Authored by macrumors.com and submitted by tomnavratil

Apple today opened pre-orders for the 6.1-inch models of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro through its website and the Apple Store app, and estimated delivery times are already slipping into November for select configurations in the United States.

Customers ordering a SIM-free/Pacific Blue/128GB version of the iPhone 12 Pro, for example, are already facing an estimated delivery window of November 6-13. Some configurations of the iPhone 12 Pro remain available for launch day delivery on October 23, but inventory is quickly dwindling, so customers should order as soon as possible.

Availability of the standard iPhone 12 is faring better so far, with many configurations still available for launch day delivery on October 23.

Pre-orders for the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max begin later, on Friday, November 6. Pricing starts at $699 for the iPhone 12 mini, $799 for the iPhone 12, $999 for the iPhone 12 Pro, and $1,099 for the iPhone 12 Pro Max.

Apple has also started accepting orders for the new iPad Air, which remains available for launch day delivery on October 23 at the time of writing this.

Apple Employee here, the trick is to wait to order for pickup on the day of release right when the stores open for business. You’re welcome.

Someone at Apple go show nVidia how to sell products beyond what is literally in stock today. I’d love to know exactly when I can get a 3080 delivered.

I woke up an hour late and ended up with Nov 6 - Nov 13 delivery.

Edit: My order was from the Apple Store, not my carrier.
