Fed Ex was suppose to deliver my X by 8pm local time. I called and it never even made it into town. Least they could have done was email me about the delay. Wasted my day sitting at home

Wow sorry to hear you didn’t get your iPhone X on time. I’d be livid.

You are not alone. Mine is in Memphis since Sunday. Total waste.
 
So I went to run some errands and took it obviously... idk I have some settings to change, I know that. But I hope I get used to it. I love the look and feel, I’m just soooo used to the other! For example, if I use raise to wake, my phone will die in no time because just moving it will wake it. So I now have to use the lock button to wake the phone. So I have to hold it weird. It’s definitely an adjustment!

I take it back. Just push the screen to wake it! Holy crap! Lol!
 
This phone is a beast!!! So in love with it ❤️ Charger is great, design and UI is great. Already getting used to the new gestures and button presses but still stumble with seeking the home button every now and then. Loving the portrait mode on the front camera and Face ID is a cinch to set up and use. Gonna set up Apple Pay later and give it a try while out and about. Really can’t wait for the Apple Pay Cash to be released.

Anywho, these are my pics as promised. Used the Speck case but placed two orders for custom cases from Skinit tonight. Can’t wait for them to arrive :)

I bought the space grey and bought my wife the silver. After seeing both side by side, I wish I had chosen the silver. Looks really nice!
You are correct :) silver is the outstanding color. Space gray color is a common cell phone color and there is nothing special in it. Your wife must love it.

Tap the screen it will come on too
 
For all who still have to wait receiving your order and are still able or allowed to cancel it, you can purchase online in Apple store apps and choose store pick up. I just did this for my other line for today pick up. This is subject to the store supply availablity. Good luck!!

Update: Stocks are depleting very quick after my announcement in Apple stores in my area. Amazing :)

Going to go pick my iPhone X up in a few hours. I wasn’t home when FedEx came so I have to grab the door tag, head to the FedEx holding/storage facility in town and pick it up. So stoked!!!

Just checking in with you to see if your phone is still sitting in Memphis? I called fedex yesterday and they said it couldn’t leave their facility because of a thunderstorm... so they told me they would try to make my package top priority and get it to me today
 
Looks like my phone was put on a wrong flight yesterday, I’m guessing. Usually it goes from Memphis to Fargo to Bismarck. Yesterday it went from Memphis to Minot to Fargo. I had guaranteed delivery for last night by 8pm. Now it just says Pending.

Somebody at FedEx screwed up. If I don’t see it “out for delivery” on Monday, there will be some unfriendly phone calls made. Usually I don’t get upset if a mistake like this is made but this is a $1200 iPhone that I’m on the hook for paying.

Glad to see a lot of people are enjoying their iPhones!
 
Not going to lie I was worried last night because all my apps looked terrible but when I woke up this morning most have them have updated! Up until now I was really missing my iPhone 7+ but I feel much better now.

Same here! When I got that charge on Wednesday night despite my 11/15 ship date, I went to the Verizon store the next morning and picked up two cases (still intend to make as custom Sailor Moon themed case on Skinit), a zagg screen protector, wireless charger and the USB-C to lightning cable and 29W USB-C charger in preparation for today! Totally worth it and so happy that I was able to just put all the accessories on the bill since it was an abrupt expense >.<
Yes it so cool they let you put the accessories on your bill when igot the charge Wednesday i didn’t think nothing of it then i got the email didn’t want to pay for expensive accessories so I’m waiting on amazon as we speak

I placed my order on 10/30 after chatting with Verizon online and they explicitly said there would be no phones delivered to the store before all pre-orders were shipped and that I should just order online. Reading that people in NYC have walked in and gotten their phones early really bothers me because they basically lied. I even went to see the delivery time frame today for the exact same as phone pre-ordered and it gives an estimate of 12/6 whereas my oder is set for 12/13. Here's to hoping they update the delivery date to late November. Tbh, I think I'll be able to buy it as a walk in by then.

Update:

Something made me go check the apple website for in-store pickup and shipping times. Turns out there was stock for the 256 SG available at 3 apple stores. After a bunch of back and forth with Verizon online I tried to add a line with a cheap phone then replacing the phone immediately with the in-store pickup option from apple.com (which didn’t work becuase it’s the weekend so Verizon couldn’t supply a phone number until Monday). I went ahead and canceled my online order with Verizon (which had a 12/13 ship date) and went to apple.com which had an estimate ship time of 3-4 weeks and was still available for in-store pickup today. By the time the order was canceled on Verizon’s end the onlystore with exact phone I wanted was in Yonkers, which is like 3 hours away via transit, so I’m just going to take a cab up there after class today. I’m so excited, hopefully they don’t mistakingly sell my order or something.
 
Got a call from my local Verizon Store that they had a 64gb X available, this was at about 7:30 p.m. last night. I'll have to check this morning if it's still available.
 
I have a 2015 Yukon and would like a case that would allow me to use the wireless charging pad in my vehicle for iPhone X. Any recommendations?
 
FedEx called and said I won’t get my phone today either.. what a surprise. Scheduled delivery for Monday, so let’s see if that happens. I don’t have the option of picking it up at the fedex facility either because my local sort facility is 2 1/2 hours away.. yes that’s local haha. I guess it’s better late than never.
 
Love love love my X. Any good cheap(er) wireless chargers for an SUV, more specifically, a 4Runner?
