BestBuy S10/+: Pre-Order Thread

lol also still waiting on TWO S10's. Flamingo Pink and Prism White. all they offered me in "compensation" was a $25 giftcard. ridiculous since they said ~april 9-11 it will ship, so they're not even completely sure.

Oh wow that's crazy! Yeah they gave me a $25 gift card ended up having 225 in Best Buy gift cards plus got 550 for my phone so I did pretty good on my unlocked flamingo pink S10 plus.

Now I want one more thing I just gave my husband my gear S3 it was so big for me and I got the Galaxy watch the smaller 42 mm one and I love it. They gave my husband $25 off of something from Samsung and I want the duo new charger that charges your phone wirelessly the fast 2.0 new one and it charges your watch. But it's the new one that just came out. For some reason they sent him two $25 promos you can only use one at a time.

I am surprised you didn't get active... It is brand new. I would have one if it didn't look so small on my wrist....LOL
 
Well I haven't had much time to play with it. But I think it's finally set up the way I want it and I've logged into all my apps. I need to tweak some settings but I love it the screen is awesome it's really fast.

I'm still unsure about the battery and people say it takes about a week of usage. All my stuff came back from the backup except I think my edge screen wasn't the same which is no big deal and then I messed up my watch and thought it backed up and I had to reset my watch and start over but other than that everything's great. I love the color, I love my cases with the new popsocket I've never used those before. It's just so easy to hold my phone and swipe or talk to text now LOL! This phone is lighter than my 9 plus so I'm scared and trying to be so careful with it.
What case did u get?

Well they said active was more for fitness like a FitbitI didn't think it would do everything my gear S3 did like show text and reply and receive phone calls and other stuff. I thought it mainly focused on s health and steps and exercise.
 
Here's my 3 cases I blason I never had before I like the cosmo light the white one with the pink and I just found a popsocket with matching colors. that I bought a second popsocket before I knew I was going to have three cases and it was going to go on this purple Cosmo full body which I haven't used yet.then I ended up getting the Spigen clear glitter case which I'm using now and I put my other popsocket on it. And it's really pretty showing our color phone in the picture it shows the white phone. but I like these new swappable popsockets cuz you can still wireless charge your phone by taking the top off. So I may buy one more for the purple case if I end up using it but I've been using this clear one for a week now. I wanted this symmetry pink and green called gradient that came with a matching gradient popsocket but I never did get it or could find it in stock

Anyway this isn't the cases thread sorry enjoy your phone I just love it I get compliments on it all the time it's just so pretty! I'm still debating whether I want to setup my fingerprint or not for now I just double tap and look at the phone I'm fine with that. and I don't even have a theme on my phone and I was addicted to things on my 9 plus unless there's a theme that has the same background I love the background that was on the phone cuz it has the phone color and it it's nice.

I uploaded three pictures and I only see one.

Can I not post 3 pics at once? I'm on my one so let's see if the other 2 show up. This is the one that's really pretty with our pink phone.

No it does everything the same the only difference is no twistable bezels and smaller battery basically.

Oh cause it's much cheaper. I didn't think it had a speaker on it. Oh well I like the Galaxy watch I just need new bands. The Gear S3 was just so big and the band that came with it was either too tight or to big depending on which hole it was in. This one fits perfect on me. I wish I could find a matching watch theme for my phone's wall paper background.
 
Oh cause it's much cheaper maybe I should of looked into it. I didn't think it had a speaker on it and thought it was more for fitness only like fitbit guess I was wrong.

Oh yes and no speaker I forgot to type that. But those were the only 3 differences. I have the Galaxy Watch and love it but a friend was switching and we both decided for the price she would just get the active! Not much missing for the price! But glad you like your Galaxy Watch!
 
So I learned today that the phone and the screen protector are pretty durable. My inside dog ran past me today when I was opening the front door and I dropped my phone and purse on our concrete porch to go chase him. I caught up to my dog. And my screen didn't crack. I just cracked the corner of the screen protector and scratched my clear case pretty bad.
 
If you message Samsung they can give you a claim number. I got mine already but when I was worried it wouldn't come in time I chatted with Samsung support online and they gave me a number saying if I didn't get the order in time I could still claim the buds.
 
I pre-ordered on 2/23 and still don't have my phone. I missed out on the pre-order bonuses.

I just stopped in because I was surprised to see the thread still riding kinda high. I figured maybe the topic had changed some, and it did, I noticed some watch talk where I had left off but to jump to the last page and find that someone still doesn't have their phone was a real surprise to me, especially a pre-order. What color did you order? I'm guessing that coral one. I really think that was more popular than they anticipated. Speaking of colors... I've noticed that my pearl white is more of teal or baby blue these days. Maybe it's because I've been looking at it for so long that color shift effect of it just doesn't seem white anymore but I swear it's changed colors. I thought lighting so I waited for the sun but nope still blueish.
 
It was the pink one. I contacted Samsung and they did tell me since I pre-ordered I should still be able to receive the preorder bonuses, so I'm happy about that. Now just need my dang phone :/
