U.S. customers can get a head start on pre-ordering the new iPhone 17 lineup by using the Apple Store app or Apple’s website to select their desired model, selecting their preferred payment method — including pre-approval for financing — and saving their shopping bag so they’re only one click away once pre-orders open tomorrow.
If you’re going to chance it on launch day, be ready to order as soon as pre-ordering begins, as we’ve seen in previous years, supply of each model is always uncertain, often leading to popular models selling out within hours or even minutes.
Check your bank account and credit card balances, as the iPhone 17 starts at $799, the iPhone Air begins at $999, the iPhone 17 Pro starts at $1,099, and the iPhone 17 Pro Max starts at $1,199. However, most U.S. carriers are offering discounts. You can also opt to take advantage of Apple’s iPhone Upgrade Program, as well as its trade-in program options.
Pre-orders open on September 12, and orders will begin to be delivered to customers one week later, on Friday, September 19.
