Prospective iPhone 15 buyers can use the Apple Store app to select their preferred phone, confirm their status with their carrier, add accessories, choose an AppleCare+ plan, and add a preferred payment method ahead of when pre-orders go live. Payment in full and other payment options are supported.

iPhone Upgrade Program members are able to select their iPhones and complete pre-approval steps like checking upgrade eligibility, securing credit lines, and confirming shipping details.

The "Get Ready" feature is designed to allow customers to pre-order their iPhones with the tap of a button to make the purchasing process quicker.

The iPhone 15 is priced starting at $799, while the iPhone 15 Plus is priced starting at $899. The iPhone 15 Pro is priced starting at $999, and the iPhone 15 Pro Max is priced starting at $1,199. After pre-orders take place on September 15, a launch will follow on Friday, September 22.

"Get ready"? I'm so tired of the Apple gaslighting on this stuff. People who are going to buy this thing at 5 a.m. on Friday knew they what they were going to buy after the end of the webinar today. An no USB-C cable with the phone?
Wot.

Explain how the term ‘Get ready’ is an example of gaslighting.

Of course there’s a cable in the box. When have iPhones not come with a cable?

There is a cable included. It’s a one-meter cable with USB-C on both ends.

There is no charging brick, as has been the case for a while.

As for the “get ready,” it’s helpful to have all the options chosen and—for those applicable customers—pre-approval for the iPhone Upgrade Program, all set and ready for order.

I set mine up and added an alarm for Friday morning.
