iPhone 7 Plus Only --- Pre-Order thread

[violetjune]

Everyone should check out the apple upgrade program ..Last night at 12:01 am I went on the apple reserve website and saw at my Apple Store a Verizon 7 plus JB 256 available ... Unbelievable!! I wish I was wanting to upgrade..

Just ordered 2 128 gig iPhone 7 Plus's last night. Shipping time is saying 3 weeks. Hopefully that drops some.

How long to preorders take to get fullfilled? Are people waiting till the expected ship date or are they coming in a little beforehand? Going from a Note 7 to a 5s is tough on the eyes lol. I ordered a 7 plus 128 JB only because it had an earlier ship date than the matte black.

Some of you may be better off just checking the Store stock once or twice a day.

I don't pre-order iPhones and yet I've had both the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus (black, but could've gotten any color) long before some your shipping dates. Once I saw the Store had what I wanted, I reserved a time to go and get it.

@just_me_D stores near me do not have jet black that is what I ordered when pre orders opened at 2am central on 9-9.

The preorder did work for T-Mobile. Preordered on the 9th and it still says shipping NOV 30. Passing by the store in grand central fully stocked with 7pluses except the jet black.

I purchased the Rose Gold iPhone 7 Plus on Sep 23rd. I saw that Apple had a Jet Black in stock so I reserved it and Apple swapped it out although I had gone over my 14 day return period. They made an exception saying I had 30 days to exchange. The Rose Gold looks cheap compared to the Jet Black. I am using a white silicone case on my Jet Black 7+

I did the same except exchanged for JB 7. It's an awesome finish. Swapped mine almost 3 weeks ago.

I just ordered the sim free jet black 7 plus 256 GB picking up today at the apple store down the street yep they have them in meanwhile my pre order that has been sitting in processing since 9-9 2:10am central time is about be canceled since I am no longer needing it. No longer needing to wait until Nov 11th wooooooooo

If you are still reading this thread I can understand your frustration.

Let me tell you my story it may help you get your phone.

I had preordered a Google Pixel XL in 128GB a little later in the game after we realized the Note 7 was cancelled. So being late, my preorder was not filled and I was told I was in line to get one in a month. Well that would not work for me, I had to bring a old phone out of retirement to fill in for the Note 7.

So hitting the pavement I visited stores telling my story and I found that a lady had just returned a 7+ 256GB in Silver. BOOM I was in Business!

So I did not EVER think I would in my life use an Apple phone. I am a tech weenie and liked my Android experience. But being a true tech weenie I did some research phone comparisons and saw that the new 7+ hardware was WAY ahead of of all current Android phones.

So here I am will I learn to love it?

Well I was able to walk into an apple store last night and there it was waiting 7 plus jet black 256GB purchase it unclocked got a case and let them put on the screen protector and walked out. I must say glad I was online seeing what stores had my original pre order is now cancelled no longer waiting until Nov 11th after pre ordering on 9-9 2:10 am here is to hoping that apple does not have this same issue come next year with the bigger update and redesign expected for the iphone they need to make sure they have lots on hand so that us folks that stayed up all night don't get the shaft and have to wait 3 months later to get a phone we stayed up to pre order just because of a color option we choose.

What carrier do u have?

 

[iphoneenthusiast1989]

I am almost to the point of cxl'ing my jet black 7 plus 128gb the reason well I am still p*ssed off at the fact that I logged in at 2:01 central and apple's site did not let me in until 2:10 central on 9-9 and guess what I am still waiting for my phone it will arrive per the latest on Nov 11th. You know how hard it is to log into Apple site and see ships in 9 weeks, now ships in 5 weeks, now deliver on 11-11. This sucks never in my iPhone pre-order experience has this happened from the 3gs, 4, 4s, 5, 5s, 6plus, 6splus its freaking nuts we are still waiting. Meanwhile, Apple makes the phone available in more place, and now the sim free are available, but the guy who stayed up finally got in 10mins after open on 9-9 is still waiting literally a month to go before I will get my phone. uhhhhhhhhhhgggg

I know u ordered right at launch. But I'm so frustrated. I ordered on 9/30 at the Verizon store. The expected ship date it 11/30. Now I have been to 3 local Verizon stores that have it in stock. And also been to the Apple Store that had them in stock. But when I ordered they had a promotion that if u trade in ur old 6s or 6s+ that u get the iPhone 7 for free. They said if I cancel the order I lose that promotion. But I've talked to people where they ordered the same phone as me like 2-3 weeks after me and already got it in the mail. Urghhhh

 

[iphoneenthusiast1989]

I ordered my Matte Black 128 from AT&T on 9/16. They say It'll ship between 10/21 and 10/28.

If it wasn't for their crazy awesome $650 bill credit, I would have bought one in the store, and probably had one by now.

Any one else order form AT&T seeing bumped up shipping dates?

Exactly. I got the same offer! I can't turn that down.

Sorry if someone already answered this question, but:

I ordered a MB iPhone 7+ 128GB from T-Mobile two day ago and my credit card was charged this morning Is that a sign that the phone is going to be shipped out soon? I know that's how Verizon did it, but unsure how Tmo handles backordered phones.

 

[vondrook4]

Exactly. I got the same offer! I can't turn that down.

Same here! That $650 credit is what's allowing me to get the 128GB one (it was so hard turning down the 256GB), otherwise I'd just buy it off contract and have it sooner. Still waiting on my shipping window which is Nov. 4 to the 11th :/

 

[nokia4life]

What carrier do u have?

Att but it doesn't matter I purchased the unlocked sim free 7 plus 256 gb jet black. My pre ordered one was att model that was canceled after I left the store.

You could have gotten the 256 gb with that promotion. U woulda just had to pay off the difference that the 650 credit didn't cover. Like I got the the 128gb + and that phone is 891 with tax. So I'll still have to pay like 9 dollars a month for the two years. But it's better than it being 41 a month. also they finally charged my card tonight. So I'm assuming it will be shipping out on Monday.

Yesterday, I sold my 6s Plus 64GB Rose Gold, walked into my local Apple Store and walked out with a 7 Plus 128GB Jet Black because it's been teasing me for so long
