We going to wait for this thing. Just opened Barclay Aviator Red and AmEx Delta. Not sure if it is good to push the envelope.
Approved: 2,800
Fico: 724(via Discover)
Pulled: Transunion
Utilization: 11%
new accounts within last 6 months: 3

(*Was always auto-declined without a hardpull for the Cash Forward after getting my two accounts 3 yrs ago. They didn't like all my new accounts since then. Shocked at approval)

For all those lurking, I posted a pretty whacky instant decline turned to approval with Barclays in the CC Approval forum. I won't copy + paste because it's long, but there's hope for everyone!
Everyone is right, Barclays is very much a YMMV bank.

No hurry to risk it. I'm helping a family member to get the first Chase card. Have to wait to get the Chase card first. Then this Uber.
Ever since the card was announced I wanted to apply, but was worried about approval. Took a shot and it worked out pretty well!
TU: ~718
AAOA: 7 Months (Opened a majority of my accounts (14/17) in the past six/seven months)
Inquries: 11
UTL: Across all cards is 2%. One card has a 50% due to a balance transfer.

You could call back and try to get it higher. Won't hurt to ask
