Hoping for some activity tonight or tomorrow. Ordered a 12 Pro 128 Pacific Blue with JOD at 9:35a eastern. No charges or shipping yet.
If you have it held at the hub where your packages are loaded on the truck for delivery, you can pick it up as soon as they open for business.
Got charged earlier, and UPS my Choice just updated with shipping. Time to check on which plane its on, and geek out on flightaware.
I have. Nothing is scheduled. I usually don’t see anything in there until the day before, though. I also could have sworn that the last time I upgraded, way back when the 6s Plus came out, it was shipped via FedEx.
Has anyone that ordered from T-Mobile had any movement with their package or is it just sitting and waiting for UPS to pick it up?
Just shows "order processed.." Looking at the flight manifest, there is another flight leaving Incheon in 13 hours, Im guessing they will be on that flight.
Just chatted with a rep. They are saying there should be activity starting tomorrow and anyone that has a date 10/23 will get it on that day.
For those new to the game, the Flight Aware system referenced can be seen here: https://flightaware.com/live/iphone
The planes noted leave China loaded down with iPhones, and take a nice hop up to Anchorage Alaska to refuel, before heading down to Louisville, KY where they will all sit (yes, even those who have delivery dates noted! You're not getting left out if you have tracking but no delivery day---or honestly even if you don't have tracking just yet). They'll stay down there until they go out overnight from Louisville to your homes and businesses to be delivered on Friday. It is NOT unusual to have no charge, tracking information, or status change in T-Mobile's order status or My T-Mobile systems and STILL get your phone on launch day. Both the unexpected joy of an unexpected delivery turned disappointment when the phones don't actually arrive until Friday, and the converse sadness turned to joy when they appear they aren't going to make it and then they do are about to wash over all of us. It happens every year!
Wow I got a gold 128gb and won’t see it until November 10th thru 16.
Edit: ordered on launch day.
I probably won’t see it until sometime in November as well. It said scheduled to ship by that date. Meaning it may ship from tmobile on Friday or Monday and take about a week to get to me.
You ordered from Apple? Mine is thru Tmo. Still order processed, no movement yet. Keep us updated!
I am reading on other websites that T-Mobile phones are shipping
That’d be cool. Got tracking for both, and I’ve received non-launch phones when it still says order processing when I went to bed, but got there the next day. Ya never know, it is 2020!
I doubt T-Mobile wants to get slapped on the wrist again. They pulled a similar thing in 2014 with the iPhone 6 and Apple was FURIOUS.
I’m not holding my breath. I expect them Friday.
I mean bottom line is unless you’re past November 2, I think we can all expect our phones on launch day... but it’s fun to see the process and trace the little details.
My estimated ship date on my order was 11/3-11/9. I’m not a T-mobile customer yet so I don’t have anything to check other than that.
What made you pick after November 2 exactly?
