Prolonged 'Processing' status for iPhone 17 Pro Max order in India

Hello everyone,

I'm seeking some clarity on my recent iPhone 17 Pro Max order in India. I placed my order on September 12th, and the order status has been stuck on "Processing" since then.

Here are the key details of my order:

• Product: iPhone 17 Pro Max
• Color/Storage: Cosmic Orange, 256GB
• Order Date: September 12th
• Current Status: Processing
• Estimated Delivery Date: October 3rd - October 10th

When I click on the order details, it says, "As soon as the item is ready, we’ll send you an update and prepare it for delivery." I also spoke to an Apple Support representative, who told me the product would be shipped from Mumbai, which would take approximately one day to reach me.

I understand this is a new and highly popular product, but seeing the order status unchanged for so long is making me anxious.

I'm hoping to hear from other users in India who ordered the same or a similar model. Have you also experienced a long "Processing" time? Did your status eventually change, and how close was it to your estimated delivery date?

Any insights or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
