How to preorder the iPhone X, starting Oct. 27
Use the Apple Store app
By far the quickest way to preorder an iPhone over the past few years has been the Apple Store iOS app. With just a few taps you can complete the order and go back to bed. If the idea of using an app makes you nervous, it's OK!
Once the preorders commence on Oct. 27, launch the app (you may need to force close it beforehand to ensure it reloads properly), and order as you normally would. The app will also allow you to use your carrier's upgrade or payment plan, without forcing you to your carrier's website. It's all done in the Apple Store app.
Apple website
What was once a website sure to crash under the demand, the Apple Store website has been reliable the past couple of years. Start mashing the refresh button a few minutes before preorder time to get in as soon as possible.
Your carrier's website
With all major carriers offering the iPhone X, you can always try your carrier's website. It's a good idea to log into your account a little bit before the preorder goes live, and double-check that your payment information is current.
Retailers
Target will offer the iPhone X, with the current page listing stating preorders open on Oct. 27, as expected. Best Buy also has a preorder page posted, but it's unclear if it will take preorders or if it's meant for general availability on Nov. 3.
