Whoa, I just got an email from Apple my phone's been shipped it'll be here Thursday woohoo!!!
Now that is awesome because I can be home, Thursday.
And I don't know why Apple had originally said "via USPS" because it's actually UPS and I checked the tracking number and my phone just left China.

Now this is the kind of news I don't mind getting if I have to get up at 5:30 am on a Saturday, hehehe...

Nice! They probably switched up carriers to try to get iPhones to customers more quickly. Freighting product to the US and then transferring it to USPS would only lengthen the process.

My Jet Black 7 Plus (256 GB / Verizon - Ordered online from Apple) got bumped up from September 26 - October 3 time window to this Monday (09-19-2016) by end of end. Serial number for the device is now listed on my Apple profile. Last UPS scan has been Hong Kong for almost 24 hours now. I do know that local UPS facilities don't always scan packages like they should. OTOH, maybe they took the weekend off.

Ditto, my same configuration and order place as yours, only AT&T; is also in Hong Kong, scheduled for delivery Monday.

My 256GB Jet Black 7 Plus will be here Tuesday. Ordered from Verizon on 9/9 at 3:05 AM. My CC was charged last night. No update on Verizon's site yet, but I was able to track it by FedEx reference number. It's in Memphis Tennessee on its way to NC.

Ordered 7Plus matte black, 128GB on 9/9 at around 8:30am EST. Order status today has changed to preparing for shipment and credit card has charge pending. Delivery date was 2-3 weeks, October 4-10 and that has not changed. I predict an earlier arrival.

It's not Jet Black is it? People with every other colour seem to be reporting earlier delivery times, while I've yet to see a Jet Black delivery time get bumped up.

I pre-ordered a Jet Black iPhone 7 Plus 256GB model and my delivery time got bumped up. It was originally scheduled for Sept. 26-Oct. 3, but got bumped up to Sept. 21 on the Apple Store app, but when I tracked the shipment, it says it'll be delivered on the 19th (in two more days).

0700 this morning I was notified my iPhone 7+ 256GB Matte Black AT&T was shipped and I received my tracking number and status change to "shipped". Delivery date 21 September. Original dates 23-27 September. Coincidentally, my Apple Watch Series 2 will arrive the same day. Both new devices now appear in my Apple Support profile. It took 48 hours from CC charge and "Preparing for Shipment" to achieve actual shipment.

Hoping to get it sooner than that as I am using a temp phone now since I returned note 7 with the recall.

Did you use order number or phone number to track via Fedex?
