AirPods Max Pre-Order / Order / Delivery Thread

[Pheaded]

Hi, i'm thinking of buying APM spacegrey, but they are out of stock everywhere en Apples shipping date is between feb 24th and march 2nd. Does anybody have tips how to get them faster?

Read more of this thread. Last few pages have hints about how to potentially get SG in the US.

Yes, the consensus around here is - if you want them fast, watch target.com and get them there, or find them at your local Apple store.

Thanks! should have added that I live in The Netherlands and unfortenatelly Target.com does not ship to The Netherlands.

I’m holding out for Sky Blue via Apple (currently scheduled for a Feb 25th - Mar 11th delivery window) but if Pink becomes available at Target...

ETA: I’m lying. The more I watch unboxing/review videos the less I like the shade of Pink on the headband; which looks orange.

SG currently available on target.com

EDIT: Gone

Green Airpods Max available for in-store pick up at the Apple store near me~

My 6th Jan delivery arrived today after it dispatched yesterday. Overall, I'm pretty please with my promotion present.

The band is more of a dark pink orange... the cups are pink, but more reminiscent of the Rose Gold from the iPhone 6/6S series. Was gonna grab the wife a pair at the Apple Store near me, but she opted for the blue instead.

Nice.

So the shade of Pink looks really different in person, I take it. (I can’t find a single video where the color combo looks appealing and I liked Rose Gold). But the shade of the headhand is the deal breaker, so I’ll just stick with my Sky Blue on preorder.

I think the pink looks nice, actually... those, blue, and Space Gray are the top options, imo. I don’t know what the hell they were doing with the green, and I don’t think the white headband on the silver is going to age “gracefully”.

Just happen to check Target.com this afternoon and found an SG pair at my local store. Wasn't even planning on getting these, then saw one show up and swooped in. I'm weak. That was the only pair in any color.

Check Target periodically. They release stock throughout the day, but you kind of just need to be lucky. Their shipping is fast too.

T-mobile s*** the bed with this one. Still no update, ordered Dec 24th. I really wanted SG but oh well, at least I got a pair to listen to.

I used the Apple Store app to check my local store. I started checking on 12/15 and finally nabbed a pair on 12/24 at 9:00AM for pick up later that same day. Be persistent and patient.

I had originally bought silver but returning due to ear cup getting dirt easily, found SG ones at AT&T last Tuesday, originally 3-5 day shipping. Delayed till 1/28/21, then just got an email that they shipped and will be delivered tomorrow!

Anyone been able to pick up a pair at an Apple store around Portland, Oregon? I can only do apple store because of gift cards, and I’m debating on whether to just order for February delivery. I think my chances at express pickup are slim.. been trying for about a week now.

Just gotta keep a window open and check. My local one finally showed pickup about two days before my target order came.

Finally i found the SG available in a local store here in Greece as my order from amazon is still in pending status. Delivery set for 11 January.

I ordered mine on December 22nd (German AppleStore), should be here between February 23rd and 1st of March. Space Black AirPods Max.

 

[andymallins]

Well my Sky Blue arrived this morning (ordered a couple of hours after orders went live).

Setup easy, build quality awesome, sound great and love the crown and button controls.

So far no rattles or condensation !

I ordered a blue pair from Best Buy on 12/22 when they were accepting orders. As of a day or two ago, I am now unable to make changes or cancel the order, but status still says " getting it ready." So no clue here...
