We haven't listed every time zone for every country, such as in Canada, Russia, and the United States, nor have we listed every available pre-order country, 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.

Reports detailing Apple’s iPhone 13 manufacturing preparations suggest that Apple has been taking steps to prevent launch delays. That said, it's best to pre-order the iPhone 13 model you want as soon as possible if you're aiming to get a new device on release day.

iPhone 13 pre-orders will be available on Friday, September 17 and all four devices will launch one week later on Friday, September 24. These dates apply to customers in the United States, Australia, Canada, China, Germany, India, Japan, the UK, and more than 30 other countries and regions.

All of the iPhone 13 models will subsequently be available in Turkey on Friday, October 1, followed by Malaysia, Mexico, South Korea, Thailand, and select other countries and regions beginning Friday, October 8, according to Apple.

I have gone through the get ready process and it says I’m ready after completing all the steps but after browsing away from the page I don’t see any indication anywhere on the site that I have prepared for it. Is this normal and will I be able to quickly preorder it tomorrow?

Edit: Never mind I found it in the Apple Store app
 
Preorder status - check
Payment information - check
Mailing address - check
Preferred Apple store (in the event I can pickup in-store) - check

Now, the wait begins...

It's funny (in an awesome way) that so much anticipation and excitement happens for the iPhone release. I also bought the new 256gb iPad mini 6 which is also arriving on the 24th, and my level of anticipation is... nada.
 
Kinda glad the early polls are showing fewer people (at least here and similar sites) are not opting for Gold 13 Pro models. 😁 Let's go!
 
Just put a brand new larger-than-default 3210mAh £30 battery in my iPhone X so nah.

Nothing really appealing whilst latest tech is still evolutionary, may change my mind when revolutionary.

Was it really needed to list Guernsey and Jersey separately, even though they are they same (BST) time zone as the UK?


I guess millions of MR readers in Channel Islands shouldn't be ignored 😆
