Apple's new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max models are now being delivered to customers worldwide following the pre-order period that began on **Saturday, September 12**. For those who didn't pre-order, there's now a **3-4 week** wait time for iPhone 18 Pro Max models across all storage options and colorways in the U.S. Demand has been less strong for iPhone 18 Pro models, but you're still looking at a **2-3 week** wait for any configuration. However, delivery or in-store pickup at select Apple Store locations on launch day is still an option.

As of writing, Apple's online stores in the United States and Canada haven't yet been updated to show pickup availability, but there could be shortages for some configurations, though there could be some variation state by state. In the U.K., all iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max configurations have shipping estimates running into the first and second week of October, respectively, but same-day pickup is still available in many regions. Apple Stores in Australia, China, India, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, South Korea, Türkiye, and the UAE are also offering same-day pickup options.

To order a product with Apple Store pickup, add the product to your bag on Apple.com or in the Apple Store app, proceed to checkout, select the "I'll pick it up" option, enter your ZIP or postal code, choose an available Apple Store location, select a pickup date, and select a 15-minute check-in window. Payment is completed online, and a valid government-issued photo ID and the order number may be required upon pickup. The iPhone 18 Pro starts at **$1,199** and the iPhone 18 Pro Max starts at **$1,299**.
