Apple is literally making our phones as we speak. They operate just-in-time which means they keep very few units in stock and manufacture as needed. Pre-orders are a good way for them to know how many to make and operate JIT. Don't give up hope until Friday is passed.

Yup. Like I said before for the black models they don't have any historical data so they probably used pre order numbers to find out how mamy they need to make. Hopefully no quality control issues raise from this.

Waiting for a 128gb black 7 Plus. Current ship date is 9/27-10/10. Don't assume some of us plusers won't get them on Friday! Think about it: the gold, rose gold, and silver Pluses JUST started getting shipment updates yesterday. Wait for the shipments to roll in; at least a few of us will get something on launch day.

I love how they say "it may take up to 48 hours for the tracking info to update". PSH! In 48 hours I'll have the dang phone! LOL
Odd.... I was only randomly checking status in MyTMobile when I saw the shipped status for my Rose Gold. The tracking was already listed there. Then I got the shipped email like 5 mins later.

Is the iPhone Upgrade Program better than Jump or Jump on Demand? 7+ 128gb in mind.

Well I have same specs and my ship date is 9/19-9/26 and I have no movement here... so you 9/27's will be after us 9/19's... so don't hold your breathe.

It depends. If you are going to stick with the iPhone, and never move to a different phone, I think the Upgrade program is a bit cheaper year over year, by like 40 bucks or something. The Upgrade program cost more monthly, but you have a $150 down payment with T-Mobile. The upgrade program also includes Apple care, while T-Mobile charges extra each month.

I would go the Upgrade route, but I couldn't place the order online, and the stores are just telling me to come launch day, hence why I ordered via T-Mobile. If I see no signs of movment come Thursday night, I might swing into the Apple store first thing in the morning.

Last year, ordering a 6s Plus for the upgrade program was easy and quick, this year it seems like no one knows what is going on.

This is actually good business practice.. They work so that they keep a very small amount of stock which takes up space and costs money to store...Learned that when I was getting my MBA

How do you get in touch with them? They screwed up my order at 3am est also and I had to reorder at 7am. If nothing I would like to contact them.... thanks in advance

email John Legere. i got in contact with them the other day and they unfortunately couldn't bump my order up after the two hour hold snafu but they did pay my phone bill for the month

Is his email just John.Legere@tmobile.com? My order was also botched TWICE, once at 12:01am PST and then again at 1:00am PST. My order didn't go through until 4:30am PST.

If you look at a lot of the ship dates for the other Pluses that have shipped, some 27s have gone out even before 19s. I'm gonna choose to stay cautiously optimistic lol

I used to have Blackmagic Pocket, I loved that camera.
Really like my A6300 now with EF Metabones adaptor.
Yea that pocket camera is awesome...The only thing about the BMPC4k is that it only shoots in 24 and 30 fps...So for my music video customers I couldn't shoot Slo Mo in 4k...So I needed to downgrade to a camera that could shoot 60 FPS in 1080 or 120 FPS in 1080. therefore I had to shoot in 4K and downcovert to 1080...looked great though.

What are we all going to do after we get our phones? We spend so much time checking for updates, and writing on here lol. First world problems...

Still want my Black 7+ 128GB ASAP.

On a side note, those who opted for the Black: did you originally want the jet black but heard about the scratching and finger prints? Honestly the jet black looks awesome, reminds me of the back on the black 3GS, but I sometimes go naked with it and didn't want to take a chance with the scratching
