According to the shipping times for the Jet Black iPhone 7 Plus, Apple’s website has listed it as shipping in 6-8 weeks. What this means is that if you’re lucky, you will get it on the 1st of December at the earliest, If you’re not so lucky, you’ll be looking at a mid-December shipping and hopefully in time for Christmas.
While demand for the device is probably to blame for the delayed shipping, last we heard even Apple’s manufacturers are having a hard time producing that particular model, so combine that with the demand and you’ve got yourself a nice backlog. That being said, this is for Apple’s online store so there’s a chance that if you really wanted one today, or sooner than 6-8 weeks, you can try Apple’s retail stores or any of their authorized third-party resellers.
Alternatively you could always choose to get a different finish if you’d rather not wait. The matte black option isn’t looking too shabby either, we reckon.
