The iPhone 17 Series is available in various stores that have Apple Authorized Reseller certification, one of which is Digimap. This device can be purchased throughout Indonesia.

Compared to the previous generation, the launch of the iPhone 17 Series this year received greater attention according to GM Marketing Apple Business PT. MAP Adiperkasa Zone Farah Fausa Winarsih. The number of pre-orders (POs) of its devices is also said to be increasing.

"We opened the PO a week ago, yes, and this year the public interest is extraordinary," said Farah when met at the Digimap Grand Indonesia Store on Friday, October 17. "In terms of launching period, this is arguably the fastest."

Digimap opened the first pre-order on October 10. The handover of the first device was carried out within one week, much faster than the release of the 16 series. This also happened because everything needed for the launch of the iPhone 17 had been fulfilled.

"In terms of all of the documents, licensing, everything, we can finish it as soon as possible. Finally, we can launch the product as soon as possible," explained Farah. "In terms of timing, it's really fitting, really on-time."

Farah also revealed that this year's pre-order is far more than the previous series. Most likely, this is supported by the late iPhone 16 series in Indonesia.
