Macbook Air M2 In-Store Reservation (Launch Day)

[Aneres11]

Nabbed a reservation from my local Apple store here in the UK. Missed the preorders last week so was either going to go the John Lewis route, or Apple direct if I could. Apple had the colour I wanted (Midnight) so reserved this morning and picked up this afternoon.

Time to retire my aging Acer Chromebook! This is just a bit better...!

Made reservation about 11:00 am here in Portland, ME for a 12:30 pickup. Pickup went fine Guy at store told me that they have plenty of stock but people who didn't have reservation were waiting a bit to pick up. Surprised me that they had so much stock but..

I didn't bother with any pre-ordering nonsense because I knew my local stores in the central FL area would have them in stock. I woke up around 8:00am, picked up my iPhone and I ordered my silver base model M2 MBA for store pick up at 1:00pm. In and out, super easy.

I'll spend about a week comparing my M1 MBA to my new MBA to see if the newer model is worth keeping.

Writing from my new Space Gray 8/16/1TB M2 Air. Had it on preorder with a ship date of July 26 - Aug 2 using education discount. Checked availability and all the Seattle area stores had it in stock in both Midnight and Space Gray at about 4:50 this morning (I have work at 6 so I was already up). Ordered for pick up using education discount and had no issues because I'd never been charged for the other order. Cancelled the delivery on the way home on the bus once I had the new laptop in hand. I briefly pondered ordering Midnight instead, but after looking at it in store I'm glad I stuck with Space Grey. Midnight really does look nearly black from most angles in the store lights (and did show fingerprints). Still deciding if I want to sell my 14" MBP due to the lack of sd card slot and HDMI port on the Air, not sure if I need those things anyway.

Picked mine up at store yesterday with no problem and they said they still had some in stock. Today in-store is now August so I guess they were busy yesterday
