Apple will kick off the iPhone 17 series pre-orders from September 12 with deliveries set to commence from September 19. If not sure about pre-ordering one, you have the option to pre-book, too

Apple launched the iPhone 17 series, alongside Apple Watch Series 11, Ultra 3, SE 3, and AirPods Pro 3, on September 9. All products will be available for purchase starting September 19. However, the option to pre-order them will begin at 05:30 pm on September 12. 

 

Notably, Indian retail chain Croma has announced that consumers will be able to pre-book the new iPhone 17 models, starting tomorrow, exclusively by walking into their nearest Croma store and paying a fraction of the full price. Additionally, pre-bookings of the newly launched Apple Watch Series 11, Ultra 3, SE 3, and AirPods Pro 3 at Croma stores are live now.

Amazon, Flipkart, and Vijay Sales show “notify me” and “coming soon,” respectively, when searched for iPhone 17, suggesting that it might also soon start taking pre-orders for the same. 

 

Vijay Sales displays pre-order message on its website, with a fill-in form available to register user interests.

 

Surprisingly, Amazon India has the baseline and Pro models listed with notify option, but the iPhone Air is missing, even if you search it through.
