Got it with a pick up time of 8-8:30 pm Friday evening. The AP is about an hour from us and he wants to pick up rather than have delivered. I always have mine delivered. Went with Apple Upgrade Program instead of ATT Next this time. Heading back to bed. Have to get up in 2 hours.
Yeah interesting how slow it is.
I'm located overseas and am having my phone re-routed to me from my US address, but that takes up to an additional 2 weeks. Which at that point, I'll be back in the states for a week or so. Now I'm wondering if I should just cancel it and test my luck picking it up in a store when I'm there. I was going to do pick up, but can only pick up for the 26th as of the moment. If I keep my pre-order and my phone doesn't get here before I fly out on the 9th, then I'll have to wait until until Nov 20th before I have it in hand... sigh.

I'd cancel it and try your luck when you are back. I see that some you can still pre-order and still have it be delivered on Friday.
Edit to add: Plus doesn't seem like it's as popular as the XS/Max from the looks of it.
I originally preoreded my white 128gb XR with ATT on their website but they cancelled my order and I had to wait until this morning to call and have them reset my upgrade eligibility. Then I was able to place my order on Apples site for lick up on Friday morning. Thank goodness for either lots of stock or little demand for my color choice.
I’m back for the second time this year. After the OLED screen in the Max didn’t work out for me, I decided to try out the XR. If this doesn’t work, I’ll stay with my 8+. I ordered the white 256GB. I ordered late so I’m happy that there’s enough stock for everyone! Can’t wait for next Friday.
Fingers crossed that the XR works out for us!
I’m hoping and I think it will. If it’s anything like the 8plus lcd I will be golden.
I just pre-ordered the red 128 (which seems to be popular here!) I’m half-wondering if I’m going to regret not going with the XS, though. Good thing I have a trial period!
Ordered a Coral 256gb Xr for my wife at literally 3 minutes after the site went live.
Ship date slid out to 10/29.
I guess they didn’t anticipate the demand for the mid-range models.

They must of made a ton of them as all storage sizes and colors are still available to ship and pickup in store on 10/26 in Colorado for the XR. I’ve never seen a preorder like this
