Of course, I ordered a new iPhone, too! This year I ordered the iPhone 13 Pro Max 256 GB Graphite. And it can't be Friday soon enough, I have sold my 12 Pro Max already and am now using a Samsung S10 Plus.

I've ordered the iPhone 13 Pro with 256 GBs and got a September 24th delivery date. I'm really excited about this year's iPhones. They finally added the 120 Hz display and at least shrunk the notch a little bit. Still a bit scared about quality issues however, the first time I'd done a pre-order in 2018, the iPhone Xs ended up having abysmal cellular connection, which was why I ultimately returned the phone.

Fingers crossed that there's nothing of the like this time. Coming from the iPhone X, this feels like a really good upgrade with the compounded progression over the past couple of years.
 
I've ordered the 13 Pro max 256gb from Amazon Germany. Status is

We will email you when we have an estimated delivery date.​

Whatever that means, you can still pre order and it says Releasing on the 24th.
I'm hoping that it will be delivered on friday, because i placed the pre order the moment it became available.

Let's wait and see :)

Also: Just curious, but why haven't you ordered directly from Apple?
 
I'm so excited for this update. Coming from an iPhone X so it's gonna be a huge leap for me.

Ordered from Portugal, yesterday at 13:02 😃

It was earlier available for me. I placed the order about 14:08 and in the Apple Site I couldn't place the order. And I never had problems with pre orders from Amazon

Ah okay :) I've never pre-ordered from Amazon or third-party sites in general, only directly at Apple

Was just able to cancel my 13 pro max 256GB graphite order to downgrade to a non max with same specs.
For pickup on 24th @ apple store (germany)
 
That's because the iPhones/iPads/MacBooks etc. for EU orders are being transported to one of the warehouses (Prague - CZ, Eindhoven - NL, or Milan - IT) first, and from there, they'll be packaged up and shipped to you via UPS or DHL Express.

I'm unsure as to why they do this, but maybe it's cheaper for them to do it like that
It’s because of an EU toll & duty for orders from China. Apple customers don’t individually need to pay the toll as Apple does it and resend the product from these centers.

Has anyone ordered something to pickup from Apple store but couldn’t take at that day? Does our products wait until I get there? I couldn’t find any source on that and I think process is different in Europe than US.
 
I just want to kindly remind you to always specify the time of your order when so that we others can compare our estimated delivery dates in accordance.

Thank you!

I ordered the Graphite 128 GB version (Luxembourg) iPhone 13 Pro Max.

Got the confirmation mail 53 minutes after launch.

Says it's arriving on October 4th-11th.

At what time did you order? I ordered 14:03 and so far delivery is on 24th (max graphite 128)
 
Ordered 128 blue Pro from Norway within minutes of the store opening and got 27 Sep delivery date
 
Ordering 1x iPhone 13 Pro Max Sierra Blue 256GB to myself and 1x iPhone 13 Pro Gold 256GB for my wife was a wrestling match with the Apple Store app.

I opted to use Apple Pay for the first time ever as last year I switched credit cards so my new one supports Apple Pay. Something went wrong with the transaction so I had to use a link provided by Apple to update my payment. For whatever reason this link would insist on popping up with a card / bank verification window that was tiny so I was unable to click "next" after filling in the required information because it was outside of the screen..

Had to get in contact with Apple support for them to have my order removed, give me a custom link to place a new order with release day shipping as the current shipping estimates had extended far into October and this time around Apple Pay was working.

Still not entirely convinced but the order status is claiming preparing for shipment and delivery 24th of September so I suppose I'm good to go.
 
I ordered a 128gb pacific blue iPhone 13 pro, around 3:30 PM on Friday, from Portugal. Delivery date was set to the 24th, and never changed since then. However I´m still stuck on "processing" since then. Should I be worried??

Not yet, it could still change on Thursday.

However, I'd recommend checking with Apple in 1-2 days if you're still unsure :)

Depending on where in Europe you are located, you might not see any change in status until your order heads out from one of the European hubs for delivery in your country. This will likely be Wednesday/Thursday for delivery on the 24th.

Thanks guys. My main problem is that I already sold my previous iPhone 12 Pro, so I´m "scared" af of having to endure until October without an iPhone.
 
Ordered the iPhone 13 Pro 128Gb at 13:03 last friday directly on Apple Store Portugal and got the estimate delivery date for Set 27. Already got the status "Preparing Shippment" but now I've lost the delivery date. The money already been reserved on my bank account too.

In front of the "Chega" word I had the specific date and now have nothing.

Anyone with the same "issue"?
