On September 12, 2023, Apple commenced pre-orders for its new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max models in Canada, with orders beginning at 5 a.m. PT (8 a.m. ET). These pre-orders introduced a range of configurations, with the iPhone 18 Pro starting at a price of $1,749 CAD. In addition to the Pro models, Apple will also launch the iPhone Duo on October 16.
Carriers such as Telus, Koodo, Rogers, and Fido are set to offer these devices, with some pricing variations. Reports indicate that while the iPhone 18 Pro is available for the outright price set by Apple, other carriers such as Rogers, Bell, and Telus are charging approximately $50 more for the same device.
As the pre-order period opened, some configurations of the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max began to sell out quickly, indicating significant demand for these new models. Availability checks showed that the iPhone 18 Pro was still widely available for launch-day delivery, while certain other configurations were facing delays. The first shipments are expected to be delivered to customers and made available in stores starting September 18.
Consumers interested in purchasing these devices can expect a variety of colours, including Burgundy, Glacier, Silver, and Black, alongside storage options ranging from 256GB to 2TB. The keen interest around these releases underscores the ongoing popularity of Apple's flagship devices in Canada and highlights the competitive landscape among telecommunications carriers for best pricing and availability.
