Increased interest and anticipation for the iPhone 17 leads to prolonged waiting periods throughout Asia due to high demand
Apple's latest smartphone offering, the iPhone 17 series, has made a grand entrance, causing a stir worldwide. The series, which includes the iPhone 17 Pro, Pro Max, and the ultra-thin iPhone Air, marks a significant design overhaul, the most substantial since 2020.
The iPhone Air, a departure from Apple's traditional design language, places ultra-thinness at the forefront as its main selling point. Alongside the new iPhones, Apple also unveiled the Apple Watch SE, Watch Series 11, Watch Ultra 3, and AirPods Pro 3.
The iPhone 17 series was released globally on September 19. However, demand for the Pro models has been so high that Apple has had to delay deliveries in some countries, including Vietnam and Switzerland, with deliveries now expected in October. This delay particularly affects the iPhone 17 Pro Max and certain colours of the iPhone 17 Pro models.
The popularity of the Pro models is evident, with record pre-orders across Asia. This high demand has resulted in wait times stretching for weeks in many Asian countries. In Thailand, Apple Store ICONSIAM was packed with customers who had pre-ordered the iPhone 17.
The launch event at Apple Store ICONSIAM was a festive occasion, with Apple staff applauding and warmly welcoming customers, creating a sense of community. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, with their aluminum frames and redesigned back covers, have captivated the market, contributing to the excitement surrounding the iPhone 17 series.
The iPhone 17 series promises to be a game-changer, with its sleek design and innovative features. Despite the delivery delays, it's clear that Apple's latest offering has struck a chord with consumers, making it a hot commodity in the tech world.
