Heads up to those that traded in a device for the $650 promo... I called V with the intention to cancel because they were going to drop the promo if I upgraded. They escalated my concern and gave me the remainder promo as a large credit. Might be worth checking into if you are in the same boat.
I have 3 phones on this, wonder how it would work.

They told me that it all going to stay, on a recorded call. It didn't. They told me otherwise so I demanded they listen to the recorded call and they provided the credit.
Yup unless you are locked into the 24 month $650 credit promo like a few of my lines are. If it weren't for that I would upgrade those as well
 
I’m upgrading from an iPhone 6 Plus, will. Notice much of a difference with the iPhone 8 plus?

I'm on a 6 plus and getting the 8 Plus. You should see considerable difference in speed, touch ID, camera, and screen quality. With the 1gb of RAM mine has been slow, lots of lag and freezing up. The 8 Plus will run at blazing speeds. We also get force touch.
 
LOL... It's just a phone.

It's like Christmas though. I don't get myself nice stuff very often. I'm also going from a 16GB 6s to a 64GB 8. That's a big jump. This is pretty much the only nice thing I get myself ever.

It makes me nervous how they're holding it in Tennessee and them I'm guessing overnighting it to me in Kansas. I don't know why they wouldn't send them to closer warehouses to make it easier? Unless this is somehow easier.

They do it this way every single year.

As I stated earlier in the thread that hasn't always been the case with the ones I've ordered. I remember one pre order it was actually fairly close to me for at least a couple of days before release date. I apologize for not being more in the know as I haven't been able to get the new ones through pre order for a little bit.
 
Anyone still have an order stuck on "Expected ship date 9/22"?

A 64gb Gold 8 "shipped" 9/18 and just left Memphis this afternoon.

A 256gb Space Gray 8 is still stuck on the expected ship 9/22 status.

Both showed 9/22 availability when ordered.

That’s exactly how I feel. I’m always too excited to fall asleep early the night before my new iphone is due to arrive. Yeah, it’s “just a phone,” but what’s the harm in getting a little giddy over something every now and then? :)
 
At Apple's Request, mine has been taking up shelf-space in Jersey since Tuesday. I'd be willing to take it off their hands a day early :)

Staying home tomorrow to set it up! Stoked.

I have the exact same tracking but now it's back in Coatesville. It's a mystery...

We have to keep a bit of perspective here. When someone is participating on a forum about Apple and making fun of us who are excited about a new Apple device, don't worry. There's someone out in the world making fun of them for even belonging to a forum about Apple.

No matter how stupid we look to someone, they look stupid to someone else. It's a part of life.

I'm stoked for a new iPhone just like I was getting all of my Apple products over the years or when the car I ordered arrived at the dealership and I was tracking the shipping container from Germany for 4 weeks or rushing home to play a new video game I pre-order months ago.

It's okay to get excited about things and I'm happy we all have threads like this to share our excitement with others.

..is the iPhone more exciting than my kid being born? Hell no, let's have some perspective here. I can still be stoked off my butt!!!!!
 
Called Fedex there gonna deliver before 12 and I have my new AW3 non LTE ready for pickup at best buy. Next year I want to do in-store pickup that's for sure!

Feels good to be back went to Galaxy / Galaxy Gear in April and it's not the same. I have an entire Apple ecosystem and I can't remove one of the most important parts!
