Did everyone who snuck their preorder midday on the 26th get their confirmation? That’s still the wildest part of this launch. Like crazy that the system would let that happen. And then that it would let it happen again at 11:50 pm so I could put my order in!! Wild.

But curious if everything ended up good with that.
Hell, I got my order in at 2:19 p.m. on the 26th. A bunch of us did. There was a brief window that the app let us order.

those look good too, i read a while back on front page of MR they talked about the anker one, the one concern i have is some of these require you to buy the wall outlet for them to work, unless of course idk what im doing lol

the one I got came with the plug and cable.

Tricky Activation Question:

Bought from Verizon, however not going to use Verizon as service here in the US, instead, I will be using ATT. Also, more importantly, I will be using the phone all over the world later this year.

Do I still need to activate with Verizon during 1st boot in order to make sure the phone will permanently be UNLOCKED?

or forget about everything, just pop in the ATT SIM during the 1st boot and toss the Verizon SIM for good?
 
People with 11/3 delivery but still no charge/shipping what state are you in?

NJ

Location D239301 on my order number of that helps

EDIT: When I call 611, there's a welcome message that says "... you're order is PENDING TO SHIP"

App says "PENDING"

Website Order Tracking says "PROCESSING"

I know a bunch of you guys snuck in there. Glad everything worked out. I guess that’s why we randomly check ‘just in case’. I missed it by mere moments. Once I got to the order confirmation page, the confirm button had been grayed out. But it was for sure a page I hadn’t gotten to in my previous attempts and couldn’t replicate it after.

Glad it worked out... hopefully for everyone else.

Thanks man. Yeah, all of us are in touch and everyone is good. All receiving the phone on Friday.
 
Does the Verizon iPhone X come with a SIM, and if so, is it different from previous iPhone models? Also, can an activation fee be avoided by using an existing device SIM, or is activation based on device instead of SIM?

Yes, it comes with a SIM. No, it is no different. Verizon is supposed to be waiving activation fees. Seems like you have to get in touch with a CSR from Verizon and they will credit your account $30.

Yes the X will come with a SIM installed. Your old phone and SIM will be deactivated once you turn on and activate the X.
 
Very interesting that the expected delivery dates on Verizon's site STILL say December 1st for the base models. I figured they would be later by now.

Some of us who caught the midday have been talking with each other. All of us have been charged and shipped with arrival date 11/3/17. It worked out and the orders were not cancelled. Kudos to Verizon for their integrity in honoring the orders. I bet next year at the launch of the so-called iPhone X Plus everybody on this forum is going to be checking throughout the day before launch!

Same thing happened to me. I was almost done then it grayed out. Still got the order in before midnight though! On the confirmation screen, it said delivery by 11/03 but I didn't get the email until 7:52am and it said delivery 12/01, so I was nervous all weekend. Worked out fine though, my package is waiting in Memphis and hopefully I will see some movement on Thursday. Good luck everyone!

Anyone else still hasn't received shipment yet? Mine still says processing, but will deliver 11/3.
 
Ordered around 2:57
Charged. Shipped. And sitting at FedEx facility in TN for scheduled Friday delivery

What state are you from? Mine is currently sitting "at local fedex facility" in NJ. I am a little confused because I thought "at local fedex facility" meant that it is somewhere near me(I live in Michigan).
