Macbook Pro 16" M1 Max release date in the Philippines

Availability dates vary by country. Philippines release and Australian release are not connected.

For Australia they are already available for online ordering with 2-3 week shipping, and in-store pickup immediately for certain configurations. See here: link-> Buy 14-inch MacBook Pro - Apple (AU)

Wether the configuration you want will be available if you just walk into a store is, well, impossible to know.

Indeed, exactly what I said:

The point being, they are already available in Australia. Where as in the Philippines they have not been released yet, at all.

And I do understand the Max configs are unlikely to be available directly in store at any point anyway.

It's likely those will be available as custom orders only. Since its highly unlikely just any random Joe that walks into an Apple Store will be looking to spend $5000 dollars on one without notice.

Specific configurations like that are best left to online orders.

Apple has not given a specific date. Keep checking the Philippines website for updates: link->Buy 14-inch MacBook Pro - Apple (PH)

HEllo,

Can someone please clarify - at least why do the M1 Max 32GB machines are taking so long for shipment? What is the hold up, and why doesn't apple tell the retail stores at least there is a delay on these? - Advertising say "OUT NOW" - which clearly is not the case, - since 26 Oct. - I ordered one on the 21st - 1 week before the release date of the 14" 16Gb.

Seems the shops have that model, but anyone ordering the M1 Max, have to wait, been a month now, what's going on? ETA on the 14" was correct, why do shops say "OUT NOW" .. when no shop has one yet, please explain????!!!

Most of these are build-to-order.

I am in Australia - i placed my order on the 21 October and that was 4 weeks ago, - no body seems to know any ETA on any orders, even for the custom built ones, i only went 32GB not 64, as has been one month already! hopefully the 2-3 weeks for shipping is correct (which i have read in more than one place, ...) my point being it has been 4 weeks, which is more than 2-3, and no body has any eta for even an order from 4 weeks ago :D all goods, its alot of money spent on super extra RAM and MAX chip, i will sit and wait...

Does any body here have already got their M1 MAX 32GB and how long did it take (In australia)??

They did not give me an ETA - aparently apple aren't saying any ETA's either, so im in a little bit of limbo, one store had on the website ETA of 10-11 but on the 9-11 they updated it now it says 1-12... it's a bit of a mystery though.. can't do much about it, ill leave it there lol

In the US, you can order through the Apple Online Store. When you do, they provide a delivery date window, typically about a week long. Those dates have been remarkably accurate. That takes a lot of the guesswork and 'when did you order yours' - 'when did it show up?' out of the discussions.

hmm does anyone in Australia have thier M1 Max 32G machine yet?

I am still waiting for mine, - the last messages here were from 2 weeks ago, and i ordered 6 weeks ago lol?? do these machines even exist? lol

These computers are built to your order, Not pulled for a warehouse.

How long you have been waiting or how long others have been waiting has NOTHING to do with it!

¿What is the promised delivery window?

Actually, do even the Apple stores in Australia have the M1 Max yet??? still have not got any idea at least an idea of when they will arrive? - not happy jan.

🤔

What did they give you for a predicted delivery date when you placed your order?
