Exclusive Colors Delayed 5-6 Weeks!

Missed delivery by 10 minutes, Fedex wouldn't send the driver back and neither them or Samsung will allow changes to the shipping, what about us people who work Mon-Fri during the day? Not sure why it can't be held for pickup.
 
After watching Flossy's unboxing of the red, I'm glad I went with phantom black :)

I do like the flat black sides though.
 
Anybody like me, with no movement on the app or site, get a phone yet? Anyone who ordered on the 11th get theres?
 
Missed another delivery because FedEx nor Samsung cares about me receiving the phone, both are finger pointing.
 
Red looks like a red coral to me. Not bad, just not what I'd want if I wanted red. The sky blue is nice. I do really like that matte black frame and the matching s pens. I think graphite could have been my choice this year if the ship dates hadn't been pushed out from the jump. I still think it's silly they couldn't have made a certain amount of each to be prepared, but I know this year's launch was a bit of a mess on many levels.

Good to see they're trickling out though! If you hate the one you got, considered a skin/wrap. You'd still keep that cool frame at least and not have to wait and hassle with a return. You can replace the s pen if you really hate its current color (maybe just stash the og for future trade/sale).

Ordered and confirmed on 11, no movement on Slate 256 - it’s was “scheduled” to be delivered by March 18. Been in “customizing” status for weeks with cancel button - checked Samsung Financing and the charge is still pending.
 
Still no news on my red one. Website still shows "arriving on 14/03". Maybe it'll time travel back to me lol.

My date was 14th also, status is still on 'Headed to your Country' I think it's coming via Donkey!

All the 'Online exclusive colours' are showing as 7 week lead time now on Samsung UK website.
Also I like how they have included "Trade-In values are significantly lower for Galaxy S22 phones in our exclusive colours than those for standard colour phones" now.
All colours were the same deal when I pre-ordered on 9th Feb, they have obviously been flooded with the Online Exclusive orders.

Sigh, today’s email.

Red, 256 Ultra with Watch4. Well, once again my watch expected delivery date has changed. It started with original delivery by 2/28 and has extended out several times. It changed again today. Now it says “ expected delivery by April 9th. I also checked my AMEX and the pending charge for my phone has dropped off. All of this was ordered on 2/9. Unbelievable!!!!! This ordeal has really caused me to despise Samsung. I am about ready to unload my Flip 3 and the rest of my Samsung devices and continue on with Crapple.
 
In the beginning all the reasons I hated them, android excelled at. Over time, more and more, google as well as Samsung have become closer and closer to what Apple does and Apple has improved in some of those areas. I was a palm pre guy. We just don't see that kind of separation within these devices. Certain things we expect companies like samsung to adhere to is consistency. Samsung makes many of its own parts. They have enough infrastructure and market share, they should handle these things better. Apple is still the RadioShack of cell phones. But they do it better and boy do they know how to milk there base.
 
Got my phone today thankfully along with the rest of the pre-order goodies I got. Yeesh that was way more stressful than what I wanted. S22U Sky Blue 256GB.

Congrats. I can't wait to hold that pretty sky blue. Hopefully us ones with the April 8th delivery date sees some movement soon. So you like the color better in person in the pic? It looks so clean with the blue with black sides.

Update lol: I say about an hour or so before I quoted your post I had the cancel button still. I just checked at 11:15pm and cancel button is gone and went from customizing to in Process. That's something so I'll take it lol.

Just checked mine and it changed from customizing to in process. Woo-hoo.
 
Delivery today. Only 2 days late. Wish I'd gotten it yesterday to give me 2 play days before I'm back to work. Spent what little time I had to myself signing into all my apps and opening things at least once.

There's a couple of weird things, like maps minimizing when I connect to my car, I'm sure I could figure it out if I had more time. Otherwise things are going well. Still going through everything screen by screen and setting by setting.
