U.K. M1 Mac preorder thread

[George_A]

Ordered yesterday a Mac mini, due to be delivered tomorrow.

I can now see that it has been dispatched, when I click the 'track shipment' link, I get the below from DPD:

Your parcel has been delivered and received by PEDERSON at 12:49 on Fri 05 Jun 2020

any ideas?

Where did you order it from?

Tracking is weird but I wouldn't worry about it, if they said you'll get it tomorrow then that is when you can expect it.

From Apple website, I've chatted with Apple and they told me it'll arrive tomorrow, there were some updates/issues with DPD website but nothing to worry about....

well. Fingers crossed....

Good start to the week now to download big sur

My delivery date is tomorrow on the Apple website and Wednesday on the app. I can’t see either of those dates happening now.

My delivery date according to Apple is still the 2nd of December, so I'm guessing there's an issue somewhere on their tracking integration.

Maybe its a recycled tracking number from DPD and just hasn't been updated yet? Have you tried downloading the DPD app - its brilliant and often much more up to date than anything else.

Thanks a lot Apple i've lost the plot, i'm sat looking at the tracking going nar nar nar narrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I deliberated a bit too long and only ordered on the 19th. So still 'Processing' and no idea until they take my money/ship it. Here between the 4-11th of Dec.

Anyone who ordered a few days after launch - how long did it take to go from Processing to being shipped?

Same here!! But I got the Air. Another Forum user here mentioned the following to me;

@LeeW I would expect it will change Tues/Wed, if you are lucky enough and it updates tonight/tomorrow it could make the Friday delivery. That is what I originally had but it was delayed in China hence it's out for delivery today.

 

[LeeW]

Arrived, took a while but I am still glad I waited for the 16GB.

Thanks,

I had the DPD app but it was showing the same. But 10 minutes ago I got the notification, and everything has been updated and showing delivery tomorrow....

already excited...

Mine shows as “delivery date unavailable “ on the UPS site, Tuesday 24th on Apple.com and Thursday 26th in Apple Store app. Go figure.

Mine arrived about an hour ago, and i'm currently typing this on it. The keyboard is going to take some getting used to as my last macbook was a late 2013 rMBP with distinctly more key travel. It's really odd to not encounter fan whine whilst doing updates and so on ?

 

[Feek]

And it's here. Shame I won't be able to do much on it until later today.

Ordered MBA 16Gb 512Gb 8G on 17th Nov with ETA 15th Nov. Looks like a whole load of people ordered as soon as the review embargo lifted and you got in on that wave whereas I didn't Still in processing here, not expecting to see a change until next week.

ETA 15th Nov? Typo, I'm guessing...

Anyway, I'm still in processing with my estimated delivery window opening tomorrow. I'm not too hopeful, TBH.

Ordered 19th Nov, 16GB MacBook Pro 256, est. 18th Dec, still processing.

Coincidentally, while I was checking order process, I discovered, my MacBook Pro 16inch was ordered exactly the same date last year customised with 64GB of RAM, and 8GB VRAM, and it was delivered 27th Nov.

Correct. I meant to say 15th Dec ETA.

My Air was ordered from Amazon on Friday evening and arrived at lunchtime yesterday. Haven’t done much with it yet as waiting for all the background stuff to happen. However, all the software I wanted (including Pubcoder, currently running via Rosetta but AS update coming in Jan) runs perfectly. That also includes an extremely ancient looking app called Textseek, which is the closest thing to Agent Ransack I’ve found on macOS that’s not overkill (looking at you, Devonthink). TS runs very slowly, but considering that it literally looks like a refugee from the ‘90s, I’m impressed it runs at all. The next test is whether the machine will hook up to my old Apple Cinema display. It worked fine with my 2013 MBP via an adaptor, so fingers crossed. The dongle is coming today.

My Pro left Cologne at 4am this morning, delivery still showing tomorrow fingers crossed. My Series X is also coming tomorrow out the blue from Game, delivery on that was meant to be late Dec!

Interesting. Our MBP's followed the same path until today. Mine is still stuck in Cologne. I received a notification from UPS at about midnight last night saying they'd missed the scheduled transfer time. At present, it's still in Cologne and the tracking states that the delivery date is now unknown. Frustrating.

Did you receive any exceptions? Or was it all plain sailing?

Mine missed the transfer too:/

Mine missed the transfer to:/

I would imagine that probably ruins our chances of delivery tomorrow.
