If you click on the "Track Now" button it should take you through to the couriers website. In my case it was DPD and they haven't updated to show my proper tracking yet, but definitely DPD.

Thanks for the response.

I had already tried that and mine is taking me to a site called Syncreon which I assume(d) is Apple's internal logistics partner but I could be wrong...

Oh well - I'm sure mine will turn up at some point.

Thanks again.

How do you know it is DPD out of interest? Dont see any tracking info on my order yet...

That's a question to UK posters, sorry.

Yes Syncreon Logistics is the logistical partner Apple uses to dispatch.

Based on the consignment reference, one of the IDs should work for DPD
 
East coast US (Vermont) 12.9 inch predicted arrival Apr 24-May. Just went PTS within the last hour. Charge showing up on my Apple Card as pending, also within last hour. Anticipation.... 😊
NYC here. Exact order and delivery time frame. Mine has moved to PTS today as well. Hopefully we’ll receive it by the end of the week!

Happy iPad Pro Magic Keyboard UK Delivery Day to all the UK folk here! :) (HiPPMKUKDD)

Got a delivery slot with DPD for 11:28-12:28

Congrats! You did say you get them early! I’m guessing mine will be around 2-4pm...as I’m in Scotland, it’s still not reached the depot and doesn’t normally until 10am...

Also, ijustine has just posted an update / Q+A type video which is actually a really good and honest watch.

She goes into all the questions asked of her review video, gives honest criticism where needed and shows quite a few tips and tricks!

Even has an (albeit awkward) workaround for if you quickly need to draw or take notes!

Yeah some went in depth quite well with the keyboard. Yeah tend to go them morning here. Good to know when it’s coming that’s for sure

Lucky you.

Had no info on mine so finally caved and called Apple. They say mine is being delivered by UKMail!!! Not happy as I have had really bad experiences with them in the past.

Did manage to get a tracking number and supposedly I am delivery number 90 (and the delivery van is on its way to delivery number 1).

Wouldn't be surprised if I dont get mine today... but we'll see...

Good luck to everyone else getting there's today (finger crossed for you).

Do you mean UKMail as in that’s the name of a courier (never heard or them)? Or do you mean Royal Mail? At least you’re in a courier queue!

Mine still hasn’t reached my local DPD depot! Ha

Could be worse could be yodel. Least you have a rough time frame as with them or Hermes it’s anytime.

DPD due 4-5pm.
I had a feeling when ordering this thing I’d like it but now after seeing all the reviews which tended to wax lyrical - I’m sure this is going to be like when I purchased AirPods: and thought wow that’s some R&D budget being spent there.

Sometimes the cost of a thing isn’t all about the items intrinsic value or is £300 fair for the parts etc, it’s actually more: does the device make you smile and do enjoy its use every day.

So I’ve either drunk the Apple PR marketing champagne and I’m 100% fanboi without objectivity - OR - this is going to be a damn fine piece of kit and to me well worth the £300 quid I’ve added to Apple coffers! (I subscribe to the latter in case that wasn’t clear!)

And nope this keyboard hasn’t made me unhinged 😉 Not in the slightest! 😆

Mine arrived not long ago.

It's so much nicer in real life than any of the videos. It's extremely sturdy and well made, I actually like the weight of it. Feels very premium indeed.

The trackpad click itself is very loud though. Substantially louder than the Magic Trackpad or any of Apple's notebooks from the present or past. Will take some getting used to that. Other than that, I think it's sensational.

Nice! Where are you based again? That’s quite a late delivery. I’m still waiting on a time slot but it has arrived at my local depot.

Haha exactly! If it makes you smile and helps you get done what you need done then have at it!

Just arrived. Typing is awesome and having built in trackpad is just what I’ve needed. Do actually like the angles better. Certainly well built

Congrats! You won the delivery race! Haha.

Looks great! Also looks a lot more grey than I was expecting? A lot of the videos on YouTube make it look almost black? Maybe it’s just the bright sunlight?

Also, my DPD delivery is almost here!

12:47-13:47 delivery scheduled, I’m 31st in the queue and my driver is on number 5! Woo!

It’s certainly darker than the old ASK. Certainly more closer to black than grey.

So glad you can put your finger over the trackpad and don’t need to click it each time as that would annoy me if it did. No doubt as people have said it is heavy but this typing experience is great as expected.

Understand though who may want a bigger trackpad as wish it was bigger but still works very well. Nice not needing to use my Magic Trackpad on the sofa.

I’m typing this on the sofa and it a lot better on the lap than the ASK without question.

Sounds great! So you’re finding it usable/beneficial so far? Anything you don’t like?

Found this video of a guy trying that awkward angle drawing thing I spoke about before too...

Like others have mentioned i would rather have volume/play/stop and brightness on the keyboard but after using lt for 10 mins i can see why it’s not there due to lack of room. Suppose they could have done another angle to tilt back further but the ones on here are the ones i would use most often.

One thing is for sure due to the weight there is no fear of this being tough to type on your lap at all.
