Mine has been updated from 9/25 to 9/19. My order was placed within 5 minutes of going live. So looks like Apple is fixing whatever glitch lead to the 9/25 date.
I had a somewhat similar issue when returning my old phone to Apple for the upgrade program with FedEx. I gave them the shipment, but the tracking stopped updating for about a week at the distribution center right by Apple HQ. After multiple calls with Apple and FedEx (including Apple calling FedEx), they miraculously found my package hiding in the back of a truck trailer. I always make sure to write on or sign the plastic seals of the package to make sure it’s visible that it was opened after I shipped it now
Unfortunately, there’s not. We don’t get to participate in the tracking fun. ðŸ˜
on iPhone, Settings>General>AppleCare, there it will say something about AppleCare One. I did it in the first couple days it was offered so don't remember the exact description.
Make sure the three devices monthly AppleCare cost adds up to more than $20 or you'll be paying more for them with the One plan.
Ok. Thanks. Well at least I got the first pickup time on Friday morning. Gonna be a loooong week though LOL
Ordered at 8:01 PM 256 in blue. Date was 9/25. Just checked the app at 11:45 p.m. now shows 9/19 but no email or push notification.
A long week till we have our 17 devices, but before you know it it'll be 2026 and we'll be talking about how long it'll be before delivery/pickup times for iPhone 18 in a week! lol
So true!! Next year will be insane with the iPhone Fold being developed currently.
2026 might be the year of the fold. But I think like the iPhone X there will be a delay in the release.
The first fold is the beta. The 2nd fold will be were they fix all the mistakes.
Yes it’s Christmas time for us Apple nerds
The Labubu’s power doesn’t hold a candle to his reality distortion field.
I got my order in at 8:01 and even I got the 25th. But I was moved up when I checked the app at 11:30 p.m.

That probably isn’t the phone. Phones typically go with UPS and FedEx gets accessories.
Mine will be delivered on 10/3. I got the 1 TB Cosmic Orange (coming from a 256 GB 13 PM in Alpine Green - will trade in thru Verizon).
This is my very first preorder of any Apple product. I'm super excited.

I am very curious as to when the Apple Fold will come out also. Assuming that it does come out next year, I wonder if Apple will release the Fold along with the normal 18 lineup next September. I guess I always just assumed that Apple would want to make the Fold a separate launch, but who knows. Especially like you said if it ends up being further delayed they might not have a choice but to release it at a stand-alone event.
I didn't order any accesories. The box weighs 2.0 lbs, too heavy for the device return stuff, and the sender requested to hold for delivery until Friday.
I have received iPhones through Fedex before
A week isn't bad. I can't remember which year it was right now, but there was at least 1 recently where the gap was 2 weeks. So in that vein 1 week isn't bad!
Those who are in the Preparing to Ship’ state, look for a UPS tracking number. There should be several waves of folks getting tracking info.
