U.K. M1 Mac preorder thread

[Star Stuff]

Still stuck at Eindhoven for me unfortunately, hoping maybe they're scanning now so I still have hope mine might appear.

When did you guys get the shipped notification? mine was the 17th

 

[Mechanism]

My order seems to have gone from processing to (hopefully) delivered in 24 hours. I expected it to ship from China.

Apple and DPD were true to their word

Thanks. Mine still hasn't shown up yet but i'm hoping that it just means mine is yet to be scanned as I also have an estimated delivery date of the 25th.

I think that's very likely and hopefully yours will update as well. When I ordered, mine said 23rd - 25th and then it changed to the 25th. I hope that the DHL estimate is actually accurate this time.

Exactly the same for me. Still nothing from DHL beyond the fact that they have received the shipment info.

my DHL has updated for Monday delivery too. Original estimate 26th, dispatch email said 24th and now is 23rd. DHL estimates are always a bit flakey. For my iPhone a couple of weeks ago they said they would deliver late afternoon and it turned up at 10am. Not that I’m complaining.

Thanks for the optimism I don't think it is unrealistic to think you'll get it Monday. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

I watched as 3 cargo planes arrived today so i'll keep refreshing and hopefully we'll both see some good news It would be amazing for us all to get a Monday delivery.

Apple app is showing deliver by 2nd December, there's no tracking on the DHL website yet, but I've just got a text from DHL to say the laptop is due for delivery on Monday 23rd.

Same here. Happy times.

Mine hasn't updated yet either. It's a Silver MBP/16GB/512GB SSD, ordered about 10-20 mins after event. Dispatch notification arrived at 13:30 on the 17th, has been at "Shipment information received" since.

Seems like people receiving a shipping update now are waiting on MBAs rather than MBPs?

That is actually a good question as I ordered a Space Grey MBP/16GB/512GB SSD so if people can confirm what they ordered if you've received an update that would be great

Base Macbook Air down to £949.97 on Amazon - seems to good to miss so I've ordered with delivery tomorrow!

Macbook Pro price unchanged.

Yes, that's a good point. Mine is an MBA, not an MBP.

 

[Star Stuff]

That is interesting. This is my first time ordering online i've always just gone into the Apple store and bought it in person, are the Macs depending on which model you purchase produced in different locations?

I am still holding out hope that I will see an update soon especially since my estimated delivery date hasn't changed yet but I don't want to jinx myself.

 

[Table Top Joe]

Mine has finally updated! Went from Eindhoven to Amsterdam, delivers the 23rd now instead of the 26th! ....mine is coming to Ireland btw, hope you all get updates too

For those with no updates for their UPS parcels in Hong Kong:
The next flights to Europe start in 24 hours, but then 4 flights shortly after another.

So I guess we can't expect any movement for the next hours. I don't fully get it, why the parcels have to spend 3 days in Hong Kong until the journey continues.

I ordered an Air this time rather than the Pro, sorry, forgot to mention that.

That’s good mine says 4th hope mine gets moved forward

 

[Star Stuff]

Anyone else still stuck at "Eindhoven" since being notified on the 17th?

I'm starting to feel like i'm the only one.

 

[Table Top Joe]

Mine has now changed from arriving 23rd to arriving “soon”...it’s a MBA 8/1TB for what it’s worth

That's where my Apple BTO's usually get stuck for 5 days, I'm feeling blessed this time round, as it's gone Shanghai, Incheon, Koeln, Stanford Le Hope this time.

Waiting seems like drama. Nice problem for Apple to have - more demand than supply.

At least the lack of supply is nothing like the paper releases from AMD & Nvidia as of late, with Apple there is actually a chance of receiving it in a reasonable-ish time frame.

DHL tracking is a mess.

I however, recieved a text messager today confirming delivery for Monday 23rd. Worst experience I have had with a carrier when I have bought from Apple. So bear with it as when I kept checking DHL tracking website it was well as you can see clueless.

With a new lockdown looming here in NI, I decided to bite the bullet and have ordered an 8/256 Air in Space Grey from Amazon. There’s £50 off too, which was nice. Supposed to be here on Sunday. Really excited—my primary device is my 2018 iPP, and my MBP is an 8/512 early 2013 model. I’m hoping I’ll see some serious improvement in performance, but if it’s just a bit better that’ll be fine too as the MBP still does everything I ask of it. Just occasionally rather slowly, especially in comparison with my iPP!
