Samsung.com S10/+: Pre-Order Thread

[NotShirley]

The T-Mobile SIM card they sent with mine is too big to fit in the tray. Did that happen to anyone else?

First impressions:

I ordered the 1TB Black Ceramic. Wow is it a beautiful device. More stunning than any device I've owned and I've owned and still own alot of phones. That said, the ceramic back side is more of a fingerprint magnet than any device I've seen.

Display is as good as any I've seen although as I've been using a XS Max and Note 9 the last several months I can't say that it just blows me away. I much prefer the hole punch to the notch. I really don't notice it when using the device but I've yet to watch movies or play games. Just a couple quick YouTube videos.

Powershare is simple to use. I topped off my Galaxy Buds and it worked as advertised. Speaking of the Buds they were easy to set up and sound great. Fit much better for me than airpods of course that will vary from person to person.

While I don't like the fingerprint sensor as much as the Note 9 or S9+ I don't find it to be an issue either. If you register your main finger as 2 prints at different angles it helps. Also make sure you have your entire fingerprint flat over the sensor and flat against the display. It works almost every time for me after getting used to it

How much storage space was available right out of the box on the 1TB?

1. Register the same finger twice ( as finger print 1 and 2). The second time I positioned the finger at a different angle and was also careful to get the edges and to of my thumb.

2. Make sure your entire thumbprint is flat on the glass with a slight amount of pressure.

Using this method I'm having around 90% or more successs rate.

Thanks for the tip.

Honestly I did not check. Knowing I never will use that much storage I don't plan on monitoring. After doing smart switch I have it loaded down pretty good with my S9+ contents. Still have 925.3 GB available after the transfer.

Awesome review man. Can't wait to get mine. How is it switching from iPhone to Android?

Was that question for me? I think so because I don't see any other Canadians in here.

I ordered mine as soon as pre-orders went live on Feb. 21st.

Purolator tracking shows it expected delivery tomorrow March 7th.

Which phone did you order, I ordered the Ceramic black one and ordered is like two days ago and still says processing . In Ontario



Is it me? Or are the dates BS? lol

I wasn't planning on getting the S10+, but decided on a whim to preorder today. Never ordered from Samsung before. Usually I order through TMo

Which one did you order? And just out of curiosity, what phone are coming from?

I got the Prism Blue 128GB S10+. I’ve got an iPhone XS Max and a HTC U12+ at the moment. If I like the S10+ I’ll sell the U12+.

 

[mjs2011]

So I might have figured out why I have seen any movement. I ordered the US Cellular version via the Samsung site. I guess someone (the only person I've seen get a us Cellular version early) got theirs and the carrier wouldn't let them activate it until Friday. So maybe this is by design. I'd like to set least get mine by Saturday latest or I will be calling and complaining.

Lol I always have a iPhone and Android device. I keep one work and one personal line. There are things I like about both and I switch my daily driver a few times a month. I have a problem. If I had to choose only one though the S10+ would be my main.

I ordered the regular S10 128GB black. I think the "START SHIPPING FROM" is a way for Samsung to keep your hopes up while still not being obligated to actually ship it out that date.

I'm in Calgary and my phone was shipped from Vancouver.

My S10+ 128GB Flamingo (I'm calling it Orange...LOL) for AT&T finally had the Cancel button disappear earlier this evening. I ordered on the night of the 20th. It originally said Will ship by Mar 15, 2019. I didn't even realize that at the time, or I would have went for the Prism Blue instead. Hopefully it might ship tomorrow. Galaxy buds say Will Ship By March 8th...

Welcome to the party. I didn't plan on ordering either but changed my mind.

How do you like the color? Best Buy said mine may or may not be in on Friday cause if the color. My husbands prism white still says the 15th and he has the cancel button still from Samsung. I'm glad everyone is liking the phone. And I'll know what to expect when I get it.

No movement yet on my order from Samsung.com.//uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190306/644c938a0423d49426111fbfc3bb2fe3.jpg

Wait so I'm not the only one sitting here with arrive by March 8th since pre-order and absolutely no change!!

Same 1TB unlocked Ceramic Black. Sucks, but at least I'm not alone I guess. Ugh. I feel your pain.

 

[njgill05]

Question for those who've received their phone, does it have the Facebook messenger app preloaded as past Samsung devices have and can it be removed or deleted?

 

[anon(10572241)]

Quick question can you redirect your shipment to a FedEx or UPS location if you're not not going to be home?

 

[trucksmoveamerica#AC]

Well my cancel button went away, so I'm assuming with Samsung that means the phone is being processed to ship. The charge has not come back on the card yet.
