High demand for iPhone 15 have already slipped into November

Dan Uff September 15, 2023 0

According to Mark German of Bloomberg News, if you haven't pre-ordered your iPhone 15 yet and plan on getting up early to pre-order it, you may have to wait until November to get it, as estimated pre-orders are already out suppling demand.

According to Mark:

The Pro Max, which starts at $1,199, saw its first deliveries slip from Sept. 22 to as late as Oct. 16 just minutes after pre-orders began at 5 a.m. in California. Delays affected all colors of the model — blue, natural, black and white — and most storage capacities.

The delayed timelines are impacting home deliveries, while many of Apple’s about 270 retail stores in the US still have day one availability for in-store pick up. China is seeing shipment delays of four to five weeks already for the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

The Pro Max starting price is $100 more than last year and the clamoring for pre-orders suggests Apple’s pricing strategy isn’t losing it customers.

The standard iPhone 15 Pro with a smaller screen is seeing more limited delays, affecting the natural titanium model in some storage capacities. The lower-end iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models aren’t immediately showing delays on Apple’s website.

Here's how:

From the device's main screen, select SETTINGS.

The update can take anywhere from 30 - 60 minutes. Do not interrupt the process once it begins.

Walt Disney Co. has held exploratory talks about selling its ABC network and TV stations to local broadcaster Nexstar Media Group Inc., according to people familiar with the discussions.

The talks are preliminary and haven’t involved a specific valuation, according to one of the people, who asked not to be identified because the discussions aren’t public. Nexstar would only be interested at the right price.

Media mogul Byron Allen, who owns a string of TV outlets, has also had discussions with Disney about an acquisition of the network and its stations, according to another person, who was familiar with his involvement.
