iPhone Duo Preorders Split 37% October and 39% November in 2,865-Response Poll

Summary
2,865 responses across X, Threads and Mastodon showed iPhone Duo delivery estimates clustering in the near term: 37% for October and 39% for November.
December accounted for 10% of responses and January 14%, suggesting Apple may be assigning December dates only where Christmas delivery looks highly certain.
Some configurations are already slipping beyond the poll options, with February 1 estimates appearing, while MacRumors reported some early-December estimates moving up to late November.
The pollster cautioned the sample is not representative of the broader market, though it may roughly reflect early adopters ordering a new $2,000-to-$3,200 iPhone form factor at launch.
