• A friendly heads up that shipping is still a little behind. How far behind varies based on what device and where in the world you ordered, but roughly speaking everything is two weeks behind. The team is working hard to catch up on capacity, and estimates are that by January 15th operations will be back to normal with 3-5 day processing times across the board.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused, and the team is looking forward to getting everyone connected! DIMO has been building this for a long time, and these hardware devices will change the way the world interacts with their cars, service providers, and data. Your patience is appreciated as the team ensures every single member of the community is taken care of.
