However, a number of users have started reporting that their orders now show earlier delivery dates than originally estimated.<\/p>\n<p>Users report iPhone Duo pre-orders now set to arrive earlier, particularly in Japan<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you ordered an iPhone Duo last week, there\u2019s a chance Apple has just moved up your delivery date\u2014especially, it seems, if you\u2018re in Japan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the weekend, a variety of iPhone Duo orders in Japan started getting pushed up to earlier dates than Apple originally estimated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/tobalog\/status\/2112107899812278452?s=61&amp;t=a-bloX1n-TZ50ofqhetO1A\" rel=\"nofollow\">here\u2019s a user<\/a> whose December date got moved up to October 23.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/dylanmcd8\/status\/2112084324329902082?s=61&amp;t=a-bloX1n-TZ50ofqhetO1A\" rel=\"nofollow\">collection<\/a> of similar reports found by 9to5Mac\u2019s Dylan McDonald:<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is unclear whether this change is going to start rolling out more broadly around the world.

It\u2019s possible the improved delivery estimates end up being errors that get reverted, but hopefully that\u2019s not the case.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So far the new dates appear limited to orders directly from Apple.
