AT&T: Galaxy S9/S9+ Official Pre-Order Thread

[calircr]

yeah, my order has been in "Preparing to Ship" mode since last Friday. When I contacted them, I get multiple answers. The usual 1) estimated ship dates are between 3/13-3/15, 2) your order will be shipped on 3/14 with an expected delivery of 3/19.

It can be so fun to get new device. I hope everyone enjoys their new phones and doesn't have any problems with them.

Thanks, here hoping for no day 1 glitches

I don't get all the complaints about this phone. This thing is AWESOME!

no march security update OTA. maybe on the 16th? there is a 250 odd mb update floating around.

Me envious!

 

[shnweller]

I don't get the complaints. My only thing might be to upgrade from the S9 to the Plus. Not sure yet.

 

[evernolasco191]

You can avoid the fee with sprint tbh. There isn't any fee and honestly it's the cheapest option to get the S9 or S9 plus.

just a heads up for people with crappy coverage, I have full bars on this phone. 1 to 2 bars on the s8. the radios on the 845 are amazing. I might be on another LTE band now.

Shnweller I'm thinking the same... I'll play with my s9 for a week before I decide. I know it doesn't bother many or they like it but I just can't get over the screen size.

 

[tadpoles]

I'm gonna go to Best Buy and play with one.

What time did you order and what color?

 

[tadpoles]

So there is a chance some could walk into an AT&T store and get a s9+ before someone that pre-ordered. I will have self control.

Yeah, AT&T is pathetic. At this one everyone will have one before AT&T preorder people.

 

[KP8819]

After using my S9 for the day I think I'm sticking with it... So far it's really fast & love the size. The 2nd camera for zoom & 2 GB RAM doesn't matter to me. Only thing I'd want is the bigger battery but it's not enough to exchange for the S9+.

Lovin the Coral Blue... It doesn't look anything like the pics. A much darker blue in hand.

Hope everyone gets their's soon. It's BS if you pre ordered and don't have it by Friday at the latest!

the rep I spoke with stated that I had just passed the fraud verification (meaning my order was not fraudulent). Then they stated that I should get a tracking number today or tomorrow. They said if I get a tracking number tomorrow, I would/should get my phone tomorrow.

what I want to know is.....how much of that should I believe? pretty skeptical now.

Oh and they were able to tell my phone is being shipped from Texas.

Sounds shady... Fraud verification, idk maybe I guess.

How would you get your phone tomorrow if you just get the tracking # the same day?

Yeahhhh, I was told I would have it tommorow too, but my order still says "preparing to ship". No way it gets here tomorrow. Think they just tell everyone that to get them off the phone.

 

[calircr]

I agree - highly doubt the validity of their statement. I even asked for clarification, if I get a tracking number tomorrow I will have it delivered from Texas to California - Same day?? they said yes.... in today's day and age, it is possible.

I laughed so hard.
