Apple rolled out its newest iPhone at 8 am local time today around the world and photos from Apple Stores across Asia, Australia, and Europe show lines of people quickly building up outside.
The lines are an established tradition, with would-be iPhone buyers hanging around for hours — even overnight — to be among the first to get their hands on a new model.

Here’s a shot of the queue in Berlin on Friday morning, showing consumers huddling in front of an Apple Store with coffee and blankets:

Apple unveiled three versions of the iPhone 11 at its annual keynote in September– the iPhone 11 itself, the iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max.

In the US, the iPhone 11 starts at $700, while the iPhone 11 Pro begins at $1,000 and the base price for larger iPhone 11 Pro Max is $1,100.
