Anyone with a UK order for the ultimate spec had any movement yet? Mine (10th-gen i7, 32GB, 2TB) is still Processing and delivery on 21 May. Funnily enough ordering one today says delivery between 19 May and 27 May.
Got a tip for us?

A lot of us are still waiting for it to move on from that even when we ordered on the 4th May
Yep, same here.
I’ll get excited when I see some i7 MBPs (outside of the i7/32/2TB “ultimate”) move beyond Processing.
Seems like the 10th generation 13 inch are a bit delayed or just taking longer to ship. Order mine on May 6th and estimated delivery is June 1-8. I also have no payment on my CC yet

That happened to my MBA order, it supposedly went from Shanghai, to South Korea and then back again before finally getting to Anchorage Alaska. It was delayed by 10 days vs. Apple's original estimate.
I buy a new laptop every 5-7 years and this will be my workhorse for multiple virtual machines, etc. Wish it had a better graphic option so might check out the external box at some point.
You and me both. i7/16/1TB and still processing after one week. I'll take any update at this point.
I think you are the first one in Europe with the 10th gen to be charged so maybe things finally start moving here!Space grey 13

What’s a week or two if you plan to use this for 4+ years. Those specs. are great so you wouldn’t want to go lower.
There have been some very odd shipping details posted on tracking systems recently, and they are clearly often very wrong.
We recently bought some airpods which were shipped to the UK from China. According to the tracking the route they took was:
China
Hong Kong
Taiwan
Dubai
Quick trip back to Taiwan
Back to Dubai
Anchorage
Germany
UK
Obviously the second Taiwan visit was a system glitch, but Anchorage was a total red herring (no way they could have got there and back in the time even if it was something they would have done).
I would treat all tracking details with a pinch of salt at the moment.
Awesome. I'll keep you posted anyway. Past orders have been crazy fast once they're actually despatched so hopefully this is no different....I just have no faith that it'll actually be despatched any time soon with a status of processing.
FYI, YMMV.
Ordered last Monday, May 4th around 1 PM EST.
It took Apple 4 business days (Friday, May 8th) to charge my credit card, the following day (Saturday, May 9th) my status changed from "processing" to "preparing to ship". Today (Monday, May 11th) it has left Shanghai, China for Canada with an expected delivery date of May 14th according to UPS.
I hope your new laptop comes sooner than later!

I ordered i5/16/1TB on launch day
Estimated delivery: 13 - 20 May to the UK
Still says processing, so I won't be seeing it any time soon. At least the estimated dates haven't (yet) slipped from those I got when I ordered.
Ordered a new monitor same day which arrived after only a couple of days, so currently using that with my work laptop. I'm missing macOS already.

I do wonder if we’re waiting for a shipment of 10th-gen machines to a European distribution centre, or if its just a case of them being manufactured. It was encouraging to see a stock 13” model with 16GB ram, but the shipping waiting game is turning in to the same as you’d expect for a BTO Machine.

Oh a week or two is nothing compared to the years I've waited for a 13" MBP with a good keyboard. The waiting isn't an issue, its the lack of updates on my order. But I've been an Apple customer ~15 years so none of this surprises me, I just wish it wasn't so.
When did you notice it was preparing to ship? Also did you order in the morning/evening of the 4th May.
I ordered around 3 hours after the announcement. I noticed it was preparing to ship 1 or 2 days after taking payment so for me it was around the 6th or 7th.
Mine is also shipping to Europe w/ DHL and stuck in the same state as yours since May 7. Apparently, DHL hasn’t got their hands on the MBPs so far. I‘d assume that as soon as they do, it’ll go fairly quick and that they‘ll arrive by the estimated dates.
I think as soon as DHL get their hands on the shipment it is a matter of will they delivery tomorrow or the day after. DHL site showing the same thing for 3 or 4 days is a bit sour.
'hurryupdhl' is the most perfect name right now 😂
Update - item is still in Shanghai since yesterday. It was scanned again this morning showing it’s with the local fedex facility.
It is sour, +the fact that their tracking website said it’ll be delivered on Friday. Now it changed to Monday (today). Tomorrow it’ll be tomorrow, and so on. I don’t quite get it

Exactly the same configuration and status for me, except I ordered it on the 5th.
Pretty much confirmed ours are both on the same shipment. It was scanned at the local fedex facility yesterday and today. FedEx’s estimate is Wednesday still, so hopefully that’s true. Still expect it by the end of the week.
if you don’t mind me asking, what state do you live in?
