Wow, that's a quick turnaround.

What color, size and provider?

Silver, 32gb with AT&T.
I thought silver was space grey, I didn't know this last one was the black and grey, was confused for a second hehe I answered Mr Rizk saying space grey when indeed it was the silver. Weird way of describing the colors Apple!

It's official I got my iPhone! I've been checking store stocks and I saw 64gb gold show up. So I went a head canceled my order with apple and then placed a new order for in store pick up. I knew I was taking a risk but I decided to chance it and pray that the in store didn't glitch on me like I've been told it has done for others. Once I saw that my order was successfully placed I canceled my 2nd order and did the same.

1st order placed at 6:55 pm
2nd order placed at 7:29 pm
Both ready for pick up at 7:56 pm
In my hands at 8:51 pm

I was so excited that I made my mom drive cuz I wasn't fit to.

😍

I just went to my local Best Buy and found one in stock. I got the iPhone 5S Gold 16GB for AT&T! I had a order with apple to deliver in November but i Cancelled it and got the gold at Best Buy. Apple also gave me a free $150 gift card because of the wait to get the 5S but I got that free too! I got really lucky!

We are officially in the 64GB gold club!! :party:

Will save the rest of you the ridiculous details of trying to get a phone earlier than my expected ship date for the past week. BUT after many back and forth phone calls with Apple and AT&T, stalking the availability checker app at update times and surviving computer glitch at Apple retail store calling me to cancel my already approved in store pickup order, I finally landed one today!! Cancelled my online order as well, updated eligibility (5 minute process total) and voila! the phone was still available in my closest store. Picked it just before store closing and staff started clapping for GOLD 64GB "score"...lmao

Immediately fell in love :heart:

As u r getting it from usa. Don't there is duty levy on phone in ur country's custom? If it is there then it might be more costlier.

Yeeeeees! Still 2 days! 2! Can't wait! And the more minutes that pass, the more minutes I'm all over the place. Like I said in other thread, I just moved from Sprint to At&t, bought the HTC One liked it at first but felt empty with it, returned it and ordered the 5s. I come from the old nokias directly to the Android world and some BB's. Never looked at the iPhones but I need something reliable and I'm tired of buggy Androids that last 2 months and they get old or boring BB world. So bottom line is that I've been rolling with an Alcatel gold phone since Monday and that makes me even more impatient! I'm excited, impatient, crazy... Call it whatever you want. First iPhone and I believe It wont let down. I feel I would never look back to other products other than Apple :)

Excited for you! ;) Just my humble opinion, but I don't think you will be disappointed...been getting familiar with mine and it whizzes between apps and pic quality improvement is definitely noticeable..coming from an iPhone 4, it's quite an upgrade...been an iPhone owner since they were released (though not all versions) and have been happy...own all Apple products so the ease of compatibility and use is an extra...keep us posted :thinking:

This will be my first iPhone as well. Have contemplated the move ever since I got my first Macbook a few years ago, but never pulled the trigger until now. I like Android, but I love my Macbook and have loved the iPhones I've played with. Very excited!

Too bad my order is still processing. :(
