That's a pretty bold promise by Samsung. Don't think this applies to Samsung Canada
It's not bold at all. Package it today and ship it tomorrow.

True, but it would be less than they'd get if people bought from them directly.They would still get your money from a carrier or best buy.
Sounds good.Not me. Called them and they apologized for no email confirmation and assured me everything was placed fine.
I also think that the frustration is surrounding the fact that they plainly state on the site that if ordered direct we would receive the phones first. At the end of the day it is about Samsung managing expectations and as it stands right now, they have not done a stellar job of doing so. If they are gonna make a claim of that nature, they should be prepared to make it a reality. Now I fully acknowledge that this is not life or death or anything serious, but when it comes to the market of consumer electronics, people that pre-order are generally the ones that will be antsy for the phone and also the ones that will convince other "non-enthusiasts" to purchase the device. To me it would make sense that they do what they can to stay true to the promises they make on their website.
They plainly stated on the website that be the first to receive before anyone gets in store not first to receive compared to carrier pre orders or pre orders from other place. Their main message is get the phone before it's available for public to buy in stores. Come 20th and we don't have our phones then yes I'll also be out with pitch forks.I also think that the frustration is surrounding the fact that they plainly state on the site that if ordered direct we would receive the phones first.

I never saw that on their site.Imagine if the demand is greater and they don't process the orders in which they were received and us who ordered on 3/31 get backordered while ones who order today get theirs on time.
I'm confused what are people complaining about? The phone is supposed to arrive in 3 days
Samsung is using 2 day shipping so you won't get it in one day.Should get an email tomorrow, saying they've shipped. I've had items ship before across the country and be at my home in less than 24 hours before though.
Yes it'll be locked to TMobile and good luck getting that sim unlocked. You will get the run around between Samsung and T-Mobile.This is probably a stupid question but if I ordered the S8+ direct from Samsung.com on T-mobile carrier, will it come locked to TMo? I assume so otherwise it wouldn't have asked me which carrier I wanted it on.
I'm in the USA but i'm from the UK and i'm used to buying unlocked phones direct from the manufacturer back there.

Just received my shipment notification from Samsung.co. I checked the tracking number and the scheduled delivery date is showing as pending.......

Nice. I just checked again and still same as it has always been.
I needed unlocked too so I ordered the Verizon one as it comes unlocked.This is probably a stupid question but if I ordered the S8+ direct from Samsung.com on T-mobile carrier, will it come locked to TMo? I assume so otherwise it wouldn't have asked me which carrier I wanted it on.
