T-Mobile: iPhone 6S/6S Plus Pre-Order Thread:

passingapple said:
So no one's got T-mobile iphone 6s from Apple yet? Too soon?

I guess since nobody came here and boasted about it, folks who received early (like 2 or 3?) and all those tech reviewers didn't get T-mobile one.

Somebody confirm, for once for all, if your model is A1633 or A1688!

95% chance of it being A1688 (the current consensus), but I haven't given up on this turning out to be A1633 by some miracle yet. Nothing is definite until somebody gets one from Apple and confirm one way or another.

What's the difference? A single band? Is there a reason to really want that over any other for domestic use?

It honestly sounds like the EARLY reports were TRUE! Apple called for (and the factories pumped it out) a BUNCH of iPhones for the initial launch. I remember reading that's the MOST they have ever called on to make for first day launch. It honestly sounds like APPLE, then T-MO got the MOST initial stock

I'm sure you're right, but considering they have destroyed records every year, in sure a similar story can be said of every year. I think there is more to this than just ordering more. For launch devices they're almost always limited by time. I wouldn't doubt these have been in production for many months now, and possibly started much sooner than has been standard n

That moment when it's the 24th (EST) and you where promised to not lose your place in line and get an email saying, "Oct. 3rd - Oct. 17th is the shipping date. I'm super beyond disappointed with T-Mobile.... They F**ked up my order 6 times because they have idiots working call centers and they can't process orders right, ether they never finished it, or it was never done correctly. At this point I lost all hope in getting it tomorrow, but I know it'll come eventually.

Right, like most, if not all, articles written around a couple week ago, it's based on one source, Apple's LTE spec page. That's why I wrote it being A1688 as the current consensus.

But if we've learned anything, Apple's webpages are not 100% accurate and sometimes are misleading and incorrect. So that's why I keep a slim hope that T-mobile shipped from Apple being A1633. Nothing is 100% definite until early receivers confirm here one way or another.

My IMEI info from this site…

http://www.imei.info

…says I'm getting a iPhone 6S Plus A1633. Then again, there is no such model (1633 is the 6s) and it also says it's "65 GB" when I ordered 128, so I have no idea.

Has anyone with a 6s Plus RG 128GB status updated? My issue is that I pre-ordered on the 12th, I called around 3:02 EST and got my order done within 30 mins or so: well, the representative told me that the order went through, that it was all done and then boom... I called the next day because I never got an email or EIP, and they told me the order never processed.... So I call back and re do the order to basically struggle with them 6 times... 6 times just to get the damn order placed, it finally placed on the 19th, but they reassured me that I wouldn't lose my place in line, because they changed the rules this year where if the orders don't process your place in line is still safe... so here I am with no updates, site hasn't changed and money hasn't been taken out... This was the worse one yet...

Wow I was teed off about ordering on the 15th and having to hear I will have to wait until to November Never preordered and iPhone just Samsung devices
 
I'm guessing we will see the packages ship tomorrow around 3pm pacific but thats just my guess based on 0 scientifical evidence.
 
So i ordered my 6s plus rose gold on the 12th around 12:30am. I got a tracking number and got charged and all and was expected to deliver today but of course that did not happen. But when I just checked on the status again, now it says scheduled delivery date is Unavailable. Is anyone having this same issue??

The planes that everyone keeps posting up, those are the planes that are going to the T-Mobile warehouse? That's where T-Mobile sends them to UPS?

well if you plan to sell your 6s next year and change to 7, then no. LTE 30 is still being deployed and even if you live near a city like I am (NYC), by the time it is widely available, 7 will be released. Also I highly doubt that you can get even $15 more when selling for that single band. most likely no difference in resale value.

But if you plan to keep the 6s for 2-4 years and possibly use AT&T go-phone at one point or another, then yeah. They are the same price, so if one can help it, it's better to get that one. ...having said that, if AT&T keeps screwing you over like it is doing to me right now with this bogus security issue, it's not worth the trouble, I'd say. I am going to try one more time tomorrow at the AT&T store and that's it.

I am a couple hours from the T-Mobile warehouse. I got the LTE Booster on Tuesday. Wednesday at 5:35PM label was created. And now Thursday @ 1:01AM it updated with "origin scan". I have overnight shipping.

So I'm assuming tomorrow(Friday around @1:01AM) it'll be updated with the origin scan for the iPhone. And within the hours before its "out for delivery", it'll be transit to my city. Overnight shipping on this too.

When I use my IMEI on that site, it says mine is model A1687. I ordered the 6s gold 64gb. I'm hoping I learn what it actually is when it arrives Friday!

oh darn it... wait a minute, A1687 is 6s plus! So this IMEI checking stuff is really not reliable, huh?
 
its the 24th in the east obviously still saying nothing i got 30 mins till midnight hear unless its gonna be sometimes today?
 
With T-Mobile's 2-year hardware plan, do you pay only the tax upfront or...?

They claim it's 0 down. This will be my first phone with them so I'm not sure how it works.

All these planes are going to the UPS HUB in Louisville, KY.

Also if im correct theres an Tmobile Warehouse over there as well, Could be wrong.

If you do regular eip, all tax is due up front. If you do the Jump on demand, only the tax or your down payment is due upfront. (16gb no tax, 64gb 99$+(state tax*99), 128gb 199$+(state tax*199))
 
so both my phones orders from today shipped according to the status on my tmobile.. but still no text or email with the tracking..
