Ordered through AA&T(USA) 16g SG Mini late Thursday 11/14 and it arrived this last Tuesday 11/19. Now off looking for a nice case.
 
Picked up a Grey 16Gb cellular at Braehead in Glasgow today. Not a bad example. Screen warm and perhaps a mildly warmer tinge at the bottom near the home button. But I think that's about as good as it gets at the moment. Probably a keeper.
 
32gb retina mini LTE with engraving is on its way :)

Got a price match on 16GB rMini at JL, they matched Tesco's £30 off code so it's £289 inc JL's 3 year warranty. Both have stock at the time of writing.
 
I _think_ but i'm not sure, that my 64GB Cellular picked up at Kingston Apple store yesterday has a small amount of yellowing right at the bottom of the screen.

I'm not sure it bothers me, I probably wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't come to these forums in the first place.

keeping it for a week and see how I feel about it.

I have the same problem. Once you notice the tint, it bothers you more each day. Or it could be that I'm OCD :)

My 64GB Cellular SG rMini is still in Germany - suspect they both got that far on the same UPS003 flight from Hong Kong via Dubai - or did yours have a different routing. Still says Monday delivery though. Here's my tracking:

I had two and they've both been the same. I suspect it's the way the backlighting is designed that's causing this. Always warmer towards the home button and cooler towards the top in portrait.

Went to check my order status via the app, and "We're sorry, but our order status services are extremely busy right now. Please try again later." Tried 5 minutes later and "Something went wrong with your request. Please try again later." Because that's reassuring! I want my mini before my birthday, on the 2nd, the upper end of my delivery estimate is the 3rd but it's not looking good…
 
Finally moved this evening to "preparing for despatch", but delivery estimate remains 25th Nov to 2nd Dec so will be interesting to see when it appears.

Space Grey, 128GB, Wifi & 4G.
 
My order is in the same state, ordered 9am on the 12th, 'still processing', 5 working days to shipment past last week, 10 days are up on Tuesday. There seems to an issue shipping the larger size cellular models any earlier!

:eek:

I think the issue is that they are still in pieces on some factory floor ha.
 
Mine was still processing when the website eventually went back up, luckily the Trafford Centre had one available so I picked that up and cancelled my order. So now my new Mini is hidden somewhere in my house for another week. So close, yet so far! :D
