wow! that sucks. My 2018 Air is nothing like that. The display is crisp and clear with no backlight bleed. Hope my new 2020 that's coming on Monday is perfect as well. Crossing fingers. So did you order another one to replace the returned one?
Got a tip for us?

This laptop is taking a big toll on my mental health. Constantly refreshing UPS app and website 10,000x a day hoping for an update and seeing people in same shipment as me getting Louisville scans whereas I’m still stuck in #AnchorageGang. Tonight’s gonna be a looooong night with the anticipation of a departure scan.
Just got an arrival scan in Jamaica NY for my NYC #ShanghaiGang order. Still showing a Monday delivery when it’s so close 😔
It's so weird. Everyone was clearly bundled together - and yet 🤷♂️
This is actually Fedex, and I do have the app. This doesn't mean it leaving China is imminent, though?
Add me to the list. Ordered a 1 TB 16GB space grey M1 MBP on Nov 11th. Original delivery window was Nov 27th - Dec 4. New delivery window is Jan 6th - 13th. Haven’t received an email from Apple yet even though the delivery window changed around 10am EST.
A follow up on my post #2863 from yesterday.
At 1341 today I called FEDEX again to see if there had been any progress in finding my MBA. I was told that the problem had been sent “upstream” for priority processing, but to expect a delivery date of 7 December.
At 1350 I checked FEDEX web site and it showed 7 Dec delivery date, but also showed on the vehicle for delivery today. OK, maybe some chance it will show today.
1400 I was going to the post office and happened to look on the front porch, where I saw my MBA! Brought it inside and then checked the FEDEX tracking which showed it had been delivered at 1318. No knock, doorbell, or request for the required signature. They just left it on the porch.
I’m relieved that it arrived in good order. A day late, meh - not a big deal. The issue was concern that it had been reported delivered somewhere else and that it might be gone.
Data updates from the drivers to the head shed are not instantaneous, but I found it somewhat ironic that at the time I was on the phone with FEDEX the MBA had been sitting on my porch for nearly a half hour.
Happy it is here!
For the rest of you, my 16gb/1tb MBA was ordered November 10 and arrived Dec 4, if that time frame helps.
Hang in there!

I ordered a M1 MacMini with 16G of memory and 1TB of SSD yesterday. Apple says Arrives Jan 12.
Hopefully it will come sooner. This give me a lot of time to decide what display to get for it.

Ordered an MBP 16GB / 1TB SSD on November 19. Still on Processing and delivery window is Dec 7 - Dec 14.
I reached out to support to see there is a delay and said nope should be delivered in the window. I ordered on 11/23, Monday before Black Friday. Thinking, I will get it in a week, they even had my model and specs at the store. I just did not want to drive, I figure wait a few days. This was a mistake I will not make again.
I never thought it would take 3 weeks to deliver.

My 16/512 Mac mini (ordered on 11/13), which was stuck in Hong Kong for a few days, looks to have made it through Anchorage. Seems like they may actually make their estimated delivery of 12/9.
I ordered on the 17th. I'm seeing people from the 16th get shipment notification, but I'm still at processing. Best of luck!
I have the multiple Shanghai scans. This is the order I'm currently expecting next week:
This is the MBA I received last month:
I think someone speculated earlier in this thread we're seeing the movement between offices/stages at the Shanghai hub before it leaves China.

Wow. It is hopeful for my order to arrive on Monday as promised!
Ordered a mini on November 18th (16GB, 1TB). Original shipping forecast was December 18-28. At some point it was moved to December 16-23. Still shows as processing. I am very jealous of everyone here tracking their shipments. I somehow thought it would be therapeutic to post here . We will see how much it helps as the hours and days pass .
. We will see how much it helps as the hours and days pass .Even though my package arrived in Louisville today, I just got an email from Apple saying that my package might be delayed. I hope this is because the original delivery window when I placed my order was Nov 27-Dec 4 and not due to the rescheduled delivery date of Dec 07 being delayed. UPS is still showing Dec 7. I received the first Apple delayed email on Dec 1, presumably because the original shipping email indicated Dec 1 for delivery.
No, at least with UPS, often it will clear customs at the airport and then sit in China for a while.
I ordered my Mini (16GB/256) the same day. I had the same estimates on shipping as you--both of them. They charged my card on Monday and shipped it to Hong Kong on Wednesday. It's still there right now. Haven't seen any kind of update about customs or anymore info since then. UPS says it will be delivered 12/9, Apple says 12/11. Hopefully you will get an update soon.Ordered a mini on November 18th (16GB, 1TB). Original shipping forecast was December 18-28. At some point it was moved to December 16-23.

#ShanghaiGang -> #AnchorageGang. Anyone else not get a departure scan from Louisville? My last update was at 10:25 am still in KY. Any information on outbound flights tonight, or do we think mine will depart in the morning? Not even sure if tomorrow is an option considering it’s saturday. My mac is headed to the east coast btw
You may not have a flight out till early tomorrow morning. I know the next flight to Lansing is at 5am. Idk which state you’re in but it may be the same case for you.
Go to https://flightaware.com/, and use the "Search By Route" feature. In the origin, put SDF for Louisville, and in the destination, put in your major local airport and it'll bring up a list of past, current, and upcoming flights. You can look for the next scheduled UPS flight from there and even use the filtering features if the list is large.
@Kalae @SuperSnake2012 Those of us who have already had arrival scans in our cities, what do you think is the likelihood of a delivery tomorrow, assuming I live in a major metro area? Do you think there's any way we could set up a manual pickup and drive and pick it up from our local facilities?
I'd give it 50/50 only because of the previous delays. My understanding is that the current service doesn't include Saturday delivery but sometimes UPS choose to anyway for their own reasons.
I don't think pickup will be allowed without a delivery attempt. Sometimes you can pay to make a change like pickup, but it looks like there are restrictions on these deliveries.
