Yesterday, I ordered an iPhone 7 Plus 32 GB in Black. When I ordered it was "In Stock" and then today my order changed to "Backordered"

Estimated shipping date: 12/05 to 12/12. Meh. I'm excited!

That's exactly the dates I got when I ordered last Sunday. And look, it's arriving on the 7th. You'll probably have it by the 12th, definitely before Christmas.

Have fun on your "vacation!" Please don't quote me on this, but you, unless something goes wrong, should have it by then. Keep us updated.

P.S. - feel free to PM me, I'd love to here about where you're coming from and what got you to the T-Mobile iPhone 7 Plus. (Hope that isn't creepy... sorry.)

Well I've owned an iPhone since the first one back in '07. Stayed with AT&T for years, then went to Verizon. A couple years ago when T-Mobile started doing their whole Uncarrier thing I switched the family over. I've got no complaints but my brother does because he won't upgrade his dang phone so he gets crappy signal. I get fantastic signal!

my first iPhone was a 4S from Sprint back in September '13 (one of the last 16GB models)… my first phone, period. then i upgraded to a 6 Plus in November 2014. i then returned the 6 Plus and got a Galaxy S5 (worst decision ever lmao). a few months later, i switched back to my 4S. in May 2016, i opened a new line and got a 64GB SE on-contract. then, in November 2016, we switched to T-Mobile, and I got my 7+ for almost half off ($869-$300-$127).

I ordered the same model last Sunday, it was expected to ship yesterday, but it actually shipped last week, and being delivered today.

I know that doesn't really help with your situation...

Turns out I jumped the gun. I did pay for next day shipping but it's stuck at "order processed, ready for UPS." It hasn't actually shipped, just scanned into the system.

I didn't realize that it could stay like that for at least 48 hours. Maybe if I'm lucky I'll get it by Friday ;)

My order stayed like that for two days, but it did move to that from backordered on Friday, so idk.

My experience is that the phone shippied before the estimated dates, and was delivered one day after it was estimated to ship.

When did you order yours and what model do you have

7 Plus Black 32 GB ordered on 12/4. It was delivered today! I love it, just can't wait for my case to come tomorrow because this phone is slippery as hell. I'm used to that though. This is my first iPhone with 3D Touch so I'm digging that feature. Also, I really love the new Haptics engine. Feels just like an my Apple Watch tapping you. The solid-state home button is weird and cool at the same time. It's hard to explain... physically I know it's not actually clicking but it really fools your brain. It just feels odd. I'll have to get used to it.

They must be pumping these out as fast as they can. Received my iPhone 7 Plus on 12/6 and according to the serial number, it was manufactured 11/28-12/4. Amazing.
