Mine says out for delivery between 3:45-7:45PM so just staring out the window waiting for the UPS store!
Wish I knew about Zagg, I added a tempered glass purchase from LoopyCase since that's where I got my case.

Best Buy also sells zagg cases. i dont like dealing with best buy, but it beats waiting for shipping. Return the loopycass screen.

New IUP this year. I would see a lot of problems if it was an existing IUP though.

Good to know, I figured it'd be a huge process to cancel a preorder and pick one up in-store since we'd have to deal with the whole loan thing. Phones were actually in stock at my local store last Saturday but I passed.

Thank you very much! Yes, the anxiety will disappear once it's in my hands. I am running to the Apple Store Grand Central now to pick up an Apple leather folio case (to hold me over until my Vaja arrives). That should distract me...

I think we're on this flight. I just got a departure scan out of Incheon at 7:15am: http://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS97
 
So order’s gotten this far as of right now. Any chance of it still being delivered by tomorrow (I live in the D.C. area) with overnight-ing it or is UPS probably just going to shoot for next Monday? I originally had a delivery date of the 10th but, like a lot of others, saw my delivery date get pushed back a few days after a delay in Incheon. Anyone know how long it generally takes after reaching Louisville?View attachment 734055
Did you end up receiving it on the 10th or the 13th? I'm in the same situation with this weekend.. Thanks!
 
UPS tracking says my phone left Anchorage at 11:33pm yesterday, and there's been no activity since. Gah. I keep checking and checking, and nothing's happening.
 
Why are iPhones delivered in the states sent via a courier from China, but UK deliveries are shipped from a central Apple hub ?
 
You’ll lose Apple Watch workout data if accomplishing a clean restore.

If you have to keep your old health data… Then use restore from iCloud back up. The health data is stored there as well. Just don’t do an iTunes restore. They are the worst.
 
Hey everyone. So one of our phones went to Korea. Will it still hit Anchorage or could it go directly to Louisville?

Everything from Asia first goes to PANC due to fuel. Then it goes to WorldPort in Louisville to be sorted.
 
So far my phone has spent 5 days sitting in Zhengzhou and 3 days in Incheon.

From notification, on the 8th, my phone has moved very little. Just now, I got a departed in Incheon.

This is after I called Apple and asked, what's going on. Why does it just sit there? Answer: Must be delayed.

At time of preorder, ETA was 17-24... At the time of shipping, ETA was the 14th. At the time of the great delay, ETA was pushed out to the 16th, I even got a email form UPS, your package will deliver today. It's the 16th, and still it's in Incheon.

Anyone's phone with mine, or did it fall off a pallet somewhere?
 
Aaannnndddd ..... UPS lost my package. They say it may still be delivered Friday, if they can locate it in time :p
 
After seven days in Zhengzhou...finally my launch morning order moved to Incheon. Man, UPS really made that slow.

Yep. Philly stores had a bunch of 256 Silvers available today too. iStockNow.com was the best find from these forums this time around. So valuable a tool after launch day - for those of us who deal with the back order abyss.
 
Well - looks like more and more of you are getting your phones in due course or cancelling preorder and going to a store.

It’s been ‘fun’ for another year hangin with u folks! But time for me to rejoin my jailbreak forums hoping for one to come soon! A stock Apple phone is just boring. Gotta change those icons.. yuck!! And icon square positioning!! Yuck! :).

Thanks, TimeSquareDesi for nominating me Thread Mayor. There are actually loads of folks here with as much and more experience than I️. I’m just the most “verbal”.. ..

Hope the rest of u get your phones soon!! ‘Til 2018, peace out, all !!

Happy Holidays!!
 
Will go back now and read ;) isn’t this seriously the sickest piece of tech you’ve ever used??

Totally SICK! Coming from the 5.5” phones only thing I️ don’t like is the smaller keyboard to type on. It’s back to the 4.7” phone sized keyboard. They wasted space at the bottom of this gorgeous screen by putting the Emoticon and Dictation buttons there and nothing else. Should have made keyboard keys larger.

But everything else - AWESOME!!!

See ya 2018, bro!!
