Are Canadians able to use the fedex site to find out where their shipment may be? I've got a UPS tracking # but it's like it is waiting for the package to be delivered before the shipment process starts. So, i'm guessing it's being delivered to them via fedex.
 
I was on the fence and decided last minute to upgrade from the 7 to an 8 Plus last night. Apple store had delivery of 9/26, then tried ATT and same deal. Decided to try Best Buy Mobile and bingo...got in store pickup for 9/22. Same thing happened for me last year when I waited last minute for the 7. I ordered for pick up at Apple store and I walked in and they told me i had to make an appointment to pick it up. I think it was like 2-3 days. I walked about 4 stores down to Best Buy mobile and walked out with a new phone. Always interesting.
 
no ups tracking updates in a couple of days for either of my phones. one is stuck at “departed anchorage” and the other at “arrived at shanghai”. im not worried, but it is interesting that the status hasnt changed.

I have overnight order and I “thought” I had found my tracking number on UPS this past Sunday but upon further investigation it turned out to be my Apple Watch 3. So I’m in the same waiting boat. I just wanna get a hold for pick up on it.

I thought mine had shipped too but in reference numbers I see the Apple Watch 3 order number. BUT my package is 3.10kg so that’s like 6 pounds or something. Is it possible they shipped them together? A watch isn’t 6 pounds alone neither is a phone oh the suspense
 
Has anyone checked their UPS Tracking info they have? I just checked mine on the UPS desktop site and there are now reference NUMBERS showing and I checked the bottom number below my phone number and it registers on apple’s website as an iPhone 8 serial number.

Way to confirm what the device is for that tracking number. I guessed this was my iPhone 8 and guessed right apparently. I’m unsure what the other 4 sets of numbers are as they don’t correspond to my order number at all.

Mine too has departed anchorage on the 17th and that’s it.

Also have Apple Watch 3 ordered and an 8 plus. Weight is 3.00kg. Shows leaving anchorage on the 17th and that’s it. I too wonder if both shipped together.
 
Just checked both UPS/FedEx tracking, still nothing showing up. App still shows preparing for shipment. Still delivers Fri 22 September. /shrug

My phone case and Qi charger from Amazon updated to shipping. Still no tracking on those either.

If you ordered both at same time that is very likely. I ordered separately because I needed to get the phone order in as quickly as possible (or so I thought) and wasn’t too concerned about the Watch.

Got one case and the Belkin Qi charger today … got another case, an AppleTV 4K and an 8+ coming.

Kind of disappointed that I won't get to watching the tracking. Always enjoyed following the tracking when I order stuff online; seeing where things go.

Oh well...here’s Wonder Panda. Weeeeeeee!

How do you confirm the iPhone 8 serial numbers. Saw a link on here earlier went to a dead page
 
Was able to gain a limited amount of info based on my s/n. My phone is a baby!


"Production week : -36- (September)
Production year : -2017-
Model introduced: --
Memory - number of slots: Please tell us how many memory (RAM) slots this machine has.
Factory: C6 (China (Foxxcon, Shenzhen factory))"
 
Thank you for the link. I have ups my choice.
I entered every number I see. 2 of them the ones with letter A both give me a red error message saying this serial number is not valid. All the other numbers don’t do anything.

The 2 that I have that start with the same letter (E) are not it. On my UPS my choice, its the last number listed (starts with the c6) which apparently corresponds to factory. I had previously checked it and got nothing. The link in the OP that leads to a site mostly not english is where I found info, after scrolling down a bit.

My case and charger have been here since Monday. Sure would be nice to get a tracking number
