With the business and work stoppage caused by the coronavirus crisis, many Apple products had delays in shipping times. Nevertheless as the situation in China improves, the times are reducing.
For a few days Apple reopened the Apple Store in China For this reason, work has also been resumed in the companies that the American firm depends on to manufacture some of its products. Shipping time on AirPods go normalizing to the previous ones of the beginning of the restrictive measures.
China is recovering and Apple notices it especially in the shipping time of the AirPods
One of the many problems that Apple has had to face with the global pandemic, has been to face the increase in time in shipments of certain products such as AirPods, due to the lack of production thereof.
However, now that China is in the process of recovery, factories are returning to normal and that is being noticed by Apple who sees how devices are arriving in stores and shipping times are getting adjusted.
At the beginning of March the waiting time for AirPods averaged almost 11 days. Right now this average has dropped until almost 8. The same is not the case with the AirPods Pro that still have very high waiting times: one month.
Of course, now that Europe is in a situation similar to that of China a couple of months ago, users who made their orders are seen with the Apple Store closed, at least in Spain. But you shouldn't worry because Apple has already thought about that and puts at your disposal a battery of answers to buyers' doubts.
