iPhone 6s and 6s Plus Availability and Popularity

Jonathan Benito

The tech world is buzzing with news about the new iPhone 6s and 6s plus. Whether you're an Android fan disproving the new phone's success or an Apple fan cheering your team on, the pre-orders for the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are pouring in. As early as now, Apple Insider reports that the Rose Gold option is very popular among early iPhone buyers. Are there still stocks available for pre-order so you won't have to queue on September 25? Let's take a look at the popular US carriers and find out.

AT&T

Pre-ordered iPhone 6 and 6s Plus are still available on the website. The shipping date for the rose gold option is set three to four weeks once ordered, suggesting a that there's already a scarcity in stocks. There's also a glaring disclaimer that it's still subject to change. If you choose the less popular colors like space grey, silver and gold, you can get it a day earlier than the general release date. The basic iPhone 6s 16GB has a retail price of $649.99 without a contract.

Sprint

Sprint is not as transparent with their stock compared to AT&T. They listed all colors for the iPhone 6s as all available on September 25 but you will be contacted if there are no stocks available. Meaning, you will only find out if you pre-order now. Sprint also has a limited offer from now until December 31 to trade in any smartphone and have your monthly rate reduced to $15.00 until your next upgrade.

T-Mobile

According to our interactive chat with a T-mobile agent (Jennifer), who was very courteous, says that all models and make are available for shipping on September 25. We specifically asked for the stock status on the Rose Gold option and she assured us that there are stocks available for purchase online. It's likely that customer service reps are the last to be informed once a stock runs out so the validity of this information depends on how much you trust the source.

Verizon

The company is openly accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 6s and 6s plus and with all of the colors but does not disclose the delivery time frame. According to their terms, the items will be shipped once stocks become available. The online chat function has a rather long queue so we were unable to ask specifically about the stocks. Currently, there are no special offers on the site, apart from the standard data packages and an option to add phone security features.

As expected, Apple is succesful in marketing their latest device and it would come to no surprise if there's still a long queue at the Apple store come September 25. From the data we've collected, the Rose Gold option is dwindling and it's only a matter of time before it runs out. Currently, pre-orders are available only to the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand and Puerto Rico. Other countries are expected to follow within the next few weeks.
