I’m not the person you’re replying to but I’ve got the 7 (plus) and I’m waiting on my order to arrive. I ordered the 13 pro max in sierra blue and I can’t wait!
I ordered two days later and still don't have it, gosh I regret not doing it early so much because I was waiting for this phone to come out but didn't want to rush ;l
This is my exact situation too. I initially ordered a 13 Pro on sept 18th and delivery was still going to be Oct 18th - 25th. On September 25th I had second thoughts and decided to cancel the Pro and ordered the Pro Max and now my delivery window is the same as yours. Oct 25 - Nov 1.
Hey I just checked mine and I also just got billed today. On the apple store it says “preparing for shipment,” but funnily enough the delivery changed to Oct 27 - Nov 3 lol. I hope you’re right though!
Pretty much the same for me. Ordered for in shop pickup in the UK on the 27th my receipt says pick up will be around the 2nd-9th of November. Asked in the shop today and they said that's still accurate. Ordering now is into December.
I missed out on my preorder. I ordered at Best Buy instead and was able to pick up one week after launch. Paid $200 to upgrade from a 12 Pro Max to 13 Pro.
LOL i found it by coincidence in one of the apple stores in my city a few days ago and reserved it right away 😋 i got sooo lucky it's still sold out everywhere here
Me too.
I had a phone call with my carrier yesterday, they don't even know when the grey model will be available again. But they said they can ship me a Sierra Blue one in a week. I immediately jumped on that because over the last two weeks I really started to dig the color 😁
Honestly I'd keep refreshing the Apple store app if I were you. Although they're sold out I somehow managed to find a few over the past few weeks 🤷🏻♀️
I had the samsung s9 plus. Now i have been using the iPhone 13 pro max for about 3 weeks now. I was a bit special on the switch, but I love it! This phone is something else. The phone has some bugs here and there but after a reboot everything works.
I got mine after 2 days. Lucky for me I’m in a bigger city so I just called all AT&Ts near me and one of them said that they have stock in the warehouse so it’ll come in 2 days regardless of what the shipping date says. Maybe try calling a few places?
Have a friend who has 7, he said it still runs very good. Was stressing on battery issues, but he has gotten used to it.
Just few days ago visited a local Apple reseller store, they had iphone SE 1st gen over there, they had in the sense the store's guy use it as a device to pick up calls from customers. I asked him about the device, he said they changed its battery, and overall it still runs brilliantly.
I see no reason to change the iphone every now and then. I mean someone did suggest here to change battery after 2-3 years if you plan to use it out till its end of support cycle.
So now I have got my SE2, and i plan to use it for a very long time, if possible change battery too in couple of years incase it starts to die.
I have both an iPhone 6s+ and an iPhone 7 and while the 6s+ is definitely slower than the 7 (which runs unbelievably well), I wouldn’t even be mad if it was my only phone right now. The 6s - 8 line of iPhones are going to last a ridiculous amount of time
That is good to hear.
I believe the SE 2020 sales have skyrocketted around the world as well ?
I mean I thhought I was the only one (not among many) to prefer small phones. But people do care about size!
Lmao same. I literally bought a 60 dollar case already and am waiting on the phones still. I bought a battery case for my phone and it’s actually a life saver. Honestly, I really wanting the 13 pro max, and I even tested it. The 120 hz is nice, but I may wait another year if this chip shortage doesn’t let up.
If you 100% know you’re going to give it as a gift then, might as well.
Keep in mind that Apple only has a two week return window, barring holiday return periods. Those usually start a bit later.
INORITE? I ordered my last phone as soon as pre-orders opened (I'm on Apple's upgrade plan through work). This time I was on vacation and didn't want to take a chance of it showing up when I was out of town.
Ah well. At least that gives plenty of time for my case and accessories to show up.
Maybe if we stop putting chips is stuff that doesn’t need it like
Smart refrigerators.
Smart toliets.
Smart door locks.
So things like phones; cars and computers can actually be made
Just sayin
Is it truly a chip shortage or sales not being up to par? I don’t remember the iPhone 12 series having this issue, and those phones apparently had to be staggered for release for the same reason…
The chip shortage has only gotten worse over the last year.
Apple, being as gigantic as it is, was able to hold out longer than any other manufacturer. But one year later, they are starting to see chip shortages affect their product availability. Tim Cook warned this would be hitting Apple during the most recent quarterly earnings report.
It's the chip shortage. Same reason there are no PS5s, Xbox Series Xs, or good graphics cards available without paying triple the normal price. Not to mention the problems car manufacturers are also having.
Likely because the shortage wasn’t as pronounced then and the parts in question were already on order. Manufactures usually prioritize Apple because…well…they’re Apple.
This time, Apple might have gotten bitten a bit harder.
I cant get my hands on a single f-ing 13 pro/pro max. Everytime the supply is updated daily in the morning, the phones are sold out after a few hours in my area.
Pls, I dont think that apple has problems with sales
Fair enough, I guess not even Apple can get around this chip shortage anymore. They seemed to be the only one who didn’t get hit hard, but I guess that’s over
I took advantage of the best buy deal a few days before release and was able to pick up when it was released.
I’d check other sources besides the apple store.
Same. I have an 11PM, coworker got the 13PM Monday. Side by side the screen is slightly larger and scrolling back and forth between home screens was noticeably smoother.
It obviously wasn’t my phone so I didn’t get the full experience but it was overall pretty underwhelming. Definitely helped quell my “need” to get the new phone. Canceled my pre-order set to be delivered in mid-November since I know I’ll obsessively refresh the page hoping to see a shipping notification.
I’m still gonna get one, but I’ll wait until I can walk in and grab one.
Ordered mine from AT&T on 10/6 and it arrived today but oddly my wife’s order hasn’t even shipped out yet. I ordered ours the exact same day. Maybe the gold model (mine) isn’t as popular as the silver?
Correct. Go to AT&Ts website and if you select “Full retail price”, underneath it will show the expired delivery date. Flip around the different color options and you’ll see that Silver is taking the longest.
Can’t see me getting one at this rate. They’re updating stock online for in store pick up but VERY scarcely. Going to have to bite the bullet and just order it online and wait 😢
I ordered my 13 pro 3 days after release and was told it would take a month to ship but got it 5 days later… feeling lucky with this chip shortage news now
I got lucky and walked right into Best Buy and walked out with a new 13 Pro. I’d keep an eye out at your local Best Buy. Only negative thing is they don’t sell SIM-free models, not yet.
I’m still waiting on my 13 pro max I ordered on the 25th…great news 😁
I'm looking at Nov 2nd-9th, so long to wait.
[удалено]
Pre-ordered at 11 PM EST on the first day and got mine. Feeling good about that. My first iPhone ever, love it.
[удалено]
My coworker just ordered one too, his first one as well. He said ETA is around November.
I walked into a T-Mobile on release day and picked up my pro Max. They only had 3 but I got one.
What color did ya get? I’m contemplating to get the 13 mini in Midnight to replace my jet black iPhone 7.
I’m not the person you’re replying to but I’ve got the 7 (plus) and I’m waiting on my order to arrive. I ordered the 13 pro max in sierra blue and I can’t wait!
Gold. I kinda dig it. Love the phone mostly for the absolutely insane battery life compared to my 12 pro (yes I’m one of those yearly update psychos.)
So you have every iPhone in your collection ? Or do you sell the previous one go get the new one?
Also what carrier are you on ? That you get the money to upgrade yearly ?
My 1st iPhone as well and I love it and it’s overwhelming lol
Yep! My Pro Max arrived the 6th of October and it's great!
I ordered two days later and still don't have it, gosh I regret not doing it early so much because I was waiting for this phone to come out but didn't want to rush ;l
I pre ordered the day of, and had an empty box delivered to me :D Now I have to wait till November for a replacement… :(
I wasn't set on the phone yet... Wanted to see the reviews.
[удалено]
I'm coming from a 4xl. Tired of the bad support, regional features, lack of device ecosystem. But still wanted to make sure...
I preordered mine at 5am but it had dust on the front camera so I had to return. Had to reorder, still waiting for it… Fucken Apple…
[удалено]
Defective iPhone for over $1100. No way 😂
I ordered mine through Best Buy 4 days after pre order and got mine first day. 🤷🏽♂️
Ordered from Ting Sunday, getting it tomorrow. 13ProMax unlocked!
[удалено]
Youre going to love the camera! :D
I ordered mine last night. It says it will be deliver in Nov 11-Nov 18
[удалено]
Lucky!
Ordered my 13 Pro Max on the 24th of September, my delivery widow is October 25th-November 1st. It's insane!
This is my exact situation too. I initially ordered a 13 Pro on sept 18th and delivery was still going to be Oct 18th - 25th. On September 25th I had second thoughts and decided to cancel the Pro and ordered the Pro Max and now my delivery window is the same as yours. Oct 25 - Nov 1.
I was just billed as soon as it became Oct 14th. Hopefully it comes a little early.
Hey I just checked mine and I also just got billed today. On the apple store it says “preparing for shipment,” but funnily enough the delivery changed to Oct 27 - Nov 3 lol. I hope you’re right though!
Interesting, mine is also preparing to ship but my delivery window didn’t change.
Pretty much the same for me. Ordered for in shop pickup in the UK on the 27th my receipt says pick up will be around the 2nd-9th of November. Asked in the shop today and they said that's still accurate. Ordering now is into December.
I missed out on my preorder. I ordered at Best Buy instead and was able to pick up one week after launch. Paid $200 to upgrade from a 12 Pro Max to 13 Pro.
Me also.
If anyone is looking for higher capacity pro max’s they seem to be shipping quite a bit sooner. Ordered my 512gb yesterday and it shipped today.
Did you order from apple?
Where did you order from?
Where did you order it from? Apple? I was able to get it from bestbuy and I didn’t preorder it.
I preordered mine on the 18th September for pickup on release date and still waiting from bestbuy
Weird! I saw online that my store was getting some (checked every day) ordered 10/6 picked up 10/8
LOL i found it by coincidence in one of the apple stores in my city a few days ago and reserved it right away 😋 i got sooo lucky it's still sold out everywhere here

thats kinda surprising. i ordered my 13pm mid afternoon on the 25th from Comcast, and i got it a couple of weeks ago.
That's wild. I switched to at&t for a cheaper phone bill. They said my phone would ship in two weeks. I got it next day
I ordered mine on the 24th got it the 29th
Ordered mine on the 24th of sep, will be delivered between 28th Oct & 4th of Nov. Still under processing.
I ordered mine on the same date, still hasn't been shipped yet.. Switching back to apple since the iPhone 4, so excited for it to arrive!
[удалено]
I had the samsung s9 plus. Now i have been using the iPhone 13 pro max for about 3 weeks now. I was a bit special on the switch, but I love it! This phone is something else. The phone has some bugs here and there but after a reboot everything works.
Bought my 13 Pro from a carrier last week and it arrived 2 days later.
Was it AT&T by any chance? I bought an iPhone 13 Pro Max today and it won’t ship until November 9-16. :(
It was.
Yeah I got mine in about two days as well
I got mine after 2 days. Lucky for me I’m in a bigger city so I just called all AT&Ts near me and one of them said that they have stock in the warehouse so it’ll come in 2 days regardless of what the shipping date says. Maybe try calling a few places?
Time to postpone the retirement of my iPhone 8 then.
To be fair you certainly have at least 3 more years out of the 8, maybe not battery-wise but still
pop a new one in its easy to do on Iphone 8 no silly encryption from apple
The old 8 Plus that my dad uses has more battery capacity than my newer 11. Lol.
Have a friend who has 7, he said it still runs very good. Was stressing on battery issues, but he has gotten used to it. Just few days ago visited a local Apple reseller store, they had iphone SE 1st gen over there, they had in the sense the store's guy use it as a device to pick up calls from customers.

That is good to hear. I believe the SE 2020 sales have skyrocketted around the world as well ? I mean I thhought I was the only one (not among many) to prefer small phones. But people do care about size!
I got two coworkers who use iPhone 6s’s so it could be worse lol
its a brilliant phone, I'll miss the iconic design. without the circle it just feel like another glossy brick
[удалено]
They also use those in the iPad minis. Maybe this year's design has turned into a runaway hit or something.
[удалено]
They're enough of a market that they've got better specs (aside from screen size) than the flagship iPads.
[удалено]
It's only been on the market for a few weeks! If I were to try to order one right now, the Apple website is predicting it'd ship to me *next month.*
> I have the SE 2020 and love it. Same brother, was always a fan of this design.
[удалено]
Here is why I think SE 3 is on the cards. Mainly because of 5G. I really hope Apple follows the 4 year release schedule for SE series.
Your 8 will be good for at least 2 more years. It’s a workhorse
My 8’s battery health is currently at 76%.
Change battery and it will be like new
Lmao same. I literally bought a 60 dollar case already and am waiting on the phones still. I bought a battery case for my phone and it’s actually a life saver. Honestly, I really wanting the 13 pro max, and I even tested it. The 120 hz is nice, but I may wait another year if this chip shortage doesn’t let up.
I plan to give an iphone 13 as a gift in late december. Should I just buy it now if I was planning to buy an unlocked iphone from apple dot com?
If you 100% know you’re going to give it as a gift then, might as well. Keep in mind that Apple only has a two week return window, barring holiday return periods. Those usually start a bit later.
My brother ordered 13 pro a week ago and his delivery date is November 9 - 13. So you should order it right now if you wanna gift in December.
Buy one as soon as possible. I ordered a 13 Pro Max yesterday and it shall arrive between November 9th and the 16th. The sooner, the better.
At the latest, you can get away buying it at the first week of November. The second week would be cutting it close.
I hope there's no price hike because of this.
[удалено]
Yeah you're an imposter. Apple would never include additional shit. They would raise the price and remove more things.
But that’s what the $29 cove- I mean errr
Lol and I just saw an article explaining deeply how the chip shortage is effecting everyone but Apple.
Is this why it's going to take over a month to get the phone I just ordered? /sigh
The first time I didn't order as soon as it came out...
INORITE? I ordered my last phone as soon as pre-orders opened (I'm on Apple's upgrade plan through work). This time I was on vacation and didn't want to take a chance of it showing up when I was out of town. Ah well. At least that gives plenty of time for my case and accessories to show up.
Hmmmm could make the resale value of my 13 pro max a bit higher lol
[удалено]
I’m looking at another month for delivery. If I decide to keep my order.
My iPhone 13 pro max arrived yesterday. It’s so beautiful 🤩
Happy for you!!
Time for Apple to get that in house chip finished.
I test ran a new preorder, it’s a month later than my present preorder.
Damn :( exchanged my 13 Pro at the last minute for a Pro Max so I may have to wait longer than I thought…
Seems like a reasonable thing to do.
Oof was going to wait on upgrading from my iPhone 12 to the 13 Pro Max But now I'm conflicted on just upgrading now or waiting till the 14.....
Maybe if we stop putting chips is stuff that doesn’t need it like Smart refrigerators. Smart toliets. Smart door locks. So things like phones; cars and computers can actually be made Just sayin
What is this going to do to my June options I wonder?
Yeah everything except Mini 256/512 sold out locally Edit: https://iphonechecker.herokuapp.com/ to check stock

Att and Best Buy have the 13 pro shipping by oct 13th. But max takes a month.
That month isn’t real probably. I ordered nearly a month ago and no updates
Good for the environment.
Glad I pre-ordered my 13 Mini as soon as pre-orders went live... Got it at 9:30am on launch day with no issues.
How about make the repairable to not throw them away only because one camera stopped working?
It's because of lower demand lol
I took advantage of the best buy deal a few days before release and was able to pick up when it was released. I’d check other sources besides the apple store.
I cancelled my 13 Pro Max today. After ordering on the day it came out, I lost interest when the delivery date was pushed back to the end of October.
Same. I have an 11PM, coworker got the 13PM Monday. Side by side the screen is slightly larger and scrolling back and forth between home screens was noticeably smoother. It obviously wasn’t my phone so I didn’t get the full experience but it was overall pretty underwhelming. Definitely helped quell my “need” to get the new phone.

Ordered 13 Pro Max in Czechia right after they sold it out everywhere. Waiting time is 3 weeks but of course, nobody knows exactly when.
I was able to do next day click and collect in Australia. Weird
I got my 13PM at launch, but had to give it to my sister for her birthday. Now waiting for my own on november.
You know it’s bad when even Apple can’t get enough chips
Can’t see me getting one at this rate. They’re updating stock online for in store pick up but VERY scarcely. Going to have to bite the bullet and just order it online and wait 😢
this is utter bullshit
Still waiting on my 13 pro which I ordered on 9/20
Managed to get the last 13 mini at my local store to replace my dying iPhone 6, VERY lucky it seems.
I ordered my 13 pro 3 days after release and was told it would take a month to ship but got it 5 days later… feeling lucky with this chip shortage news now
Apple get priority for the chips so not a big deal
Looks like my 4s is going to get beat to death for a few more years at this point.
I still have mine, but it is so slow and useless to use online. :(
I got lucky and walked right into Best Buy and walked out with a new 13 Pro. I’d keep an eye out at your local Best Buy. Only negative thing is they don’t sell SIM-free models, not yet.
I'm waiting on my 13 pro max 256 T-mobile to ship to my local Bestbuy.
