I saw last year that the Sunday after pre-orders posters were sharing that their status on att.com went to preparing to ship

I hope this is true. Apple.com orders are saying preparing to ship already.I ordered my mother two phone on there and that’s what the status said today.

Which phone did you preorder, I would worry to much as its the weekend and such. If ATT showed you would get it on Friday I would suspect you get it on Friday.

I got the iPhone XS Max in Gold 256GB. I’m kinda nervous because the website just shows in progress...

Btw it does say it will be delivered by Sept 21... So hopefully it’ll work. I’m worried because I had originally left AT&T and went to T-Mobile but I decided to come back through winback and everything went smooth. Well as soon as I came back to AT&T I made my preorder, so hopefully everything went through. I hope it doesn’t flag me for fraud.

Is there a difference between using ATT Next and using Apple's seemingly identical 24 month-trade in after 12 month plan?

I looked at upgrading through Apple and they offered $400 for my iPhone 8 Plus and then I would need to pay off the $475 remaining on AT&T Next. By upgrading through AT&T, the entire $475 gets cleared. It was a difference of $75 for me.

One of my orders is preparing to ship. The other still in progress (which was the first one I placed) weird.

Mine was like that after I ordered. The second one updated to "in progress". The first one still said processing and then it got cancelled with no explanation except to place another order.

My order was placed at 9:57 pm on the 14th and I am guaranteed a delivery on the 21st. It says in progress right now.

Hoping that AT&T doesn't screw you over. Good luck!

I am sure they didn't my orders never said processing. They've both said in progress. both orders are not the same either. The one still in progress has a watch with it so that could be why. I've never had an issue ordering with ATT

Neither of my orders ever said processing.

It’s always frustrating when people who ordered after you get status bumps before you.

There is no rhyme or reason. I placed two orders yesterday the first one is still in progress - the second is preparing to ship.

I'm getting the Xs Max 256 gb but don't know what color. I might go to the apple store before deciding. Coming from a jet black iPhone, I think I'll switch it up.

It doesn't matter whose status changed first or last. If you have a delivery date of the 21st, you will get your device(s) the same day as everyone else that also has a delivery of the 21st.
[doublepost=1537057109][/doublepost]Anyone ever ordered an Apple Watch and iPhone at the same time with same delivery date? Will they ship together or seperate?

Anyone who ordered a 512gb space grey XS max have preparing to ship yet, ordered at 1am Saturday morning got 21st as delivery date I assume not many people are upgrading to a 512 or at all.
