Apple’s fall event always stirs up excitement, and this year is no different. Pre-orders for the iPhone 17 lineup and the new Apple Watches have transitioned from “Preparing to Ship” to “Shipped”. Some lucky early birds are seeing their orders as shipped on the Apple Store. If you’re among those refreshing your order status, you might be joining them soon.
Pre-orders for the iPhone 17 lineup started on September 12 at 5 a.m. PT, and the official release is set for tomorrow, September 19. If you ordered right away, expect delivery as early as Friday; otherwise, delays could push yours into next week or beyond, especially for Pro models. Pre-orders for these Apple Watches began immediately after the launch. Like the iPhones, shipments are starting now, with widespread deliveries hitting doorsteps on September 19.
There is a high demand for popular configs, like the iPhone 17 Pro in certain colors, which are facing longer waits—some up to two weeks in the US. If you haven’t pre-ordered yet, head to Apple Website or Store App to secure one before stock tightens further.
