According to an Apple analyst, MacBook Pro models are experiencing extended delivery times due to component shortages and ongoing lockdowns in China caused by the global Pandemic.
In the online Apple Store, M1 Max and custom M1 Pro versions of the 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro deliveries are delayed until late May or early June.
(2/2) Conversely, the delivery time of high-end MacBook Pros (Quanta as the sole supplier) that have been in good demand since launch has roughly increased by 3-5 weeks after the China lockdown. — 郭明錤 (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) April 13, 2022
Several MacRumors readers who were waiting on MacBook Pro models ordered in March and April have had their shipments delayed because of Apple's supply issues.
Eric was supposed to receive his machine by April 22, but his order has been delayed until May. Vera was supposed to get a MacBook Pro on April 13, but the estimated delivery date is May 9 to May 16.
Many Apple customers who have been waiting for their MacBook Pro models to arrive in April are now being forced to wait until at least May as Apple tries to solve its supply issues.
Apple's Q2 earnings call is scheduled to take place on Thursday, April 28 and it is possible that the company will provide more color on its supply chain problems. MacBook Pro shipping delays are one of the reasons Apple is also seeing delays for the Mac Studio with M1 Ultra chips and some Intel-based Mac Pro models.
The MacBook Air, Mac mini, and iMac are all available.
