Didn’t see a thread for T Mobile so let’s start one

I’m going to the 17 pro Cosmic Orange from the 16 PM t
 
Going from a 16PM to a 17PM Cosmic Orange with my yearly upgrade. I will be up bright and early and filled with anxiety Friday morning 😂

T-Mobile's pre-orders opened early. At 6:45AM CST it was already open and took my order for the orange Pro Max with no issues. Only took a minute.
 
I was not planning on getting the iPhone 17 Pro Max but because I have Go5G Next plan, I get yearly upgrades and T-Mobile pays off my iPhone 16 Pro Max balance ($377) and still full promotion of $1100 with trade-in for only $4.16 a month for the 17 Pro Max so I ordered with T-Mobile. iPhone 17 Pro Max Orange. I was paying $8.13 for the 16 Pro Max so new iPhone I will be saving $4 a month LOL

I wasn't planning to either but I too have their yearly jump so really no reason not to!
 
I got in right at 7:59 and was done within a couple minutes! Incredibly smooth process. Orange 17PM set for delivery day!

Does T-Mobile delivers on release day (Sep 19th)? I always upgrade with Apple/T-Mobile but this year went directly with T-Mobile and my order says Ship on Sep 19th.

Yes you will get it on 9/19, I'm not sure why they word it that way, but that's how they've worded it for years, "ship on" the release date, but when it says that, I've always gotten on that date.

Yes they just have it worded that way, I’ve done yearly upgrade with the 15 and 16 and both times it’s said “ships [release day]” and both times I’ve received it on release day. You or someone will need to be there to sign for the package though, so make sure you have that arranged! (un)luckily I’m disabled so I’m home all the time and I just get up early, open the front door, and listen for the big brown truck to pull up lol

Good to know.

I may have to take a personal day then since my wife and I both work.

I would hate to do that, but it would be a fun day if it actually arrived on the 19th!

It’s so much fun honestly! I love to see how many cups of coffee I can get in me before delivery happens haha. I love the 2 weeks leading up to delivery from the announcement, and Delivery Day feels like a holiday for me 😂 this year after my phone arrives I am heading to the chaos of the Apple Store to feel out the TechWoven cases for myself and possibly get a screen protector.

If your order info says “ships 9/19” you’ll definitely get it next Friday! Have fun watching the progress of your package once you have a tracking number :)

I ordered through TMo actually. There are no updates yet. Just when I placed the order it did say the 19th. I was very early to place my order, so hopefully I can count on that. Would hate to take off work and it NOT arrive on the 19th - ha. That would suck.

Thanks - best of luck with your order. I’ll be impatient this week (Monday- Thursday)!
 
I have 4 on order which was done at 1:13 PM EST, had to cancel the 8AM order and reorder because of Go5G Next fiasco currently showing 09/19 delivery 3 iPhone 17 Pro one of each color and 1 Orange Pro Max.

I just got my credit card charged for the $99 taxes. I had an Apple Watch U3 scheduled for pickup at the Apple Store on the 19th at 11:30 am because I was not going to order an iPhone. So I cancelled and placed a new order at Apple for the same AWU 3 but with store pickup the 19th but at 7:30 pm so I don’t miss the iPhone UPS delivery.
