September 24 is in Australia and New Zealand, meaning the official day to launch the iPhone 13. Customers in New Zealand and Australia always get their hands on new equipment due to time zone differences.
The PiPhone 13, PiPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max are now coming to pre-ordered customers on Friday, September 17th. This is iPad launch day and customers who have ordered an iPad Mini 6 or a. IPad 9 will also receive that equipment.
There are no Apple Paul stores in New Zealand, so Australian customers are the first to be able to purchase a new iPhone or iPad at a retail location. The in-store stock available in Australia will give you an idea of what to expect in other Apple Paul stores around the world.
Today’s iPhone 13 and 13 Mini orders will not be delivered until mid-October, while some iPhone 13 Pro models are delayed until the end of October. For that reason, in-store shopping may be the only option for those who have not pre-ordered but hope to wait a month for a new device.
