I ordered the iPhone 7 plus 128gb black from T-Mobile and the estimated ship date is November 1, 2016 - November 30, 2016.
I just got an email from T-mobile thinking they finally shipped my order, instead it's an email for a bill. I just switched to T-mobile and have yet to even activate the SIM card. Crazy.
Well my Apple Watch Series 2 and a hoodie I've been waiting for since forever both arrive on Wednesday so maybe I'll get the iPhone on that day too.
Honestly I don't even care about not getting the phone on launch day and I certainly don't mind waiting a bit longer to get what I want. What frustrates me is the lack of communication from T-Mobile, the lackluster ordering process online (and over the phone), the misinformed reps and so on. The whole thing just comes across like it's been badly planned... and you would think T-Mobile has learnt from past iPhone launches. Nope. This year was worse than the 6 and 6s launches. I suspect many people feel the same way.
EDIT: And it's even more of a terrible situation if T-Mobile ens up saying Apple isn't being transparent on when iPhones are getting shipped out or whatever. So many iPhone releases from Apple you would think they'd have improved how they handle device distribution to carriers.

My watch arrives Wednesday too, would definitely be awesome to get both on the same day, currently have a Note 7 so the apple watch will be relatively useless until I get my iPhone
Thats if you order it now...we should have our phones next week otherwise i have a really nice compensation coming my way from tmobile if its not delivered by then...might wanna take advantage and see if u can get apple care +
Yup, Reps must just be looking at the chart on the T-Mobile website and just guessing that all pre-orders will not ship until those dates. (of course on the off-chance they're not lying i'd be furious)
Sitting here with a 9/19-9/26 ship date for the 7+ 128GB matte black. I've literally seen nobody who has had any progress with this model. And to be honest, I don't expect it within the timeframe. If it doesn't come Wednesday, I might just switch colors and JOD later.
my jet black order from the 9/9 said shipping estimate 11/01 -11/30. Decided it wasn't worth the hassle, so canceled for a normal black 256GB shipping 10/03 - 10/17, If it turns it would have shipped next week, bummer. Just saw the Matte in the store today, much better than the pictures.
Just so everybody knows the 1st of the week is Sunday, check your calendars
That means tonight at 12am is next week, so I look forward to some change in my status.
Agreed. I when to the store today and the Matte black looks way better than on pics.
Seriously.... come on on T-Mobile.... TAKE MY MONEY AND CHARGE ME for my IPHONE 7 PLUS 256GB...... Tired of waiting.......
iPhone 7 Plus - Matte Black - 32GB
Original ship date of October 11 now moved to Overnight Shipping today for early next week.

Man I just cancelled the pre order for the jet black (well I'm giving it to my brother) and just going for the silver. Screw it. plus it'll be a different since I never owned a white iPhone.
I honestly believe that the 9/27-10/10 people will be in the first round of shipments with the 9/19-9/26 people. I preordered my 128GB matte black 7+ at 7am EST and got the 9/27-10/10 timeframe. Find it hard to believe that the first round of that model would've sold out in that timeframe. So I'm holding out hope for early next week! God willing our phones are on the planes tonight
I'm praying for this too. It seems like NO ONE has a silver 7+, yet I was still quoted 9/27 -> 10/10 and I ordered earlyish on 9/9. I'm hoping they ship it this week, silver is not even a popular color I'm not sure how it could be so sold out.
that be nice as mine shows the same. I have a est date of 10/10-10/24 tho.
I got a text from T-Mobile thinking the ship date moved ahead, but it didn't. lol

Other people in here from mid october have been charged for the matte black 128gb plus. no one has been charged for the 256GB
I have owned black, white, space gray and silver (in that order) in the past. Good thing about white/silver is you won't notice small scratches and scuffs.
