Exclusive Colors Delayed 5-6 Weeks!

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

I just checked the "track item" button (that opens DPD), and it's arriving today!? May not be the same for everyone, but it's worth checking! I'm excited. DPD can be surprising with their shipping speed!

(And Samsung can be surprising too, just the bad type haha)
 
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.

Haha I have a few scruffs on top and bottoms of my note10 plus too. Nothing major. Yeah I got amfilm glass protector on my note10 plus. Does pretty well. Fingerprint sensor can be hit and miss at times. That would be a cool look if they made one. I got the flip 3 also. Great phone. Just prefer the fold 3 over it. I like it for days I just want to fold the flip 3 into a smaller square like and have something easier in the pocket lol. Oh cool. I was a big Motorola fan. Had one of the Droids til I went to a Verizon store and saw either note 2 or note 3 and yeah Samsung stole me away and been with them every since lol.
 
Finally my Red, 256 Ultra is out for delivery. I do have a question for you all; With all of the hassle we have gone through or still going through, what is your thoughts on sending in your trade before your additional items have shipped? My Watch4 estimated delivery has changed (for the sixth time) and now extended out to April 6th. The watch4 delivery has varied, starting with March 8th and the date has bounced around the whole month of March and, just this morning, changed again to April 6th. I am afraid if I send in my trade, the Watch will continue to bounce around and it will never ship and Samsung will hope I will just "let it go". I feel the trade should be mailed back when the complete order has been satisfied. What are your thoughts?

I can't understand Samsung. I made a separate order for the watch4 on March 11. Fedex says it will be delivered tomorrow.
 
My device has arrived. Watch4 has yet to ship.

I got mine today as well! I don't understand what to do with my trade-in though. There's a return label in the box, and there's a piece of paper that says to read the enclosed leaflets to know what to do about the trade-ins... But there is no enclosed leaflets! Do you also have the same problem if you've done a trade-in? Honestly the Samsung logistics is beyond awful...

Yeah I see what you mean, very unprofessional!
I assume they want you to attach the printed label to your box and ship off. I will probably send via Special delivery to make sure I'm covered. I have not done trade ins before but I have done one or two upgrade programs where you send the old device in, they usually send a blue bag for that.

I did do a quick unboxing video after work today, the Note 20 Ultra was focus hunting a little but it gives you an idea, excuse the dirty hands :)

Thanks, I'll do that then! I traded my Galaxy S7 for an S10+, so that was 3 years ago, but I'm pretty sure they sent packaging for it.

Nice video! I've worked late tonight so have not had a chance to set my phone up yet, but I'm pretty pleased with the colour. I know a lot of people kind of complain the red is quite orangey, but I like it, it's different, and goes well with the black sides!

EDIT: apparently you're not supposed to send the phone back with that label in the same box as the new phone, and they'll either send a return box later, or you need to ask for one. According to these 2 threads I found: https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s22-series/where-s-my-return-package/m-p/5086622 and https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s22-series/no-upgrade-return-package/m-p/5085225

Mine has landed, 1 day late cause of course fedex shows up for the 10 minutes I left the house. Sweet so far, barely used it cause of all the updates and signing stuff.

Woohoo. Congrats:) Glad you got yours. My fedex app had a pickup scan yesturday and origionally said friday 3/25 for delivery but fedex sent me an email last night saying rescheduled delivery for today by 8pm but I doubt that. It left Forth Woth, Texas at 9:28pm last night and highly doubt it going to be near me in Georgetown Indiana for delivery today. It's happened before in past with a samsung phone but doubt it this time cause in past orders from samsung end up in Memphis, Tennessee hub before it gets to Louisvile, Ky to be delivered to me. Unless they have changed things this time around I expect another rescheduled delivery email for back to friday which is fine. As long as it is coming and fedex driver don't act like they can't see mailbox with address on it and say they tried to deliver but I wasn't home. Fedex is bad here a lot of time since I'm in the country area. UPS is better here. Guess we will see. But enough of my blabbling haha. I hope you enjoy your phone.
 
My Samsung S22 Ultra Red arrived today. I do have to say I am disappointed in what they call red lol. I would call this Salmon. My friend ordered the same phone and color. He says it reminds him of the color of catchup and Mayonnaise when they mix on your Burger King Whopper. Sadly, I say he is right lol. I do like that it is a color besides black. This is not a red phone. I will enjoy it though. I like that the S pen is the color of the phone also.
 
If there would be another phone, besides the iPhone 13 pro max, that i would be interested in, i would've have cancelled this ultra long time ago. This is ridiculous.
 
Got my phone earlier this afternoon, loving it so far, but I can't get the Spotify 3 months free. Can't find 'Spotify Premium for Samsung' to redeem. All I see is Premium Individual, Premium Student, Premium Duo and Premium Family. Any ideas, why?
 
Argh....my sky blue s22 ultra just arrived at 2:34am at a fedex destination sort facility in Louisville, Kentucky which is 30 or so minutes from me. So so close lol.
 
Jewels you see progress hopefully get it soon

Thanks. Yeah it was delivered at 11:33am. I just now got around to opening it. I'm charging it before turning it on. But once it is set up and such I'll take pics and post it here.
