Apple Store closed, Apple (and Amazon) are preparing for iPhone 14 orders. Everything proceeds with the usual schedule: Apple “shuts down” the Apple Store in view of the start of orders for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro and the AirPods Pro of second generation. But Amazon is also ready to give the opportunity to buy the same products.
Apple Watch 8 and Apple Watch SE 2022, all the news and prices
For a few hours, Apple’s online sales site has not been reachable and this both in its computer version and through the app. This is when Apple employees update systems, enter inventory options, and prepare to put new products on sale for pre-order.
Whoever orders today will have the phones at home next Friday even if, as always, some delays can be expected if you are no longer than quick with the click. If you are anxious to have an iPhone 14 or iPhone 14 Pro at home, we invite you to get ready and take note that this year orders will leave not at 9 am but at 2 pm.
At the same time it will again be possible to pre-order the new Apple Watches, including the Apple Watch Ultra, which had already appeared on the online site just after their presentation.
Finally, the second generation AirPods Pro will also be ordered.
It is worth remembering that this year while all orders begin together, the availability of products is differentiated. In summary, those who order today (subject to exhaustion or delays for too many orders, which we talk about below) may already have Friday
- iPhone 14
- iPhone 14 Pro
- iPhone 14 Pro Max
- Second generation Apple Watch SE
- Apple Watch Series 8
Friday 23 September they will arrive
- Second generation AirPods Pro
- Apple Watch Ultra
Recall that, however, yesterday Apple had already (virtually) put the “delay” sign on some models of Apple Watch 8 and Apple Watch Ultra: some configurations (GPS + Cellular) and also combinations of case and bracelet were indicated in delivery with two months of wait.
At this point it might be interesting to contact Amazon which is also ready to launch orders. Since yesterday at the large online retailer it is possible to pre-order the Apple Watch (including the Apple Watch Ultra) and it does not seem that there are any delays whatsoever. In the past it has already happened that Amazon was able, especially at the launch of a product, to fulfill orders before Apple. It is possible that for at least the whole weekend if you want to have an iPhone or an Apple Watch shipped home as soon as possible, the right way is to buy it on Amazon
Recall Amazon sells at the same price and under the same conditions as Apple, although it is possible that you end up paying for some delay with delivery, instead of Friday 24 September or the following Saturday or Monday. But Amazon has advantages that Apple doesn’t offer such as hassle-free returns for up to 30 days after purchase and especially after the first few minutes, when Apple begins to scale up shipping times, Amazon will continue to have near-instant availability. At least that’s what he taught us in the past.
