LOVE it. it is so great to have a working phone and I am still getting used to 3d touch. FaceID is so much better than touchID. Some apps I had would not load but newer versions were able to (words with friends classic would not show up) I set up as new and just let iCloud do its thing. I also went into the app store and found what apps I purchased and selected all the apps I wanted and now its set up just how I want it and it was super quick. Have not used apple pay or synced it with my car yet but that will happen. I give it 8 thumbs up (out of 8)
You really won't know until Apple actually charges your card. Your card will get charged before you get any notification the order is being shipped. Then the status changes to Preparing for Shipping, then Shipped. For example. My Apple order for iPhone X suggested a delivery date range of December 1 - 8. Two days ago, my credit card was officially charged and a few hours later I received a notification my phone was Preparing to Ship. Yesterday, I saw the order was actually shipped and now I can track it. According to UPS, my phone will arrive this coming Monday, November 20th. That's at least 2 weeks sooner than expected. As a point of reference however, this phone was ordered within one hour of pre-orders going live on October 27th.
I'm so glad you're having fun with the phone. It's a marvel for sure. I've used Apple Pay since it came out, but with touch ID on a iPhone 6, it wasn't all that easy. Now with Face ID, Apple Pay is just so easy and fast. On syncing with your car. If you had your previous phone paired with your car, it's always good to go into your car settings and forget your previous phone. Then on your new X, name it something different from what your previous phone was named. These two steps usually make pairing a new iPhone with a car system painless and simple.
When I was using Siri in the car it thought I was making a call to my phone. it's funny but it works. Not too worried. I use do not disturb so I won't be distracted. None of the texts I get are vital and if they are the person can call me.
I finally got a tracking update. There's zero chance it's coming today or even likely tomorrow. It arrived in Louisville, yesterday morning and got an arrival scan. It took 27 hours to go from arrival scan to import scan, so it's still in the UPS Louisville, spa. Even if it hopped a plane to Tampa, tonight, it won't be delivered tomorrow on Saturday, because the shipping method Apple chose is business day only, meaning M - F. So, Monday, the 20th it is.
No, because the first phone came through AT&T. This one is coming from Apple, so I imagine I'll get an invitation. But I truly don't need to have an Apple tutorial. I'm willing to bet I could probably teach the Genius a trick or two at this point!
I went ahead and signed up for it (I've also been signing up for some Today at Apple sessions: I'm on a first name basis with the managers at one store because of my reviews). Had it tonight and I did actually learn a few things that I was not aware of and some options I didn't know existed.
I went to the Apple store to get a case and to recycle my 6plus. since there was a small crack on the bottom of the screen and the overall condition, I got a $25 for it. Now my new phone isn't nekkid and its running smooth as can be. No more fuss bus.
I've never had an iPhone which didn't luxuriate in a case or not have a good quality screen protector on it.
So, my phone is physically in Florida. It chose to spend a day or so in Jacksonville. Tonight is the start of Night of Lights in St. Augustine, so I hope it takes a couple nice pics for me before heading over to Tampa.
Yep. The 2nd phone arrived this afternoon. Got the new one set up under my ID and phone number. Replaced the sim in the one we got two weeks ago and it's all set up for my partner. It did take some work on AT&Ts part to get it initialized on the network, but all is happy in iPhone X land! I even managed to get the newest Xagg Saphire Defense screen protector installed. All Bluetooth devices are synced and both car systems fully connected and running great!
We don't have a Zagg Kiosk at any of our malls. For me, it was Best Buy or Best Buy. I knew our Best Buy had the Sapphire in stock. Their computer showed they had it. But no one could find them. They were putting the regular glass protector on, when I found them myself after asking them to look for it. I made them take the glass off and replace it with the Sapphire. I don't know if the extra $10 is worth it or not, other than mental satisfaction. They say it's 7 times stronger as opposed to the 3 times for the regular glass.
There is no telling. It should arrive sometime between the dates Apple sent you. That does not include delays in customs though.
Thank You :)
You helped me a lot! So thankful! I ordered on november 7th. All the best to you with your new iphone!

😟 I am on the fuss bus.
I'm sure you're stopping is coming soon.
I really, really like that expression.
Maybe security!? Cause I already received a fraudulent email as soon as I ordered the X through the site. Thank you! All the best!
