The LTE version will be an exclusive for T-Mobile for a few months in the U.S.

AT&T corporate store has no idea when they will get them.

Not to my knowledge unless you're referring to the blue 512 variant which is pretty much on back order everywhere.

Maybe. I'm posting from a 512 blue at&t

2 of the 3 t-mobile stores in my area still haven't received any and the 3rd sold out yesterday. They're supposed to get me one for tomorrow to trade my s3 frontier for. T-mobile is gonna give me $160 for my frontier which will almost pay it off. Besides the mst I'm hoping it's a better watch than the turd frontier.

What makes your frontier a turd? Honestly asking as I have one myself and considering upgrading to the galaxy watch.

Mine has been horrible since the Tizen 3.0 update. Barely make it a day on the battery, it's horribly laggy and almost never wakes when lifting my arm to check the time. Barely even wear it anymore, because it makes me mad everytime I use it.

Must be a defective unit. My experience is the exact opposite. Best smartwatch I've owned so far and I've owned about 6 so far.

What is your source for that? Did T Mobile cut some deal with Samsung ? Or does AT&T not want it?

I even got a replacement and it didn't do much better. Was hoping my replacement wasn't updated, but it was. Currently rocking the galaxy watch and it much better.

Does anyone know if Verizon will eventually get it? I'm particularly interested in the 42mm rise gold with LTE.

I tried to hold out for verizon, but got impatient and bought a bluetooth one. No one at Samsung or Verizon would/could tell me when it would be released.

Friendly FYI for those interested in the AT&T LTE version... I just tried again today, both Samsung and AT&T just to see if I could get a ballpark expected ETA. Result...nothing. Both companies told me there were no indications of the LTE watch being released anytime soon. I just decided to grab another Gear S3 LTE for now and see what happens around the holiday.

The real question is, will Sprint have an LTE model? They didn't for the Gear S3 so I skipped right by the Sprint store and dealt with the mess of activating the T-Mobile version without a phone on the account. It was well worth it!

Yep, but that's another topic for another post.
