Same here. Ordered at 8.48am yesterday (2 December) and still on preparing to ship. The one annoyance is if I bought one now it is free delivery for 5 December. So getting in quickly hasn't resulted in any benefit. Not that I need this with any urgency.

I ordered 30 minutes before you. As you say, no rush for this product. I am quite happy with Monday. My second magsafe wallet should arrive on the same day.

So I ordered one at midnight today (UK time). I had an option to spend more on delivery to get it for 4th December, or free postage for Monday 7th December. I went for the free option. It just got dispatched and is already on its way to the final depot, and scheduled to be delivered tomorrow (3rd December) lmao. It wouldn't have come any quicker if I spent the extra money on faster postage.

mine was free for Saturday and is preparing for dispatch dunno if will get it any earlier though
 
I bought this over a year ago on Amazon for $14.99, can charge iPhone, Apple Watch (charger included), and a spot to drop my AirPods Pro on.

Got mine today and it is smaller than i envisioned in my head. Will be great for traveling.

Quality seems very good.

I was able to remove my Mini one-handed on my first try. Just turn it a bit while lifting it up. It's really not hard to do.
And the watch is easier to remove now too.

Didn't let it charge yet though, since the phone is almost full. Will charge at night, as usual.

Definitely looks cleaner than having 2 cables on the night stand that keep moving around.

Still think it's overpriced, but so far i don't regret my purchase.

I ordered yesterday around 9pm UK time, it is preparing to ship and delivery date is Monday.
 
Does this require a signature? FedEx says “missed delivery” and that they’ll attempt another one.

Edit: Nevermind, I was looking at something else, it was the leather case I returned. I wonder why that delivery attempt failed?

I just got mine! First impressions, I love it. It's a really great bit of kit for those who travel a lot (I go on business trips a lot so this will be very useful for me). You're paying a huge premium for the aesthetics. Is it overpriced? Absolutely. But as a product I think it's still great. It really did need a power adapter though.
 
Ok another piece of feedback - the cable they provide is short. Probably only 1m. That is very stingy of them. Considering this is a charging solution, I'd expect a 2m cable. Anyways, some pics below. I haven't taken the seal off the Magsafe yet.

This might be nice for nightstand duty for home (not so much for travel). Two things I'd want to see improved and I'd buy.
1. Needs to add positioning magnets (like MagSafe) even if it only charges at 7.5w
2. Needs an option for folks with a non-lie-flat Apple Watch band.

I have an existing 2m cable so I’ll use that. Looks nice.

Damn. Where'd you find that? I could only find a 6ft 6.74inch cable around here!


PS. You people are a bad influence on me. I ordered yesterday with free shipping was supposed to arrive Monday but now estimate says tomorrow. I'm in no hurry as I've been grounded since March and this is going straight into my travel bag once I receive it.

Got mine today as well, I like the look of it, smaller than I was expecting. And yes, they should have included a longer cable with it. Way overpriced, but I travel quite a bit and will be prefect for that.

Is anyone using theirs with an older 18W adapter? If so do you find the charging speed adequate?

Without having to buy anything else, I have either a spare 18W USB-C brick from my iPad, or I have one of those 5 port wall adapters where one of the ports is a 30W USB-C PD. I currently use that port for my iPad Pro. I'm debating if I switch that port to power the Duo and use the old 18W for my iPad... or use the 18W for the Duo and keep the 5 port for my iPad as I have always done.

Actually will the 18W brick even power the Duo?
 
I’ve got mine coming in tomorrow. Originally ordered the anker 30w charger, but cancelled due to tests showing that may not charge as well as other chargers. May just get another 20w brick since there doesn’t seem to be a big difference between that and the 30w. Also have a 10ft belkin charger cable in case I need the length

Mine is out for delivery now. Should be here in the next couple of hours

Mine as well. I suspected Apple would do better than the original estimated delivery of the 7th. I bought this mostly for use when travelling so no great urgency but I am keen to try it out.
