why will my iPhone 14 pro max take 4-6 weeks to ship?

I preordered a iPhone 14 pro max 1tb on preorder date at 8:30am, when I was ordering the information was that all preorders for the iPhone 14 pro max model would ship on the 16 but I got an email saying my order would take 4-6 weeks to ship. that's bull**bleep**, what's the point of preordering than? I relied on the info on the site to make my purchasing decision and the info was all crap!!!!!!!!!!

        I'm aware of the situation that's happening at Foxconn in China, it's a sad for all the workers. This order was placed before any of this was happening. I also know a few people who ordered their Iphone14 pro max after my pre-order and received it by now. I've always had good service from my Telus provider until now.

  • I ordered my 14 pro max Oct 3, got confirmation email Oct 4 then received an email from Canada post (not telus) saying shipping label was created 2 weeks later. I received the phone on Oct 27. It was almost a month from the day I ordered it to the day I received it. It will be worth the wait fam I promise 👍!
  • UPDATE: I just received my iphone 14 pro max. I placed the order Oct 4 and received it Oct 27, shipped with Canada post. I believe they are now in stock so people should start checking there emails for shipping info👍

      I ordered an iPhone 14 Pro Max a few days ago through Telus on the 29th, I hope it only takes less then 25 days like your order

        Have you had any update on your order? I ordered mine on Oct 24th and have had no updates, and no one seems to know anything about when it can be expected.
  • went to Telus and did the preorder my order went through 15 min after the order opened and I had still not received any info saying that I had the order or any details the only way I know I have it is because the Telus app says it’s on there, I called yesterday and I was told my phone was coming end of October and it was not a guarantee, I ordered a 14 pro max 256gb, I’m really pissed about this, I what is the point of doing a preorder if you won’t get the phone on time

      As I mentioned in the other discussion on this topic, Apple is the bottleneck. Even ordering directly from Apple has a minimum 6 week wait for just the base 128GB 14 Pro Max.  Apple is still giving a 6 to 7 week estimate (31 Oct. - 7 Nov.) currently. The regular 14 Pro 128GB is only slightly better with a shipping estimate of 24 Oct. - 31 Oct.

  • What email did you get that stated 4-6 weeks? I got my order for a 512gb pro max completed at 8:21am ET and never got any email stating delivery time. I’ve also emailed the online store and have yet to get any reply back. Essentially I have no idea what’s going on and it’s crazy they are not telling anyone anything. Also, if I click into my order status all it says is order processed and the odd part is the date placed keeps chatting the current day. Crazy stuff indeed.
  • My order was delayed for a good hour and a half on the Apple website and the only way I got around it was by navigating another way.  By the time I got my order it, I was up to the beginning of October.  So who knows. Sorry yours is delayed.  Mine is too.
