Yes, I did. AT&T was open for pre orders before 8am EST too.
My configuration is still available on AT&T for 9/19 delivery. Considering cancelling my 9/25 Apple order and just doing it that way.
Verizon had errors during their preorder (my first time ever having an issue with the VZ app but they are on it now)
I just received my shipment notification and tracking number to be held at UPS

My order was “preparing to ship” hours after ordering, Apple’s quick to take your money this year 😅. I was going to cancel and get a Pro Max.
hi, all, i was wondering what's the status for pick-up in store after 20th September, currently in my region my config delivery dates are 2nd week of OCT next month, was wondering if the in-store pickup options be available later or should i go and order for oct delivery, would really appreaciate if any one can guide me on this.
Was just charged for $115.34 for the sales tax for my IUP PM, 9/19 delivery. Moving right along. Hurry up, Friday!
That's really nice but only delivers 15W to the iPhone. The new 17 fast charges at 40W so I'm looking for something beefier. Someone else posted an Anker beast that has a max charge of 250W GaN. It's not a 3 in 1 but it will work for me. Thanks for the reply though.

Here you go. This is from a couple of years ago so maybe some things have changed-grain of salt.
If your phone status has changed to "Shipped", you can view the invoice on the Apple site.
That invoice has the serial number on it.
Go to Apple.com, then pick the ORDERS page (the little "shopping bag" icon at the far right on the home page... go to your orders page). Now, log in, and find your iPhone order... and click on Print All Invoices to see your shiny new iPhone serial number.
You can look up the week of manufacture and factory here, using the serial number:

Links for tracking:

Another way to find it, enter your phone number + zip:
https://www.villagedrapes.com/html/tracking.html
If your phone number isn’t working for UPS tracking, use your order number but subtract the last 2 numbers. Say your order number is: W123456789, you'd put in: W1234567 - make sure to use the tracking by reference feature.
Flight info:

When you see the time that your flight leaves China (make sure that the UPS or FedEx info is showing it per China time, or do the math), and you can usually narrow it down
It's an art form. Using the FlightAware website, track UPS places from China > Incheon; Incheon > Anchorage; Anchorage > Louisville; Louisville > your location. You have to follow the tracking info and match your "departure" timestamp with the flight on FlightAware.
For what it’s worth, I had carrier financing for 9/25. I canceled that order one hour ago, waited about 15 minutes, and placed a new order with carrier financing (Verizon) for 9/19 delivery. The new order is now preparing to ship and I can see an authorization on my card for taxes.

Mine is still 9/25. Now I’m kicking myself because for like an hour after I ordered I could’ve simply canceled and started a new order and gotten 9/19.
Same! So mad at myself for not doing that but really don’t want to drive 4 hours for one.
Select few?? There seem to be many "select few"s. Some of us contacted Tim Cook and got a call from his exec team. In my case the rep said he succeeded in bumping me to 9/19. But I also think Apple fixed its internal error after hearing from several of us.
Mine is a 512gb PM Orange, got changed to 9/19 delivery yesterday (Friday) afternoon.
Still waiting for a charge on mine but my loan was approved again
That's great news. Yes, once the exec team gets involved they get things done. I used to have a contact there named Keegan. He was so kind to me, very responsive. I always name my devices, named my phone that year Keegan. He's moved on to a different department now but the exec team member who called me yesterday was also really helpful. Supposedly Tim Cook reads every email he receives. Doubt that's true but his exec team does and they usually respond quickly and get things moving.
That must confirm what some of you were thinking that some phones are coming from India
Yes I read something about that too. I got the Anker 250W GaN charger on the recommendation of someone here. It's a beast. One of its USB-C ports charges at a max of 60W. Wonder whether that would deliver the max charge to the iPhone. Hate to buy yet another charger from Apple. It kind of sucks that for all the money we pay for our phones they don't include that charger. "As of 2025, Tim Cook's net worth is estimated to be around $2.5 billion. He has accumulated this wealth primarily through his role as CEO of Apple Inc. and his ownership of Apple shares." I think they can afford to include a charger of some sort.I wonder if the switch 2 charger I picked up (rated at 67 watts) would work for the fast charging for my pro max?
