iPhone X Orders Thread
- Page 1 of 1
I get to start my order tonight.
Question is, Space Grey or Silver. Help us decide, we're ordering a few of them.

I’ve got the preapproval, carrier info, and model selection ready to go in the app. I’m stoked. I’m gonna go with 64gb space grey.
Silver > Space Grey on this occasion imo.
Something about the white and stainless steel just looks classy and the white and glass back reminds me of the GOAT design.

Preordering at 8am UK here. Still haven’t decided if I’ll go for silver or space grey. I’m leaning towards silver. Has anyone used the Apple store app to buy anything before? I think it’ll be quicker having Apple Pay built in.
By Smokey Go To PostPre-orders go live tonight? Apple noob here.
By Fenderputty Go To PostWait tonight at midnight?
Through my carrier and time zone, you guys get the preorders tomorrow.
Depending on where you go to order it, I suggest giving yourself at least an hour to star refreshing because this launch is going to be even crazier than all past iPhone launches in day one demand.

I need Space Grey to keep matching everything else.
I still haven’t seen a concrete answer as to whether you need to open the app fresh when it’s time or whether you can already be in the app and just click through from your favourites when it’s time. I don’t want to do the latter and find I have to close and reopen the app to make it available.

Everything Ive seen on Macrumors says you need to force close the app.

I don't follow. The page will go live at the same time for everyone and no amount of F5-ing will change that.
I am going to shoot for the Black, 64GB iPhone X.
It makes sense to start a new thread exclusively for pre-orders, is anyone upgrading through a carrier? I have to rely on O2 (UK Network) to update their website.

Damn....need to change my payment details but the store is down, will it be up before pre-orders commence?
Pre-ordered iPhone X 64GB in Silver from O2. It was proper easy to get through all the steps; I will be picking it up from a local shop on Friday
By Fenderputty Go To PostDun dun dun dunYep, it's almost go time. I took a nap after work, woke up, picked up Super Mario Odyssey and it's made the wait so much easier. I had to make sure I wasn't losing track of time, either, which has been easy to do with Mario!
I couldn't get through T-Mobile's website for the life of me. It crashed hard every time I'd go to pick which line was getting the phone.
Then Apple's website and App Store was slow on the draw, but I finally managed to preorder a 64GB and 256GB White model. I'm only going to keep one, though, and decline the delivery on the other.
My delivery dates for both say "Nov 17 - Nov 24 by Standard Shipping." I've known that date to not be accurate, in favor of getting it before then.
Anyone else that snagged on through the Apple Store, what does your delivery date say?

I decided to order this tonight. Was pretty iffy on it but finally decided to pull the trigger a few hours ago. Set an alarm for 2:50 am. Had the AT&T site on my laptop open and the Apple Store app on my phone open. AT&T site crashed after a 7-minute countdown (and is still down I think). Got a silver 64GB through the app. Delivery on November 3rd.

Mine says the same, the site wouldn't refresh but I ordered it at like 3:05.

After about 15 minutes of the T-Mobile iphone X upgrade page crashing, I finally got through, but it led to a dead-end for Jump on Demand users like me. It basically told me to call their customer service, which I probably should’ve done from the beginning. Anyway, was on hold for about 10 minutes and was able to upgrade my phone for a 64GB Space Grey set to deliver on Nov 3rd without issue.
I'm on Sprint, think the carrier websites are getting hammered. Got a "reserved" 256GB Silver through the Apple Store app, but haven't actually submitted an order. Says it'll contact me via email when I can complete the order and then I have 24 hours to do so. I'm kinda skeptical, but we'll see...

I ended up getting one on release day but I'm not sure if I was just lucky or what.

That's encouraging. I did choose in-store pickup so hopefully it all works out.
Best Buy came through with the clutch for me. Apple Store wasn't loading and ATT tried to hit me with the 20 minute waiting time, but I just breezed through on Best Buy.
Told my bank I'd be ordering the device, got in at 8:04am, got a preorder for release day delivery, and then on the walk to work, my bank phoned me to tell me the payment was declined for a fraud check.
Absolute shitheads.
Will see how it effects my order, and whether or not they've attempted the charge again, but I'm not feeling lucky.

I actually ordered one phone prior to midnight somehow when doing an account login. Only one though. Not sure how that happened as I was at the order screen when I noticed and decided not to go back. Got in another que and then it was saying I wasn't eligible for an upgrade on the other phone. This time I went back, signed in again and it worked. Lame
ugh.....had the app already but didn't realise that i needed to re-connect to the wifi to get it to load. By the time I got in the CVC code from the credit card which I didn't know they would ask for, 3/11 pickup was all gone and so was delivery. Finally got it in with delivery in 2 weeks
not too bad i guess considering this was my first time pre-ordering an apple device at launch, lessons learnt for next time

Next time, you'd just need to open the app, go to your favourites, and hit purchase.

Perfect

In the end I tapped quickly selecting the right phone and model (Silver 64gb) and got it for day one delivery

Yeah, had all that ready to go before hand. Just didn't know it would ask for the CVC code and in the time it took for me to grab my wallet, all pick up time slots that worked for me were gone which meant switching too delivery which pushed it again
I can live with with it, not the end of the world
December 11-18 because I got locked out for an hour from useless step 935 that Apple has you go through with no forewarning.

Dp.
Clearly I'm tired and angry.

Sweet, I choose in-store pickup, but that option wasn't available when I got to finalize my order. Will still be delivered on 11/3 via shipping (Sprint customer in NYC). Unfortunately I'm out of town Fri/Sat so I won't get to use it til Sunday ugh.
Couldn't get my preorder in as AT&T website took a shit on me. Plus I'm not waiting till December to upgrade which would move my upgrade to January, not paying 3 to 4 months of payments next year. So since that fiasco and it's a first gen product, so expect some issues I just upgraded my 7plus to an 8plus 256gb,
I picked up the device from O2 had an insane mix up with identification on the purchase, as the manager was ill-informed with the relegations and wanted passport documentation. Apart from the crazy security overload I've set up my Silver iPhone X with no hassle, seamless integration of the gestures and Face ID is insane
