I cant believe the wait you guys are having. Pre ordered mine and got it on the 27th. Then ordered the regular S21 because it was basically free to have except the actual service and got that same week I ordered. Lucky I guess

Yes the 800 trade-in promo is still going on at T-Mobile.
My friend on T-Mobile just saw where I got the Ultra and was asking about it cause she has an S9 plus and I told her how you could of gotten $800 and free accessories for pre-ordering. She said she didn't care about the accessories but for $800 she might as well upgrade but then she went to t-mobile to order and it said $90 only. I'm guessing the $800 deal was before the 29th when the phone actually came out. She said she was going to go into her store and see. I saw where Samsung was giving $350 plus $150 in accessories but they didn't have the 256 that she was looking at only unlocked. Does anyone know if this deal is still going on for the $800?

My friend went today and ordered one she won't get it for a while though. She got the 512 and then went home and told her husband about it and now he's getting one too they're going back to the store tomorrow. But in a whimbefore she really knew everything she ordered one from Samsung last night and believe it or not it already shipped she couldn't cancel she has to return it when it comes.

They have S9 and S9 plus right now. She saw me post about it on Facebook and was asking about it. I told her so far we love it. Can you still get any Samsung freebies it was that just for pre-order?

Did it actually get picked up by UPS? Mine's only a label no destination scan yet

Yep, it arrived in my town yesterday morning. Will be delivered by 3pm Monday. I always get next day delivery but since it's the weekend, Monday is the soonest it will be to me. If yours is 2nd day air, you'll get it on Tuesday

What model did you get? The Phantom Black 256gb was delayed. I couldn't chance getting the 128gb model. I have 95gb on my S20 plus and with no SD card, I had to get more storage

Yes have 2nd shipping...unfortunately all I got was a label and no movement so I'm doubtful ill get it Tuesday... fortunately I already received my 128 gig ultra from Samsung. Com so I'm in no rush to get the phone...I found a pixel 4A on Facebook Marketplace for $100 so I thought, might as well trade it in and take advantage of the trade-in deal.

From Samsung she would still qualify for 100 Samsung credit and free tag.

Oh she would thanks what does she need to do to get that? I don't think they're getting their phones till close to the end of February beginning of March I guess the 512 ones are popular with T-Mobile also.

Speaking of the credit, I just got mine accepted today (to clarify: I did not actually get the credit, I just got approved to receive the credit).

No. Unfortunately the credits are only if you ordered directly from Samsung.

That's what I thought cause my friend and her husband just ordered through t mobile the other day so they get nothing since pre-order is over.

I got my phone today. Set-up and activate were easy and fast.

But when I went to register it on the Shop Samsung app, it registered as a 128 GB AT&T variant, and denied my $200 credit claim. The box says 256GB. The sim is T-Mobile. So now I'm on perpetual hold with tech help. *sigh* It is always something.

Did you double check the IMEI number?
