As rumoured a few days ago, Apple has decided to give a head start to iPhone Upgrade Program customers when pre-ordering the iPhone X. The handset will officially be available for pre-order in the United States this Friday, but if you are currently signed up for Apple's iPhone Upgrade Program, you can start the pre-order process.

Ahead of the iPhone X release, many US carriers are offering various discounts. Sprint offers customers savings of $350 on the iPhone X through the Sprint Flex hardware leasing program, Verizon will be offering customers up to $300 off the iPhone X also with a trade-in, while T-Mobile will sell the iPhone X for $279.99 down and $30 monthly payments for 24 months.

Apple will ship out to early customers and hit store shelves on November 3.
