Didn't Pre-Order iPhone 18 Pro Yet? Here's How Long the Wait is Now

iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max pre-orders began today in the U.S. and many other countries. If you have yet to place a pre-order on Apple's online store, you might face a longer wait now, depending on your desired configuration.

The first customers who pre-ordered right when pre-orders began at 5 a.m. Pacific Time today will have their device delivered on Friday, September 18 launch day. As of 8 a.m. Pacific Time, though, select iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max configurations on Apple's online store in the U.S. are now showing delivery estimates into October for new orders.

Apple Store pickup may still be an option for launch day depending on the model.

Inventory will likely continue to tighten for both delivery and Apple Store pickup as the day progresses, so order quickly if you are planning to.
