Jio is also taking pre-orders for the new iPhones from September 21 to September 27 via its official website.

The unit will be shipped in 3-5 business days after the new models hit the shelves in India, i.e. September 28. All three storage variants - 64GB, 256GB, and 512GB - in Silver, Gold, and Space Gray colours are available for pre-bookings on the Jio site.
