Fedex tracking. Wow, my $600 trade in sat in Arizona for a few days, sent from Carlsbad CA. Then, crawled through Texas till, after 6 days, stuck in a snow delay in Arkansas. All the tracking said was "delivery date unavailable" for the entire time. Now, this morning, still no estimated delivery date, and still listed at the same town in Arkansas, but it says "in transit". 9 hour drive to Tennesee, so hoping it gets delivered. This isn't good though.

I agree about the keyboard cover adding some heft to it. Feels solid though. I like the fact that the s-pen stows inside the cover. The only thing I would have liked is the ability to open it and use the keyboard without having to use the kickstand at all. Kinda like the magic keyboard for the ipad.
The Samsung cover is more versatile though. I only really like the keyboard case due to the stand lol. I like all the different positions that it can stand in.

How long did it take to get it from bestbuy? Was the dates they gave accurate? Right now it says March 15.
A little later. It said I would get it release day(February 24th) and I received it a week later on March 2nd. Not upset though as I received both the tablet and the keyboard case. Many people that ordered on Samsung.com are still waiting for their case.

Ok thanks. Yeah I originally ordered the 128gb tab s8 ultra thru Samsung but saw bestbuy saying I could get the 256gb one on 3/15. So I canceled my Samsung order and ordered ftom bestbuy around 2:40am yesterday and USPS got it yesterday and it is so far scheduled for Tuesday. Can't wait. Might come Monday since it is a couple hours away from me. Now if Samsung could just ship my 256gb sky blue s22 ultra lol I do want the keyboard case eventually. Since bestbuy gave me a $100 gift card when I ordered I'm going to use that on the Samsung book cover that is $99.99. Probably use my $250 credit for pre-ordering the s22 ultra toward the keyboard case.

Checked my S8 Tab Ultra order today, order confirmed Feb 16 with expected delivery April 15, now expected April 29. Sigh, LOL, slipped by 2 weeks.

Recheck today, expected delivery has been updated again and moved up to April 12, 3 days earlier than initial scheduled.

Mines (S8U) been scheduled for week of Apr 13th since I ordered it on Feb 19th.

Looked on the shop to see what those dates would be and it's the same, week of Apr 13th.

So looks like that might be the next big release.

Finally see a shipping label created, ETA delivery for 3/17. Pre-ordered 2/15, 128GB S8 Ultra through Samsung.com. Was charged this past weekend, cancel button disappeared for the tab, still showing for the keyboard. Shipping dates showing for 4/8 for tab and 4/6 for keyboard.

Weight of package is 2 lbs.

thursday Samsung told me the keyboard case had been shipped. Its now three days later and FEDEX still says they haven't received it. I'm giving up hope that the delivery will be in time for my upcoming trip to Hawaii.

The ground shipment of my trade in S7+ all the way across the county in 12 days, and now this shipment to me from Texas have been very bad. Weather delays, bad or no updating of tracking info etc. My shipment is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow but I don't know if if its actually been shipped.

I got the same email. I just got an email from FedEx letting me know that my keyboard case will be delivered tomorrow. Now all I need is the tablet!

My Galaxy Tab S8 Plus shipping date got pushed back to the middle of April. I got tired of waiting so I ordered another one from samsung.com and chose to pick it up at Best buy. When I get my pre-order tablet I will just sell it.

Lol. Congrats. Hope you like it. I also didn't feel like waiting either when I ordered a 128gb tab s8 ultra from Samsung so I canceled and ordered a 256gb version from bestbuy on a Friday and got it delivered the following Monday. My first tab from Samsung. It's huge but love it. Love using the keyboard with it. Now when it comes to the s22 ultra in sky blue my cancel button gone but delivery still says April 8th. I want that so was willing to wait.

Thanks. I get impatient sometimes. And I'm just a tech fanatic so I couldn't wait anymore. I hope you're a phone comes soon.
