Some buyers arrived in the early hours of the morning, while others spent the entire night waiting. The rush highlights the continued excitement around Apple’s latest Pro models, particularly among customers who upgrade their iPhones every year.<h2>Buyers arrive hours before Apple Stores open</h2>At the Apple Store in Select Citywalk Mall, Saket, Delhi, a rush of customers gathered early in the morning.&nbsp;Huge crowds were also seen outside Apple’s Jio World Drive store in Mumbai.
