Size comparison between the Spigen Rugged Armor for the 6s Plus and iPhone X. Pic might not do it justice but the size difference between the two phones is pretty significant.

Those who ordered through AT&T, you can finally see tracking info. Just checked the order status page and it has finally been shipped. Been sitting at "preparing to ship" since Monday morning. Although the label was created and package was picked up, at&t never emailed or texted me that info.
Was hoping to get it today so I can take it with me on my Disney trip. But it specifically says sender instructed to be delivered on Friday smh. I've already arranged for my moms to be posted at my place all day to receive package lol. Won't be home until Sunday.

What sort of case did you get, one of those thick Otterbox old man cases
I have a couple of Spigen and Apple leather cases already and it's a lot smaller. Seems closer to regular 7 size.

iPhone X Cheat Sheet for Popular Button Combos & Gestures
With the removal of the home button, the iPhone X handles commands for screenshots, power off, Siri, etc. a little differently than its predecessors.
Here are the iPhone X button combos we know so far:
Action Button Combo
Screenshot Quick press Side Button + Volume Up
Hard Reset (force restart) Press and release Volume Up, press and release Volume Down, then hold Side Button.
Power Off Long press Volume Up + Side Button, slide to power off.
Siri Press and hold Side Button until activated (1-2 seconds)
Force passcode (disable FaceID) Press/release Side Button + Volume Up or Down from lock screen
Apple Pay Press Side Button twice
Emergency SOS Press Side Button 5 times rapidly
Zoom/VoiceOver (accessibility features) When enabled, triple press Side Button
Here are key gestures that are specific to iPhone X:
Action Gesture
Back to Home Swipe up from bottom gesture area (skinny black bar)
Swipe Between Apps Touch gesture area (bottom of screen) and swipe left to right for the previous app, right to left to return to the next app
Activate multitasking Touch gesture area and swipe up slightly and hold. Release when multitasking is displayed
Control center Swipe down from top right of screen
Notifications Swipe down from top of screen (notch and to the left)
Reachability Must be enabled first in accessibility (Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> turn on Reachability). When enabled, swipe down from gesture bar (bottom of screen)

I went with this case by Nomad Goods. Kept seeing it pop up on my IG ads; and I took the bait. It came earlier this week. Looks pretty nice in person. I'm ready for tomorrow.

Its like putting in cheat codes with all these combos, up. down. left. right. a. b. start.
I waited to order my phone and did it this morning and there still was a ship by date of 11/14, people really don't mess with Sprint like that

Yeah if you ordered through Apple. AT&T stock is/was already stateside when pre-orders were placed. So you if ordered through them then the farthest step you'd see is "preparing to ship".
And AT&T always used UPS to send me all my iPhone I've ordered through them. So to my surprise they're using FedEx even though the chat rep told me UPS would be the service they'd be using in my area. As they always have. That's why I was wondering nothing was showing in my Home delivery calendar in my choice

I ordered the silver like 5 hours after pre-order began and it's still in progress between 11/02-11/10...
the auction for my current iphone 7 Plus ends Saturday...
I MAY have goofed...

I ordered about 1 - 1 1/2 hrs after it went live on AT&T and mine still says the same thing estimated shipping 11/02 - 11/10
All you can do is hope right now at the moment it ships today or tomorrow if not you just contact the winner saying you are waiting for your phone to come in before you ship.
I was waiting for my X to come in before listing my 7 plus.
