HomePod HomePod Mini Pre-order status/tracking

UK Apple store still saying ‘preparing to ship’

Expected Wednesday which is annoying as I paid for express.

HomePod mini arrives at my door, out of the blue, 15 mins ago

Go figure...

Out for delivery with Royal Mail (RIP) today.
2 days without a voice assistant in the study has been tough lmao

Anyone in the UK heard from Currys?

I ordered as soon as the store went live and had my dispatch notification yesterday (Sunday) with delivery now expected tomorrow (17th). No tracking details though, coming via Royal Mail.

I’ve had nothing from RM themselves, like a couple of people in this thread, so hopefully I’ll get something soon and potentially receive it today! Would be nice...

Someone on this thread said earlier they were told there was no stock in today and the might get stock by end of the week but no guarantee.

Is your status still saying preparing to ship?

Weird, I placed a single order for 2 white Mini's and it seems they are being delivered (UK) on different dates:

View attachment 1669008

Ahh, just saw the same thing happened to cmonkey1976 so hopefully mine will come together also.

Yes, It confused me.... I did the Apple Chat and they gave me the 2 Tracking Ref from Royal Mail (even though it said on the website that no tracking would be available as it was a postal delivery).

Put those numbers in the Royal Mail app and was notified this morning that delivery will be today by 3pm.

Hope you get yours, the white looks sooooo good, but went for the Space Grey,

I ordered a white one today from John Lewis for delivery tomorrow.

The white is now sold out but they still have the space grey in stock in case anyone’s still looking for one!

If you contact Apple via chat (went around in a loop until I typed ‘chat with someone’ - got straight through to an Apple rep that gave me the Royal Mail tracking number(s)

Is your status still saying preparing to ship?

Certainly is.

Mine came today (UK) via Royal Mail, a pleasant surprise as I wasn’t expecting it until later in the week.

We already knew this, but it amuses me that it comes with a 20w USB-C charger when the MagSafe doesn’t.

For anyone in the UK, John Lewis have stock on their website although I suspect it won’t last long.

Saw this too late and missed out. Do you / anyone know anywhere else in the UK that has stock for online orders ?

Hi guys. UK here.
I have pre-ordered 2 space gray Homepod minis on the 6th of November, via Apple page, minutes after the page allowed me to.
Both items still showing Processing and Arrives 24th November.
Email I got saying Dispatches 7-10 business days
Delivery: 19-24 Nov by Postal Delivery.
I have not been charged yet.
Anyone on the same boat as me? Has anyone already got the Minis? Got them before the eta?
Thank you for any info.

P.S Ordered 3rd one space gray Mini via John Lewis today at 8 am. Anyone else with option too?

Absolutely nothing, nada, zilch! I’m at the stage of just treating as a surprise when they do come, anything to keep this lockdown interesting🤣

Yep.

Hope I get mine soon then.
Still in processing.
Have you been charged and all?
