Pre-orders of Apple’s new AirTag began last Friday, April 23, but the company said that the first units were not expected to ship until a week later, on April 30. However, one lucky customer was able to receive his AirTags a few days in advance.
For now, it’s still unclear whether other customers also received their AirTags ahead of the official launch. It also seems that the early shipping is probably more related to Best Buy’s operations, specifically. Those who ordered an AirTag from Apple should receive it later this week, as expected.
