I wonder if the shipping date for people who pre prepared their preorder was based on the order in which they pre prepared their preorder.
This was my thought as well. It shows processing. I never got a charge at 8:02am, this time I did. Unless it's already preparing to ship. Not sure.
I accidentally ordered a phone with the wrong card. So I ordered another one. The first order moved to preparing. Which I was then able to cancel. The second still says order placed. Both were set to arrive the 19th.
What was weird is that when my app did finally open it pulled a pop up with the order page not the phone I had set up for preorder so I got out of that and to the for you page and went from there
I didn’t get into the store until almost 10 minutes after 5am pacific. I had a pre-order 17pro 512gb blue that I placed when pre-orders opened up. Added a 17 pro max 256 blue for my MIL a day or two later. Both were no carrier selected. Both went through with a Sep 19 delivery. Got confirmation emails about 10 minutes later.
You convinced me - I just canceled and reordered both phones. Still showing “processing,” but now showing launch day delivery.
This pre-order did not go well.
Somehow I placed two orders instead of 1. One phone is a pickup the other is being shipped.
The pickup phone was out on my Apple Card but not Apple Pay so I would not get the full 3% Apple Cash.
The other phone was done correctly through Apple Pay but is being delivered.
I called Apple and after 20 minutes on hold they cannot correct any of it or cancel the 2nd order.
I know I selected in-store pick up for the second order, but somehow it got changed to shipping via UPS.
The send order cannot be cancelled as it’s preparing to ship.

I assume these weren’t IUP orders?
That’s my concern with cancelling, I don’t think I can redo the program right away.
You see that just doesn’t make sense you ordered the exact same pro max configuration after me and got a 9/19 date it really must be a glitch then
That’s right, we aren’t on any upgrade program. Paying in full and trading in 11Pro and 13Pro. Hopefully 9/25 was a glitch and you will still end up with a launch day phone.
Having had the 11 Pro Max, the 15 Pro Max and buying the 16 Pro Max for my kid... I really don't understand why people aren't more concerned about these PM phones getting bigger and heavier. I don't get it but hey if it makes them happy...
I was delayed in getting in the store and got a 9/25 date. I just went through the store app and it’s showing a 10/6-10/13 delivery date for the 256 gb Max Pro but a 9/19 pickup date for the nearest store to me 2 hours away.
I guess the only positive of having a 9/25 date is that it gives Apple 2-weeks to fix iOS 26.
Yeah glitch is most likely especially when you’d expect a date range not a specific date like launch day on the 19th.
same
Got my order in at 8:08 eastern for a 17 Pro 256gb and delivery of 9/25first time I've missed release day delivery since being on the iPhone Upgrade Program
Uh...sure...but bug fixes/point releases won't really fix the OS entirely...just patch updates
I preordered and when I finalized my order. I got charged right away (within 1-2 min).
Oh definitely. It’s just some of the visual issues between iOS/iPadOS that I’m hoping that once the masses get their hands on it, they’ll see it and hopefully Apple can get them fixed by then.
