Apple’s latest iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro series, the Apple Watch Series 8 and SE (2nd gen) are now available for sale in India, in authorised retail stores as well as online.

It should be noted that Apple’s Store still shows pre-orders for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro series.
Apple’s Online Store is still showing a four to five weeks delivery timeline for the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max, so if you were planning to upgrade to either, you might have to wait for some time before the new iPhone Pro gets delivered to you.

The Apple Watch Series 8 also has a four to five weeks wait, while the SE has a seven to 10 days delivery period. For the iPhone 14, Apple’s website shows a one-day delivery time for this.
