You Can Now Set Up Your iPhone Duo Pre-Order - Do It Before Friday

What happened

Apple has opened its "Get Ready" service for iPhone Duo pre-orders, allowing customers to pre-select a variety of options to streamline the process of ordering and have a better chance of grabbing one on launch day. The iPhone Duo launches on October 23, while pre-orders go live on October 16 at 5 a.m. Apple is a software and consumer electronics company based in Cupertino.

It also lets you confirm your carrier status, choose your accessories, pick an AppleCare+ plan, select a trade-in, add a payment method, and set a shipping and billing address. Rather than turn up on the day, however, Apple encourages customers to take action before then and increase the chances of securing their preferred model on day one of sales.

Get Ready is an option available on Apple's online store and in its Apple Store app, and it lets you select a preferred color and capacity ahead of time. Get Ready is really helpful because when pre-orders go live, it allows you to essentially perform a one-tap order.
