Apple got slammed with pre-orders for the iPhone Duo<\/a> \u2013 the demand outstripped supply so badly that shipping dates around the world were quickly pushed back to January 22<\/a>. But maybe the wait won\u2019t be so bad as multiple users are reporting that their shipping dates have been pulled forward.<\/p>\n

If you have pre-ordered the iPhone Duo, have a look at the estimated shipping date \u2013 you may be in for a pleasant surprise.<\/p>\n

Ray Wong of Gizmodo says that many X users from Japan are seeing the initial November\/December shipping estimates be pulled forward all the way to October 23 \u2013 that\u2019s the official launch date for the Duo.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just Japan, though \u2013 in a thread on r\/apple<\/a>, multiple users are also reporting faster shipping times than initially planned. One user says their order was pulled forward by two weeks<\/a>, going from December 2-9 to November 17-24. A couple of other users saw the same thing<\/a>. Some jumps are even bigger<\/a> \u2013 from January 25 to November 24 for one user and from January 25 to November 16-23 for another user<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Not everyone is so lucky, however. For some, the shipping date hasn\u2019t moved<\/a> from the initial estimate. And there are worse cases too \u2013 one user says that their November 30 estimate was pushed back<\/a> to December 7.<\/p>\n

So, have a look at apple.com or wherever you pre-ordered your Duo from. For what it\u2019s worth, Apple\u2019s online store still shows a shipping date of January 22. We also had a peek at some US carriers \u2013 AT&T<\/a> is showing December 3, Verizon<\/a> says December 4, while T-Mobile<\/a> estimates December 29-January 6.<\/p>\n

\nThe iPhone Duo ships only with a USB C-to-C cable<\/p>\n

Again, this isn\u2019t specific to Japan, the US or just one region. It\u2019s not specific to just one carrier\/retailer either. Maybe Apple found a way to boost production or maybe the initial inrush of orders wasn\u2019t as big as it first appeared. Either way, you may get to hold Apple\u2019s first foldable sooner than you expected.<\/p>\n
