    So when we start receiving shipments??

    You can also activate the eSIM. I've been swapping between the 25u and zf7. I just go on the Verizon app and swap the eSIM back and forth. No more sticking needles in my phone and fumbling with a tiny sim card.

    Same. UPS still hasn't updated yet, so there's still a chance to see them this week.

    That has happened in the past. When packages move quickly sometimes the app doesn't keep up with the actual location of the phone.

    S26 ultra privacy screen

    I've read in a few places that the iPhone doesn't have 10 bit displays either. They use the same 8 bit with upscaling.

    How do you guys purchase your phone? Directly from Samsung or from carrier?

    My last 4 or 5 phones have been Samsung direct. I've actually spent a small fortune on their site the last year. 25 ultra, fold 7, watch ultra, gb5 pro 360, galaxy ring and now the 26u and buds 4 pro. I couldn't switch brands if I wanted to at this point. I love the Samsung ecosystem.

    POLL: Are you upgrading to the S26 Ultra?

    I did it for the 16gb of RAM. Figured since it's not much of an upgrade from my 25u I'd at least get a ram boost. I barely use my ultra since getting the fold. I always end up missing the big screen for browsing. Just wish the battery life and cameras were better.

    POLL: Are you upgrading to the S26 Ultra?

    Yes. Coming from the s25u/zf7. Keeping the fold and trading in the 25u. Ordered the ultra 1tb in black.

    Trade Ins

    Knock on wood. I've never had a single issue with my trade ins. Been doing Samsung unlocked phones for 4 or 5 years now.

    What keyboard app does everyone use?

    SwiftKey, it's not perfect but I love being able to customize the background and make the keyboard larger. Samsung has the worst autocorrect out of any keyboard. I try it out every new phone and usually switch back to SwiftKey or Gboard within hours.

    Wired or Bluetooth SMART SWITCH?

    I did wired and it took about an hour, but you can start setting some stuff up right away.

    New Phone!! Post up when you get 'em.

    Phone and buds showed up at 10 am est. UPS left it sitting on my walkway. Thankfully I only work 4 miles from home.

    Same, wish I could run it without a case.

    I'm liking the 2 tone black. Unfortunately my case is black on the side and semi-transparent on the back. My job and hobbies requires me to have a case.
