Just got the shipping confirmation from Elgiganten and the package will be sent out today.

If it comes as soon as the last order it should be delivered on Friday.:)
What’s your delivery’s status atm?

For me the Finnish Posti’s delivery tracking is showing that they haven’t received the shipment yet and estimated delivery is 25 May…

I wonder what has caused so many orders to slip to the 25th, seems if they have them ready to pick up today most of them could have been moved faster to arrive for release day.
Monday is a bank holiday in lots of European countries so I guess that’s why it’s going to move to Tuesday for some people


i just hope I don’t miss the DHL person tomorrow. Was originally going to come next week Friday only and my intercom in my flat isn’t working so people can’t ring my doorbell. It’s getting fixed tomorrow morning though.

Does anyone know : can I have DHL call me when they’re close by so I can meet them at the door ?

My delayed DHL package made it to Leipzig, from there to my city took 7hrs on my last order. I guess it will be tight to get it in the delivery van by tomorrow morning if there is no a connection in the next hour.

edit: and having in mind last time it went through two hubs on the same city, I thing it’s done I guess there is less than 10% chance that it will arrive :(

DHL is delivering my package (they also delivered the apple pen and folio earlier this month) and they sent me a message informing that they will deliver the package by tomorrow evening. DHL tracking system shows that the last known location was in Belgium so I am a little skeptical, but I remain hopeful!

When it’s in Leipzig, it will arrive to 100% tomorrow. Why are you so nervous? It’s 21:48 and you think REALLY it will not come tomorrow? Come on ??‍♂️ My is departed in Czech and I think also it will come!
Here my iPhone 12 Pro Max Tracking from November.

My Apple Pencil did the same trip and took way longer past Monday, but let’s see.

good luck to everyone, I will check tomorrow morning if the dates slip or DHL will disappoint.

I have got the same 25th of May estimated delivery. I am still hopeful it will come tomorrow as the previous order came in a day. And they sometimes bring it to pickup locations on Saturday too.

Thumbs up for tomorrow’s delivery, especially if you paid for the express delivery. ?

Wow, this is really disappointing if my order don’t arrive then. I am also in the Köln area, so why there is people with DHL and 25th and people with UPS and tomorrow if they are coming from the same warehouse?

Apple made a huge mess with the logistics of this launch…
I think this has nothing to do with Apple, but with DHL as Apple has given over the package on time for a 1-day delivery.

The logistics of this is pretty incredible. Imagine shipping all these units at the same time to so many different locations

That’s really bizar. I just saw the same with my package, I’m literally 45 minutes drive from Eindhoven but almost 2 hour drive from Brussels… I don’t get DHL here ?

as long as it’s delivered by the end of the day I’m fine haha

To those with late delivery dates in Germany, apple store app shows physical stock for almost every model at the physical apple stores, go while them last!
