Got mine, currently restoring! Screen protector and cases up already lol

So for WHATEVER reason, my encrypted backup won't accept any of my passwords. I wound up having to restore from the cloud because of my watch.

So much for a fresh install :(

Ended up cancelling my order that I placed for Verizon full price and get the Sim-Free model as it's available now on apple.com.

Yes I already know that the Sim-Free is the Sprint/Verizon Model. But the Sim-Free SKU is marked is Sim-free and no sim card.

Since this is not your fault at all, why Apple doesn't get you a phone from some store or on priority basis? Did you talk to Apple care? This is unacceptable.

yes well jet black is not available in any store near me. i am talking to apple care and they said they are trying their best to prioritize my order. So lets see what happens and yes i was pretty pissed about it.

Proximity Sensor in Jet Black/Mattle Black.
I received Jet Black yesterday and noticed Proximity sensor is not visible where as it is clearly visible in Silver/Rose Gold and Gold models. Is this sensor really hiding in jet black and black colors or missing something here?

Chatted with Apple rep and was not convinced if sensors can be hidden within the color to feel it, may be. I am not very sound in hardware technologies

Honestly, I always use to think, States has the best customer service by far. In fact I still the same cause if you travel to Europe then the customer service is alright, nothing great. In Asia it's even worst. Specially in India.

I'm pretty sure they will go beyond to deliver your iPhone as soon as possible. Hope you get it soon!!!

Haha yeah I could not believe it. My shipping dates still say 11/14-11/22 but I don't know why it would be PFS and I'd be charged the taxes if it really wasn't.

He's right. iPhone 7 shipping time has now reduced to 1-3 business days.

While iPhone 7+ has 3-4 weeks as usual. No change. Jet Black 4-6 weeks.

Just go and visit a store and meet a manager. December is too far man. And especially when you had ordered in September and it wasn't even your fault, then why not get your guns ready and fire them. I'm sure they will have to work something out for you

I should have been more specific. I ordered a 7 Plus, silver 256 for Verizon. Ordered at 10:15 10/13/16 and got my shipment notification email at 11:20 10/13/16.

Did you order through Apple.com or through the carrier's website? I don't think Apple.com because those still show up as 3-4 weeks.

I really hope you do find one at the store. This waiting has been near experience to death lol

My Apple Store usually gets 2-5 att blacks in the week and they sit there for an hour or 2, Verizon blacks sit there for about a day and it's been 2 days for sprint 256 blacks(all sizes are still sitting there) and tmo sits there for a day. I could've had one but couldn't decide between matte or jet black. If I could pick up the sprint without a plan I would.

You are talking about iPhone 7 and not iPhone 7+ right?

Cause there are many hungry people like me who are eagerly waiting for iPhone 7+ to be in the stores
