How did you get "express delivery"? I didn't get an option -- just came up as "standard delivery"? Are you in a country that is not the US?

maybe regional? im in US and was only option and said 'free' as well cost wise.

It's probably the 39g lighter body of 15Plus compared to 14PM, they thought it was aerodynamic enough to upgrade it to express status :p

I think you are wrong. Same delays for some as last year. East Coast usually see no action until 8:07. I would complain to your ISP who is likely the reason site changes did not propagate to you.
The ISP did not create the constant error messages on the iPhone app when trying to complete the pre-order. This was all on Apple and it isn't the first time, it also won't be the last.

UNBELIEVABLE! T-Mobile is still not letting me upgrade after spending 3 HOURS talking to their chat support

Waited at exact 5am. Apple Store app and website did not open until 5.06am, and even then, errors out when selecting options. Ordered 2 15PM natural Ti at AT&T instead coming 9/22. Checked on Apple Store again at 5.20am, now website finally works but delivery date for natural Ti moved to October.

Wow couldn’t get Apple Store app to load on my phone or laptop, after about 8 minutes I tried through a third party browser and it worked. Apple Store app kept giving me errors. Got a 22nd ship date. 🥸

Relatively easy ordering this year. Apple did screw up my pre-pre order, so I wound up ordering one phone through the app and one via the Apple web site on Safari.

Two iPhone 15 Pro Max. Both 1TB, one white, one blue. AT&T installment plan. Two different order numbers. First confirmed at 5:05 Pacific, second one at 5:14. Both state Sep 22 delivery.

So all in all, easier than in some years past but still not error-free.

And, the Pro Max initial allocation has already sold out. Delivery dates now pushed back into October.

Finally got my order placed at 7:22 AM central time for the 15 Pro, Natural, 128 GB unlocked. Still managed to get 09/22 delivery. App did not work on my iPhone or iPad. Finally ended up using my laptop. So, at the end of the day, the whole "get ready" and "pre-pre-order" were all nothing but a bunch of BS.
The only way i could get in was using my pre order...

WENT BACK TO THE APP STORE (why I don’t know) AND AFTER FINISHING TOUCHES AGAIN AT 5:35am PST…

I ordered my partner's iPhone 15 Pro 256 gb Blue Titanium and his total was higher than mine. His Initial Amount Due is $169.28. Mine is $154.54. The only difference is that I got AppleCare+ with Theft & Loss (PTSD from my phone getting stolen).

His other info:
Total Amount: 1,413.20
Total Financed via Citizens One: 1,298.00
Estimated Tax: 115.20
First Monthly Installment: 54.08
Total Amount Due: 169.28

My info
Total Amount: 1,465.54
Total Finance via Citizens One: 1,368.00
Estimated Tax: 97.54
First Monthly Installment: 57.00
Initial Amount Due: 154.54

Is it because I've been in the IUP for years and this is my partner's first year enrolling in the IUP? I don't understand why his total amount due is higher than mine. His loan amount is slightly lower than mine? Is it because of my AppleCare+ with Theft & Lost)? 🤔

Man that was a terrible experience. The Dang AS finally came online at 8:05est and kept failing on store times... 3 devices and all the same. In the end I got a Black and Titanium. Both with noon PU times. I have an Ultra already set for 8:30am so maybe I will get to PU early with the watch.

My preorder kept erroring out due to the trade-in portion - and I got stuck with Oct delivery. (Natural Titanium) Historically is there any chance this still gets delivered next week?
