Mine has been out for delivery since 9am. Heard a big truck pull up. It was Fedex to deliver another package. Ding dang y’all.
[doublepost=1509717199][/doublepost]A little off topic but I’m going to use iCloud for first time to transfer data to the new phone. Anyone here done that before vs backup on computer?
im using icloud also... i normally do clean install every year but will go the icloud route this time around... i hope my pics transfer over.

Does ups say out for Delivery? Mine just says it’s loaded on delivery vehicle. It’s 9 AM already...

I prefer to use iTunes because it is much faster. If you have an apple watch or any health data you want to keep, make sure you choose the option to encrypt it if you do it through iTunes.

Mine says the same thing. In the past it has said "Out for Delivery" but today it isn't.

Yeah my laptop ran out of space for backups and I don’t want to buy another one. Really don’t need one with the iPad Pro. So I guess I’ll see how the iCloud transfer works.

I’m wondering if it’ll transfer all the apps over.

It transfers everything over from what I've seen in my experience. I almost always restore from an iCloud backup.

Good morning all. Final launch day results for me here:
Silver 256 and Space Grey 256 ordered around 7:30 AM PST on 10/27.
:)Silver 256: CC charge on 10/31, then shipped later that day and Out for delivery today. Lucky wife!
:(Space Grey 256: still no CC charge, T-Mo status is still 11/3-10. Looks like the chances of getting this today are <1%. That number appears a little high actually.

For fun, I'll also note that the same two models I ordered on Apple.com (store app wasn't working) at around 12:15 PST on 10/27 are still estimated to ship at 11/17-24. I'll be cancelling those in due course, but lesson learned!

I ordered mine 10/28/17 (Sat) around 8:30 am - Silver 64g and used the Jump program through the app. Fixing to go pick it up as it is ready.

do you have to swipe up? will it unlock and go straight to home screen?
You have to swipe up. The UI has a padlock that appears on the lock screen. It’s locked at first and swings unlocked once Face ID is confirmed. Then you swipe up. Or you can swipe up immediately and enter your PIN.

Brain fart time. Is it best to transfer your old SIM card to the new phone? Or have them activate the new SIM card.

so i didn’t turn the screen on yet (waiting to get home) however it definitely seems smaller than the plus, but that’s with the screen off.

Just picked mine up!! iPhone X day
Currently upgrading to 11.1 so I can restore my iPhone 7 backup. Feels premium in the hand. Almost like how the old iPods used to feel. So far so good!
hiw did you get 11.1 it won’t seem to download for me after I input the beta profile on X

The space grey/black looks so ugly in comparison to the silver. Its dull looking and gets fingerprints so easily. Glad I went with the silver.
