If you're planning to pre-order at 5:00 a.m. Pacific Time, make sure to double check your country's page to confirm the time and date when you can pre-order.

 

[filmantopia]

I call first dibs.

Hi Macrumors. Quick correction, Adelaide is only 30 minutes behind Sydney & Melbourne. That time you mention is Darwin.

 

[funwithstuff]

Was just going to say the same thing re Adelaide's timezone. Also, Brisbane's pre-orders start at 11pm tonight (Friday).

 

[slippery-pete]

I plan to stay up all night. Few of my buddies and I will do Zoom calls. Should be exciting for sure.

Should be fixed, sorry about that!

 

[TheDailyApple]

This is the first time I decided to get an iPhone on launch day. This will be fun.

 

[Homme]

When you find out that for my home city (Sydney) it’s is midnight instead...

well luckily I’m not preordering them and certainly if i was not at that time slot lol

 

[Lozza013]

Should be fixed, sorry about that!

All good.

 

[LegCortex]

Do these times apply to AT&T, Verizon, etc., as well?

Leather cases mentioned at the end of the article.

MacRumors, you don’t need to announce to the world the order times. I prefer if most people stay asleep. The last thing I need is for my fellow forum members to get in the way of my mini. Stay out of my way and no one has to get hurt.

 

[44267547]

Leather cases same time?

Once Apples site goes ‘live’ again, everything is available, including accessories.

 

[G.McGilli]

How does it work?

Do you configure it on their site ahead of time with the options you want - then keep refreshing until finally, the 'Continue' button is available?

Or do you have to wait and start once the pre-order time has passed?

 

[Techwatcher]

Wish folks already had HomePod Minis to review.

The former.

That’s a really good point. I second this.

If you’re in the app, does it refresh itself when preorders go live, or do you need to close and reopen it?

Is it better to try ordering through the Apple store app or the Apple website? Any tips to try to ensure a smooth and fast transaction?

 

[KrispE00]

How does it work?

Do you configure it on their site ahead of time with the options you want - then keep refreshing until finally, the 'Continue' button is available?

Or do you have to wait and start once the pre-order time has passed?

 

[puckhead193]

I hope it isn't a disaster.

 

[nathan_reilly]

Apple used to have me itching to buy the latest tech from them. But maybe everything got so good I just stopped wanting to upgrade it? Used to have the latest and greatest but now even old apple tech is just fine for me.

 

[Traisoon]

While iPhone 12 mini and Pro Max pre-orders are launching in more than 50 countries and regions on November 6, certain countries, such as Colombia and Malaysia won't be able to pre-order until November 13.

Correction: Malaysian can pre-order from Apple Store for all 4 models on November 6.

 

[MadDog31]

If you’re in the app, does it refresh itself when preorders go live, or do you need to close and reopen it?

I second this question.

I'm ready to use the app because I have a thousand gift cards I need to use on this purchase, and using the app appears to make this a lot easier since they're redeemed cards in my Wallet and not in my Apple ID balance. I also have an Apple ID balance, but that can be automatically applied everywhere.
