I didn't bother preordering, instead I casually walked into the apple store with no appointment this afternoon and found they had the exact phone I was looking for, unlocked XS Max space grey 256, walked out with it as easily as ever. Didnt need to worry about delivery or anything
 
I wish it would leave this step!

Happy for you that you got it in hand, but anticipation is half the fun. Waiting for it, talking with others on the same boat about it is pretty kickass. Just getting it and walking out seems so dull.


EDIT:

Delivery date updated on Apple store as well

I was there until last night and then...

Now have been waiting almost a whole day for it to leave China.

I’m traveling next week, so I’m counting on the projected delivery date and having them hold it in Louisville so I can pick it up when I fly there Tuesday.

My phone finally left the customs stage. My daughter’s is still stuck in it even her phone shipped a day earlier than mine
 
Mine also changed to 5:37 departure time and changed back to Monday delivery.

Thankfully, it is the weekend. I will have too much to do to think about it.
 
My phone is still stuck at customs in Shenzhen, hoping to see some movement tonight. It has been sitting there for a couple days. My Apple delivery changed from Tuesday 25 to Monday 24th tough.
 
Just noticed apple updated my order to a Tuesday delivery! still no departure from China

Apple updated to show Monday delivery, but my previous ups that showed a Monday delivery now shows Tuesday :/. Phone currently in Anchorage.

That Anchorage scan (which I have as well) is a little odd because they show the local time of the scan. Tracking reflects it was scanned at 6:39 PM Alaska time. That's over an hour from now.

Mine and my wife phones are traveling together. I got my order in 1 minute sooner than she did, her's says Monday, mine says Tuesday. Both in Alaska currently. I am thinking Monday for both.

Mine is saying the same, shows Monday but in details it says rescheduled for Wednesday. Who knows.

Same for me this evening.
 
I’m REALLY confused as to what flight our phones were on that landed in anchorage? And when they will be going to Louisville...
