🌎 Mac Studio Pre-orders, Orders and Delivery Status Thread - All Countries (2022)

[illitrate23]

Just got the email notification that mine has shipped (Max 10/32/64GB/1TB).
Originally due in June, email says delivery expected 19/05
When I log in to Apple site (and also on UPS tracking site), expected delivery is next Monday 9th.

I'm not going to hold my breath though, based on all the issues you've all mentioned over the past 100 pages of this thread

hopefully they send my Studio Display soon too. It was scheduled to be delivered much earlier than the Mac Studio. I don't have any good display around.

This is my issue also. Display is still ETA 20 May - 7 Jun - they haven't charged my card yet, so it's definitely not arriving within the next 2 weeks.

I have a little 7" lcd HDMI display that I guess I'll have to use for the initial set up - and then see if I can use screen sharing or something from the iMac for a few weeks

While Apple tightened my delivery window, keeping the end date of June 29th the same for a March 24th order, the status has moved to "preparing to ship." I guess it will get here when it gets here.

I wonder about one point. Someone who orders the same configuration as me today: he receives it on June 30! While I ordered it on April 1st!?

Apple appears to have done a recalibration/reset on production of the Studio/Max.

As of this morning, new U.S. orders for the base Max have a delivery window of May 12-19 and all "base plus" Max configurations have a window of June 23-30. If what I'm seeing on Apple's order page is correct, it doesn't matter whether you change graphics cores, memory, storage or all three. It's like they're going to do a blitz on built-to-order Maxes. Subsequent to Apple's earnings call last Thursday, during which production problems in Shanghai were discussed, new orders for almost all base plus Maxes and Ultras had a window of July 27-August 10.

Posts here suggest that in the last 24 hours people who ordered a base plus Max around the end of March/beginning of April have also had their delivery window adjusted to the last week of June, give or take a few days.

It's obviously possible that people in the latter group will get delivery sooner, but right now I think that it's just a wait and see situation. If Apple's going to do a blitz, I assume that it will ship Maxes as they are ready.

 

[illitrate23]

does everyone get three difference UPS tracking numbers that all show the same details? As far as I'm aware, it is only the Mac itself shipping. The mouse/keyboard/etc all arrived weeks ago.

I have a little 7" lcd HDMI display that I guess I'll have to use for the initial set up...

Funny you'll be using a display that's smaller than the 7.7" Mac Studio... 😄

Curious what your order date was - my delivery window was pushed back last night to later in June than originally expected for a March 23rd order - identical spec to your order.

In a post yesterday, you give these details for your UK order:

M1 Max 10/32 GPU/64 Memory/1TB​

Ordered: 19/03​

Delivery Estimate: 15/06 - 27/06​

Credit card: Showed amount pending: 29/04​

Status change to preparing to ship: today 03/05.​

​

In the last couple of weeks, a good number of people received their Max 4-6 weeks before the start of their original delivery window, one person in Switzerland 7½ weeks.

Sounds like you're also going to get delivery significantly earlier than promised.

 

[unclegit]

Interesting - I ordered 4 days after @illitrate23 - identical spec and my delivery window was just pushed back to June 22-29th last night.

 

[OldMacWalking]

All Maxes ... nothing on Ultras ... not even early March orders ...

 

[F-Train]

As you know, you're part of a group of people whose delivery window was changed yesterday to June 22-29, give or take one or two days. Your new window overlaps your original window of June 10-24, and is narrower by a week. That said, I realise that for most of us the window moved up a few days.

As I suggested in post #3205, I suspect that this is Apple re-grouping production and that configuration doesn't affect the plan. That would appear to follow from what's happening with new orders.

I also suspect that Apple will ship Maxes as they're completed and that some people will get their Max earlier than June 22nd, but it's impossible to know right now by how much. I'd obviously like to see the Max in my signature sometime in the next 2-4 weeks

As F-Train mentioned, my order was 4 days before yours, on a Saturday morning UK time. Might be there was a rush of orders that weekend, it was right after the release I guess so maybe people had tried them in the shops?
Has your card had the preliminary charge yet? Mine got a pending charge last Friday. (still showing as pending actually).

 

[unclegit]

No charge yet - I'm a pretty patient human so I'm not that worried when it arrives - it's just a curious process so far and I'm failing to see the pattern

Stoked for you getting yours early though!

On Apple's Italian site, Mac Studio Max deliveries start on June 3, while Mac Studio Ultra shipments start on July 8.
I doubt there are all these Ultra orders, I think it is a choice to focus production on the Max.
If there were all these Ultra orders, this quarter's revenue would be scary.

I don't think that any of us who had our delivery window changed yesterday has seen a bank debit. That reinforces the idea that the change was organisational. This is only the second time in this thread that I've seen changes to estimated delivery unrelated to payment processing and imminent shipping.

Does Apple sell online and in its own stores in Italy or does everyone purchase from a reseller? From the few posts that I've seen from Italy, I get the impression that resellers play a bigger role than in the U.S. and Canada, but maybe that's a misimpression.

Where have all the wafers gone, long time passing?
Where have all the Ultras gone, long time ago?
Where have all the Ultras gone?
Sliced to Maxes everyone.
Oh, when will they ever learn?

This afternoon the site indicated to me on June 23, June 30. And now it takes me 4 to 5 weeks! It moves a lot... is it reliable? We'll see lol

Good news actually.

Looking at one of your earlier posts, we ordered on the same day, April 1st. Your configuration is the same as mine (see my signature), except that you ordered 4TB storage rather than 2TB. In the last 24 hours, my delivery window changed to June 22-29 and yours to June 23-30.

Now Apple is telling you 4-5 weeks, which means June 1-8. Makes me think that the group of us who ordered at the end of March/beginning of April, and whose delivery window changed yesterday to late June, may see a further change soon.

 

[Pilou77]

Indeed, when I ordered on April 1, I dived directly for July 5 when I took the 4TB option. So seeing 4 or 5 weeks today (if it's true) completely delights me. We'll see

Very interesting that the Apple Store states that a Max 10-32/64GB/2TB can be available as soon as June 30th
They really must've ramped up the chain on these!

As of this morning, Apple says that it will deliver a new order for any Max configuration between June 23 and June 30. The screen capture below is for 32 core graphics, 64GB memory and 8TB storage. This "revamp" started yesterday when Apple changed the delivery window for configurations ordered in late March/beginning April to June 22-29. This afternoon, Apple told @Pilou77 in France, who is part of the group that was given the new window, that his window was being revised again and that he'll now get his Max in 4-5 weeks, which means June 1-8 (post #3219 and following).

See post #3205 for more on this.

Just had an email stating "we're having problems processing your payment".. but I go into my order and there is nothing regarding any issues with my payment method (and bank account attached is plentiful) or an option to update my CC details. Email was legit apple too. Delivery date still stating June 8 to June 16th, but I feel like something might be happening behind the scenes. Just take my money Apple, I beg of you!

UPDATE - Called Apple just now, they re-entered my details and they've taken the funds. Woohoo!

(Edited to add specs - Max 32/64/1TB ~ delivering to Australia ~ ordered April 6)

 

[F-Train]

I go into my order and there is ... [no] option to update my CC details.

A few days ago I changed the payment card for my Apple account, but as you say it wasn't possible to change the payment card for my Mac Studio order. It isn't a major issue, but I'm curious about which card Apple will use when it charges me. I have to look at recent transactions for both cards if I want to check whether the charge has been made

Good to see that Apple is likely to ship your April 6th order soon. It would be great if you could update with your shipping info when it's received.

 

[MBHockey]

My Mac studio shipped and should arrive May 9th!

Ordered 3/31. Base max with 2TB SSD and 64GB ram.

original timeline was delivery by July 8

About a week ago apple charged my card but still said processing until today when i got an email saying it shipped via UPS

Only downside is the studio display i ordered isn't coming until the end of the month
