I'm surprised by this. The S3 was one of the game changing phones for the Android Market, and it was my first leg into the Android experience as well (I got it on release, so that was some time ago), and I loved that phone. It's almost 3 generations old now (between the iPhone 4s and 5), so combined with touchwiz, I can't imagine it running well now.


its running cyanogenmod now because it worked even worse with whatever android version came with it. even with cyanogenmod, it is a piece of shite.

Dude a 4 is 4 years old now, iOS 8 ain't making it a POS

BTW, I wouldn't have tried going to a carrier store. I've heard much more success going straight to Apple which is what I did. Had to get there early in the morning but to get a reservation, but I just had to go back later the same day and pick it up since I had to get back to work.

Has anyone is in this group begun receiving their phones yet? My old iphone barely works at this point. I might need to get a burn phone until my 6+ arrives. What are my options?

Ok at least some are beginning to go out. I knew I should have gone through apple. Hopefully this means ATT will be getting some shipments in soon. I ordered on 9/19 and not one word since then.

It also depends on:

Size
Color
Date Purchased

For example, the Gold (less popular color) 128GB (less popular size) may have already shipped for you.

The 64GB (most popular size) Space Gray (most popular color) could be a long wait.

I did see where Apple has adjusted their supply chain ratio to accommodate the 6+ orders... better than no news I guess.

ETA:

I found this Google Doc that showcases people's order and their current status. Not sure how scientific this is, but it might help for perspective.

Looks like almost everyone is in the same boat. Some phones have shipped out so that's encouraging.

I ordered a 128g 6+ on preorder day and was given a 10-31 earliest ship day. This past Saturday the 25th I got a text that it had shipped should have it today. Hopefully you will get yours earlier too.

I just saw on Apple.com forum that a few people who ordered from AT&T with a 11/9-11/27 ship date have gotten shipping notifications today.

Nothing for me yet. :sadface:

I had an 11/26-12/8 estimated ship date. My status changed from that date to "pending confirmation" this morning.

Mine changed to "Pending Confirmation" on Friday night, but changed back to "Preparing to Ship - Expected Delivery Nov 9 - 17th" (I ordered on September 26th) on Saturday morning. Not sure what that Pending Confirmation means, but mine hasn't shipped to my knowledge.

I also heard on the Apple support boards that if you ordered through ATT, and your bill isnt current, it won't ship till your bill is paid, even if its behind 1-2 days. I'm not saying anyone is behind on their bills, but I just figured I would share. Had a friend who had their bill due the 23rd, didnt pay till 25th, phone shipped that evening.

When did you order your phone?

Yeah, Apple seems to be getting their phones out for late September - October orders quicker.

Hoping mine goes out this week.

I got an email Saturday saying the phone was shipped. Should get it sometime this week. Looks like they are beginning to roll out for us. Finally!
