    UPDATE: Youtube has decided to demonetize this video… For simply mentioning the situation in China and quoting a news article. It's no surprise why topics like this simply don't get discussed on Youtube.

    I wanted to order the 16" M1 Max, but in Australia it did say like 5-7 weeks… and then got pushed back even further. So cancelled for now.

    Amazing and brave video. I've tried to get one and didn't understand why so much waiting time and that's why. Thanks again.

    Is this why Apple stock is down? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

    WHO KNEW treating your assembly line workers like complete crap might backfire? Something tells me these workers were not being compensated well enough to work in those extra crappy situations. Beautiful.

  6. Yeaaa it's been bad since Jan for the m1 max. I ordered my m1 max 16inch on Jan 2nd and didn't get it until March the 16th. And rue used m1 mac mini market doesn't exist in Australia.

    I did a preorder at the time I got mine, I ordered the very first night and got the macbook pro 16 m1 max and even at that time the shipping was a long time. I ended up getting it at the end of November. I love my macbook but for almost $4,000 I could have went with a lot of other options. I plan to make this last at least 2 years before I upgrade again.

    Hey, respect for your move about human suffering behind the curtains of high-tech production! I think another very serious reason of shortages and delays was not yet mentioned almost anywhere and it is the war that russia started. Firstly, there is a shortage of certain elements that are used for production of electronic chips because of the war on the territory of Ukraine, since Ukraine is the main provider of those elements to the rest of the world. Hence, shortage of chips was expected to hit the market of computers really quick. For the same reason pretty soon prices for (all)computers probably will rise. Secondly, because of the war, sanctions against russia and tremendous amount of changes in trade burocracy and trade routes, companies are forced to arrange new supply chains, and consumers – to wait longer. And the crisis on Chinese factory just adds up to this mess.
    P.S Really enjoyed watching this video on full screen: the colors&the light ! Huge thumbs up ! ๐Ÿ˜

    This is the perfect video. I just had this happen. I ordered a 16" MBP on April 4; the ship date was next week, so mid-May. But I got an email earlier this week saying it would be mid-Julynow!! So, I cancelled it. I bought a laptop with Windows now. I really wanted the MBP, but my business can't wait this long. However, if I knew that they were going to put even better chips in their laptops later this year, I might have waited since July is so close to September or October, but I have no idea if it's going to happen because all improvements to Apple products are only ever rumors!! I can't wait for a rumor to be true.

  11. This video is really appreciated and touches so many aspects of the products weโ€™re using without knowing the process theyโ€™re going through in the background.

    Thanks for highlighting and bringing much compassion to a necessary topic. Iโ€™m going to buy some accessories with your Amazon link. Appreciate this dose of reality.

    Plot twist – Apple starts selling Windows computers ๐Ÿ˜Ž

    Producing these in the USA would be to easy! Who needs jobs at all and taxes keeping here, right? That leads to a rise of pricesโ€ฆor the prices could stay the same with slightly lower profit magres for greedy, lazy and unqualified investors? Hmmโ€ฆgreed eats brain as always! Billions and billions losses with no end? No problem! But NEVER put the production home! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

    Pretty cool, we have war crimes and a slave revolt in the same year. What an interesting time we live in.

  16. MIINO

    im in the same situation ordered my m1 pro 16 on 5 March and there's still no update i don't know how much long will it take im gon die man๐Ÿ˜ฉ

  17. kirti udupa

    Yeah I have actually saw some like videos in which China factory workers are tired being inside of it and I have like seen some other youtubers(not tech channels)who are like buying a new Mac studio but it shows that they have to wait for like 10-12 weeks.

  18. Sindhu Sekar

    It was very brave and conscientious of you to touch this aspect of tech production. I am sorry your video got demonetized.

    Damn, that shouldn't be legal…

  20. Thanks for the video mate. Currently I live in China and there are three ways to buy MacBooks here: 1. Directly from the Apple store; 2. Second hand one; 3. From Macau (autonomous region, ex Portuguese colony): when it comes to Mainland China The Government has set a tax on each an every product from foreign company, including Apple. The price of base model M1 MacBook Air on Tao Bao (Chinaโ€™s Amazaon) is 8000ยฅ๏ผˆ~1180$), but the price of this exact same MacBook in Macau is 6300 ยฅ (~1000$). Huge amount of people have created a business based on this price difference. You contact one of them on Xian Yu (Chinaโ€™s eBay), they buy the MacBook in Macauโ€™s Apple Store, then they cross the border back to Mainland China and ship it to the customer. Downside of buying MacBooks in this way is English type plug. Iโ€™ve just checked their accounts and none of them have cancelled or deleted this offer. Deeply sorry for any mistake Iโ€™ve made, Iโ€™m not a native speaker. Tomorrow Iโ€™m gonna check those sellers one more time and update my comment. Once again, thanks for your videos. The decision of buying my M1 MacBook Air was based on your videos, keep it up mate

    If someone wants to give me $5,500 I'll sell my M1 Max lol

  22. Codetastik

    I literally has planned to buy a MacBook air today I guess I'm looking now for a windows laptop now cause I need it fast its for work

    Ordered an M1 iMac for Motherโ€™s Day on March 8th, was supposed to arrive 4 days early. Instead, we are waiting until late June to mid july

    Youtube algortythm is strange, i bought my mac book one week ago and now this is on my recommended.

    Definitely should blame the government, my family lives there. They are locking people in their apartments or convention centers and a lot of people are running out of food/starving. This has required factories to keep staff quarantined on site to continue production, but at least there they are more likely to have their basic needs looked after (Iโ€™m hoping), though Iโ€™m sure it would suck to be away from your family. Your hesitancy to blame a communist dictatorship is sad.

  26. Iโ€™m in Shanghai right now and I had no idea that the factories were still open and had people living there. Living here is rough enough as it is right now in your own homeโ€”I canโ€™t imagine what they must be going through.

    This is exactly my problem right now ๐Ÿ™ I've been planning to buy since last month and was confused why It takes more than 2 months to ship.

  28. Wimblemunkeh
