Samsung.com Pre-Orders

I sucked it up and ordered one too...same thing happened to me yesterday

Heck yeah!! Well, to you ordering one ... Not to the cancelation

 

[YankInDaSouth]

When did you order? I had this also happen just a few days after I ordered, but it was immediately followed up with new shipping date and label.

Ah, thanks for letting me know! Hopefully that trend continues with my order!!

I was late to the game and didn't place my order until this past Saturday (Feb 11th). That's why I'm not all that upset about it ... Figured they accidentally got me lumped in with the earlier crowd. Plus I ordered a custom color (Red) so I am actually expecting a delay.

I just noticed that mines got that screen flaw at the bottom right corner that was mentioned in the other post.

I'll do mine tomorrow afternoon. Had to take mom to the hospital. They said she has pneumonia and want to keep her a couple days and I'm not staying up until 3am to set my phone up when I'm not alert lol. Still have to clean my tablet up to send in as well.

May she have a fast and complete recovery.

Samsung must hate me too...mine sat in Memphis overnight and left this morning. Just got a text msg from FedX saying delivery tomorrow afternoon. Paid too much and then slow delivery while my husband is already full transitioned to his TMo carrier phone...

That's terrible. Have you reached out to Samsung support about it? I imagine any replacement will take time.

I just have to post to get the post count from 666. Anyway that's the bad part of pre-orders sometimes getting replacement take some time

This is true to a certain extent (not the 666 post part, I am sure that's true LOL!). Sammy normally places a small amount of inventory to use for replacements. Each carrier also holds a certain amount in reserve for this as well. Depending on how many fail will depend on how long it will take. Low failure rate means they can ship pretty fast, but when a device has a high failure rate, you are just stuck sitting there.

Also, things may have changed and to just bolster their sales numbers, I would not doubt that they tap into this stockpile if the failure rates look to be low.

Also, what color did you get? And where was it made? I wonder if these may be contributing factors, especially where it was made.

Sorry. Not sure why it quoted your post. I meant to quote @EazyD33 about their screen flaw.

I'm probably just going to keep it. Using the phone, I don't notice it at all. Only in the direct light do I really see it. Also,the case hides it a little bit too.

I can't believe mine still says it's in Fort Worth and hasn't moved since 2/10/23 at 4:57PM but it says hold per shipper and that I am getting it tomorrow but it hasn't moved. It's Crazy!

FedEx is better estimate, Samsung order details will just say Feb 17th since that's the launch date. But they'll start delivering from Feb 13th onwards. My order got delivered on Feb 13th but order details said by 17th. Been that way as far as I recall for previous preorders as well.

Well my Samsung said the 16th originally the 17th but FedEx is always said the 15th. So I'm sure it's not going to come today. And the weird thing is I had to leave for work and my husband said oh I wish you could wait a little bit longer for FedEx I said why is my phone coming? But I think he just got me flowers cuz it's our anniversary. But it would be nice to get the phone too so the driver don't have to come back tomorrow LOL!
