Apple announces when you can start the iPhone Duo pre-order process

Apple says shoppers can save color, storage, carrier and payment choices ahead of the Oct. 16 pre-order launch.

  • Apple announced that customers can begin the iPhone Duo pre-order process on Monday, October 12, four days before official sales start. This early window allows users to save preferences in advance.
  • When Apple launches a major new model, it typically offers a 'Get ready' window for customers to make selections in advance. The company confirmed it will do the same for the upcoming iPhone Duo.
  • Reddit users reported that the pre-order page allows customers to pick finish, storage, trade-in options, financing, AppleCare coverage, and a preferred carrier. The 'Continue' button remains greyed out until the window opens.
  • By completing selections ahead of time, shoppers can minimize potential hiccups on Friday, October 16 and improve their chances of securing launch day delivery. This preparation streamlines the checkout process.
  • Official pre-orders go live at 5 a.m. PT on Friday, October 16, with the iPhone Duo scheduled to start shipping on October 23. The 'Get ready' process will likely remain available through October 15.
