Well folks, the latest and greatest iPhones are finally here, boasting a number of awesome new features as well as a snazzy new design. Apple launched three new iPhones this year, including the premium iPhone X, and the continuation of the standard iPhone line, the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.

If you’re looking into getting a new iPhone, but don’t want to lose an arm and a leg paying for the iPhone X, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus may be up your alley. Both are excellent and capable phones in their own right. But how can you get your hands on one? Here’s everything you need to know about pre-ordering and ordering the new iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.

If you’re one of the many people who don’t want to buy the iPhone through a carrier, you’ll be able to get it unlocked from the Apple website just like before. You will have to pay full price, but Apple does offer financing options to help you out.

The standard iPhone 8 starts at $700 for the 64GB version, while the iPhone 8 Plus starts at $800 for the same storage size. Pre-orders will open up for the devices on September 15, while a full release for the phones is scheduled for September 22.
