Get Ready for the New iPhone 17 Series

If you tuned in to Apple’s latest event, or caught the live updates on social media, you’re probably aware that four new smartphones are set to hit the market: the iPhone 17, iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max.

While recent iPhone launches have felt somewhat predictable, the iPhone 17 series introduces some exciting innovations. The standard iPhone 17 boasts features previously reserved for the Pro models, such as a highly adaptive high-refresh-rate display. The iPhone Air claims the title of the slimmest iPhone to date, and both the Air and the Pro variants showcase a novel camera design that resembles a “plateau,” although the Air model is equipped with a single lens.

Although the excitement around new iPhone releases has waned, that doesn’t mean they’re easy to acquire. The new models will be available for purchase in retail stores starting September 19, but for the best chance of securing one on launch day, placing a preorder is highly recommended.

When Can the iPhone 17 Be Purchased?

Preorders are set to commence on Friday, September 12, at 8 a.m. ET (5 a.m. PT). You’ll be able to preorder the new iPhones from major carriers like AT&T, Boost Mobile, T-Mobile, and Verizon, in addition to ordering directly from Apple. If opting for Apple, consider utilizing their early preorder feature. This option allows you to gain pre-approval, confirm a trade-in, and personalize your iPhone before the official preorder goes live, helping you save time and enhance your chances of successfully ordering your desired model. Note that this early feature will only be accessible until 9 p.m. PT (midnight ET) tonight.

To preorder an iPhone tomorrow, several options will be available. Each carrier offers diverse promotions based on the selected model (including its storage capacity), the trade-in device, and the plan you choose. For the specifics, it’s advisable to review the fine print at the bottom of Apple’s sales page. If choosing to purchase through Apple, be informed that the carrier deals can still apply, which will be visible on each iPhone’s sales page.

Links to the various carriers providing iPhone 17 preorders can be found below, along with a simplified summary of each offer. Some have pages open for preorder browsing now, while others are waiting to unveil their information by Friday morning.
