That's an ATT Next order not an Apple Upgrade Program order. Not surprising that ATT has extra feeds.
It was the same last year but then a day or two later they bumped up the date. Hoping for the same this time. Next time I’ll be smart and order the sim free version.
I completed my Apple Upgrade Program T-Mobile XS Max order within one minute after the store opened on the App. My order shows 21 September delivery.
In hand, it felt incredibly narrow to me. So much-so that typing was a challenge. I returned it last year and ended up waiting for the XS Max. To each their own.You’re actually both wrong. The X isn’t a smaller display than 6Plus nor is it “much narrower”. It’s much taller than 6Plus and only 0.052” thinner than 6+. So I’m all practical ways X is superior to 6Plus and 7Plus - even in size. The Max this year, in hand hold size, is identical to Plus phones - but it’s all screen!
I was just at Apple.com handling the pre-order on an iPhone XS Max Gold 512GB. It's not available for pickup at my chosen store location, nor is it available for pickup at 9 other Apple locations - only for delivery. However, I noticed at my chosen store, 9 total XS Gold 512GB is still available for pickup on 9/21/18. Has anyone had success pre-ordering the XS Max 512 in any color for store pickup.
I don't trust delivery nor do I want to go through the hassle if it ends up missing.

Hellow there. Do you plan on going in the morning to pick one up. I'm going to go at open and try to get a watch if they have any
Woke up a little past my alarm and put my order in around 3:17AM EST for a T-Mobile Xs Max 64GB in Space Gray. Was kinda pissed it already got pushed back for Oct 5-12 delivery (I was really hoping for Sept 21 delivery). But I JUST went on Apple's website right now and for the same exact model it's showing Sept 28-Oct 5 delivery... but online for my order (when I click the order # on my email and get linked to the Apple Store website) it's still showing the Oct 5-12 delivery estimate. Should I be worried? Or will I probably get my order sooner than that most likely? I wouldn't think it's very fair if people who pre-ordered the same exact model/carrier AFTER me would get it before me? I really hope a miracle happens and it comes in on launch day.
Ordered my iPhone Xs Max Space Gray 256GB at 2:02AM CST. Got my confirmation email at 2:04AM CST. Everything looks good for launch day delivery. 3rd Year is the charm.
eh? On Tmobiles sites I saw Sep 21 available for the 256. Could have ordered this AM.
LOL the preorder madness. Yep, I'm still holding out for a pushed pick-up date past Sept 21. It hasn't changed yet here in NC Looks like they have plenty of stock with the XS like they did last year with the 8/8 Plus
I bet I can just choose a date to make an appointment and go in store.

Based on the last few years, Apple won’t send shipping notices until the day before delivery. But if you have my ups or a fedex account, you will probably get notified several days sooner that a delivery is coming.

I’m trying to contact Apple now. I went online on my computer and didn’t see an option to edit my shipping address.
Interesting thing - the sim free version of the iPhone wasn’t available via the Apple Store app.
Did a Space Grey XS MAX 512GB for 8am in store pickup on the 21st (Pennsylvania)
It is factually larger. Not going to argue this further. For the people who don't understand this, the Max now exists to satisfy you.
I was thrilled that the Apple Store app was actually up at 12:01am for the first time in several years. Ordered at 12:02am, confirmation email for watch @ 12:03am, phone @ 12:04am, bedtime 12:05am. Of course, then I was too excited to sleep.
Ordered phone first, then watch, just to be safe. Interesting that the watch had no in-store pickups available so I just opted for delivery for both so they'll arrive on the 21st (I assume as two separate shipments).

I got 9/21 on my XsMax 256GB Gold iPhone, 9/21 on my Gold S4 40 mm watch and 9/18 on my Apple Product Red Leather Folio (Smart Cover) for the iPhone.
We are leaving for Europe in early October. So glad I will have everything in time for our trip. It will be great to watch videos on the 'big screen' of the iPhone on the plane

Actually you don’t need a computer. You just need to view your orders at apple.com

OK Thanks. I'm in Southern California, the part of the state of demographic materialistic people, Maybe, they all grabbed them up to get themselves further into debt with their pretentious BMW's who we all know are paid for in credit.
So I was just told by someone at Apple over the phone that they aren’t able to change the shipping address. It has to go to the same address as the loan.
Last year I was able to ship it to my work so I guess they changed that.
