Buyer Receives Mac Studio Ahead of Schedule: $1,999 Apple M1 Max, M1 Ultra, Worth It?

A certain buyer was able to receive the Apple Mac Studio even before the product was set to launch.

Due to an error, a French Apple fan got his early device before the product is set to launch, which is on March 18. This incident is the latest addition to similar moments in the past wherein customers received Apple products way before their scheduled official release.

Lucky Buyer Received the Mac Studio Before Official Launch Date

The news was then shared with Mac4Ever and what basically happened is that a certain unnamed store gave out the Mac to the French customer too soon. The situation led to photos of the actual device being shared to the public.

According to the story by MacRumors, Simon, the customer, gave a statement to Mac4Ever and said that he will be uploading more photos of his new Mac Studio soon. As of press time, there remains not much to see even as we near the official launch.

Apple usually makes an effort to prevent its customers from receiving an early batch of its products. Despite the company's precautions, however, retail partners unfortuantely end up making mistakes every now and then.

A similar instance happened last May and involved an Apple M1 iPad Pro that was received by a lucky customer several days before it actually launched.

The same thing happened with the AirTags as many customers received the product even before the official release date
