iPhone SE and 9.7" iPad Pro Orders Now Shipping Ahead of March 31 Launch

[MacRumors]

iPhone SE online orders, which commenced March 24, are now shipping to select customers in the United States, Canada, Hong Kong, United Kingdom, and elsewhere, ahead of the new 4-inch smartphone's official March 31 launch tomorrow in twelve countries and territories.

Multiple users tracking their iPhone SE shipments in the MacRumors discussion forums have received delivery estimates of between March 31 and April 4. As usual, it appears that UPS is Apple's primary courier for orders placed in North America, while DPD and UKMail are handling deliveries in the United Kingdom.

iPhone SE should also be available tomorrow at Apple retail stores, and through AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, and select other carriers. Authorized resellers like Best Buy may too have limited stock, generally on a first-come, first-served basis. Some retailers may accept reservations for in-store pickup.

Apple's first wave launch countries for iPhone SE include the United States, Australia, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand, Puerto Rico, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. Orders started March 29 in an additional 20 countries, with more to follow in early April.

9.7-inch iPad Pro orders have also shipped for many customers. Keep track here.

Am getting one! This will be my keep forever phone!

64 GB Space Grey coming tomorrow for my wife. She has no idea. I'll wait til she's asleep then activate it, restore from iCloud, then swap it in to her 5s case and see how long it takes her to notice.

I pre-ordered last week and delivery wasn't available until mid-April. And for some reason, the option for in-store pickup was greyed out. Either the SE has already sold out its initial run, or Apple's online store is messed up. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the former. I'm making a trip to my local Apple Store today to see if I can clear up this mystery.

Well aren't you a sneaky (and generous) one!

Dear Jony, whats the point of having 2 different shades of Space Gray across the product line ??

Fully agreed, it's like he can't decide which one to go with!

All Apple does anymore is change the sizes of their products and yet people keep buying them.

They are going for 50.

I sold my 6s and preordered the same day last week and I got two emails from Apple Singapore today saying it was being prepared for shipping and then that it was shipped and that I will receive it tomorrow on the 31st. I can't wait to get my 64/Space grey SE!

 

[mountain]

Going to pick one of these babies up for my SO.

 

[rneglia]

I'm going to get in line tomorrow and buy whatever color of 64gb they have in stock.

My order of preference will be:

1. Rose gold
2. Gold
3. Silver
4. Space gray

It's just a rendering and not representative of what it'll look like in real life. Here's 2 different official renderings of the same space black Apple Watch-

Very nice! I would be interested in how this story pans out.

How are you going to get around the Touch ID? As a fallback plan, maybe a bow and some wrapping paper and let her set it up herself?

 

[JackieInCo]

T-Mobile is offering buy any iPhone get one half off when you add a new line if anyone is interested. Includes SE already preordered phones too.

Except that this is an upgrade from the 5S, where practically everything has changed except the size.

 

[iZac]

Still one more excruciating week for me...

Very clever

...crap.

 

[thisisnotmyname]

we don't have 300 posts of "I can't wait" or "my body is ready", I know there was a lot of excitement for this but is that an anecdotal sign of weaker than expected sales?

she'll just think her finger is positioned wrong or it's a humid day or she was just out for a run (in her sleep) or...

The delivery date for my 64 GB Rose Gold slipped from April 1 to April 5.

Wife dropped her old 5C last week and cracked the screen. Her new SE will be in her hands tomorrow! I love my 64GB 6, but I'm kinda jealous.
