Samsung.com Orders

Quick question guys and gals... My phone was picked up this morning and is set to arrive on 3/4. In the past, shipper restrictions wouldn't allow me to have it held at a local FedEx store or Walgreens. But for some reason this time it is allowing me to do it.

If I choose to have it held at a store, it won't mess with my delivery date, will it? It will still arrive on 3/4 but just at a store instead?

I'm off work on 3/4 so it shouldn't be a problem being here and signing for it. But it would be more convenient to not have to be here if I don't need to. At the same time I don't want to mess up the delivery date at all haha.

Thoughts?

You should be good - I tried to have mine held at the FedEx location - they actually called and it was already on the truck for delivery.
 
well, for what it's worth, @hailsusy90: i did NOT pay the extra $14 and i feel dumb now, as my phone won't arrive till tomorrow.

i'd rather pay the $14 and have the phone today.
I don't even have a tracking number or label for mine. Just for the buds. I have no idea when the phone is coming. No charge either on my card which is what worries me the most.
 
I have my buds+ coming too on wednesday, but still no label made for my ATT Ultra 128 Black from Samsung..

that's odd. for me, i have a tracking number for the phone and a separate number for the 45-watt charger, but the earbuds+ have not yet been shipped out nor is there a label generated yet even!
 
Quick first impressions (I'm WFH and actually should do some work...): Currently use Pixel 4 XL and iPhone 11 Max. It feels fine in the hand, very reminiscent of the Max except a touch taller. Screen is gorgeous, as always with Samsung. I turned on 120hz first thing and yes it is indeed buttery smooth. Lovely.

Activated it with t-mo, transfer of apps from pixel 4 went smoothly. Attached a photo taken of one of the unfortunate cats launched from my lap earlier, but now happily perched there again. Note: the room this was taken in had dim lighting...the camera brightened things up wonderfully, so it's a great first impression.

Quick edit to add this photo was taken with default settings, just tapped the shutter button and done...

Glad to hear it and photo looks good. Can u turn of 5g?
 
I wonder if the area has anything to do with how they are shipping them out. I've seen people mostly in other states. Anyone from Florida have a label?

If you order from Walgreens, it will be available roughly the same time as it would have been delivered at your house -- likely it is the same truck dropping it off at Walgreens. If you elect to pick it up from the "warehouse" (mine was listed as FedEx Ship Center or something like that), then it should be available first thing in the morning.

What is killing me, since mine was picked up on Saturday it is showing as being at the warehouse (FedEx Destination Facility) but I apparently can't pick it up until tomorrow morning. On the off chance I could get it, I stopped by today and was told it is still "containerized," with other packages they received last night for delivery tomorrow, so my package still needs to be unpacked and sorted with others in the container. Oh well, I'll still have it three days early. And, in my case, my Buds+ have been picked up and are scheduled for Wednesday (guess I'll be going to FedEx three days in a row, after my unsuccessful attempt today).
 
I think it was for 1 day shipping. But if I end up getting it Friday it'll be money wasted cause you would at least think you'd get it a day early. I haven't been charged either but they shipped the buds so I'm wondering if the phone is now backordered. It doesn't appear as such on the order though.

I understand the frustration, but if it was for shipping, then it doesn't matter if it shipped yesterday or ships thursday, as long as it gets to you in one day, then you are getting what you paid for. the charge wasn't for a guarantee to get it early (or even on time). You assume that will happen, but its not a guarantee.
 
So how are you guys, like me, that won't be home handling this signature req'd thing? On Fedex website I can't request they hold it at a local Fedex center or anything.

I hit up Samsung via the live chat and requested they lift restrictions and they said it'll take 24hrs but I woke up this morning and was able to hold all my stuff at Walgreens
 
Time to have fun.

Wow that sucks i see people here preordered last week i preordered on Friday from AT&T and both came today and i didn't pay any extra money to get it early like some here did.
 
I've gotten no movement on my tracking number and it's estimated for delivery on Wednesday. I'm hoping that I see some sort of scan today
