MacBook Pro delayed: when to expect it
Apple's MacBook Pro laptops are expected to be delayed due to supply chain issues and lockdown restrictions in China, according to Bloomberg's tech reporter Mark Gurman and other sources.
In the WWDC 2022 held on June 6, Apple announced an upgraded version of the MacBook Air with the brand new M2 processor.
While the official website of Apple states the M2 MacBook Air will be available from next month, existing orders of MacBook Pro have been delayed further than scheduled.
Why the delay
According to the report, this delay is primarily being attributed to factory closedowns in China, creating a large gap in product supply and releases.
The report predicts that this delay could affect future MacBook releases as well, as the supply chain disruption is still an ongoing issue.
To note, none of this information has been officially verified by Apple yet.
When to expect existing orders of MacBook
According to reports by 9to5Mac, MacBook Pro orders placed in February have been pushed back to as late as mid-July.
The report also states that it's not only custom builds that are being delayed, but stock models as well.
They are reportedly showing June 27 and July 12 as delivery dates, at the time of this writing.
