iPhone 15 delivery dates are delayed! The countdown to the iPhone 15 release has begun, and eager Apple fans are gearing up for the latest technological marvel. The question on everyone’s mind: When can you get your hands on the high-end iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max models?
The answer may vary depending on where you choose to make your purchase.
Ordering frenzy
If you haven’t placed your iPhone 15 order yet, you might want to prepare for a bit of a wait, especially if you have your heart set on specific colors and storage options. We’ve gathered the latest shipping information from various sources, including Apple’s own website, Best Buy, Verizon, and AT&T, to give you the lowdown on when to expect your precious new device.
iPhone 15 delivery date: Apple Store
If you’re planning to pre-order your iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max directly from Apple, brace yourself for a wait. The estimated delivery dates for these flagship models are as follows:
- iPhone 15 Pro: October 3 – October 24
- iPhone 15 Pro Max: October 17 – November 14
That’s a minimum of two to three weeks for most and up to six weeks if you’re looking for a lighter-colored model. While natural, blue, and black options have estimated delivery dates between October 10 and 17, white models will arrive between October 12 and 24. The 256GB Pro versions in blue and black offer a bit of relief, with delivery expected between October 3 and 5.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max in blue or black is set to arrive between October 17 and 24, while white and natural models won’t ship until November, with estimated delivery dates between November 7 and 14.
Exploring other retailers
If patience isn’t your strong suit, you might find quicker satisfaction at other retailers. However, ordering from Apple has its perks, as you can choose your storage option, color, and carrier while also adding Apple Care Plus coverage, which isn’t always guaranteed elsewhere.
iPhone 15 delivery date: AT&T
Over at AT&T, iPhone 15 Pro buyers can expect the blue model to arrive as early as September 22. Some storage configurations, such as the 256GB and 1TB for natural and 128GB and 256GB for black, also promise launch day delivery. Other options will have you waiting until at least September 25, with some, like the 128GB and 512GB in white, extending that wait to October 9 – 23.
For iPhone 15 Pro Max enthusiasts, all blue and white units will be in your hands between September 25 and October 9. However, patience is key if you’re after a 1TB Pro Max in natural or black, with estimated delivery dates in the last two weeks of October.
iPhone 15 delivery date: T-Mobile
T-Mobile offers an optimistic outlook, with the majority of iPhone 15 Pro models available for delivery on launch day. The exception here is the White Titanium option, which will arrive between October 4 and 10. For iPhone 15 Pro Max, the Blue Titanium color option takes the lead with a September 22 arrival date. Natural and black models are expected between October 4 and 10, while the wait for white units could stretch from October 11 to November 6.
iPhone 15 delivery date: Verizon
Verizon promises September 22 delivery for most Pro units in blue and black (except the lowest storage option). The 128GB Black Titanium model and the two lowest storage options in Natural Titanium are set for a September 29 arrival. The remaining natural and white options will arrive no earlier than October 6. As for the Pro Max, only the Blue Titanium with 1TB of storage will land on September 22, while the rest will follow between September 29 and October 13.
iPhone 15 delivery date: Best Buy
For those who crave the shortest waiting period, Best Buy is the answer. All blue, natural, and black iPhone 15 Pro units are expected on launch day. White models, however, require a bit more patience, with a September 26 delivery date for the 512GB and 1TB models. Some models, like the 128GB Pro in white and all storage options for the white iPhone 15 Pro Max, seem to be currently unavailable for pre-order on Best Buy’s website.
In the Pro Max lineup, blue and black models are set to arrive on September 22, but only in the lower storage options. The 1TB Pro Max in those colors and the Natural Titanium option are expected on September 26. If you’re eyeing the 128GB Pro Max, you’ll have to wait until September 29.
In the world of iPhones, anticipation often goes hand in hand with delayed gratification. Depending on your preferences and retailer of choice, you might find yourself enjoying your new iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max sooner rather than later. Whether you prioritize color, storage, or simply getting your hands on the latest tech, there’s an option out there to suit your needs.
Happy iPhone hunting!
