If you pre-ordered your iPhone at midnight PST on iPhone 8 pre-order night, did you get your iPhone on release day last Friday, or did it get delayed??

I know this doesn't answer your question but, I pre-ordered on the Thursday after (6 days later) and I got my phone in the mail yesterday (Monday).

So I doubt there were any delays.

Mine has not even shipped and it's been nearly 10 days. Customer service has not been helpful. Their response is that everything is backordered and the delays are Apple's fault.

I preordered in store at 10:00 CST and did not receive my phone on launch day. I actually just got the email today saying my phone is in, but since nobody online or in store would give me info about my phone and where it was, I contacted the SVP of customer management and received my phone the same day (9/23).

I ordered mine in the afternoon after pre-orders went up, I got mine on release day. 8 64GB, also this should go in the Sprint thread.
