor for what will happen in the US tomorrow
Depends. the Apple store in my area will do walk in appointment to get in. They won’t let you inside without an appointment. Some times when I do I store pick up and select a time for say the next day I get an email that it’s ready for pick up and Im still able to pick up items way earlier then the time I choose
Yeah, I’m probably not just going to show up there, not worth it. Just hoping they add some options for online orders with in store pickup tomorrow.
