re:

If you bought it from Apple online you can just return it to an Apple Store if you want too.

Can you exchange the phone for different colour or capacity?

re:

Yes but the stock might not be there, so if they don't have it they will refund you and then order one if you want to go that route. As long as it's within the 14 day return time.

Are you sure, because I was told you can't do that.

re:

If you are within your 14 day return period you can return your phone, then you can purchase another one. I did it with my 5S last year because I wanted a different color.

The official policy is that you can return online purchases an an Apple Store. Here's the [URL="https://www.apple.com/shop/help/returns_refund#mn_p]policy[/URL]. In this case, I don?t think the issue is the return, but rather it appears to be a matter of having stock on hand to handle the exchange. This is different from a warranty replacement where the stores have a dedicated supply of devices for warranty replacements.

I fully expect this to change back to what we have experienced as "normal" once the initial surge subsides, later in the year.

I think these 2 threads are different, that was can I exchange my phone for a different one, and this is about the online and retail store.

The exchange/return policy is the same.
