14 DAY TRIAL // The time has finally come for us to be able to pre-order the iPhone 7 and the second-generation Apple Watch, so if you live in the United States, just head over to the Apple Store to reserve yours.
As Apple announced earlier this week during the official press conference that witnessed the introduction of the iPhone 7 and the Apple Watch Series 2, pre-orders for the new models will start on September 9 at noon, so the Apple Online Store has just started taking orders.
What’s important to know is that shipments will begin in exactly one week from today, so you’ll have to wait 7 more days until getting your hands on the device.
iPhone 7 and Apple Watch 2 pricing
As for pricing, it varies by country (and in Europe, the iPhone 7 is very likely to be super expensive, given all the taxes), but in the United States, the 4.7-inch model costs $649 for the 32 GB version, $749 for 128 GB, and $849 for 256 GB. If you want the bigger iPhone 7 Plus, it costs $769 with 32 GB of storage, $869 with 128 GB, and $969 with 256 GB.
The Apple Watch Series 2 starts at $369 in the United States for the standard model and the Nike+ version but goes all the way up to $1,249 for the awesome ceramic version that’s also available in white.
At the same time, you can also order the first-generation Apple Watch that’s benefitting from some upgrades, including the new chip that’s part of the new model. Pricing for this overhauled model is $269 in the United States.
It appears that Apple won’t be disclosing the first-weekend sales of the iPhone 7, which is somewhat surprising, given the fact that the company has been doing it for many years now, but it anyway expects a busy few days now that pre-orders are available.
We’ve already seen users who claim that they cannot access the Apple Store, most likely because of the huge traffic, but everything should be working fine if you hit the refresh button a few more times.
