Nope, still waiting.. Never received a confirmation email nor did I ever receive tracking information. All I know is that I got charged and that my order is "processing". Mind you that's what they told me yesterday when I called, and I ordered on the 29th! lol :-\

Ordered my silver S8+ from VZW on 4/18. It shipped today via Fedex for delivery tomorrow. Looks like they are trying to get them to us for launch.

Ordered mine through Sprint. I was surprised to find it on the front porch yesterday evening. I never received a shipping notice and was told it wouldn't be delivered until Friday.
Also ended up having to do a factory reset because the first attempt to activate failed. Sprint was surprisingly helpful.

Pre-ordered mine last night at 10AM, it was on the fedex truck this morning, and en route to be delivered by 10AM tomorrow... i feel bad for the suckers that had to wait weeks. I think the samsung way way way Underperformed in sales, even more so if i was able to grab one the day before launch... at 10Pm... and still have it on launch day lol
Good news is.. first android phone ever, coming from 9 long years with apple

I ordered mine through Best Buy at midnight on the pre-order day and just got an email from Best Buy saying my order is delayed up to 30 days. WTH! No more pre-ordering phones for me. I could just walk into Best buy and get one today.
Wow that sucks. My preorder experience with Samsung has been less than stellar but at least they're pulling through and getting folks their phones by today. Still, I think next time I will avoid the drama and just buy in a store on release day.

Or pre-order from another outlet. If you go in store on launch day they may not have the color that you want.

This is absolutely ridiculous now.
Phone didn't arrive by end of day. Nor did tracking number I was promised.
Call Samsung this morning. Speak to a supervisor.
Tells me my card was authorised on the 6th when I ordered, than cancelled.
Authorised again on the 13th and that expired.
Authorised again the other day and still got this "new" status which nobody can explain.
Supervisor very apologetic but can't work out what is going on. Says she is going to have to escalate this to her higher manager because there have been a number of "crazy orders" which are still in the preorder phase. Blatantly, this hasn't been shipped out.
Anyway, she said she would call me back "hopefully within the hour". Not that I expect anything. But I'll be calling her back in 61 mins if nothing.
So furious about this. I've spent hours on the phone being fed all kinds of crap from different operators who just seem to have no idea what's going on but don't say that.
Threatened to cancel my order and go to T-Mobile as they do next day shipping but want to just make sure Samsung can't fix this now and get it out on a same day ship so I get it today first. Also because if I order T-Mobile and then decide to send it back, I have to cancel the plan and for long, boring reasons I won't go into, that opens up a world of pain.

I was in the same boat with the note 7. My order was cancelled FOUR times. To make this worse, everyone I spoke to was clueless.This is absolutely ridiculous now.

The 28th is the world launch day. I believe North America's release date for the phones is the 21st.
