Starting today, Vietnamese customers can secure their new iPhone 16 series models through pre-orders, with deliveries scheduled for September 27. Apple Store Vietnam officially launched the pre-order window at 12:01 AM on September 20, allowing customers to reserve up to two units per product without any accompanying promotions.
Simultaneously, authorized local retailers have also begun accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 16 series, including the iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max, often accompanied by more attractive promotional offers compared to the official Apple Store.
