@Erick_Flores I received the “We’re preparing to ship your order… we’ll charge the remaining balance within the next few business days” email on Friday 19th November, and the card was charged on 21st November with the “Your order is shipping soon. We’ve successfully charged the remaining balance…” email a few minutes after that.
@Anand_Gadiyar Yes! that’s what I was meaning to say. Thanks for finding some better words to do it!
Ordered October 14th and still nothing. Anyone else in the same boat?
@Brennan_Sapp , yes, I ordered Oct 15 and have not yet received any email other than the “batch shipping” broadcast email on Nov 1.
October 14. “Batch” email only.
According to FedEx, the laptop just got delivered! I’m still at work, but I’m excited to get home to finally see it. Just 3 more hours to go.
I got an email on the 19th for preparing to ship but no charge or tracking yet.
Same
Just got my shipping information. I was charged the 18th and I bet they wait till payment actually clears. Supposed to be delivered Friday.
Update for mine. After my previous post I got a email saying my cc will be charged in the next few days, and it was today. So hopefully in the next few days I will be receiving my laptop.
Oct. 23 PLaced order
Nov. 1. Got the first email that said they are preparing my batch
Nov. 19. Preparing to ship my order and letting me know my cc will be charged soon.
Nov. 22 CC charged and my laptop is being shipped!
I can’t wait to get it and set it up.
Mine arrived on Sunday.
After much faffing about, I’ve settled on Fedora 35 with Plasma + Wayland.
It’s the only combination that performed well, looked smooth, and worked entirely out of the box.
Side note, I am shocked at how performant the Iris Xe is. It actually games shockingly well, even through Proton.
Hope you get yours ASAP! Best of luck

typing on it rn. it’s a beautiful machine. the hinges could be a tad bit stronger, it doesn’t move unless you make quick forceful movements, or bounce your legs with it sitting on them.
Just got my shipping email! Must be working late.

Order was:
DIY, i7-1165G7, AX210 non-pro, 500 GB SN850, 2x8GB ram, power adapter, 2 USB-A, 2 USB-C, 1 HDMI
Some part of this must have held me back.
Oof. I have a 1TB SSD and 64GB of ram (2x32GB). It could be the SSD and/or RAM holding me back. But i did order 3xUSB-C and 1xUSB-A expansion cards, so probably having a more of a fully loaded up system would hold back more than those that had more BYOs

DIY i5 ordered on Oct. 25.
Yesterday (Nov. 22) I got the email saying my card was successfully charged and my order will ship in the next few business days.
With the holiday coming up this week I’m hoping it will ship by early next week (Mon. or Tue.)
Oooof, I ordered a DIY i5 on the exact same day, and I haven’t gotten the charged notice yet. I should probably check to see that the bank didn’t silently swallow the transaction…
I got the following
DIY i7 1165g
WIFI 6 non Vpro
BYO storage
BYO memory
2x USB-C
1x DisplayPort
1x HDMI

Haven’t received any other email.
