What size screen MacBook Pro (2021) did you order?

yup, most of the 14 inch models well be shipped on release day, etc. The 16inch on oct 29th, so that means best buy will get them on those days in their warehouses.

Actually they already have some 16” in their warehouses
 
Am I the one ordering from a 3rd party retailer? The reason I ordered from a 3rd party retailer is they offered $150 off this weekend only for M1 Pro/Max pre-orders and $150 educational discount. I needed that $300 lower price. They promised me that I would receive it at the same time you folks receive yours from Apple. I ordered the Space Gray 14 inch with 1TB of storage. I traded in both my notebooks you see in my siggy. My final cost for the $2499 notebook was $949. I know 3rd party could be late arriving. I‘m already prepared mentally not to get upset if don’t get mine until the end of November.
That’s a great dea! What store is it?

Simply Mac. Be aware that some people online complain that Simply Mac can sometimes be slow-full with delivery. That’s why I’m expecting mine to arrive towards in the end of November although they said mid-November.
 
I spent the day backing up my current MacBook Pro to my Synology NAS via Time Machine. I also realized that the new MacBook Pros dont come with that Power Extension Cord anymore (I forget what year those stopped being standard) so I ordered a new one for my new MBP. Excited to start seeing more movement again!
 
Just a heads up to everyone who hasn’t heard anything… UPS/Apple is probably doing this deliberately to deter theft. Pretty sure the packages are on the way, even if it says otherwise.
I mentioned it a few times previously but will bitterly mention it again. My iPhone 13 was stolen at a UPS center. From the myopic information I got indeed they try to keep shipping information of higher end tech that is showing up in groupings as quiet as possible. Still waiting on my replacement iPhone :(


Nov 3-5, went PTS on Friday afternoon EST but hasn't moved since. I don’t need it to arrive on Oct. 26, but seeing it’s actually ship would be nice. 🤪 No tracking in UPS My Choice and nothing via web order or phone number when trying to track by reference.

BTO: 16”/Max/32 GPU/64 memory/2TB/space grey
This is me and also the exact same unit. We can cheer each other on as this progresses. I have nothing in the My Choice App. I also do not need it to arrive on the 26th but logistically would be awesome if it arrived this week.

Is there anyone with a 3-5 Nov delivery with my choice in here? Would love to follow your delivery window situation.

I feel a bit like a kid about this particular release. I wanna KNOW EVERYTHING.

so silly hahahahaha.
Me! It's silly but it is wonderful and I am with you on this. I have really enjoyed the fun optimism of this whole thing. Now I know why my elders were so chill with me when I was bouncing off the walls about things I was so impatiently waiting for.

I am presenting all day tomorrow so will not be able to hyper watch anything. I look forward to seeing how things progress and if anything changes from my side of things I will surely post it when able.

For the rest of you I will say what John Skulley would often say. The Journey is The Reward. However in this case the reward is also the reward. :)

Happy shipping day to everyone! Hang out this week and next and afterwards to high five the next waves. I know I plan to!
 
Wow! Amazing shots. Can’t believe these are real shots taken. So professional though. Thank you for sharing! You ROCK!!!
Great shots at Worldport. All I can say is whenever mine does eventually get going, I hope the final mile is delivered to me by this guy.

So it's Sunday night, my order is still processing and cancellable. Not feeling confident everything changes tomorrow, though... stranger things may have happened.

Ugh!!! Apple was going to cut something from the box. I knew it. The power code is $19.00. I guess they want us to use the MacBook Pro with a charger now.

that cord, is a "power extension cable", those haven't been included for many years now, so they aren't cutting anything. I bought my first macbook in 2015 and i remember having to buy the extension cord, but those are interchangeable so if you have one already no need to buy a new one. Of course the new mac comes with your power brick and usbc to magsafe cable.
