Hi guys, just want to quickly ask how long does it take for Apple to fully ship a customized m1 mbp starting from order placed to delivery?
I’ve placed my order on 24th jan and till today 5 days later the status still shows “Processing”. My actual eta is on 8th - 16th of Feb. First time buying on apple MY website, felt a lil nervous. Tq ya This post has been edited by Ashroft98: Jan 29 2021, 07:01 PM |

QUOTE(Mavik @ Jan 29 2021, 10:29 PM) Give it about a month, that's my expectation after I ordered mine via Switch. They told me to wait a month or two. Thats quite late even for a local reseller. Let see how it goes when its shipped from China. Thanks. QUOTE(soonwai @ Jan 29 2021, 11:03 PM) Did you go through this thread? Someone may have posted their order to delivery timeline. You can look here too: Thank you for the linked post. Haven't seen that before. Wow your order was delivered very fast in just under a week. Mine has been on processing on 6 days now https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-...thread.2267009/ Quite a few responses there though they're from all across the world, The ones from Singapore may give you an idea. Don't remember if anyone from Malaysia posted there. My order looked like this but it's a Mac Mini 16/256. 13/1 Ordered (ETA: 28/1 - 4/2) 14/1 Card Charged 16/1 Preparing to Ship 16/1 Shipped (ETA: 25/1) 19/1 Out for Delivery & Delivered  Hopefully all goes well. |

QUOTE(Mavik @ Jan 30 2021, 09:55 AM) That is because I customised my MBA M1 (16Gb and 512Gb SSD) and didn't get any of the base spec models which they had stock for. Hence they couldn't promise the exact time it would take. I ordered mine on the 5th of Jan, will follow up with them next week. Not in any hurry as I recently received a MBP M1 at work as well so still get to play with one. Ah I see. Still quite a long wait for customised macs. I’m not sure if I’m able to be that patient. QUOTE(rickyro @ Jan 30 2021, 11:11 PM) I'm also facing the same issue... Looks like we are on the same boat. I’m considering to give Apple MY a call to ask for order updates since it’s been a week since we ordered. Also just to rule out there’s no problem with the payment etc.Ordered on 24th jan, till today still processing.. ETA 2ND TO 10TH FEB... |

QUOTE(eikozai @ Jan 31 2021, 03:47 PM) MBA haven greater demands compare to Pro for this generation, so its normal for MBA purchases to have longer waiting period compare to MBP purchases. Thats interesting regarding new MBA vs MBP demand. Initially it gave the estimated date of about a month yet it arrived earlier. Nice.I waited 3 weeks+ to get mine on hand when i placed my MBA order on 12th December, same spec as what u ordered. Received only on 5th January. Its still earlier than the promised date from Apple, which initially stated to be delivered between 13th Jan to 20th Jan 2021. |

QUOTE(rickyro @ Feb 2 2021, 01:09 AM) Which USB C hub are you guys using? Never heard about this usb c hub bricking macbook before. However, I already ordered a ugreen usb c hub bought at shopee.But haven’t tested it yet as both the hub and macbook havent arrived yet :’)Update: A quick reading on the Web mentions that don't use a USB hub that has PD charging.. It may brick ur macbook! the non-pd ones no issue I’m planning to use usb c port on the macbook itself for charging. And the usb c at the hub is for time machine backup ssd. |

QUOTE(rickyro @ Feb 2 2021, 10:42 AM) I'll stick a note at my USB C hub's USB C port, remind everyone not to plug in any charging brick onto it, but only for peripherals. Agreed. USB C ports on hubs aren’t ideal enough for constant charging etc. Hmm... why dont u get the updated usb c hub version with 60hz hdmi from LAZADA? https://www.lazada.com.my//products/i142493...dZ&urlFlag=true Regarding the updated USB C hub, I did survey it before buying but I’ve a hunch that there would be too many ports for 1 USB C to cater, even when not using all of them simulataneously. I already knew I didn’t need the VGA and extra USB 3.0 ports. Plus I’d also like the RJ45 / HDMI cable to be at the end of the hub and not on the sides of it. Just a design preference  |

MBP 16/512
24/1 Ordered (ETA 8-16th Feb) 1/2 Card Charged 2/2 Preparing To Ship 3/2 Shipped (ETA 11th Feb) Now in the tracking website still only shows “shipment picked up” at Shanghai. It also shows next destination as KL - Malaysia. Means no need to transit at S’pore first? |

QUOTE(Our Store Trading @ Feb 5 2021, 06:52 PM) Sample of tracking, take 2-3 days to reach Malaysia. Once reach, can deliver on the same day unless weekend. Woah thats really fast and minimal amount of tracking details available. Also yep mine use DHL, the same one in the picture above. So possibly, its supposed to arrive today but its weekend :/ Anyway thanks for the info ! Much appreciated. |

Guys, I recently found posts with macbooks that has space grey colour to be fading/discolouration as early as 3 months. Has anyone encountered this before?
I'm thinking of buying a palm rest sticker for my lovely m1 mbp just for safe measures  |

QUOTE(Asus W3V @ Feb 23 2021, 10:13 PM) Guys , Yeah, all Apple Authorised Resellers only sell the base models 8/256 and 8/512. If you need more RAM > 8 or Storage > 512, must purchase and customise from Apple website (and ship from China).For the 16GB spec , I found out that most of the authorized dealers don’t carry that spec. Especially SQ, Machine , Harvey Norman. This spec need to be specially customized only on apple website? But I’ve seen posts who originally bought from Apple Store and sell it back locally here too. But they are not authorised resellers. Asus W3V liked this post

Hi all
 just wanted to make a comprehensive review on M1 MBP 16/512 from a student perspective after a month of full use. Short info of me, I’m a final year EE engineering undergrad that uses basic office suite, several programming softwares, light graphic design/video editing and also extensive use of electrical engineering related softwares. Previously, I used 13” 2015 MBP 8/256 with current M1 MBP runs mostly as desktop with clamshell mode and moderate portable use.Click to open lengthy pros/cons >> » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «  Overall experience was smooth and pleasant. However there are some rare app crashes/kernel panic. Multitasking and battery life is excellent and a serious upgrade from previous-gen MBPs. App support for M1 chips are generally good but more EE-niche softwares tend to run not as consistent as on W10 machines.TLDR; An extremely good buy for heavy multitasking use and portability especially for homebound final year undergrad students with 3 major projects and 10 assignments due  |
