AirPods Max Pre-Order / Order / Delivery Thread

[wherewuz]

My confirmation from Apple on apple order page says Arriving 15th, but the Fedex page says arriving 17th

Same boat, shipping to Connecticut.

Apple says shipping tomorrow 15th, DHL says December 16th here in Sweden.

Only "Shipment information received" on DHL's tracking. From Eindhoven Netherlands.

Oh, just noticed the Apple Store app shows December 17th. So i got three different dates now

 

[Norre8]

According to my FedEx account I've got an apple shipment arriving tomorrow, my apple status still says preparing to ship, fingers crossed.

It will change, mine just moved to Shipped

How do you see FedEx shipments to your address? I made an insight account but it’s asking for an account number I don’t have.

The apple order page gives tracking numbers once shipped

Shipped

Anyone in the UK seeing anything other than PTS?

I'm sat at PTS, but "Arrives Thu 17 Dec". Whats the likelihood these will ship tonight for delivery tomorrow?

See they're now listed on Amazon UK, Currys and John Lewis - presumably this will be the usual 8am launch tomorrow for John Lewis.

yes - mine has been shipped; engraved coming from China. In the air, I’ve moved the UPS delivery date to tomorrow, let’s see if it arrived.

The Airpods Max are actually made in Vietnam. Usually, Airpods releases are fulfilled directly from Apple's US fulfillment center in Lebanon Tennessee. You'll normally only see shipments directly from China with iPhone pre-orders.

Nope - mine's from China

Check in-store availability tomorrow and authorized resellers. Not much else you can do aside from that.

yeah it's just wild that after 24 hours of contemplation of "should i get it or wait" has turned into 12-14 weeks of a wait

I agree, I was surprised how fast the dates slipped.

Pro-tip: when in doubt about a hot item, just order it. Apple has a pretty painless process to return/cancel an order.

Remember to update to iOS 14.3 everyone!

Are you in the UK?

With new Apple product releases it's usually order first, think later. That way you would at least have reserved yourself a unit while you contemplate the purchase. You can always cancel or return the order if you decide not to get the product in the end.

Australia here and they released stock for in store pick up at 6am local time. Picking mine up after lunch today YAYYY

Only space grey and silver available though but the other colours look too flashy for me anyway

 

[madhu1989]

I ordered mine a little late, although i was still able to place the order just in time for delivery between 12/15-12/17. But my order has not shipped yet. I am not sure if I would receive it tomorrow.

To those of you who were able to track their shipments before receiving the shipping confirmation email - what reference number did you use to track using FedEx/UPS? In the past, I have used the phone number associated with the order but that didn't work when I tried now.

Thanks in advance!

Just 25% off for Apple Employees? Any limits on how many?
