Those of you who order the 16GB or 64GB version of the iPhone 6 Plus via Apple's online store now have a shorter wait before the phone reaches your doorstep.
As of Thursday, Apple's website showed a ship time of one business day for these phones that boast a 5.5-inch screen. That estimate is down from 1 to 3 business days earlier this week and 3 to 5 days last week.
Sounds good, but what if you're looking for the 128GB version of the 6 Plus? Well, you'll have to wait a bit longer.
The ship time for the highest capacity model of the 6 Plus now stands at 3 to 5 business days, down from 7 to 10 days earlier this week.
Apple's website shows a wait time of 1 to 3 business days for the 16GB and 64GB versions of the iPhone 6, the same estimate as earlier this week. But the 128GB edition is now available to ship in 5 to 7 days, down from 7 to 10 days earlier in the week.
The latest ship time estimates reveal that supplies of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are quickly catching up with demand. In an investors' note released this week, Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster said he expected 100 percent availability of the new phones at this point. Last year, supply of the iPhone 5S reached demand in early December.
In an investors' note released on Friday, Huberty said that iPhone demand is above expectations at this point.
The firm's AlphaWise Smartphone Tracker, which analyzes sell-through data for the phones, pegs demand for the new iPhones at 67 million units for the December quarter. That forecast jumps past Morgan Stanley's estimate of 62 million units and a Wall Street consensus of around 63 million.
