Early adopters in Australia, New Zealand, and parts of Asia are receiving orders for the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max on launch day, as customers begin lining up to purchase the same devices.
Apple fans are starting to line up outside of Apple’s flagship stores as sales of the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Max begin. In many areas, the turnout is not as great as Apple’s iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro launch in October, but ranks are building nonetheless due to coronavirus security measures.
As usual, shoppers post photos of the new phones on Twitter, Instagram, and other social media. Users are also posting photos of launch day scenes at Apple Store locations in Australia, Japan, and Hong Kong:
The iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max are scheduled to launch globally on Friday. Due to concerns about the pandemic, Apple is limiting the number of customers allowed in its stores and has made contactless delivery easier in many regions. In the US and Europe, the company has installed “express” experiences similar to those of bank tellers in some stores to limit lines and encourage social distancing.
