Should I preorder it now and wait that 3-4 weeks or wait until it is available for pickup at my local store?

Details:
  • iPhone X 64gb Space Grey
  • Any of the Oregon stores

Just pre order... then the date will get bumpers up, you’ll get excited and then UPS will make you insane because your product ends up stuck in Korea with no end in sight to the, seeming, boycott by UPS to actually complete the shipping of your product. You’ll then toil researching flight after flight leaving ICN — watching one by one leave with your iPhone still in purgatory in Southeast Asia

I’d say it will be faster if cancel and wait for it to be available to pick up at your local stores
 
Anyone know if I preorder the TMobile GSM model for pick up, I can ask for the Verizon model in store when I go to pick it up?

Will the Apple store let me have the Verizon model without providing any account details like they request online?
I do not think that they are allowed to give you the Verizon model. I got the AT&T/TMobile model for my unlocked X with AT&T sim card.
 
Great question, I am not sure.
Type in flightaware.com and put in the China location first and guess where its headed like anchorage

Did anyone else who was scheduled for a November 3 delivery not get it? Mine updated to scheduled Monday delivery this morning :( Also very strange UPS scans (I live in California)

UPS lied! No way my phone, which has been in Korea for over TWO DAYS will possibly make it to me for their promised Monday delivery.

Last flight out of ICN Left 20 minutes ago and — shock of shocks — my phone didn’t leave.

UPS sucks! Thanks a lot, UPS, for taking a really happy moment (when Apple shipped early) and completely and INCOMPETENTLY screwing it up

Apple went way above and beyond to satisfy their customer. UPS went out of their way to SCREW the customer.
 
ITALY:
ordered today. Delivery Estimate: 6/12-14/12

Again you’re making an assumption UPS is somehow lying to you. Outside of you tracking the planes how do you know it will be late?

Also my phone that was in Korea the same two days yours was has a departure scan at 8:15am 11/5. Looks like maybe UPS knows what they’re doing?

I wonder if it is really there or already in hub ready to send to you tomorrow. I find most of my iPhones on UPS have gone to Louisville and they either send to Indianapolis on Sunday -- hour form me, or depending on Logistics to a hub down I-57 in Illinois about same distance from me. Then Sunday night early Monday the packages make journey to my town in east central Illinois and are out for delivery by 9 AM or so.

Hopefully once our phones make it to the central hub of UPS that they will use for us to ship out (smaller shipments by plane or in my case always usually truck) we will probably see some data finally.

I guess you were correct. At 2:56 my phone left Alaska, I guess on its way to Louisville. I see 2 flights that left Alaska to Louisville that it could be on.

UPS51 or UPS2997.

It left 40. Minutes ago on UPS99 which will be Louisville early a.m. Sunday

Mine is probably on UPS99 too based upon the departure scan.
Yes a lot the Korean tour ones seem to be on this flight

I'm going to guess your tracking shows a departure scan time of 8:15 am like mine does now and is on UPS99.

Do you know which flight that is?
