iPhone 7s Release: 5 Things to Expect & 4 Things Not To

Expect iPhone 7s Stock to Sell Out

There's been a lot of chatter about iPhone 8 stock shortages but we haven't heard much talk about the iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus. That doesn't mean they won't sell out.

In fact, we fully expect some iPhone 7s and iPhone 7s Plus models to sellout before their release date later this year. 

You can expect the cheapest options at popular carriers like AT&T and Verizon to sell out quickly. The cheapest options offer the least amount of storage space. 

Last year we saw iPhone 7 Plus stock get wiped out quickly and we expect to see iPhone 7s Plus stock sell out faster than the 4.7-inch model. 

In 2016, Apple stores completely sold out of all Jet Black iPhone 7 models and all iPhone 7 Plus models (all colors) and shipping times were pushed back several weeks. 

If you want an iPhone 7s Plus in a popular color (Gold or Black) or storage option, be prepared to pull the trigger on a pre-order. Otherwise, you could be waiting until October, November or longer for the phone you want.
