Trying to figure out the fastest way to preorder the iPhone X for U.S. Cellular. I would like to go through the Apple website if possible, but I don’t know which carrier would support U.S. Cellular (in recent years there’s been a lot of confusion between Apple employees and U.S. Cellular employees on which carrier phones are compatible with the network). Anyone know which phone I need to order? Verizon, T-mobile, AT&T, or Sprint?

If not, I would assume the U.S. Cellular website would be the best place to preorder. Just thought I’d check.
 
I am not sure that you will be able to pre-order on the U.S. Cellular site any time soon. However, on their web site, they confirm that they use CDMA devices so if you order an iPhone X from Apple you would need to chose between Verizon or Sprint models. The SIM-Free model is not listed for pre-ordering, it would be a Verizon / Sprint CDMA capable device.

Now there is a problem with pre-ordering from Apple. You need an existing account with one of the 4 Carriers or you need to create a new account to pre-order Verizon or Sprint models.
