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

UPS really dropped the ball this year. People seriously faced over 10-15 days of delays after the new MacBook Pro was shipped.

I’m tempted to cancel I’ve been so frustrated. AppleCare is ticking since it shipped and my money is in oblivion. Temped to pay half and get a base model in store

That should be worth a call to Apple to extend that. It isn't right that the time for AppleCare should start ticking for something that is not in your possession. In fact, anyone that orders their Mac with AppleCare should have their coverage extended if their Mac hasn't arrived yet, or have it not start until the Mac arrives. It isn't as if Apple doesn't know the customer's Mac hasn't arrived.

Nothing is active until day of delivery of items.
 
They have a set that feeds 6. And yes, it's that good! In fact, a set of Voodoo Donuts, a day at Powell's City of Books - a full square block of 7 floors of books (@LFC2020, picture a bookstore the size of Melbourne Central. That's how big it is), then those fajitas. 🤤🤤🤤

Dammit, now I'm hungry.

Speaking of Voodoo Donuts…

Okay, everyone.. my last question before finally pulling the trigger... How long on average has it been for everyone between placing the order for your Macs and your cards being charged?

I'm gauging how long I'll have before the funds come out as I'm also planning Christmas shopping as well.
As others have mentioned, it really depends on what config you're getting and when it's expected to ship. I think a decent rule of thumb would be that for whatever config you're ordering, take a look at the estimated delivery window (it'll tell you that before you place your order), and I would assume 1-2 weeks prior to that window is when your card will be charged. More indicative than thinking about it relative to when you place the order.

If Apple offers a 17" 18" MacBook Pro... I'm up for it. Hopefully that will turn into a reality.
Reminded me…I was with my dh at his neurologist appt in 2013. The dr of course was paying more attention to entering data into his laptop than hands on with hubby. Doc turns to us and says, “I miss my 17” MacBook so much, hate this 15”, and proceeded to spend the next 15 minutes talking about Apple stuff.
 
Finally preparing to ship 16 MAX 64G 4 TB. Original window 11/10-11/17 changed to 11/12-11/19 yesterday. ✌️
Same config as me, mine changed dates yesterday too. I’m still processing….

I did notice that when dates changed yesterday the shipping went from standard to expedited. Not sure if that means anything… or even if it matters since it all seems to work the same from China to me when ordering new apple stuff. Once stateside and through US Customs, I get it next day.

That’s the 10th time in 2 days you’ve asked about my battery life 😂👌

Return it, you don’t need it, you already have the same adapter.
Lol, I’m obsessed with it. You didn’t even bother answering the question, lol straight up called me out. 🤦‍♀️

Trying to help you out. Trying to find out if you have a fault Macbook Pro or not.
 
Wow a lot has happened in the last few hours, same as others that have posted from my shipment group

so my mac is on its way to Anchorage right now on (thx @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗 for figuring out the flight number!! awesome)... and UPS is showing "Your package has cleared customs and is on the way." (an alert box I've never seen before) as well as delivery by tomorrow night... I'll be amazed if the delivery date is correct, but super happy it's finally out of China!!! 🎉🥳🎉🥳
