Apple TV 4K and HomeView pre-order delivery times now delayed until later in November

Apple this week revealed new Apple TV 4K and HomeView devices that won’t be available until November 13. But pre-order shipping times for these products have already started to slip until the end of November for new orders.

Apple’s new products won’t launch until November 13, but delivery times are already decreasing

If you’re on the fence about buying a new Apple TV 4K or HomeView, now might be a good time to make a decision.

Both products will ship in almost a month, with November 13 being the official launch date. But after pre-orders opened earlier this week, delivery times have already started to decrease.

New Apple Online Store orders now show the following delivery estimates to my US address:

• Apple TV 4K (4th generation): November 23-27
• HomeView: Silver and Starlight models say November 20others on November 13

Checking other zip codes in the United States, some addresses may be delivered earlier than the dates above, but they are all showing dates beyond November 13th. However, in-store pickup may still be available for launch day, even if deliveries are delayed.

Alternatively, you can currently still order from Amazon for launch day delivery:

Since launch day for these products is still very far away, it’s likely that Apple’s pre-order shipping dates will start to move back even further in the coming weeks.

As a result, you will want to receive your orders soon. The only new product introduced this week that still offers launch day delivery from Apple is the HomePod mini 2, which arrives earlier on October 30.
