Pre-Order Delays for New Apple Hardware
Apple recently announced new Apple TV 4K and HomeView devices, with an official launch date set for November 13. However, pre-order shipping times for these products have already begun to slip, with new orders now showing delivery estimates extending into late November.
Specific Delivery Estimates
For the Apple TV 4K (4th gen), new orders placed through the online Apple Store are quoting delivery between November 23-27. HomeView models in Silver and Starlight show November 20, while other HomeView colors still indicate November 13. These dates are for US addresses, though some zip codes may see slight variations, all generally beyond the official launch day.
Alternative Purchase Options
Customers seeking launch day delivery can still find the Apple TV 4K (4th gen) and HomeView available on Amazon, with delivery expected on November 13. The new Apple TV Siri Remote is also available on Amazon for launch day delivery. Additionally, in-store pickup at Apple retail locations might still be an option for launch day availability, even with online delivery delays.
Context of Other Releases
The HomePod mini 2, another new product introduced by Apple, is set to arrive sooner on October 30 and currently remains available for launch day delivery directly from Apple. The extended shipping times for the Apple TV 4K and HomeView suggest that early demand is high or initial stock is constrained, potentially leading to further delays as the launch date approaches.
