Mine has just departed germany. Hopefully the UK will be its next stop. So far its gone china -> south korea -> china -> hong kong -> germany.

How were you able to track that? Apple only states "shipped" on my order page, and DHL states "Shipment information received" forever now.

Just a mini update, with the charger in, running 7 tabs on safari and the TIDAL app only the Mac is running quite warm, borderline hot. Bit concerned but I'll give this a few more days and see how it plays out.

Mines being shipped by UPS. Is yours a BTO or an off the shelf config?

Is that after the mac has completely finished indexing? Have you checked that there aren't any other processes running.

It's BTO, since I wanted a 13 inch with 16 GB RAM. Looks to me like Apple is currently shipping it from the production facility in China to DHL in the Netherlands, before DHL delivers it to me. I would prefer to already get some tracking information though, I'm too excited for a full week of no updates on the delivery.

For UK delivery Monday. Is anyone's MBP on the same plane as mine?

I enjoy going through this ritual every few years, it's pretty exciting.

I think your MBP will arrive in the UK over the weekend and sit there until delivery on the Monday morning.

Every apple product that I have had delivered from China, if arriving in the UK over the weekend, always delivered on the Monday :-(

Yes, I believe so. Checked and no other processes running either. IT's cooled down since but definitely warmer than I thought it would be still.

any one have idea how long it's gonna take for my MBP to arrive in UK? My tracking won't work until it's arrived in UK
My MBP is marked as dispatched as well on the 19th with a rough delivery date for the 26th. But I would expect this to be a little earlier.

I don't know if your MBP will have to go to apple first for the shipments to be combined. Might add an extra day or so.

Having read stories of people having the same issue as you over the years, it seems the best scenario is to order any accessories on a separate order.

My laptop finally arrived. The live tracking that UPS provides was the bane of my existence, I could not help but be completely obsessed with it. To make matters worse, the delivery window was from12 to 4, and they missed that. I think it finally came around 7:00pm. I was out of the house by then, but my family took care of it. I'm not starting to get my software installed.

I really hate when that happens. You waste all that time waiting for them and then you have to leave and they arrive. And then i often have to wait till the next day to get it. Story of my life.

Yeah, same here, but at least this time it arrived, but too late for me to work on it, since I was out and about last night. By the time a came back home, it was really too late for me to start working on it.

Getting frustrated now, ordered on 16th and still "processing". I would have thought with the amount of people cancelling their i9 orders the backlog would have come down a bit :)

Mine got delayed by a plane malfunction in Alaska, but was still able to make it and is out for delivery, though UPS tends to deliver to my house at the last possible time of the day.
