anyone know if the TMobile phones are unlocked? I ordered a TMobile one but want to use with my Verizon SIM

The TMob phone shipped by Apple or sold @ retail Apple store is unlocked BUT... The TMob and ATT models will not work with VZW or Sprint. They don't have the CDMA modem. OTOH the VZW model is unlocked and works fine with either an TMob or ATT SIM.

So does next day air saver deliver on Saturday? I can’t get anyone on the phone at ups and it a 3 hour hold time.

Sadly they don’t. Monday-Friday only. You might be able to pay a little extra for a Saturday delivery though. You’d have to call UPS.

According to Apple Website, the T-Mobile phone will only work with T-Mobile and ATT

Went to the store to join the Apple IUP with T-Mobile and the store said they reached their quota to sale today and to go on app tomorrow at 8:00am and I could do it and pick it up tomorrow.

Received my preorder at exactly 2pm EST. This was the least drama filled T-Mobile preorder I have E V E R done and it’s crazy that it was for the mythical magical 10th anniversary iPhone. I remember being 20 years old in 2007 and waiting in line 12 hours for the OG iPhone. My how far we’ve come....

Got my 256 Silver at 4:52. Used the new easy transfer and iCloud backup. Love the phone so far. Does feel premium. Heavier than you'd expect, but in a good way. Looks great. Screen is amazing. Face ID just works. Right from the start. Only one app, Citibank, isn't ready for it for some bizarre reason, as Apple made it where if touchID works, Face ID will work. It is taking me time to get used to the new gestures/absence of the home button. Muscle memory is for real! LOL. It'll take a few days for it all to be second nature. Size of phone/size of screen is a great marriage. Should be a much more practical phone especially for guys who don't carry Murses, lol. So far looks like Apple has a winner.

Anyone know whether, if they aren't able to deliver the package on the day for whatever reason, we can pay extra to have the package delivered on Saturday (I know t-mobile does UPS Next Day Air Saver so...).

Still waiting here. I figure it will be awhile since 30% of SF probably ordered this phone...lol.

Same here, except I'm down in SoCal. Went out for delivery at 9am. UPS called me and said should be delivered 11am-3pm. It's about 4:50, and I need to head out in about an hour... :(

Ordered mine from T-Mobile on the 27th around 11am, signed EIP immediately, ship date range of 11/10-11/17 -- was hoping it would get bumped up or I could get the tracking number from UPS with my phone number as a reference but no luck yet. It's just weird to read about other people that ordered from T-Mobile after me and got earlier ship dates. Patiently waiting for the most part.
