How to get an iPhone Duo
Not tips from a forum: what 761 iPhone Duo restocks we have watched at Apple Stores actually show.
1. Be flexible about the model, if you can
Some versions come back far more often than others. The ones we have seen restocked most:
- 256GB Star White: 248 restocks
- 256GB Night Sky: 142 restocks
- 512GB Night Sky: 121 restocks
Watching two or three versions instead of one gives you more chances at the same store.
2. Watch the stores that restock most
In the US, these Apple Stores have had the most iPhone Duo restocks we have seen:
- Aventura, Aventura: 20
- Barton Creek, Austin: 10
- The Falls, Miami: 6
- Valley Fair, Santa Clara: 6
- Brickell City Centre, Miami: 6
If one of them is within reach, add it next to your nearest store. Big flagship stores get stock more often, and they also sell it faster.
3. Know when it tends to land
63% of the restocks we have seen land between 8 AM and 11 AM, store time. Full restock history →
4. Be ready to move in minutes
A typical restock stays available for about 60 minutes before it is gone. 99 of the restocks we have seen sold out within 20 minutes. Have your Apple ID signed in and your payment method saved, so reserving for pickup takes one minute, not ten.
5. Let an alert do the checking
Refreshing the Apple Store app by hand misses most restocks: they come and go while you are doing something else. Store Pickup Alert checks your chosen stores for your exact model all day and tells you by push and email the moment one has it.
