Tomorrow there will be an influx of people saying their cards have been charged and they got their shipment notifications

Meanwhile, I'm sitting here thinking should I skip class to get on the line

Yours arrived a day before mine. Curious though, where did your phone ship from originally?

I went with the Apple Leather case in Midnight Blue. Ive had the Apple Black Leather for the past 24 months and it help up great!

That's nice! Is this your first Spigen? I've heard good things about them.

Checking in for a friend, does anyone know where Apple Preorders are at with Matte Black iPhone 7 Plus 128GB preorders? ~ what preorder time is the cut off for shipments right now?

Nope :-(

I got an otterbox defender, a spigen, and a knockoff see through back case. I know everyone says the defender is too big, but I have bad hands and it's easier for me to not have to grip a small phone in a case.

 

[Dopplerdixon]

how did this guy already got his phone?

Tech reviewers/media seed got previews

Awesome! I always wondered how protective the Apple cases are.

The defenders are great cases, you have to protect your phone right!

You are going to ask to hold your package and come and pick it up yourself?

Spigen Liquid Armor

Just checked their website and I'm thinking of ditching otterbox for this case. Looks good! And a little less bulky than the otterbox cases

 

[Christocentric]

Strong statement calling somebody a flat liar. I guess you work for the Apple financial department. most likely you did not even notice it, but it happened . No order is processed without a pending charge PERIOD. END CONVERSATION.

They always hit my cc when I order.

Awesome! I always wondered how protective the Apple cases are.

pretty protective, IMO. for my iphone 6 plus, i had about 5-6 different cases for it but my favorite one was the apple silicone case. i love how it's anti-slip b/c of the silicone and its got good grip. i also like that it never caught dirt or scratches (i had a lilac color) and it just fit the phone so well. i dropped my phone once and only the corner had a slight dent but other than that - it's still kicking and protecting the phone! because of this, i ordered a silicone case for my iphone 7 plus

Verizon charged my Amex. Order confirmation email received 3:28 am EDT. Matte black 7 Plus, 128gb. It said "shipping the 23rd" even this afternoon last time I checked.

 

[Alexrat1996]

Tommmorw we should see the ship status last year mine showed shipped status a day before launch date

Same here.

Spigen Liquid Armor

I just can't put a case on any of my phones anymore. Thus far I've faired well. Now watch me break it tomorrow lol.

Here is what I could find on UPS61

Date Aircraft Origin Destination Departure Arrival Duration
9/15/16 B742 Taiwan Taoyuan Int'l Anchorage Intl 08:41PM CST 01:03PM AKDT Scheduled
9/14/16 B742 Anchorage Intl Louisville Intl 03:15PM AKDT 12:53AM EDT (+1). Scheduled

Not sure the trip from Anchorage to Louisville listed is going to take our phones that are delayed and waiting in Taiwan, or if it's another batch of phones that made it past the typhoon. The whole it being tomorrow in Taiwan is confusing me. I wish that the whole planet would adapt to a universal time like a star date.

i'm still hoping we'll be okay but i wish i knew why ours went from china to hong kong to taiwan instead of china to anchorage like all the other ones? or china to korea to anchorage or china straight to anchorage..i mean, i know we'll never know but it's just so weird that this was the one weird route out of all of them!
