At exactly 0:00 on September 27, retail systems officially opened for sale of iPhone 16 series. This year is also the first year since the iPhone 12 series went on sale at 0:00 instead of 6:00 a.m. as usual.
Right from 9 p.m., many retail systems announced to issue waiting tickets for customers to pre-order iPhones on the 20th, asking customers to line up in order to wait until 0 o’clock to receive the device.
At many systems such as Viettel Store, CellphoneS, TopZone, FPT Shop,… many customers lined up from 9 pm to receive tickets. Even at one system, the number of customers was too large, causing the waiting in line to be very long, until 3 am there were still “numerous” customers lining up just to wait to receive the phone.

A representative of the CellphoneS system said that this year is the first year after many years that the system is allowed to reopen at 0:00 a.m. Previously, iPhone 13, 14 and 15 were all on sale from 6 am. The number of customers queuing is so large that many customers are still determined to wait for many hours just to get their hands on a genuine iPhone 16 VN/A.

Mr. Tuan Anh, one of the first customers to own iPhone 16 Pro Max on the opening day, shared: “At first, I wanted to buy the Desert Titan color, but the consultant said that choosing the Natural Titan color would give me priority to receive the device as soon as possible with a discount, so I changed to this color. When I hold it in my hand, it feels much more beautiful than the Desert color.”
Tens of thousands of Vietnamese people buy iPhone 16 series
According to Mr. Nguyen Minh Khue, representative of Viettel Store, the system is expected to successfully return 16,000 devices to pre-ordered customers on the first day. The difference at Viettel Store is that this year at the Viettel Store office headquarters in Hanoi, this unit also makes returns for customers who pre-order through the two e-commerce platforms TikTok Shop and Shopee Mall.
“Viettel Store recorded 50,000 customers pre-ordering and 35,000 customers making deposits since September 20 until now. Customers who buy iPhone 16 at Viettel Store will receive incentives of up to 12 million such as: Enjoying privileges from the network selling the device, incentives for exchanging Viettel++ points along with innovative old collection policies and extremely attractive incentives for non-cash payments”Mr. Khue shared.

Similarly at CellphoneS, as of September 26, the system recorded nearly 30,000 interested customers and 10,000 customers who successfully pre-ordered the iPhone 16 series, an increase of nearly 70% compared to the previous generation. The most advanced device iPhone 16 Pro Max accounts for nearly 60% of total orders at CellphoneS. The special thing is that this ratio is improving better than last year, when Pro Max accounted for nearly 70% of the number of piles by 2023.
TopZone system expects to deliver more than 20,000 machines on the first day and 10,000 machines in the following days. Particularly at 2 TopZone APR stores in City. Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi recorded 3,000 devices delivered directly on the night of opening sale.

At Hoang Ha Mobile, this system delivered more than 300 devices to users on the opening night and is expected to return goods on the 27th. Orders at Hoang Ha Mobile recorded more than 15,000 orders. For Minh Tuan Mobile, the number of customers depositing phones according to the system’s share is 16,300 phones.
It is known that iPhone 16 Pro Max is still the best-selling model, with a rate of up to 91%, of which more than 85% of users who buy iPhone 16 Pro Max choose the new Desert Titan color, according to Hoang Ha Mobile representative. Other systems also have a similar situation, iPhone 16 Pro Max is always the best-selling version.
It is expected that on September 27, retail systems will continue to hand over devices to customers who have pre-ordered. For versions that are of little interest to users such as iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max in black and Natural Titanium, at some retailers, users will still be able to buy directly without reservation.
For customers buying on the e-commerce platforms Shopee, Lazada and Tiki, depending on the place of sale, there will be different delivery policies. Purchasing an iPhone on e-commerce platforms does not require customers to remove the activation seal when receiving the device like when buying at a retailer.
