Ill admit, I can’t remember if it was cut this close previous years, but now we are 2 days out, my XS Max still shows last scanned in China. Anyone else? I know many are already showing either in Alaska or en route to Kentucky.
Mine is still in China,

at 8:39pm here in Charlotte, which means in Zhenzhou it’s 8:39am, if our phones haven’t left during their overnight hours by now, that can’t be good since they leave overnight
 
Both of my phones are still showing in Hong Kong tonight. This is on UPS's site. Apple says they are being prepared for shipment. UPS is really awful about updating though. I have had no updates at all until the package is out for delivery.
 
My XS Max still in ZhengZhou, unless UPS tracking is delayed. I think they will update status not in real-time as the iPhones are already in transit.
 
Not looking good, mine finally moved overnight but arrived in Korea this morning, not Alaska like it should have gone

I love how predictable these launches are. Here we have the classic day-before panicked emails.

Tomorrow we get to look forward to the outraged "My phone didn't get delivered today, I'm suing Apple/ATT/Verizon/BestBuy and never buying anything from them ever again" threads.

haha I wont go that far, I will be disappointed if it doesn't deliver though
 
Mine is still stuck in Incheon, Korea Republic. When i login to the apple order status site it says "There is an issue with your delivery and the carrier is unable to deliver your package. Please contact us at 1-800-MY-APPLE."

On the phone with Apple now. Wonder if they are stuck in customs?
 
Really? I hope that's not the case. It's getting awfully close now and I hope we'll get it tomorrow.
 
My wife and I ordered our phones minutes apart and I finally got a tracking number for hers. Mine moved to Korea a couple of days ago and hers is sitting in China still. Delivery date is still tomorrow on both of them.
 
Has long you have the date of 9/21 you will get it tomorrow. Apple does this all the time. They ship huge numbers the week leading up to the keynote and store them in major ups hubs until launch week. Then after the pre orders another huge batch is sent out and sent the major hubs. then they are all shipped and show up at your door on friday. just relax.

Tim Cook is logistics wizard and has spent many years getting things right.
