The standard iPhone 17 did not sell out as rapidly as the iPhone 17 Pro Max, which experienced shipping delays on Apple’s online store just moments after preorders commenced, but it ran out of stock in the subsequent days. Apple has faced challenges in fulfilling demand since that time. By late October, Apple was able to enhance iPhone 17 supply in certain markets, yet three models continued to be out of stock in some areas. The first week of November delivered further stock enhancements, but the standard iPhone 17 remains unavailable in the U.S., parallel to the iPhone 17 Pro Max.
BGR has been monitoring iPhone 17 stock updates since the onset of preorders, providing shipping estimates every Friday. Our assessments on November 7 indicate that the iPhone 17 models are predominantly available across all the markets we’ve been tracking since September 12. As a reminder, we conducted the same inventory assessments supported by Apple’s local websites. We simulated the iPhone purchasing process for each of the four models, examining all potential color and storage variations. These checks rely solely on the information Apple publicly shares online. The shipping estimates appear on the iPhone order page in accordance with Apple’s internal stock management system, which is inaccessible to anyone else. Apple’s online store does not specify how many units are available for any particular market, meaning delivery estimates may fluctuate throughout the day.
