Last time was it 12:00:01 or 12:01:00?? I don't want to have to wait a few weeks just because I was off by one minute!
 
Hopefully I can snatch one for pick up in Hawaii. I am not gonna pay them euro prices

Not the best idea. These are not world phones. The US model supports some LTE bands only used here and missing one that is used in Europe.
 



Pre-orders for the iPhone XS, XS Max, and Apple Watch Series 4 will kick off on Friday, September 14 at 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time, allowing customers to purchase one of Apple's newly announced devices.

Apple is planning to make the new devices available in multiple countries around the world simultaneously, so we've created a list of when pre-orders will kick off all around the world.

We haven't listed every time zone for every country, such as in Canada, Russia, and the United States, so make sure to double check your specific time zone so you're certain you know the exact time that pre-orders will kick off. A time zone converting website is a useful tool for confirming accurate pre-order times.

Rumors have not suggested that supplies of the iPhone XS and XS Max will be constrained, but it is always best to pre-order as soon as possible if you're aiming to get a new device on launch day.

We also haven't heard rumors about Apple Watch Series 4 supply, but given that this year introduces major changes like larger displays and ECG functionality, available supply could go quickly.

iPhone XS and XS Max pre-orders are available September 14 in first wave launch countries including Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Ireland, Isle of Man, Italy, Japan, Jersey, Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, the UAE, UK, US and US Virgin Islands.

Pre-orders for the cellular Apple Watch Series 4 models are available in Australia, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the UAE, UK and US.

Non-cellular Apple Watch Series 4 models are available for pre-order in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Jersey, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the UAE, UK, US and US Virgin Islands.

The first pre-orders for new iPhone and Apple Watch models will arrive on Friday, September 21, the official launch date for the iPhone XS, XS Max, and Apple Watch Series 4.

The apple store app in New Zealand says 7.01pm NZST FYI
 
Won't happen. Hawaii is a state always behind on things. It can take over a month after release or longer for Hawaii to get any at an Apple store or even wireless carriers.

Same here in Norway, (although not months, only a few weeks) until the iPhone 7 where Norway was in the list of countries getting the iPhone on day one
 
Let me know if I have any of the time zones wrong here and I'll update. It can be a little tricky with daylight savings in different places, but hopefully I've got an accurate list.

Guys. If you cannot stay up all night. Call Apple. Tell them you can’t stay up all night. Give them some lame excuse. Like you got to work early, got an early class. Got the s****s from something you ate. Be creative. They will bump you up. Don’t take no for an answer. Tell them how loyal you are. Tell them you know Tim. Persistence is key.

Also a tip for next week. Delivery drivers aren’t allowed to accept bribes in the form of cash. But alcohol on the other hand, will get you your phone before anyone else. It’s important to buy the driver something nice. None of that cheap crap. Just some tips from an old vet...
 
Not the best idea. These are not world phones. The US model supports some LTE bands only used here and missing one that is used in Europe.

I see no difference in band support compared to the german sheet. Not talking about CDMA version of course
 
Can you pre-order and have it delivered to a store? I will be in Chicago on the 21st would like to get the phone there.

No. But you can have it delivered to the FedEx warehouse. That's the best option. If you have it sent to your house then you have to wait until they get around to you during the day. If you have it held at the local warehouse, you can go and pick it up right at 8am.
 
Will this time-frame apply if you want to pre-order through a network carrier, like Verizon? I pre-ordered my iPhone 7 Plus the day it came out, but not at the exact minute it released. I'd like to do that this year.
 
What do I need to do if I am coming from Android and I want to sign up for iPhone Upgrade Program plus switch carriers? When I try and join the program now, it wants me to download the App on my nonexistent iPhone to get preapproved.
 
Guys, I just tried to pre-order an Apple Watch 4 and I couldn't - it said no availability. Does this mean the preorder has sold out?

Something tells me you’re just going to be able to walk in and grab on of these from anywhere...
 
haha how can I order the China Dual Sim version to be delivered in another country? :rolleyes: Wishful thinking!
 
What do I need to do if I am coming from Android and I want to sign up for iPhone Upgrade Program plus switch carriers? When I try and join the program now, it wants me to download the App on my nonexistent iPhone to get preapproved.

You’ll have to do things manually on the website or at the store I think.
 
How is it after all these years that US East coast is still screwed into waking up at 3am to preorder? This has and continues to suck.
