Galaxy S5: Release Dates & Order/Shipping Discussion

[cmhsam]

Just checked my tracking info and it still looks like the items are at DFW and have not left. Hoping it gets to Columbus distro today for scheduled delivery tomorrow, the 10th.

Mine still says delivery today but not likely since the tracking says it is still in Dallas as of 1 am this morning.

If you miss a usps delivery, you just go to the office and pick up.

TMobile here and last time stamp was 12:44am 4/8th in Louisville KY, nothing else for well over 30 hours. Bummer. Hope it wasn't stuck somewhere. Strange it takes over 30 hours from KY to NYC with no interim time stamps.

UPS Ground - but still, it's been well over 30 hours. They usually have an update much sooner than 30 hours.

Yikes. UPS is usually very good about updating. I would call and have them put a tracer on it.

My S5 has made it to my local post office! Just waiting on its status to change to "Out for delivery" Hopefully the work day goes by fast!

EDIT: It is now out for delivery! Woohoo!

Yep! Which seems odd.

still kinda upset that some who ordered on 3/21 are not getting phone first. but oh well.

I totally agree, especially since the confirmation email said that orders would be fulfilled on a first come first serve basis

Mine just updated to distro location in Indiana...

That is pretty typical, UPS isn't bad in a lot of areas. If it says delivery for tomorrow it will be there; barring the unforeseeable. The arrival scan at the sorting facility to the hub in your area happens within hours. Also, UPS doesn't always update every single stop on their tracking from what I have noticed, I work for a company where we ship out thousands of products a day mostly through FedEx, but UPS does the same thing in regards to their updates.

It looks like they shipped out in waves for those who live the furthest from KY. I am in California, so that is likely why mine shipped out sooner than some others. It seems that T-Mobile is doing their best to get the phones to everyone by Friday at the latest for those that pre-ordered.

Considering I was told that I may not get my phone until next week, I'm pretty happy that I will be getting mine tomorrow, good excuse to take a day off from work.

Mine has made it from Fort Worth to the hub in Memphis! Will be using flightaware.com to track the FedEx flights from memphis to my city and match it up with my tracking so I can watch my phone fly here!

 

[Dramer77]

Mine is on the truck for delivery...

 

[Brandon Barnes1]

Lucky.... Mine has arrived in Memphis. On another note Gear 2 Neo's are now on backorder with AT&T

 

[jcmartin0313]

Here is funny shipping fact: I live in Fort Worth, where the phones come from. FedEx picked it up in my town, sent it to Dallas and then sent it back to Fort Worth for delivery. Due to be delivered tomorrow. Sitting in a FedEx center in Fort Worth.
