On Wednesday, February 19, 2025, Apple unveiled a newcomer to its range of iPhone:l’iPhone 16e. The latter presents itself as the successor of the iPhone SE of 2022 by taking up many characteristics at the iPhone 16 published in September 2024. With a lower price and some more limited specificities. See in particularOur iPhone 16th vs iPhone 16 comparisonTo fully understand the positioning of the new smartphone.

As usual, the launch of the machine was planned in two stages. First there is the opening of pre -orders. This one will be done today, at 2 p.m. French time. Then there is the outing in store also corresponding to the time of the first deliveries. These two events will take place on Friday, February 28. A week of pre -order, a classic scheme for iPhone launch at Apple.

Release from the iPhone 16th: two dates to remember

• Friday February 21 at 2 p.m.:Opening pre -orders
• Friday February 28:First deliveries and store outing

Let's see together what are the points to know about the iPhone 16th to be sure to make the right choice, to order without wasting time and thus receive your due quickly, without risking seeing the deadlines lie down because of limited stocks.

How to get your iPhone 16th at the earliest and at the best price?

Today, therefore, from 2 p.m., you can pre -order the iPhone 16th. And as for any purchase at this price, we would like to be delivered quickly. It is therefore good to remember that several parameters can fluctuate the delivery time:

• The finish chosen:A finish can be more successful than another, and therefore potentially melt stocks faster
• Storage capacity:As with finish, certain storage capacities will see their stock leave faster

The iPhone 16th is available in 2 finishes, black or white, and 3 storage capacities, 128/256/512 GB.

According to our data on the previous pre -orders of iPhone, the black color should be the most popular of both. For storage, the 128 GB would logically be the quantity most often chosen by buyers. If you want the iPhone 16th in black and 128 GB, you may quickly see your delivery time getting longer if you do not place order among the first.

Finally, another parameter that may have its importance: the merchant chosen. Some are faster than others, with sometimes the choice of express delivery, for a supplement.

Note in passing that by choosing to buy your iPhone 16th from a third -party reseller like Amazon, Fnac, Darty or Boulanger, you avoid the main way that is the online site of Apple,an often saturated path since it is privileged of buyers.

Going through other channels can help you on the one hand get your hands on the desired configuration, on the other hand, to see it arrive at home faster. And then, we remind you, you have nothing to lose since theguarantee is the samethat if you buy the iPhone directly in Apple Store or from the Official Apple website.

Our guide to succeed in pre -order

This is the case for each new iPhone freshly launched: to receive its purchase in the first hours of the first day of availability in stores from the iPhone 16th, you must be among the very first to validate your order today.

There are 3 preparations that you can set up to make your purchase in a quarter of a second, and ideally, before everyone else!

1 - Choose your iPhone model long before ordering orders: You don't have time to hesitate when adding an iPhone 16th to the basket! You have to know now the storage/finish duo you want. It may be wise to keep in mind a second choice, if the first choice turns out to be very popular and already displayed with extended deadlines

2 - Increase your bank card limit: We tend to forget it, but his CB can sometimes make his own, especially in the event of large sums spent. It is therefore better to take the lead now and go check, and even increase the ceiling of your bank card, at least temporarily, to allow the big expense that you are about to make

3 – Take the lead from the merchant: You can now identify yourself on the merchant site on which you are about to order and even already between your customer information. It is indeed a good way to anticipate the purchase. Fill a maximum of information and pre-register a payment method. Thus, as of pre -orders open, you have optimized everything to limit the number of actions to be carried out before validating the purchase

And if not everything goes as planned,

If your connection or another setback made you lose a few precious seconds, note the delivery time announced for the iPhone 16th added to the basket at the chosen merchant. At first, see if the delay suits you. Otherwise, change finish and/or storage capacity quickly. At the same time, go to other online sales sites to see the deadlines they indicate and change the creamie if necessary.

Finally, if unfortunately you have failed to pre -order your iPhone with an acceptable delivery time, everything is not lost.You have the Apple Store solution left. Go to the day of the release of the iPhone 16th,Friday February 28, in store, from the opening or even before to be among the first to go to the checkout. There may be a queue. But with a little luck, you can leave with your new iPhone 16th in your pocket. It's up to you to see if you are ready to wait wisely in front of the shop one winter morning to put the odds on your side.
