Awesome! I'm in the same boat as you but it hasn't changed yet.. We'll see if it changes anytime today..

This no longer is a boat it has become a ship. Lot of us in it.

I've still got my fingers crossed for you!

Please take 2 tylenols keeping your fingers crossed for few more days will hurt.
 
So my phone that had been sitting in China since 9/17 finally showed it departed about 1:30am Pacific time. Having nothing to do while working graveyard I attempted to track the flights and if I did so correctly it should end up in Louisville tonight around 10pm Pacific time after a stop in Korea and Anchorage. Holding out some hope it can make it to CA so I can get it Tuesday instead of the scheduled Wednesday delivery.

I have the same movement on mine except mine has to come to Pennsylvania. I have a feeling that once it gets to the states the delivery date will update to Wednesday or Thursday, but hopefully I'm wrong.
 
I am in the same boat as you Frank and Chris, mine has been sitting in China since yesterday, with a delivery date of Tuesday. Only way I see that happening is if I am on the UPS77 flight that leaves China for Anchorage in less than 10 minutes. If I am not on that flight, then I don't see how I am going to get it by end of day tomorrow. Mine has to come to SE PA.

EDIT: My delivery just changed to Wednesday....
 
status was updated from preparing for shipment to shipped overnight...took like 2 days for that change. expected delivery is thursday! woo!

original delivery estimate was oct 3-7.

i ordered matte black 32 GB iphone 7.

I'm hoping that mine changes to shipped too sometime today or tomorrow. The status has been on PFS since Saturday morning.

Has your phone left China yet? My tracking appears to be correct so far and UPS now shows that my phone is in Korea. If it goes on UPS 5X99 (not sure if that is an official number or just what the random site I found uses for it) it will leave Korea in about an hour and a half for Anchorage.
 
Mine doesn't but I have seen other people say the same thing in other threads. If it bothers you I would take it to the Apple Store and see what they say.
Someone else reported this and took it to an Apple store where they could reproduce it - he's stuck with his current phone until a replacement is available (no stock). The only thing I noticed was how hot my phone got while doing all of my syncing and loading of data/apps/music/etc.... Once that was complete it's operating normally.

Good luck!

Cheers,
Bobbie

Nope, mine is still in ZhengZhou, China.

Mine was supposed to arrive on the Sept 16th but got delayed until Sept 27th. I checked Apple's store reservation system and they had one in stock at my local Apple store so I got it yesterday. When the shipped one arrives I'll just return it.
 
Well looks like our China iPhones are now sitting in Korea. At least it's moving and it still says it will arrive tomorrow. I only live less than two hours from Louisville.

Enough said
 
Hopefully you will get some movement soon. Mine sat in China showing UPS had it for about 48 hours before it actually left.

Mine will probably leave tonight or tomorrow then, been in China since early Sunday morning eastern US time.
 
I'm right there with you. My phone has been sitting in ZhengZhou since 11:00pm yesterday (I assume that is ZhengZhou time).

Yep thats the same as me and I think with time difference, that was about 5am eastern time or something like that, lol.

I am trying to look to see if there are any other UPS flights out of ZhengZhou today but can't seem to find any, but not sure if I am looking at the right place.

Mine does not even show a delivery date, it only states this on the UPS tracking - "Scheduled delivery information is not available at this time. Please check back later." The Apple email says I will get it on Thursday but my phone has been sitting in China since yesterday.
 
Mine is in Incheon, Korea as of about ten minutes ago. Still says delivery tomorrow.

Same. Not sure how it will be delivered by tomorrow, though. I'm in AL. My original estimate was 9/22 which seems more reasonable (or 9/21). Not that I'd be upset with it being delivered tomorrow :)
 
Absolutely. I did it today. Made an 11 o clock reservation at apple and cancelled my pre-order around 9:30. Currently typing from a matte black 7+ I would've had to wait until 10/4-10-10 for.
i just tried you cant do that i called to make
appointment they said they dont have any to pick up tried couple times even chatted

I ended up chatting with Apple yesterday because I paid the extra $10 for 2-3 day business shipping and it "shipped" yesterday and Apple says I won't get it until Thursday which is not 2-3 business days. They used the same worldwide saver shipping method they always use. The guy I was chatting with at Apple tried to tell me that "Counting Monday, 3 business days would be on Thursday." I told him no it would not, it would be Wednesday, check your math. They refunded me the $10 shipping.

My 7+ JB has been PFS since Saturday. Card charged. Not in support profile yet nor UPS.

I REALLY want to switch to a matte black using Apple's online reservation system, but no luck so far.

They always use 'Worldwide Express Saver' ? If that's the case then I'm calling for a refund too because I also paid the $10..
