Very rare date, also in this one. Was told it was the generic catch all for the backorder date on the jet black by executive response. But I haven't seen any movement yet some with order times and numbers that were after me in sequence have received their phones of the same configurations.


I ordered 9/9 at 7am PST a 7plus 128gb matte black -- delivery date is also 9/27 - 10/10 -- they messed up on my email address so I didn't get the eip agreement until the 12th when I called back in (which I wasn't stressing off of because they said there would be a delay in sending it out because of how busy they were and it didn't affect where you were in line) ... Not so sure I believe that either?

In any case, my order still shows processing, my card hasn't been charged & I'm just patiently waiting.:(:mad:

Restoring from an iCloud backup, and can hear the little hissing... and by "hissing" I mean the softest "white noise" hum ever. It's like a MacBook Pro fan, set to .0002. I have to put the back of the phone literally ON my ear to hear it, but it is there. I guess it's more noticeable than previous phones, although to be honest, I've never checked (only doing this because of all of the mentions of a 'hissgate'). I'll keep an eye/ear out for it getting worse/more pronounced as I accumulate heavy usage and benchmarks.

For everyone worried about it - granted, some may be worse (or people more sensitive) than others - I'd say it's pretty much a non-issue; definitely not a showstopper. If Apple acknowledges an issue and is going to replace them, then go for it.

Same boat here
 
For those who have had their phones shipped, how much did the phone weigh and what model did you order? 2.4 lbs for 2 7+s is a little suspicious to me.

Yea, turns out it was false alarm on my part with video record test. I recorded the same video (15 secs in a very quite room) with iphone 6 under no load prior to recording and 7 plus under heavy load and the video (sound) came out exactly same. I could even hear the clock on my wall ticking. The noise that I initially thought was hissing actually turned out to be just white noise in the video that my iPhone 6 produces too.

So I guess, it's just the slight noise that you hear when you keep your ear literally on the Apple logo on the back. I will keep an eye out for this but like I said earlier, nothing that is urgent. But I might still get it replaced eventually once Apple officially announces they have fixed it.

Let me just say that this thread is so addicting. Assuming that the shipments aren't going to improve, this will get me through the next month of waiting impatiently.

I ordered late so I'll be checking this thread out until mine is in my hands. This will definitely give me something to read when I have the time.

Sounds right. I had 2.2 lbs and I ordered 7 and 7+

When I sent my 5s back for the 6s+ last year, it took several weeks for the status of my return to change. I didn't need a credit since the 5s was already paid off.
This is why it's better if you take your phone in to your local store so then it's on them
