Well, folks! I'm going to try to get some proper sleep tonight. I've been up since 04:00 AM and been running on 3-4 hours of sleep. Today was a very long day and I'm glad people were able to get what they wanted to order. Congratulations to those moving towards early shipment. 1 less bar to worry about. I hope by overnight we get moved towards "Preparing to Ship".

See the post below to see what's expected to happen in the upcoming days. May the force be with you🤞!!!

G'night!
 
So did Verizon really slip to October 1st or what’s going on? I ordered 4 different phones in the evening and they all said 9/24, but then my Sierra Blue Pro 512GB ended up being October 1st. Any chance it will still show up at launch? Or should I just go to the store?

So that means you’ll be back in 30 minutes, that picture is telling me I’ll be seeing the moon before I pick up my iPhone, very interesting 🤔😂

oh, post 🤦‍♂️😂 awesome picture by the way

Goodnight team SIERRA BLUE 💙
 
They are fun chatty group 💬 but it’s a mystery… what topics are they even discussing? What are they talking about. We need to assign a person who can go there and report it back to us. 🤪
This made me chuckle! Greetings from the UK! Haven’t been able to keep up with the thread but saw this as I was tagged in the post above it. Enjoy your new iPhones!
 
I actually refrained all day from "refresh abuse." 😆
"Preparing to ship"

I've seen this movie before though...it will sit in this status until late Wed. early Thurs....Then "Shipped".
This is when my madness begins.

....actually when I do find a UPS tracking number, (using "reference" around Mon, Tues?)...then I start the refresh every 20-30min abuse..LOL

What I do tend to look at every time at pre-order season is weather!
The weather in Alaska, East coast also.
I have a tracking # in My Choice already - yours should be appearing sometime today hopefully. If you have an account, you won’t even have to search and it shows up - at least for me it did.
 
My friend wanted to get the black/grey one but he overslept and couldn’t secure one for launch date so he’s getting the gold one. I don’t think it matters if you get a case anyway.
 
Damn, kinda wishing I got the blue now
Image is fake, it will look similar to it, love how people trash some colours before release, then say apple done a great job on all the colours once they see them in person, rinse and repeat every year. 😂

Colours look different on every photo out there, need to see them in person.

End of the day it'll most likely be in a case 70% of the time, so it doesn't really matter which colour you end up getting.

Unless it’s Graphite 😁
 
Am I doing something wrong with the reference code I’m doing reference code minus 2 digits and yes i made sure im reference code page
 
This is going to be the hardest thing… first time for me doing in-store pickup and I didn’t even think about the fact that I wouldn’t be able to track it! Waiting for all of the status changes, figuring out your tracking number, obsessing about why it hasn’t left China yet… that’s half the fun of the pre-order!! 😂😂
I know! I was just so excited when I saw the option to select in-store pickup that I immediately went for it 😂. I may not be able to track the shipment with everyone and will miss my seat mates, but I’ll still be around for the ride. :p
 
Are there any specific screen protectors that you use or would recommend? 🙂

Spigen or ESR both have their screen protectors available on Amazon. I ordered both this time. I love the Spigen screen protectors and have used the ones below for the past 2 years.
