Telekom, Vodafone & O2: Pre-order iPhone 7

The pre-order phase starts on Friday, September 9th. Until then, you can already subscribe to the various providers in waiting lists. However, this works somewhat differently for each provider:

• You can pre-order the iPhone 7 from Telekom on the following website. Fill out the form and you will be placed on the waiting list. As soon as the pre-order is possible on Friday, you will receive a notification by email. You can then decide whether you really want to order the device in a binding manner.
• It is similar on the Vodafone website and when pre-ordering O2. The pre-order starts at 9 a.m., you will also be informed by email. You will not be placed on a waiting list until then.
• If you do not want to buy the iPhone 7 together with a mobile phone contract, you can also pre-order the smartphone directly from the manufacturer. On the following Apple website, the pre-order also starts on Friday, September 9, at 9:01 a.m.
