Is there a way to pre-pre-order 2 iPhones at once? I need to order for my wife and myself and have never ordered through Apple directly before.

Actually best way is to use the Apple Store app on your current phone.
Whether its the app or browser - which page should we be refreshing on Friday morning? Refreshing the pre-order page? Or does the pre-order go into your "Bag" at 5:00AM PT and we should be refreshing the Bag page?

Once it goes live, I believe the best way is to go to the For You tab and load your pre-pre order.

Me too!! Which phone are you getting this year?
Actually my case isn’t coming until Friday now, bummer. I’m getting a graphite PM 256. I almost went with the blue but it’s just too pastel baby color for me. How about you?

Glitch is fixed and now showing "Come back to pre-order on 9.17"... hopefully this is the last hiccup and tomorrow will be smooth sailing! I'm so ready :D.

I'm not sure if this is the best way, but I was able to do it by "pre-pre-ordering" mine via the app and my wife's via the website. Now both of them appear on my Apple Store app as ready to go for tomorrow.

Same here. I’m getting the Graphite PM 512 GB. Which one you getting?
Silver PM 256gb; I'm still in love with this color, especially since I don't use a case--e2e screen protector only. The 12PM was my first experience with the Silver iPhone and I think I'll stick with this color for a while.

Nice!!
I was hoping they have more of a matte black option, but graphite for a 2nd year in a row for me.

Still deciding between going Max this year or staying with the regular size(had Plus/Max for 7 and XS series, went regular for X, 11, and 12 Pro). It'll be 512gb and Silver for me though otherwise.

First time preordering through Apple. 13 PM 1TB Graphite. I'm just worried about UPS being the point of failure with deliveries, as I've had some terrible problems with them in the past, and I have travel plans on 9/25.

I also have a case and a MagSafe charger arriving today, not that I'm getting excited or anything...

Yep, after you setup one pre order there is a link in the app to "Get another iPhone ready for pre-order"

Agree on the blue.. went with graphite also ?? . Was hoping for black like rumors was saying but never happen
Graphite will go with any case color choice (around the camera opening). I’m way too clumsy to not use a case. I ordered this color…..

Depending on where you live in relation to a UPS Center, you could always have it held there and pick it up... There have been times that it arrived but was delivered the next day by local truck.

Also some may be shipped via FedEx....

I always liked the Saddle leather color with sliver/grey/graphite phones.... I don't use a case now, but did order a Saddle magsafe wallet.

After a few months you'll get some nice wear marks and "patina" (darkening of the color), a broken-in feel.

I use Apple Leather Conditioner (not related to Apple) on these as well as leather watch bands.

I may have to do that. I wish it were possible to preorder and just pick it up in a store. I have 2 different Apple stores within walking distance, but the UPS distribution center is a $45 cab ride away.

Well I enjoyed the tracking last year for iPP 12 Max and AW S6, but will forgo the fun this year.

Enjoy everyone! And may all your shipping notifications be accurate and on time!
Alright I lied, and talked myself into a iPP 13 Pro Max. I checked my battery health and its at 90%, not terrible but if Apple is offering $790 for it that means I spent $300 this year for my 12....

Sure it's a never ending cycle....oh well :D
