I ordered a Space Grey 16” M1 Pro 512GB, arrival estimated between 10th - 17th Dec.

Been using a mid 2015 Retina MBP since late 2016. I use it for office productivity work (no heavy usage like video editing or bit coin mining lol). I was tempted to switch to an M1 MacBook Air before Apple announced the new M1 Pro MacBook Pros, but decided to go with the MacBook Pro because of the screen real estate. I know it is an overkill to many to use a 16” MBP for office work, but I always prefer larger screen as I am pretty used to my workflow of having to view multiple windows on 1 screen.

To those who have received your MBP, enjoy!

Anyone with their MBP scheduled to arrive between 10th - 17th Dec receive any updates? I doubt mine will be arriving on the 10th since the status is still "Processing"...

Usually it will update to preparing for shipment 2 days before. Lets wait until tomorrow and check back the status. Preparing shipment to shipped took less than 24 hours i think..and then upon shipped, the "Shipment picked up" status seems like appearing forever.

Yeah, that’s why I think it may not reach me here by this Friday 10th, since it will probably take more than 2 days to get from Shanghai to my doorstep. But will be very happy to be proven wrong biggrin.gif

Anyone having theirs shipped from Singapore? I see most of those who shared their DHL tracking are originating from Shanghai. Just got a notification from Apple that mine just shipped out from Singapore biggrin.gif
