You can return in the given return window and buy the new model. I don't Apple will be doing anything to assuage you. It could also be something as simple as a bolt or it could be yields on the silicon bridge that connects the two M1 Max SoC's together. I thought I saw a headline somewhere that copper is in a bit of a supply shortage. Perhaps it's the copper in the M1 Ultra models. The Mac Studio with M1 Ultra does seem to 10-12 week delivery dates, except for some stocked models. This seems to suggest to me that it is something else causing shipment delays. Not bad given the global supply chain issues. The Mac Studio with M1 Max have late August delivery dates.

Heck, my company is actually offering MBP models with upgrade options now. They look like mid-August delivery dates. But you'll likely get quite a bit more for it if you sell it on Ebay or the like. Not sure what you mean by delays to the M1 Max MBP. You can use one of Apple's recycling partners to get a fraction of the value of your Macbook Air on an Apple Store Gift Card you can use towards the purchase of a new one. I was about to sell my iMac Pro to fund a 14” MBP M1MAX, but if we’re only talking 3-4 months til M2 versions, then I’ll gladly wait…he’ll I might even cancel my M1 ULTRA to see what the M2 Mac Pro ( ULTRA OR EXTREME) might price out as.Īpple should offer to users of delayed M1 products an exchange/upgrade to M2 with first option to order/swap away their current orders. Actual value awarded is based on receipt of a qualifying device matching the description provided when estimate was made. Trade-in value may be applied toward qualifying new device purchase, or added to an Apple Gift Card. Here’s the thing, because of the extended delivery of the current M1 based Mac Studio (my Ultra won’t ship til mid October), and delays with M1 Max MBP, I’m surprised they're releasing M2 variants so soon. You must be at least 18 years old to be eligible to trade in for credit or for an Apple Gift Card.
