It seems like this preorder has a lot less enthusiasm and chatter compared to the last two iPhone releases. Hoping for a smooth experience tonight *fingers crossed*

iPhone X effect.

This thread will be much busier come Oct. 27, I'd imagine.

Perhaps too many people already scheduled for that time slot. I used the app at like 10am this morning and scheduled for 2am CT
Good thinking! Probably right! I did it this morning as well

I set it up for 11:45 so I will find questions to keep the rep busy until it hits midnight It was either that or 12:15 and I don't wanna miss my shot lol
I heard stories that they will not wait for 15 mins of their time for pre orders but I wish you the best and might get a nice person :)

8 plus! Just a short term JOD until the X comes out though. I need the storage upgrade...32gb is tight.

Edit: Gold, as well. Saving the space grey option for the X.

Same here. Using one jump for the 8+ then in a few months I will jump again to the X

I'm newbie to T-Mobile JOD, is it like leasing a car except you can upgrade several times during the term? Wile EIP is like financing a car? I know in general JOD monthly payment is a bit more than EIP on the same phone. Now with the upgrade plan got thrown in on the iPhone 8 EIP, you can switch to a new phone after half of the payments paid, why even choose JOD over EIP?

How's JOD compare to EIP, any pros and cons comparing the two?

Haha! Funny how the same people always end up in the same thread

Yup, hoping to see some more familiar names. Do you know if there's like an IRC or discord link this time around? I remember there was something like that last time.

I don't know if it was from here. There was a chatroom last time where everyone waiting to pre-order was just hanging out til pre-orders went live.
Ohhhhh yeah I didn't preorder online last year. We went in the store in the morning around 9 am and still had to wait 31 days. I really hope wait times aren't that long this time around

Oh damn. Yeah if you do end up doing it online/over the phone this time around, you should get it on launch day. Had no trouble last year with the delivery.
