Congrats to everyone who got their device already. Still on pace for Monday here. As someone else mentioned, I doubt Samsung paid for Saturday delivery. Shipping 2nd Day Air on a Thursday otherwise kind of defeats the purpose. All good, glad to be getting it even just 2 days early.

Why the 10th and not the 9th? They seem to be shipping 2nd Day Air.

It's been a LONG time since I posted on here. Ah, those were simpler times. Anyway, my S26 Plus shipped today. Got the notification this morning. UPS website estimates I get it Monday. I'm on the East coast and it's of course shipping from TX. Shipping service is "2nd Day Air." I pre-ordered...

I pre-ordered on the first day, the 14th. T-Mobile was quite slow in answering DMs on Twitter that day though, so my pre-order wasn't complete until the evening.

Well, I do wish the base S21 had the premium build quality Samsung used to give that model but has only reserved for the Plus and Ultra this year. I just think the Plus is a little bigger than I like in my phones, but I'd definitely order it over the clunkier Ultra. In fact, I'll be checking out...

T-Mobile says "ships by 1/24" now, and UPS My Choice says I have a delivery from T-Mobile arriving Wednesday by 9 p.m.! Woohoo! S21 in Phantom White FYI. I almost wrote "Prism White." The S10 line was peak Samsung IMO.

Gonna go caseless as usual for the most part, and as usual I'll order the official leather cover for the occasional case wearing.

Jealous, if this actually happens. T-Mobile doesn't even use UPS's Saturday delivery if I'm not mistaken. I guess Sprint is still fulfilling their own pre-orders, and it's through USPS. Which S21 did you pre-order? Mine still says that it ships by 1/29. I pre-ordered on Day 1 through T-Mobile.

For me, the leather cases are the only ones worth getting. Kinda digging how that black contrasts with the bronze. I use my phones without a case most of the time, but like to have one for an extra active/risky day. I think I'll go with that black leather.

I would have if it wasn't 60hz. Even with the plastic back. That thing felt perfect in-hand, whereas the Ultra is too big for full-time one-hand use. Loved using the standard Note10 last year. Just way too many compromises this time around though.

If you want to feel even better about it, popular YouTube reviewer Dave2D (Dave Lee) says he thinks it's the nicest looking phone Samsung has ever made. I don't know if I'd go that far, but it's at least top 5 or 10 for me. Looking forward to getting my phone.

I put in the estimated ship date in the Samsung order (Aug. 19 for me). It worked.

Why requisite? Plenty of us never use a case. Definitely agree with that second sentence.

Started from the bottom!

The Mystic White sure is tempting. Not surprised it's been a popular option. If I didn't already have the S10 in white and the S10e and Lite both in white for a little while, I probably would have done the same. But I've been jonsing for a gold-ish smartphone for a while. Been waiting for a...
