Iphone Pre-order

Hello, I pre-ordered the new Iphone 12 pro max few days ago and it says that it will be delivered at 24 Nov- 6 Dec, I’m really upset i have to wait that long I actually pre-ordered to get it very early, is there a chance i can get my order sooner than that? Please and thank you

You're welcome. I've been at this rodeo many many times. If you want the latest and greatest the moment they are released to the public, you have to bee at your computer, at the ready the moment they open pre-orders.


The good news is you got your order in and even though you may not have your phone this weekend, you will be getting your phone and Apple usually gets orders out within the delivery window, but often at the early part of the delivery window.


You'll see your order stay in the Processing stage for quite some time. You'll know it's status is changing when you are told it is "Preparing to Ship." At that point, you'll actually be charged for the phone. Then when it has shipped, you'll receive notification with tracking information so you can track it.


It's never fun to wait, but the wait will be worth it ultimately.

The chances of any store having one on launch day you can just go buy is remote to none. They will have them on display. They are VERY unlikely to have ANY available you can just walk in and purchase. I ordered within seconds of pre-orders going live on the 6th and I'm getting my 12 Pro Max on the 13th. A guy in my office didn't order until that afternoon and his deliver window is somewhere closer to yours. You can go online and check your store's stock in the morning and if you see what you want, you can them schedule an appointment to shop with a specialist in-store. Apple doesn't just take walk-in customers in the age of Covid these days.
