I ordered for in-store pickup on the 16th. I've never done that before - what should I expect? Still shows processing. When should the status change, and to what? Obviously not preparing for shipping.

My sister lives in the US, whereas I live in Canada so she preordered a T-Mobile iPhone 7 128GB in Rose Gold for me as it's much cheaper even after the exchange rate. On the site, it says these phones are unlocked but come with a T-Mobile SIM.

Since she had to enter her account info when ordering, will there be any issue that she isn't the one that will be using it? Also, do the phones come with the SIM card already inside? If they do, would I still be able to use it in Canada with my carrier (Fido)?

And now the fun begins. Got my tracking info earlier today. Gonna hope for the best that my phone arrives before I go into work on Friday. No luck switching shifts with my co workers. I believe in you, UPS! ;)

When I started pre-order process right after I could access Apple app, I was given Sept delivery date but by the time I finished process it had moved to between Oct. 4 - 10. I chatted online with Apple rep who added expedited shipping so now it shows delivery date between Sept. 30 and Oct. 6. My order still says it is in "Processing." I ordered 7 Plus 128 GB AT&T Jet Black.

Concerned because I will be out of town during most of estimated delivery dates. I leave Oct. 3.Wondering what you can tell me about accuracy of estimated delivery dates.

I also notice the IPhone 7 Plus Rose Gold 128 GB is estimated to deliver September 28 – 30, earlier than mine if that is accurate. I would prefer to have my iPhone 7 plus as soon as possible. I will likely purchase battery case for it anyway so not sure color really matters as long as it has at least 128 GB. My fear is that my Jet Black phone may ship much sooner than estimate and then I'd cancel it then start to order Rose Gold only to get lAter date.


What would u advise?

Do you need this phone that bad? Not judging or anything but, whatever the delivery dates, I'd choose the phone that I want, not the fastest shipping

Some say their system is just going bonkers due to the high demand. I saw other posts in this thread saying it then switched back to Preparing for Shipment after that.
As you've been charged, don't worry, it's probably on the way

I lost it for a minute, but I'm ok now. Thank you for talking me down. LOL :D

Mine have almost always come 1 day before the quoted window (except when quoted for launch day of course). Everyone has different experiences, but i would imagine you get it somewhere between Sep 30 and Oct 4...the updated window they gave you doesn't mean much. As confirmed on other threads, there is no expedited shipping for preorders. They just gave you a less conservative window. Hope it gets to you as early as possible!

Looks like my cc was charged for tax but not the first payment. Says preparing to ship with delivery 9/16. Having never ordered from Apple not sure if I can count on delivery that day. Always had issues at Best Buy and att. Hoping Apple is a better experience.

Plus my iPhone 6 has been acting funky last few months and I'm ready to ditch it. Lol

Mine seems to be working better than ever since going to the latest iOS update, makes me think I could just skip this update, LOL!

But my 7+ black 256gb, it is still in processing and has dates of 9/20-9/22, card still not charged, I have not a clue when I will get it, could be anywhere from the 16th to the end of the month?

Apple hardly ever misses a delivery date. They'd rather overestimate than underestimate. It'd be a chaos for customer satisfaction
