iPhone 16 - Preparing to Ship

How long did your iPhone 16 order stay at preparing to ship before actually shipping? My order has been processing since the morning of 9/13 (ETA 10/7) and recently updated to preparing to ship (new ETA 10/22). I’m curious how accurate the new/later ETA is

IPhone 17 Pro Delivery Delay I ordered an iPhone 17 Pro 512GB Deep Blue and an iPhone 17 256GB White on September 13, but the delivery has already been delayed twice. The original shipping date was September 19. The first delay changed it to October 3–10, and now it’s been pushed back again to October 24–31. Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? Why is it taking so long for delivery? Thanks!
