iPhone X release day is finally here, here’s what you need to know

The Jolt Journal (https://www.joltjournal.com)

The day many of you iPhone lovers have been waiting for is finally here. Those of you that were lucky enough to pre-order the iPhone X last week and had delivery for today will finally get it. Now, for those of you that want to try and find the iPhone X in store, we will give you the necessary information you need to try and get it.

Before we start, it’s important to note that you shouldn’t set any expectations. Finding the iPhone X on launch day will be very hard, nearly impossible. It’s expected that some major flagship carrier stores will have the iPhone X’s on-hand, but it’s unlikely that every wireless carrier store will get some inventory. That can be said for Apple Store’s as well. Don’t expect to just walk in there and get the iPhone X. You will most likely see large lines that could dry up the store’s inventory before many even get a chance to get into the store.

Supply chain for the iPhone X is still constrained. Even though production for the iPhone X is in full swing, don’t expect to find an iPhone X on launch day. Many readers have reached out to The Jolt Journal telling us they have seen shipping time improvements, some as many as 2-4 weeks. So this does give us some hope that Apple is running everything at 100 percent to get your iPhone X to you before the holidays.

If your local Apple Store runs out of iPhone X stock, then head out early Saturday morning and lineup, because inventory is coming in on a daily basis.

Now let’s go over some details of the iPhone X. Here’s how much the smartphone costs:

  • iPhone X 64GB: $999
  • iPhone X 256GB: $1,149
