Hi

Any advantage to space black AirPod Max?

I ordered the SB, but I am now having mixed feelings. My delivery is March 8 -22, 2021. I am concerned that canceling an reordering will add further delay.

so, are there any pluses to the SB?

thanks.
It's... just a color.

And yes, re-ordering now puts you at the back of the line, though I don't know how much worse it would be than March 8.

Who thinks these will ship FedEx like the Homepod Mini's? I have a feeling these might ship Fedex over UPS since UPS is known to be overwhelmed this year and made a statement saying "we arent but we are" whereas FedEx hasnt said that yet.

I hope they ship fedex and priority so we can actually get them launch day

Mine is afternoon but ill take it.

I've tried tracking by reference on fedex but it didnt work. Either the label isnt created or their system works different. I dont know what they put on the label that I can reference but i've tried order number, order number without last character, phone number. These usually work for UPS but not working for fedex
 
My order for the space gray from Best Buy still says “we’ll ship by Tuesday,” but the button to make shipping changes is now grayed out tonight so maybe they are getting ready to ship them imminently.
Mine says the same thing.. ordered the first hour orders went live. Hoping this isn't the case, as Best Buy can take 3-5 days to get it here with UPS snail mail. Specially with the holidays.
 
My 2 sets that were laser engraved that originally had a Dec 21st delivery date is now tentatively set for the 17th.

I wasn't able to order first thing that morning. I was not even aware of a launch until I was going through emails for work and scrolled past the words Airpods Max. I didn't even click the email, I just went straight to Apple. Got logged in through my veteran sign in, and placed the orders.
 
Mine just switched also. Really hope I love this Blue color. The Forbes article reviewed the blue and their images look awesome. Apple’s images never look real-life in my opinion.
