Went online at 6am this morning. Managed to nab one for collection later today from Apple Birmingham. Anyone know if the extended holiday return period applies in the UK? On the Apple site it says purchases after 15 November have a return window until Jan 8th 2018 - but that page seems to come from the Apple US site, even though the link is on the UK site.

It’s the same

Items purchased at the Apple Online Store that are received between November 15, 2017 and December 25, 2017, may be returned through January 8, 2018. Please note that all other terms and conditions provided in the Apple Online Store Sales and Refunds Policy are still applicable with respect to such items purchased. All purchases made after December 25, 2017 are subject to the Standard Return Policy.


Same for the store.

Got one via IUP last week (Thursday) from Apple Regent Street and this is my return date on my receipt...

Changed from Preparing for dispatch to - shipped - due tomorrow. Any of you on 27-1st if you haven't had movement yet I'd expect something in the next day or so in terms of movement seems like a large shipment is happening if they're fulfilling both 24th and 27th orders!
 
My delivery window opens on the 28th so hopefully my order moves to preparing to despatch soon.

What was you’re delivery estimate?

Mine was 28th to the 5th December. So I’m wondering if I’ll see some movement soon.

Edit: I’ve just seen it. Mine hopefully is in the batch after yours then.

My SG is in the 28th-5th window too. My wife's silver which was in the 24th-1st has just shipped, so I'm hoping the SG gets a bump sooner.

Has anyone in the 28th-5th window seen any movement at all? Or a PFD?

I have 28th-5th but I don't see movement. It's still "order in process", I hope they will ship soon.
 
That's really good - to be able to try out the iPhone X over Christmas and return it if it doesn't suit. Wow.

I’d be wary to expect that holds for products bought instore, that link specifically says purchased at the Apple Online Store.

Mine is silver 256GB. I’m sure it won’t be much longer.
 
Any chance anyone could reserve a 256 SG in Belfast on iUP for me? It would be much appreciated!!
 
Do Apple Stores have any Xs available for walk in buyers? I’ve been checking the availability now the Glasgow store for a week or so with no luck.
 
Anyone actually received their iPhone x from Argos?
I ordered on 3rd Nov for delivery 4th Nov, cancelled when informed no stock.
Ordered again on 7th for delivery 8th, waited in all day, once again informed no stock cancelled again.
Received refund on both occasions.
Today received email "Good news! Your pre-order for Apple iPhone x has now been despatched for delivery on Saturday 18th December.Yodel are delivering for us and will send a message when once it's on their van. Thanks."
Do this company have any clue as to what they doing.Last Tim I checked 18 Dec was a Monday!!!
Okay the Argos saga continues, received iPhone this afternoon. God knows which order this is from,who knows maybe I will get another one in a couple of days.

You’d have to try and reserve one at 6am for collection that day.

I think it would show up as available for in store pick up if it is.

Are those only available for the IUP? Can you reserve and then buy outright? Having said that the 28th is just around the corner. I might as well wait for my online order...
 
Picked up my iPhone X this morning and I'm finding iOS an absolute mess after Android Oreo. The hardware is excellent, just not sure if I can cope with iOS! And before anyone says anything, I have had all the iPhones up to and including the iPhone 6.

From previous posts that seems to be the way people are getting them at present, 6am reservation and then paying in store.

Thanks. The wait time has now gone down to 1-2 weeks for both the 64GB and 256GB models. I don’t think it will be long before they are available for walk ins.

So much for those rumours of no stock until next year! Having to wait 1-2 weeks when ordering at the end of November is way beyond what most were expecting.

Production must be running at max output or they’ve overestimated sales
