I just looked on bestbuy.com and they have them and I could have had one delivered Friday (2 days from now). I was tempted to order one and cancel the one I have on order from Apple instead of waiting 5 more weeks after receiving my Mac Studio. I decided to wait because the one at Best Buy is full price ($1599) and when ordering from Apple using the military and veterans discount, the price was only $1439, a savings of $160 (10%).
Makes sense. I went with Best Buy, $75 credit, plus they gave me an additional $25 for the long wait. I also didn't want to wait 5 weeks.

If you like the basic model, it's $1499 at Costco

I don’t really understand why no Apple stores have these in stock. I ordered one from Best Buy yesterday, and it delivers tomorrow.

The standard model seems to be available in Apple Stores in the UK and a few people have also reported being able to pick up the height-adjustable one although they seem to be very rare.

The lead-time for orders placed today still seems incredibly long for what they are. I wonder what's specifically causing the delay with these.

I was always going to get two displays and it was always one tilt/height and one just tilt. I've been able to get the latter one at a UK store but I'm still waiting for the tilt/height to be delivered. I've been using the InventoryWatch app and have seen the tilt/height showing a few times at nearby stores. If it wasn't for the fact that I'm getting my online one at quite a discount, I'd have cancelled the order and just gone and got it.

I'm now a few days into my delivery window of 27th June to 11th July so hoping it'll arrive soon.

/edit - Quite a few UK stores are showing the nano texture, tilt and height available right now.

Seems like they're still hitting end of the window
Mine (USA) says Jun 22 - July 7. Still on processing with no charge but message has changed to "We’re preparing your order and will notify you when it ships."

It might be the Covid restrictions they’ve had again in China. They were lifted last week, so things might be getting back to normal.

I waited over three months for my Studio Display. And ordered a custom Mac Studio on 24 June, with a delivery window of 11-18 August. But it’s shipped already and due to be delivered (UK) on 5 July, over five weeks early. So displays might start shipping sooner now too.

You can find VESA recipients in this thread but not really people receiving them early other than those who ordered in March and had their dates moved out (so not really early). I ordered (height/tilt) April 25th with an arrival date of July 7th and it's still processing.

Also UK, ordered standard/tilt/height too on 5th May (10 days after you) with a window of 6th July - 20th July, still in Processing and "We have everything necessary to complete your order. We’ll update your delivery date when your order is preparing to ship."

Perhaps if yours is anything to go by, mine might move in around 10 days.

Have you checked if your card has been charged now? That is usually the best sign it's coming very soon for you. Hope you get it soon.

Hope so :)

The green bar on mine is still on Processing, it's the text underneath that's changed.

The payment isn't on my card so I can't tell if it's been charged or not.

I think I've seen before on this thread/Reddit that when the text changes that's the first step, then it quite quickly moves to Preparing to Ship around at around the same time the card is charged - they tend to turn up a week or so later from there on average.

I've finally received mine. The display looks great. But that camera...it's just unusable. Even with 15.5 firmware, I look like I've got jaundice or spent way too much time on a beach. The camera might be okay for personal video calls, but it cannot be used for work-related calls.

🙌🏼 So happy for you. I guess you will get it just before the end of your delivery window.

I suppose since I ordered 10 days after you, I should expect movement in 10 days!

I've got the DPD tracking details, it's due tomorrow.

My Mac Studio is still outstanding though, that's not due until the 20th July.

again still no movement, expected on the 7th (10PM on the 6th right now). Messaged to check if there was an issue because w/ recent order there was a card decline. Told I'm still in the delivery window and "Sometimes orders are being shipped to the carrier one day before the estimated delivery date or even the same day, we work with the best carriers to ensure your order will be delivered on time!"

Idk about that, hopefully true... Being horribly impatient I know but my current monitor sucks and was hoping to get this on time. Did get this gem out of the exchange. Maybe we should all sign off like this

What's your full delivery window - is the 7th the end of it?

Hope you're having an Appletastic day though? 🥴
