Pixel 3 / 3 XL - Shipping Discussion

I ordered two Pixel 3 XL 128 Just Black on Oct 9.
Both show Delivered by Nov 14 - 15.
I'm disappointed that I will be waiting a month.

Well I'll be danged!
I just got an email that says both phones have been shipped.
I click on FedEx Tracking and it says they will be delivered Thurs by 8 PM.
I'm no longer disappointed! :D
 
I just refreshed the FedEx tracking page and lo and behold it's now arriving on Thursday by the end of the day instead of Friday. w00t w00t!
 
I couldn't decide and eventually ordered on the 11th and still getting it tomorrow. Just a typical black 64gb. I always get google orders in one day shipping so never pay for expedited shipping. Excited
 
Starting to see some movement of the phone being picked up by FedEx and probably being set up to be flown on overnight shipment. Nice to see it on FedEx side and will likely be shown on Google's side once it actually is shipped.

Yeah mine updated again too. Original expected delivery date Oct 23-24, FedEx tracker this morning delivery by end of day 10/19 and just now FedEx tracker delivery by end of day 10/18.

I'm having it delivered to my work but the 18th is my half day, hopefully it's a morning delivery so I don't have to hang out after work lol.
 
I didn't get an e-mail but FedEx app just advised it was picked up today and delivery is scheduled for tomorrow. w00t!
 
Just got a follow up notification from FedEx rescheduling me from tomorrow to Thursday. I'm still happy as it's still 5 or 6 days early but a part of me is dying inside right now. Lmfao
It seems a lot of phones are going out. I'm happy for everyone.
Just checked FedEx delivery manager and I'm due for delivery by end of day tomorrow.
That's a week early for me.
Sooooooooooooooo excited!
 
Black XL 128GB ordered the evening of the 9th from Verizon. Just got FedEx notification that the phone is shipping from Memphis today, for delivery the 18th by 8pm - signature required.

I'll echo what others are saying. With the number of orders going out all at once, shipping updates can be delayed while packages are scanned by FedEx.

My package shipping from Carol Stream just updated and according to FedEx, the package was picked up at 10:32 this morning so it looks like they're on top of getting these out.

Right. My phone is on 2nd stage right now and case is still on 1st (label printed). Oddly, the case and phone are shipping from different locations.
 
Wow! I ordered two phones the day of the announcement. One white XL 64 and one not pink XL 64 for my wife. The white one just shipped and is supposed to be delivered 5 or 6 days earlier than originally estimated. This roll out is going SO much smoother than last year's. My wife's not pink phone has not shipped yet but was estimated to arrive a day later than mine. So maybe tomorrow.
 
Black Pixel XL 128GB ordered late Oct 09. Original arrival date, October 22-23. Just shipped. Considering where I had it shipping to 75% chance of arriving tomorrow.
 
Alright folks, the usual Fedex Track by Reference trick works. West coast, google store order here and shipping from carol stream, IL for delivery tomorrow.

Go to : https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...ion%3Daltref%26cntry_code%3DUS&token=Cytz6bZn (Make sure you are on track by reference). Try from desktop since on mobile I don't think their webpage let's you track by reference.
Enter your full google store order number for reference number.
Select united states
Enter destination zip code.
Leave todays date as is.

PROFIT !!!!

I received a notification from FedEx that's it's enroute....what else will this method do for me?
 
If you don't have FedEx delivery manager or your order is not updated yet with tracking info.

I have it....didn't get a chance to review all options...... Does yours say direct or indirect signature required?
 
No signature required according to tracking details.

Same here. I wonder if it's based on history and/or location. Like, if you're in an apartment complex vs. an actual home. I'm in an old folks mobile home park so it's quite secure.
 
3 XL, black, 64 GB, ordered it the day of the announcement with an original expected arrival date of 10/22 or 10/23. Shipped today and should be delivered tomorrow! Luckily I live near Carol Stream in Chicagoland!
