Hi mates! My status just updated, it's gone from "Processing" to hmmm I don't have the english keywords.. But basically the last step before "Shipped"? In french it says "En cours de préparation" (like they're packaging it? idk).. Does anyone know if it means my iMac has been built ? It said 3-4 weeks and tomorrow it'll only be a week of waiting. Thanks!

Thanks! That's also what I understand from it. I can't remember if the same happened for my other Apple purchases but I think so.

What's your order? Specific configuration ? It seems (good) but strange to go from 3-4 weeks to 1 week to me.. I chose the 16GB option and the magic trackpad instead of the mouse and that's it.. Idk

Card not charged yet!

What does 8/8 mean ? Hopefully you get yours sooner as I've seen many people do!

Now let's wait and see what happens i guess ?

Oh 8/8 is about the graphic cores, just meaning I got the one with 4 ports

Thanks and hope you’ll have yours soon too!

Oh okay! Thanks mate!

Edit : my iMac just shipped! Should receive it this thurdsay (august 19). My original order window was sept 7 - 14!

Very very pleased with this. Maybe I'm just lucky. Looking forward to testing out this beautiful machine, and excited to see all the improvements it has over my previous late 2015 Fusion Drive 27 iMac!

That's good news. I hope I get mine earlier than the current estimate, too. :)

Yes! I was very pleased ! The package is still in Shanghai and is supposed to arrive thursday august 19. My original delivery window was actually my vacation dates so I chose the iMac to be delivered at my parents'. Turns out it's so early that I will have to visit my parents this week after work to get my iMac even tho I'm gonna be home ?

Mine shipped today from Ireland. Expected delivery is still 25 aug but I hope it will change once UPS updates the tracking.

Wow, sounds like you've all done well!

I ordered mine on 12 August and it's still processing, which is to be expected. Still showing as expected 8 Sep - 15 Sep.

Just ordered a silver m1, 16gb ram 1tb hdd for 1600 (refurb plus military) I am pretty excited. I bought one from costco for 1500 a few months ago, 256gb 8gb and blue. I decided I wanted to try silver for more professional look. arrives monday! ordered a track pad too because I hate mouses

highly recommend checking the refurb store though if anyone hasn't shipped, they just got put on there.

Ordered Silver on 14th August.
8-core CPU with 4 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores, 8-core GPU and 16-core Neural Engine.
16GB unified memory.
512GB SSD storage.
Delivery 10th - 17th September.
I'm so excited! I've waited long enough to save up for it, what harm can another 4 weeks do? It's got me hyped seeing people say they received theirs earlier than first estimated though.
Do you usually get an email or text update once your order progresses from 'processing'?

Shipped early today via UPS. Still in China as of now; UPS says it’ll be delivered Wednesday and Apple says Friday.

I decided to give up on my Sept 2-10 that hadn't moved out of Processing yet...my local Apple store right down the street had the 512GB version in green in stock for same day courier delivery, so I cancelled my order and ordered the local one. It was delivered and set up within 2 hours of my order. I gave up the extended keyboard (which is what was slowing everything down) but I'm fine with it. It's all set up now and I'm in love!!
