Anybody preordered iPad Pro 2021?

maxwilkes — Wed, 19 May 2021 20:49:13 GMT

Any news on when O2 are likely to get stock? Apple direct are starting to ship orders placed early on April 30th. I myself put my order in for the 2TB 12.9 model with O2 plus 25GB data and got confirmation at 1:07pm on 30th April (so 7 minutes after preordering went live). Unlike Apple though which keep you updated with a rough delivery estimate (people who preordered early like me are quoted anywhere from 21-27 May on Apple according a topic that’s going on Macrumours). But O2 offers no such estimate just says out of stock and that stock has been ordered. The website shows the “more than 6 weeks” (which would be accurate for people ordering today or later) but any news for early orderers like myself?

@maxwilkes

I'll tag in @Chris_K as he's most likely to know.

@maxwilkes

Tablet production is severely constrained and Apple are prioritising their own customers.

There are also a few other issues:
1. Lack of Air Freight from Hong Kong (as most are built in Shenzhen and ferried across the border).
2. Processors are in very very short supply
3. LCD's are also in constraint..

Apple UK are quoting June / July still for delivery, the dates on Macrumors are US Delivery dates and not for the UK

@madasaf1sh Apple are quoting June to July if you were to order today (or later). Back when I ordered they were quoting May 21-28 even for UK. Don’t forget I got order confirmation at 1:07pm on 30th April so my orders been in for weeks. I appreciate supply shortages but even so Apple direct are shipping early orders this week so I’m wondering when O2 are likely to get their stock as hopefully I should be in their first batch of deliveries.

@maxwilkes

You need to wait for @Chris_K to respond with accurate info for O2 orders.

I literally just got an email from O2 confirming shipment of my order for delivery tomorrow by DPD. It hasn’t yet updated on My O2 (still says processing awaiting stock there). But I assume it’ll be updated at some point later today. Looks like I’ll be getting mine on release day after all!

Hey all,

We've had confirmation that we'll be shipping out orders from tomorrow, 21 May. Unfortunately there's no way for us to check specific orders and the timescale that will apply to that, but as soon as there's movement on your order you'll get notifications about it like @maxwilkes 😉

@Chris_K mine shipped this morning for delivery tomorrow by DPD which is perfect as it’s release date tomorrow (only YouTubers got theirs early). And my Magic Keyboard arrives tomorrow too.

@Jay27

No one on here would have any idea of that.

You could call customer services and ask them. All numbers in this guide

I ordered mine at 16:56 on the 30th April and no news for me yet. Just a waiting game now

I ordered mine just after 1 on the 30th April. Still no movement or email. Any idea when the cutoff is for it to be shipped today?

Cut off will be late tonight @DHorse666 for it to be shipped tomorrow.

Well still no movement and as per usual there's no way for anyone at O2 to check stock. This seems ridiculous in this day and age. Can anyone shed any light on what's happening? This is not the first time I have had a preorder not arrive on release day either

No one on here will be able to say @DHorse666. You would need to contact customer services using one of the numbers in the link provided earlier.

Anyone got theirs?

Re: Anybody preordered iPad Pro 2021?

DHorse666 — Wed, 02 Jun 2021 06:06:18 GMT

Nope still nothing but yet I could walk into Apple and get one today, if I could afford it all up front. So what's happening?

Mine was delivered on release day around 3-4pm in the afternoon (by DPD). I got order confirmation at 1:07pm on 30th April. I noticed someone earlier in this thread mentioned they ordered shortly after 1pm on 30th April so just curious how much after 1pm? As I noticed that when I ordered apple were still quoting May 21-28 but about 5 minutes after I ordered they were delayed into June.
