they goofed my order up on day one. I did not find out till Monday. they gave em a ton of excuses and blamed me. then finally canceled the order and reordered it. but the canceled order shipped then the replacement shipped I got them both on the same day.
Get the screen protector. You may have a bumble or two getting used to a different sized phone. A VERY differently sized phone.
Yep ordered a Screen protector and the Unicorn Supcase, have one on my SE and its done well, phone shipped it will be here monday two days before my case, so gonna have to be careful
Went to pickup my Apple Watch 44 SG alum and walked out with an SG Xs!
It’s crazy how different everyone’s experience has been.
Out of 10 deliveries - UPS is sitting at 40% damaging boxes and usually the product inside.
They delivered our 55inch SONY, cracked the hell out of the screen - twice! They switched to Fedex - got it with no damage.
FedEx delivered my iPhone this year on time and no damage. Last year was UPS - and they lost the order, then found it - then refused to deliver it. Held it at their facility for pickup. Didn’t tell us. Found out by calling their customer service.
UPS and Fedex experience must be a regional thing.
I went to the Apple store after I got the phone and got the monthly plan.
Hmmm. I’m not sure. That’s why it was just easier for me to go in store the day after launch.
I went with AC+T&L 14.99 monthly. Comes right off my CC on file with Apple.

UPS did the same thing to me. Cracked 55 inch tv. Anything that comes FedEx doesn’t look like it was kicked and left in the rain! UPS is terrible! Where I work we use UPS for the majority of our Customers. I can’t tell you how many calls we get with UPS showing delivered and items were not, not to mention the damage. It’s embarrasing!

So I had to laugh at this one. I pre ordered and received my phone on release day (9/21). I was able to track my shipment via myAT&T during the process.
Today I received an email from att that my order had shipped and when checking the att app I had a notification there as well. Wow, it’s been really 20 days since I got the phone and they’re just now letting me know “it’s on the way”!

Been a couple weeks now since I've had my Max, have to say at first I wasn't 100% sure, but now I'm in love with the Max. Curious is anyone who ordered within the first 24 hours hasn't gotten their phone yet?
Is anyone considering going with the XR, had the XS Max come in PRODUCT RED I'd have gotten that, but I'm good with my SG 512gb Max.

Going back to bed...got in pre-order for XR, black 64gb at 1:55 thru at&t. Apple site is still down for me.
Hahahaha! I thought it was quirky as well while placing my order through on my Samsung tablet - albeit it was 3:45am.
Anyways: 128GB XR White via AT&T's website.
I just decided to upgrade my X yesterday and all at&t store in CT dont have 256 silver. I went thru apple online and ordered from there and pickup the same day. As soon as i opened the new phone my old sim was deactivated. Blown away with the process.
I've been an ATT customer for 20 years, have had 0 problems ordering online before... Tried ordering Black Xr 128, Friday... continued through this afternoon... at least a dozen online attempts... 4 "chat convo's", 3 calls still no joy... At the end of the last call, they told me to call my local store... I did "We can't take orders over the phone, you have to come in" I didn't want to drive the 25 minute each way trip. So, I decided to try online One More Time. 45 seconds later, phone order was complete... I have no idea why it worked this time and not before... the Chat and Phone CSR's had no idea why I or they couldn't order either... Tried both Safari and Chrome, it did go through on Safari...
What a pain in the ass... I'm expecting the Xr to not be...
Good Luck to All!
