When I power up my MacBook, the top right hand corner displays;

British Keyboard

A Battery Charge indicator

A digital clock showing the time 8 hours behind GMT (UTC) so at 10:02 it was displaying 02:02.

The menu bar, once loaded, shows the correct time.

Is this usual? I wonder if it's something to do with the time in Cupertino when the computer accesses the cloud/Apple ID?

I understand there are bug-fixes in macOS 11.1 relating to the M1 chip because there ARE different behaviours compared with Intel based Macs running 11.0.1

I would not try to reinstall the macOS on the M1 there are some known issues here as well.

Hi all, same issue on my two new laptops - Pro and Air, both M1s. Spent an hour with support - normal and escalated, tried to run terminal in recovery mode and change time - no luck. Guy suggested to re-install OS, but as this is time consuming i didnt want to do so. He thinks its OS bug, so we have to wait till next patch - I asked him to inform development team about this. Just curious how wide spread is this issue.

11.1 didn't fix this issue on both my laptops.

I don't see that on my M1 MacBook Air. It shows my local time on the log in screen.

lol I'm not that dumb. I'm in Pennsylvania, which last time I checked, wasn't in California. 😎

Well, it's not widespread at my house.
