Xbox One X Preorder Thread

- Start date
I asked them why my order hadn't shipped
Check the email I received
My order still says
Amazon are a joke
I don't get what the problem is. Even in the US mine isn't shipping until Monday. They schedule the ship date to make sure you don't get it too early or too late.

My ship date was the 4th
That ship date was probably a mistake. My nearest Amazon distro is like 6-7 hours away and I always get my release date stuff shipped in one day. It will probably leave late tonight.

If they fuck my order up Ill be cancelling it on principle. Ill buy elsewhere when theres stock.
Theyve not notified me and Id expect them to let me know by now. Especially as I ordered about a month later than you.
Makes you wonder when they were going to tell you then if you had to email them.
The only positive might be that the customer service team sometimes talk rubbish. They might have been talking about stock showing on the website, time will tell tomorrow as theres nothing to worry about just yet in my opinion...

Not sure why they all do shit like this. GameStop sent me an email on Thursday the 2nd with tracking # and all saying it was "Shipped". Yet when I track it on UPS's site, all it says is "Order Processed: Ready for UPS". - So basically all they did was print out a label but won't actually ship it until tomorrow.

That's what pisses me off the most. I'll wait until tomorrow if there is no change I will be sending a heated email
If you dont get yours and you ordered early people like me have got no chance.
They shouldnt take orders if they dont have allocated stock.
Im a little concerned now as I ordered about a month after you but dont want to contact them yet just in case it jinxes it lol. Plus its not meant to dispatch until tomorrow so Ive got nothing to ask them yet technically.

I've been charged, but I'm in Canada so I don't know if that's helpful.

Yeah all seems strange. If it ships tomorrow you get it on launch day. Whats the issue.

Got my email saying it was shipped from the Microsoft Store yesterday.

Now mine is saying will dispatch tomorrow delivery by Tuesday.

I'm in the same boat. Yesterday I got info that console was shipped from MS Store in Europe by UPS and left Eindhoven (The Netherlands). I think this is a glitch on the side of UPS tracking system.
You're right, which is why I'm not panicking as my order has always said dispatching tomorrow.
However the issue for one person on here is they contacted Amazon and have now been told that they don't have stock to fulfill their order.
They also ordered on the 20th of August which is pretty early compared to others. So I'm now wondering if someone who ordered on the 20th hasn't been allocated a console, what are the chances I've got one if I ordered a month later lol.
If it turns out that they don't have stock for my order I'll just grab the White solus Pro that's released on the 7th until I can walk into a store and buy an X.
The only glimmer of hope is the email states: I've checked the availability for Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition 1TB Console , and can confirm that it's currently not available in stock.
I think they might have crossed their wires and just quoted current availability of the item on the website, as opposed to the pre-order status, but time will tell tomorrow.

For those who pre ordered tomorrow..according to the email I received last week, I will receive a tracking number tomorrow and the XBOX ONE X will arrive on Wednesday is that how it works because when I go to my order status it just says "Open"
Same. And, yes comes direct from MS. Must control urge to buy AC:O.
So tempted to buy an LG OLED.
Awesome, cheers for clarity mate! Ha yeah I wasnt going to but was walking out of shop and saw the display stand..Im weak!
Don't worry, I'm weak too and ordered Shadow of war ;-)

Just a heads up regarding my Best Buy preorder. I had to go to Make Changes and choose 1 day shipping so I got Tues the 7th as delivery date. Without that delivery date said Thursday the 9th. I didnt see that until I was able to choose Make Changes. That button was disabled up until Friday.
same.

Weird, from what I understand some Amazon orders in the U.S. should be shipping in many areas of the country on sunday via laserShip.
Cancelled pre-orders more than likely and it'll probably only be a small window of availability.
I don't think it's gonna be similar to Day One edition Xbox Ones which you could buy 6 months later.
US or UK?

Amazon just charged me for my Scorpio edition and it shows "preparing for shipping" ^_^
I'm still waiting for shipping info, ordered at MS Store (Norway) the second it went live.
For those of you that was unsure about the gradient look of the Scorpio Edition. The last few days some unboxing videos has been posted on youtube by influencers that has gotten their review samples. I don't think the gradient is that noticible and seems subtle. I'm glad I kept my Scorpio pre-order.

this guys video explains it good.
I spoke to Amazon and they assured me everything would arrive Tuesday. Not sure why Microsoft cares if a few people get Monday shipments, but it seems to cause situations like this.

So i have an online preorder from Best Buy that says "to be picked up on 11.7.2017". The store i set for pick up is having a midnight release (well, 11pm). Does that mean i can pick it up tomorrow night when they open instead of Tuesday?

I have an extra preorder if anyone wants it in the Dallas area.

Yes, thats just an automated message. I picked up COD WW2 at 11pm on Nov 2nd when their automated message said ready for pick-up Nov 3rd. I'll be doing the same tomorrow with the One X, 11pm pick up.
Their automated messages don't coincide with special events, such as 11pm launches. The automated messages are sent basically just to tell you that your product has arrived at your local Best Buy and is in the building.

My brother PreOrdered the Scorpio Edition and Regular edition One X from Amazon on the same account. Guess Amazon looks at them as separate products. He also PreOrdered a Scorpio Edition from Best Buy! Haha
Mine to I'm shocked thought for sure was not getting one. Out of the blue Saturday status of the order changed. Big thanks to those who canceled and letting me get one. Now to decide if the 65 lg oled is worth 1k more than the 55. I have a 55 now and at viewing distance it is about right 6-7 feet.

I have a KS8000, but need another tv for the house Im building. Debating on the 65 OLED myself, or a second similar tv like the KS8000. On IGNs daily deals they link the 65 saying its on sale for $2100 right now but clicking the link is still showing it at $2600. Hmmmm choices.
There been a few eBay deals this week around 2200 for the 65b7. I just have shit luck and end up getting shafted on a repair. So just little hesitant. So just holding out little longer for authorized reseller has great sale.

Yeah EBay scares me. Im an amazon faithful lol. Or the typical Bestbuy etc.
Not to hijack the thread but being somewhat new to researching OLEDs how come RTINGS site doesnt have the b7? Any clue? They have the c7 though. Not sure of the difference with all these.
Side note: my card was charged for my Scorpion preorder. Looking forward to Tuesday!

The c7 difference is the ability to decode atmos (b7 does pass thru though) and superficial differences. The screen and processing is the same.
The ebay deals are usually from buydig who are very reputable. I got my 65" b7 from Fry's for 2100 like a month ago. I love it!
Does anyone know how to make the Xbox One download 4K assets right now?
I have it checked in my settings to download 4K assets, I have Keep my games and apps up to date checked as well.
I just finished transferring all installed games to my external HDD but I want to download and transfer all the 4K assets now too before Tuesday.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
