Exclusive Colors Delayed 5-6 Weeks!

[Barib110]

Nice to see some movement, some guy on Samsung members forum mentioned that we will get delivery on 24th here in the UK I'll believe that when I see it

Knowing Samsung UK, we won't hear anything until DPD sends a delivery text... So, the night before it arrives. Still, can't wait!!

I read on another forum that someone rang Samsung UK customer service and was told they're not expecting any stock of Exclusive colours to arrive until April now.

Ah well, time will tell. Customer service however, will not tell

Yeah I really like the aura blue plus the s-view case that kind of matched it. I wish they had a similar light blue s-view case this time around but what can you do lol. Blue is also my favorite color.

I got everything working, had to reset a few, no biggie, it happens, now they are in 1Password for sure.

I'll miss my Note 10+ but it has been randomly freezing so yeah time for an upgrade, I skipped the N20 and was on the fence due to it being the last phone with MST from Samsung and the S21 not having the silo for the S-spen was not great so I skipped. With how phones are, 3-4 years now is a nice cadence on replacing. I'm also going from a non-5G model up to 5G and already have the plan so was all set, just pop in SIM card and go. I checked over my N10+ compared to my S22U and looks like I can factory reset my N10+ to get it ready to go.

I used to have that case but gave it to a friend. It was nice tho. Guess that type just not my favorite. Lol. And yeah Samsung definitely don't have matching cases for all of the colors. Maybe one day but with the blue I'm going with clear cases this time around. I hate the fact they attract fingerprints and the constant cleaning but it is what it is when it comes to showing that pretty color. I got a vrs clear case coming tomorrow. I might find a matte like clear one.

That's good to hear you got that all good to go.

I understand that. My husband was surprised I skipped the note20 since I've been a big note fan since the note 2 or 3. But the fold 2 came out and I was curious so got it instead lol. Of course I'm on fold 3 now but also want a candy bar style phone too. Lol. The blue is a added bonus.

I do like the protection the s-view gives when it's shoved into a pocket, like mine seems to get a decent amount of the time haha. The old one didn't protect the top or bottom, not sure when they added that but it's a very welcome addition, my top and bottom of my note10+ were all scuffed up.

I may look into alternative cases, I'm going without screen protector for now, I had the original on the N10+ and it was ratty by the time I yanked it off to send it back. Might give it a couple months and see what pops up, I would like a clear, but as you said, constant cleaning, especially taking the phone out and cleaning the case. I'd kill for a clear backed s-view, I know it has some sort of NFC in it as the N10+ recognized it, but i wouldn't mind a small amount of circuitry lol.

I've messed with the folds at BB, not quite sold on them just yet. My co-worker moved from iPhone to Flip but said if Apple brings a flip out he'll flip back instantly. I'm going to give it until I am ready to move on from the S22U to see where they are.

I started Android with Nexus but went Note right off with Samsung.

Movement on my order and others on Samsung members forum, preparing dispatch, tracking button which doesn't work yet but its progress, yay!

 

[Barib110]

No way!!! I got an email from Samsung saying it's due 24th March! That's a nice surprise. To recap it's exclusive Sky Blue, due on 14th originally, UK

 

[donb2010]

Delivery update, according to FedEx estimated delivery date is Thursday, March 24th, but at Samsung.com expected Delivery is March 23rd. I'll have to wait and see who's right.

 

[nuangel2]

Great to see some progress

Ok, I'm worried as I didn't get an email! Mine was also due on 14th (Red, pre-ordered 9th of Feb).

Check your tracking page, I think my email was just from Customer Service (I called them on Sunday). I hope your phone is the same "shipping batch", if not hopefully it comes soon!

Yes! Tracking page has now been updated, and I've just received an email from DPD saying 24th.

Glad the April date was false, at least 24th is "only" 2 weeks late (delivery in 4 weeks should have been by 9th of March)...

 

[evohicks]

So I just received a notification from DPD for Thursday delivery yay.

 

[Jewels81]

Woohoo. While Samsung site and app says April 8 and in process, I saw the tracking info pop up in my fedex app. Shipping info sent to FedEx at 6:24pm. Anticipated ship date tomorrow and estimated delivery date this Friday. Can't wait to get my hands on my sky blue lol. So I'll basically get it 2 weeks earlier than estimated date when ordered as long fedex plays nice. Yay. Just need to order a screen protector. I'm bout to go pick my case up from my po box in a few lol

Graphite touchdown this evening! Sorry for the evening pic, It’s actually a bit darker than the pics in RL.

 

[1raygin]

That looks sweet!

I ordered the Red S22 Ultra 512MB unlocked on 02-10-2022 only because the website was having problems or it would have been on the 9th, as it is I had to call Samsung directly to have them make the order over the phone? Samsung really needs to work on their ordering procedure and make it better. This has been the worst experience ever in ordering a Samsung phone from them. They under supplied, they should have only taken pre-orders for what they could deliver by launch day. My phone is supposed to be here by 3-24-22 by 8pm. Argg...

Congrats on getting your new toy. I had originally ordered the Graphite 256gb then cancelled since it looked like it would be delayed and got a Black 512gb so much sooner. Enjoy!

Just now got text and email from Samsung saying that my phone left their distribution center and it on it's way to me. Says they expect my phone to be delivered Thursday March 24th. We will see when fedex does the pick up scan which date is correct. I'm suspecting Friday March 25th being the correct date. But then again I have had a phone from Samsung come the next day before. We will see.
