Haha!! Nice! 👌 I agree, I have a single Benq Halo, makes working late a joy! Really cosy in dark room.

Next for me is I will try to modify it to cut out space for camera & mic. 😊

Apple stuff usually comes with UPS here (Sweden) - I don't like UPS though.

When they delivered my MacStudio to my home automatically they just handed it over after I let them in to the port. No signing, sloppy types.

Now when I definitely want my Studio Display by home delivery, it was by default choose to be delivered to a place not that close to me. So I had to make a 'change of address', and it will probably be delayed

Calle UPS up and, wow, he really triggered my anger in his ignorance. Never mess with an angry woman 🤬
But obviously it helped. 10 minutes later the earlier scheduled home delivery was back.

As with other members, my order delivery date has been updated to June 30 - July 8.

It seems that my order has been shipped. Just received an email that it will deliver by 1st June.

My Standard/VESA ASD arrived today.
Ordered on 13th of March
It arrived on Eindhoven airport in NL, crossed the border to Brussels (BE) to go back to Amsterdam (NL) to arrive in my hometown after all. Why not directly from Eindhoven to Amsterdam seems weird to me. Probably DHL has good reasons for it.
My second ASD which I ordered a few days later is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

Makes sense thank you.

So what is really weird is that I got shipment notification today. So now I have both a VESA and Tilt and Height and have to decide which one I want to keep.

 

[ThirteenXIII]

anyone in the US getting your ASD delivered via "Deliver-it"? Service seems kind of shady and highly skeptical that this is going to go well, their reviews don't seem that endearing or promising but am curious if anyone else is getting shipment notices from them as a courier?

 

[CentralCoastCA]

Deliver-It is my delivery provider too. I also now have 3 different ETAs. The shipping email notification from Apple say June 2. The Apple Store App says June 7-14. Deliver-It website says May 31. I’ll bet anyone it doesn’t arrive on any of those dates. I predict June 1.

Apple finally shipped my March 8 order - Studio Display - Standard glass - Tilt- and height-adjustable stand. Although Apple gave me the UPS tracking number, it hasn't updated on UPS My Choice system yet. Expect to arrive on June 1, ahead of the second ETA.

Hi, Like you, I've ordered two displays in March (not received yet) and I am thinking of adding the BenQ screenbar to it. So far I hesitate but you probably have the answer. Does the screenbar block the webcam of the display? Regards, MHJH

You have to place the screen bar slightly off centre so the camera is not blocked, but it still works fine

My March 9th order for standard height/tilt was delayed

My standard glass with height ordered on March 9th was just pushed from May 6-20 to June 21-28. I knew it was going to happen, surprised it took that long.

I just got the shipping notification that it will arrive on June 2nd. So in the end it went from May 6-20 to June 2nd.

 

[Ziperix]

OW22 gets to a point that I've been wondering about --- My Mac Studio has been sitting unopened under my desk for about a month. While I'm optimistic that it could be sooner, my Display has been pushed out to July.

At what point do I return the Studio and wait for the next iteration? Can I just bring it back to the local Apple Store unopened after 60 days?

Yeah 60days is too long your machine is now obsolete and will be replaced soon with M69 Pro Max Ultra Extreme. People on this forum are ridiculous.

Yes, it does. Like @thedon1 mentioned, you have to place te ScreenBar a bit off center to not block the camera. I have been thinking on making a cut at the center of the ScreenBar lip with my Dremel but the way it looks off center doesn't bother me visually.

Do you turn on or off auto brightness adjustment?

None arrived with my Display today either, and they made a mark that they couldn't deliver as no-one was here.
I CERTAINLY WAS!

They will call me up tomorrow, as none could take this any further this afternoon.
UPS is among the absolutely worst companies I ever dealt with. They have been bad before too. But this is totally 👎

I got mine from my local Apple store after checking nearly every day for the past month.

mine says June 2nd from Apple but May 31st from Deliver-it, any status update on yours today?

Same here. June 2nd from Apple and May 31st from Deliver-It. Deliver-It tracking says "Shipper Created Label, Package Not Yet Received", so I'm certain it is not arriving today. So far every ETA has been wrong, so I'm not surprised the latest ETAs won't be correct either.

UPS are very bad here in Ireland as well. My wife does a LOT of online shopping and she really hates UPS. She always has issues with them and delivery times etc. DHL on the other hand she loves, everything seems so straightforward and smooth with them. DPD also seem to be very good.

Best I've seen, I have to say, is Amazon Prime. The Amazon tracker shows you exactly where the driver is on a map and how many stops he/she has to make before they get to you.

funny enough shortly after the post it was delivered. the tracking details didn't show anything outside of label created. it arrived in a random unmarked SUV no labels and the person who dropped it off wasn't in uniform of any kind. appears intact with no issues thus far, just was a little skeptical based on the reviews of this courier. still awaiting the other display.

Hi all. I've been lurking these forums for years and finally decided to make an account due to how helpful this thread has been. Figured I owe ya'll so here's my update:

Model: Standard/Tilt + Height
Order date: 18 March
Original delivery estimate: May 17 - May 31
Delayed delivery estimate (received this notification on 5/28): June 30 - Jul 8
Actual delivery: June 1
Location: St. Louis, MO

Yesterday, I read that someone here checked their UPS Choice account to see any pending shipments and voila, I also noticed a 40 lb delivery scheduled for tomorrow from "AI". I received the official update from Apple 5 minutes ago. So I'm assuming many of the delays may actually just be a couple days.

Good luck!

My ongoing saga:

We move out of our house on Thursday, June 2nd, and I had a strong feeling that my Studio Display would have a chance of shipping before we moved, considering all the recent activity with a lot of deliveries.

My order was still in processing on Friday, so I decided to switch the delivery address to where we will be in late June (moving into an RV to travel around).

And now today, it is preparing for shipping, which I thought might happen. I called Apple and they took the address of the campsite we will be at as of Thursday. I sure hope this goes well...

I can wrap up my Mac Studio & Studio Display saga at last.

Model: Standard/VESA
Ordered: 18 March
Estimate: 19 May - June 6
Received: 31 May
Location: UK

Initial impressions… it’s so nice to be back on a 5K display after abandoning my iMac for an old 1440p display when my Mac Studio arrived around 6 weeks ago. I’ve been spoiled by using my iPhone 13 with Camo for video calls, but the built-in webcam really is poor. The convenience is massively outweighed by the huge drop in quality compared to the phone camera, so I guess I’ll have to keep faffing around with that for the foreseeable. No big surprise though. Speakers & mic I can’t comment on as I use externals anyway.

It’s been a big hassle and expense but hopefully this setup will last for a very long time. The performance improvements have definitely made it worthwhile – the Mac Studio is so, so much more powerful than my iMac was – even if the needle hasn’t moved far on the display side of things.

Hi Dom.S - which store did you order it though? (Education / business / web / in-store…)

As I ordered my Standard/VESA in the UK on 9.Mar.22 (from a normal consumer online store purchase), original ETA in April, then got bumped to 17.Jun - 1.Jul… and it’s *still* stuck on ‘Processing’…. Starting to think I’ve been forgotten about 🥲
