M2 MacBook Air En Route
Apr 2, 2003
Orlando, FL
So I logged onto UPS my choice and found my M2 MacBook Air has already shipped and departed China. It has a rescheduled delivery date of July 13. Is anyone else seeing this with their machines? I know Apple holds back iPhone deliveries (every year), but do they normally do this with Mac deliveries too? I didn’t think so. Would be exciting to get it 2 days early!
I'm not seeing anything for mine: 8/8 processor, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB HD, dual charger (the middle one, not the 67 watt one). Delivery date estimated at Aug 2-9.
What are your specs, what is your estimated delivery date from Apple?

Because I’m traveling starting the 16th and couldn’t put up with my 2016 MacBook Pro w Touch Bar any longer, I ordered one of the base models with 8/512 in starlight with a 7/15 delivery date. The 16/512 had a July 20 - 25 date when I placed my order.I'm not seeing anything for mine: 8/8 processor, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB HD, dual charger (the middle one, not the 67 watt one).

Yeah, I've seen that anything with 8GB of RAM is supposed to ship quicker by Apple's estimates, but it is also really nice to see that they are shipping even those before the estimates.
Here's to hoping that the 16 GB orders ship out a bit early too!

If I could have been sure to snag a 16 gb ram model before I left, I would have ordered that in a heart beat but I’ve been suffering with that MBP 2016 for 6 years and couldn’t take it anymore 😂 Still I hope everyone’s ships early. I’m at peace with my base ram (for now).Yeah, I've seen that anything with 8GB of RAM is supposed to ship quicker by Apple's estimates, but it is also really nice to see that they are shipping even those before the estimates.

Yeah, my midnight base model shows a delivery date of 7/13, too on ups MyChoice. I’d love to get it early, but I bet that Apple will make ups hold it until launch day.

My space gray base model is showing a delivery date of 7/13 also. Counting on this changing to 7/15 at some point.

Normally delivery companies readjust times in their tracking systems at the request of Apple to comply with the expected release dates.

One of my recent day one purchases showed the same thing but the shipper held it until Friday anyway. Maybe you’ll get lucky but it is likely it’ll be held up.So I logged onto UPS my choice and found my M2 MacBook Air has already shipped and departed China.

I’m trying to be optimistic but not get my hopes too high. Having a couple extra days to set it up before a transatlantic trip would be really helpful. 😆One of my recent day one purchases showed the same thing but the shipper held it until Friday anyway.

Ordered from Apple to Miami. Already en route. Doubt it I’ll get the 13. Apple always holds their shipments. Regardless Friday I’ll have it in hand.

Midnight 10/16/512 here, still says Aug 2-9. Hoping that gets revised to something sooner after shipments begin tomorrow seeing how my order was placed 8:03am Eastern and as of a few minutes ago that exact same configuration was showing the same delivery window.

So jealous for those who got a 7/15 delivery date. I ordered at 8am on Friday but my date is 7/22. I am looking forward to reading your future posts on what you think about your machines though.

What configuration did you order? I ordered at 8 am too and got 7/15. I actually checked out at around 8:01-8:02.So jealous for those who got a 7/15 delivery date.

I got 10/16/1T with the fast charger, in starlight. I ordered from the education store and they took an extra minute to come back up for orders. I had my configuration saved, but took a minute to double check the details because I was so nervous about getting the order in quickly. And I took an extra minute deciding on ship to home and risk missing the delivery or pick up in store. I went with store pick up. Now I am thinking that may have been a mistake. But I checked out by 8:05.What configuration did you order? I ordered at 8 am too and got 7/15. I actually checked out at around 8:01-8:02.
Same model + config, got my confirmation email at 8:00:51am and still showing delivery Aug 2-9 🙃Midnight 10/16/512 here, still says Aug 2-9.

If it's any consolation, I don't think your delay in ordering caused you to miss anything. We went with Starlight 8/16/1TB and had our order in by 8:01, and have a 7/20-7-22 delivery window.I got 10/16/1T with the fast charger, in starlight.

I think you are right, because when I looked at the delivery date for 10/16/512 at 8:02, it was already 70 - 24, so I think the BTO options were just not available for 7/15.If it's any consolation, I don't think your delay in ordering caused you to miss anything.
