Ordered the 256GB S21, only comes in one color choice which is grey. Got 400 trade value for my S10 with cracked camera lens, put down $100 and ended up with 24 monthly payments of $17 and change.

Could be an account specific offer as Verizon has been doing that a lot lately. Definitely a lot more than what Samsung would give you for a G7 lol. Also you will qualify for the standard Samsung credit since you pre-ordered.

We ordered the 512 through Samsung Shop app got $550 for our S10 Pluses and $260 in accessory credit. Our phones our unlocked now and we came from Sprint. This will be our 1st Verizon phone. We have had signal issues since We've had the S 10+. My husbands was worse than mine and he had to get a new motherboard put in right after we got these phones he had to send it in for repair and his is great now and he gets signal where he didn't with Sprint. I didn't want to send mine in cause it wasn't as bad. I hope it's better now with these new phones. I mean for him to have signal and I don't in the same places right now and my pictures take forever to send. I've reset network connections gotten new sim it was a known issue with S10's. I should o f sent mine in also but now I am excited for the S21 Ultra and decided I wanted to try Verizon one. I had all Sprint phones than 3 unlocked mainly cause I knew I was eventually going to switch. But sending a picture now shouldn't take a couple minutes or longer to send. I can't wait to try out the Verizon phone. Just hate that you could only get black.

I ordered the 512GB in phantom black. This morning at 1.30am I get an email stating my order was canceled due to the carrier could not activate my phone. So I called Verizon and they were no help. I checked with Samsung and they had no idea why the order was canceled. I decided to try the Verizon order again and it told me the 512GB phone was only available Unlocked. At this point I was not happy so I decided to just get the unlocked phone and be done with it. The only thing that sucked was the smart things cam was not available any more. So now I have an unlocked phone it may be time to leave Verizon. Has anyone had any experience with Spectrum Mobile.

I switched to Spectrum Mobile and have been very happy. Been with them about 8 months. With my new S21 Ultra I just have to call them when I get the IMEI number of the phone for them to send me out a provisioned SIM card.

I ordered through Verizon the S21 Ultra w/512k Phantom Black. I traded in my Moto Z4 and got $600. I did the 30 month payments after rebate of around $25 for a cost of $750.

Yeah I was having issues ordering through samsung for a Verizon phone. Then they sold out of the 512. So I wound up just going through Verizon which wasn't so bad bc they gave me 600 for my phone that samsung wouldn't take and got my 512 gig. I just bought the buds pro bc of the extra money I saved. Sucks you can't get the store credit. Probably could've through best buy.

What really amazes me about Verizon and what is so uncharacteristic of them is the fact that they give the $600 deal to existing customers. That is the first time in my ~20 years with them that I've seen that!

Yeah at first it showed only 350. But the time I actually ordered it it quoted me 600 so I was like yep taking that lol. Sucks or gets taken off the bill monthly tho vs like going to samsung or best buy who gives it to you instantly. But I didn't have a phone to trade that qualified for a discount bc I'm keeping my note 20 ultra

If you ordered a Verizon phone from Samsung I've only ordered unlocked from them in the past will it come with a sim card? Verizon did tell me from ordering online even if from Samsung activation would be 20 instead of 40. We've only been with Verizon for a little over a year left Sprint for them and brought over our unlocked S10+.

I got a S21 in Grey. With the $100 credit i got Earbuds which i will use instead of my jaybird freedom which kinda suck and a charge pad that i don't need so i'll give it to a friend.
Its going to be nice having Verizon Visual Voicemail back!(my unlocked s20 could not get it on Verizon). I will miss Samsung Pay working everywhere. I only use it a handful of times a year but it was still nice to know it was there just incase.

At check out it had a line for activation fee and it said $0.00 so i'm hoping that means they waived it.

Nice! We came to Verizon a little over a year ago with unlocked phones S10 Plus. I've never used visual voicemail I have an app called you mail that I like. And I too use Samsung pay every so often but I guess it won't be that big of a deal.

Yes, it will come with the sim card installed.

Thanks! All the time with Sprint and CDMA we didn't get a sim card to put in our phone. Verizon was a 1st for us. This will be my 1st Verizon phone only been with them a little over a year.

I couldn't resist VZ trade-in offer of $600 on my pixel 2xl. I went with the S21 Ultra 256 in black, according to VZ it will be delivered on the 29th. Been with VZ for over 20years no plans to leave.

Yeah I am glad we did Verizon ones this time. We had unlocked the past couple times and came to Verizon from Sprint with our S10+ which we owned. Now I am getting Verizon ones and can't wait. Verizon is so much better than Sprint but my phone had signal problems in the beginning it's the phone cause hubby got his fixed I didn't mine wasn't as bad as his but isn't the best but better than Sprint. His is so much better compared to Sprint. So I am really excited to get this phone.
