Has anyone that did NOT order within an hour or the pre-ordering opening up had any movement yet ? Or is it just those who ordered right away so far?

When I placed my preorder, there was a delay with Sprint's servers. I didn't get the order completed until 3:32am EST. I'm thinking that the 256gb matte black must've been short on supply because it was delayed to 6-8 business day to ship.

Anyone else have this happen with theirs?

My leather case order is still processing.

Delivery date is Sep 13-15 and shipping is 1-3 business days.

Ordered the case on Sep 9. When will it be shipped out? LOL

so i only have an arrival scan into Hong Kong, no departure scan...but when I saw it this morning, I went over to flightaware & i thought it was this flight: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/UPS63 but I'm guessing not since I have no departure scan? or sometimes it's super delayed and won't get updated until they land?
I was hoping mine would move too, but it still says Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong 09/13/2016 5:49 P.M. Arrival Scan

Sorry I realize that my post wasn't quite clear. I had to search by phone number as the reference # because order # didn't turn up any results.

I finally got my tracking number by using my 10 digit billing phone# as a reference. The only other reference I saw I could have used was my iPhone 7 serial number. The order# was not listed...truncated or otherwise. There were other references, but none that meant anything to me.

BTW, iP7 128G matte black

Well, this time was different and it did NOT work, I got my confirmation at 15 after and my order pushed to 9/27-9/29 which is a reason to cancel since I was needing to get this before I go into the backcountry for a month long magazine assignment on 9/28. I did manage to get the shipping date expedited and the dates now read 9/20-9/22.
Did you call Apple or chat with an online rep to get your shipping expedited? I'm in a similar situation where I'm heading on the road for a month and am hoping I can somehow get my phone before I leave on the 23rd (27-29 ship date currently). Total long shot, and improbable, but just curious if at all possible.

From past years, not normal however stories have said pre-orders for 7 have far exceeded demand. Jet Black and Matte Black on the 7+ are the highest demand. If you had other models, you will get at launch likely. It appears that Jet Black for the 7+ few are seeing movement yet. I got my order completed 10 mins past and on the Oct 4-10th group. Still hopeful, but likely wont see this for another 2 weeks.

Nice to black back in vogue after last years rose gold and the previous years kardashian gold.

I called on an unrelated question ( CC that was used ). I gotta log outta here for awhile, I am just getting more ticked by the minute.

Same here. Once I saw my actual reference #s listed, I realized that there was no way that searching by Order # was ever going to work. Just serial and phone, and, like you said, a few other seemingly meaningless (to me) other numbers.

The iPhone 7 with delivery date for the 16th
Since my profile says I'm a newbie, no one is likely to believe me. My 7+ matte black was order around 2:10a central last Friday. Has shown as 'preparing for shipment' since 5a that day and was charged my card was charged at the same time. Been waiting since then for shipment details....

It now shows up in my support profile, but still says 'preparing for shipment' in the Apple Store app. I checked ups using my phone # as reference, and I see a new item. In ZhengZhou as of this morning, but says delivery by Thursday Sept 15 by 10:30a.

Guessing it has to be a mistake, or the date will soon change to Friday. Still...weird. I'll try to post a screenshot soon, if the date doesn't change later this morning.[/QUOTE
Phone will be delivered on Friday 16, 2016 carrier will hold until Friday . Everyone is in a tissy about getting phone on launch day. ( I'm not saying that you have been complaining ) phones that arrive By Thursday can be overnighted for Friday delivery. Enjoy your new IPhone 7+ Black 128 gig. I'm Jelous mine isn't due till early October 4-10 .

No movement for me. Still says Processing Items Ships: 6-8 business days Delivers 27 Sep, 2016 - 29 Sep, 2016 by Standard Shipping. I ordered a 7+ 128GB Silver. My order went through about 90 minutes after they went live.

I'm in the same boat. Ordered 7+ 128GB silver, 33 minutes past when the store opened.
No reference tracking, not in my support profile, still processing with a 27-29 delivery.

I've yet to see anyone with a 27-29 delivery have any luck tracking.

Has anyone who are picking up the iPhone 7 at an Apple Store this Friday moved beyond "processing"?

I haven't and haven't seen that anyone else has either. I've been asking as well. It doesn't seem like many people on this forum chose that option. I'm pretty confident that we'll get ours on Friday though. If that is what your pickup time says then I'm pretty sure you're good.
