I have question would they do the iPhone 7 preorders on a Saturday or Friday ?

Will they keep the same time for preorder 12 pst and 3 am est since I live in Pennsylvania ?

Which is the fastest way to preorder the iPhone 7 in your past experience ordering iPhones online ?

The day the iPhone goes up for pre-order all depends on Apple. Typically in the past iPhone pre-orders have gone up on Friday. All iPhone pre-orders have gone live at 12:00 PST/3:00 AM EST. The fastest really all depends. If your intentions are purchase at full price with an update to your current phone or full price bypassing the carrier all together then Apple's website is the way to go. If your intention is to pay the subsidized price , then the carrier is the way to go.

Since your iPhone is off contract you could go ether way. Apple recently updated their iPhone buy page so you can buy your iPhone full price without dealing with Verizon. just put your sim inside

Sweet! Yeah my contract expired in June, so I'm free now! Lol. So an unlocked version would be the best way to go? That way I could just put my sim in the new phone. Idk if you'd know, but does apple usually offer an unlocked version from launch?

Since carriers began offering full price, my answer would be yes. As mentioned before Apple update their iPhone buy page. Once you select your carrier the bottom of the page you will se pay in full unlocked

I looked on the upgrade program page and I'm a little confused. So you can pay in full for an unlocked iPhone every year. But what's the point? Because I would just buy it outright for the full price every time without AppleCare. Or is the point of it so that I would get an unlocked version from launch?
