AppleInsider has great news today for anyone who was hoping to snap up an iPhone X on launch day, November 3, as Apple has announced that there will be a limited number of iPhone X units available on the day for walk-in customers. However, in possibly the understatement of the year, Apple says that anyone hoping to walk out of an Apple retail store on November 3 with an iPhone X is “encouraged to arrive as early as possible.” The retail stores will open at 8 a.m. local time on the day, with pre-orders kicking off this Friday, October 27 at 12:01 Pacific, 3:01 a.m. Eastern.

iPhone X will be available in over 55 countries and territories on November 3, including the U.S., the U.K., India, Qatar, Romania, Mexico, Italy, and Japan, to name but a few.

Pricing starts at $999, or £49.91 monthly via the iPhone Upgrade Program, which also throws in AppleCare+. You can also trade in your smartphone (provided it meets the eligibility criteria) for up to $375-worth of credit.
