Just got a delayed email from Apple...again.

My iPhone 7 256GB Silver looks like it won't be here until mid-October now.

Checked this morning and UPS has a delivery date of 10/3. Hopefully that's true, but then I've never bought right after launch so we'll see.

UPS has always been spot on for me, BUT I've never had a package come from overseas direct through them either.

I'm happy to report I'm finally out of the "processing" doghouse. I just got moved to Preparing for Shipment.. so after weeks of loading my email up to see the status link.. I finally got it..

Ordered Jet Black iPhone 7 128, on 9/9 8:00 PM (est) The date didn't change though. (Oct 10-17)

What carrier? Because you are luck from what I've been seeing.

I'm on the same exact path. Flight to Anchorage is delayed a little, but we should be taking off in 30 mins.

We should be getting tomorrow if all goes well with customs. Does UPS say expected delivery of Monday for you too though? That seems really conservative.
Can there really be that much weather, that much mechanical failure that hampers UPS shipments?

I'm on the same boat (or flight:confused:). I chatted with UPS yesterday and they know absolutely NOTHING about what's going on and keep apologizing...

I have literally the exact same log. I'm hoping it actually made the flight to Louisville and is on its way to San Francisco today. I've definitely seen that happen to a lot of people where UPS just misses scans and it shows up magically. Good luck!

I'm late to the party.

I usually preorder, but was actually hesitant this time around. Then....I found out late about the AT&T trade in deal so I ordered on the 24th - through Apple as AT&T had late November estimates on a Black 128 GB 7 plus.

My order is obviously still processing, but my estimate jumped to 10/25-11/1.

Hope to see it sooner so I've been monitoring this thread. Thankfully my 6S+ is perfect so I'm not really in a rush! :)

I've followed shipments for YEARS and never Seen so many ridiculous entries. Last night it said expect a delay of delivery. It was Promised for delivery on order day (9/9) between 10/4-10/10. Onceit processedit went to 10/5 by end of day. Yesterday it went to could have a one day day. This morning it says delivery by end of 10/3....

Never have I seen the days change like this and I worked at a Best Buy for a decade working with the shilling teams and working with mailing order to customers through UPS. Not once did I ever see this happen. SO really, what's going on.

To people who've already received their phones... where do you think it will arrive next? Alaska? I live outside of Philadelphia if that helps.

I say go with what Apple tells you. I ordered 2 phones. One has already been delivered (it was on the 801 flight) the other is stuck somewhere in China according to my tracking. On the one I have received, UPS gave me 4 different delivery dates before they finally delivered on the date Apple gave me.
