What gb size if it was to be 256gb you would still be out of luck.
This is just going to be another pre-order waiting game we will eventually get our phones.
Hopefully, I'll get mine first before you guys
Grrrr, for excited because I got a text from T-Mobile... All it told me was my wife's was delivered yesterday.
Nothing for me, still says "processing". Matte Black 128gb. ship dates 9-19/9-26
T-Mobile: We have received your information and will connect you with a T-Mobile Chat Specialist soon.

They just told me that all iPhone 7 plus will start shipping early November.
It doesn't matter what my estimated shipping date says on their site.
Question for all you seasoned T-Mobile experts: we just switched from AT&T. My company has negotiated 15% discounts with all the carriers including T-Mobile. Several of my coworkers have the discount on their simple choice Plans. I asked a CS rep how to set this up when our accounts become active and I was told no discounts could applied to the new plans. Is this true or is this normal CS misinformation? If I push this issue to a manager will it go anywhere? Anyone have any experience with this at all? Thanks in advance.
Yeah I just spoke to them too. They told me they have to wait for Tim Cook to personally bless each individual iPhone before shipment.
Looking at December delivery.
So frustrated now
Online my order show September 19th-26th. I am chatting now with T-Mobile Help online and now this:
"Shipping time frames for all colors and memory sizes can also be found here explore.t-mobile.com/shipping-dates. I'm showing your device should ship between 11/1 to 11/30. I realize this may be disheartening to learn that you'll have to wait even longer. I apologize for any discrepancy in the shipping time line. I show you were told differently earlier. There has been an overwhelming demand for the most of the Plus models, in fact the stores are not even carrying them at this time. I see that you did pre-order at the earliest possible opportunity on 9/9, however, inventory on that model is just insufficient at this time. I would imagine you'll be one of the first to get it within that time frame since you pre-ordered very early, so hopefully beginning of November. Wish there was more we could do on this. You can check the link above periodically to see if time frames have changed, but as of today we're looking at November. Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns. We're here for you 24/7"
Me:
This is so frustrating. If I cancel the order and change the color for a matte black will that help me to get it faster?
T-Mobile Help:
"I get where you're coming from, really do. Hopefully we can get Apple to forecast better in future on inventory coming to us. The Matte Black actually does have a shorter wait. Shipping time frame is 10/3 to 10/17. You are able to cancel the order and have one re-issued for the Matte Black. Would you like to proceed with this change"
Oh, well. First year with T-Mobile but I suppose this is an Apple issue, not T-Mobile.

I actually went this route. Had previously ordered a plus 32gb in matte black and my estimated ship was in November. Canceled that order and went with 128gb plus in matte. My estimated ship now is early Oct. Hope that holds up or I hope it gets delivered early.
If you were a new customer that ordered on Wednesday you'd already have your phone!
</sarcasm>
Maybe misinformation.. I have a discount on my SC plan..

My buddy had a reservation with Apple regarding his upgrade plan today, and ended up walking out with a black 7+ 256gb. He didn't even try to pre-order or anything.
I'm still waiting to get my black 7+ 128gb that I "pre-ordered." I was one of those people that called at 12:01 just to have my order cancel itself out...

My 9/19-9/26 is already shipped it's a black 32gb plus
I was told that Johny Ive will dress as Santa and personally deliver our "Aluminium" iPhones.
Personally I think that T-Mobile is full of S**t when they say we will be getting our phones on the estimated dates because on their website it says we won't even get them till November soooo all the 256 gig people like me can expect to be screwed till November -_-

Also my black 32 plus that shipped is arriving on Monday!
That's the same one I have ordered.
These reps telling everyone that their order is delayed by a month and a half don't make any sense. 3-4 days ago they were telling me I will get it on launch day.
It's pointless calling them.
Yeah, gotta agree. Not trying to harsh any JB mellow here....but when I first saw the JB's, it was instant "holy mother mary of christopher!" that is gorgeous. Then, reality set in. Smudges. Scratches. Protection needed from minute one, which would defeat the purpose of the glossy glory to begin with etc.
Can't wait for matte bliss
