Gotten my apple pencil gen 2 today, arrived earlier than i expected. Think it is a ready stock. Placed my order on last thursday noon time and immediately got shipment confirmation.
But for ipad pro, need to wait till 24th to 27th... apple has yet processed the item yet..
Ahh Mann .. congrats .. I just got the pencil today ... ipad showing 17-24 april ..
Mine originally delivery date is between 24 / 27. But now they have changed it earlier from 21 to 23 april. Think they have speeded up the processing of orders.
The logistic ervice by UPS is realiable and fast. They ship from SG > CN > MY during mid night, then morning UPS can arrange for delivery domestically. I think we need just to wait for the SMS once it charge your credit card.
congrats ... I placed mine too for the keyboard but going to arrive 27april to 5 may .. so long! ... it is 12.9inch keyboard .. hopefully they change to earlier date... ..
The orders are stacking up after midnight.. if you ordered at 11pm ish to 12am still can get 21 to 23 april delivery.
As office 365 is not free for ipad pro. Am thinking to subscribe office 365. Price at RM60 per year (6 ppl join together), 1TB cloud storage, full version of office application for ipad and can be used for 4 devices per account.
Why not shipped together with my ipad pro on next week?
This is the funny part about Apple Store, they dont consolidate all orders and ship in one go. One by one. Probably its warehouse and logistic system cant cater for consolidation or orders could be processed and ship from different part of the world like some via Chia and SG
They even charge credit card 1 by 1 even on the same order. Perhaps it is depend on the location of warehouse ... both, pencil and ipad came from China but 1 from North East China and another South East ..
Yes, surprisingly my new magic keyboard for ipad will arrive b4 than my ipad. 😅 i placed my keyboard order on 16th and ipad on 9 april. Ipad still in processinggggggg.
haha yup. I just checked and they changed back to original date
Haha. I was thinking It couldnt be that Apple reversed the delivery status as my magic keyboard already left SG.. based on past experience, it will arrive 1 day earlier than expected, Monday.
Based on my observation, the status (updated to shipped) once the carrier picked up the items at evening like 5 to 6pm. Then u would receive the SMS/Email. The air shipment usually happens once a day at night (SG - CN - MY). So the items will arrive in MY early morning like 5am to 7am the next day. Then local carrier needs to distribute based on region for further domestic delivery. This is based on UPS logistic company.
Apple SG being the regional hub, it serves multiple SEA countries in the region... Based on the service opted by Apple SG, it appears to be UPS Worldwide Express Saver and World Ease, I think UPS is consolidating all orders from SG, then ship to CN (as the sorting/pass through) before onward shipment to respective countries. Hence it explains the timing and frequency of shipment.
I am not logistic expert but just my observation.. haha
My magic keyboard just arrived. The items arrived in KL on sunday but UPS didnt ship it yesterday and until this morning i tracked the status and UPS delayed it to deliver on Thursday.
I called and complained, 2 hours later my magic keyboard arrive... i think the UPS company is just keep up with the service level/standard

Did you have to log into the UPS or DHL account to get all these information? I hate to sign up for more accounts. For my pen, on Apple website it shows "On Delivery" guess that's enough for me.
First time using Apple website, the experience, considerations, layout, ease of use is...just different than the rest...superb. There's a lot of confidence for first time user like me buying so expensive items from the net. Note: To other forumers, sorry I've yet to learn how to pick & copy few posts and reply at the same time.
Apple would send you the tracking ID (upon shipment/picked up by UPS/DHL in SG) to further check the delivery status. No account creation is required.
