Apple will begin accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max on September 12 at 5:00 a.m. PT, with deliveries slated for September 18.
Apple announced that pre-orders for its upcoming iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max will open on Saturday, September 12, at 5:00 a.m. Pacific Time. The company said the devices will be available for pre-order in multiple countries at the same time, and the first shipments are expected to begin on Friday, September 18.
Customers can use Apple’s “Get Ready” pre-order tool until 9:00 p.m. PT on Friday to select a model, choose a carrier and enter payment and shipping information in advance. Apple recommends placing an order as soon as the window opens for those who want a device on launch day.
The iPhone 18 Pro is priced at $1,199, while the iPhone 18 Pro Max starts at $1,299. U.S. carriers are offering discounts, and Apple promotes its Upgrade program and trade-in options to lower the effective cost.
"The Get Ready feature lets shoppers configure their order ahead of time so they can complete the purchase quickly when pre-orders launch," an Apple spokesperson said.
The announcement includes a list of pre-order times for various regions, though Apple notes the list is not exhaustive and advises customers to verify local times.
