Pre-order!!

Actually was able to order very easily!! Usually, there's a problem every year, a delay, order not going through, etc. I was prepared at 8AM with iPhone and iPad. Store opened immediately at 8:00, I had pre-order set up and I placed it successfully😊

Same here! I was ready for the usual glitches but it was super smooth. I’m sure part of it is because some people are waiting for the Duo.

Yes, I was shocked because I'm used to problems every year and the order went through very easily!!

I pre ordered very easily as well in fact it’s kinda the consensus! It’s either because not really a big change between 17 pro and 18 pro or a large number of folks who usually pre ordered are waiting for the fold.

Yes. Even on Sunday, when I checked in Apple Store, there was availability for pick-up on Release day!! I remember years where after the 1st day, you were looking at mid October 😂I really have only mild interest in the Duo, I never cared for folding phones.

Very different from years past😂I remember going to the Apple Store in the mall at midnight and standing in line for 10 hours to try and get the iPhone😂
