Samsung (direct from them): Note 8 Pre-Order Thread

[smooth4lyfe]

I'm showing a shipping label created shipping from Plainfield, IL from Brightpoint in Fedex app. Delivery set for 9/19. My preorder status changed to confirmed today. I thought Fedex counted Sat as a ship day?

Just checked and I see that too!
I wonder if I can call FEDEX to expedite it

 

[CraverEric]

Sweet, checked my fedex, see the same thing. I guess i'll go back to being a productive civilian till the 19th lol.

Finally got my Note8!! 3 days late, thanks to Irma.

Just noticed my Micro SD card didnt ship. Got the phone and the wireless charger.

Did this happen to anyone else??

 

[Killahhops]

I bit the bullet and ordered mine last night. According to the email it will ship the week of the 17th.

Going to throw this s8+on swappa for $500. Feels good to be coming back home to the Note.

I never got the delay email, but looks like they held their promise date for the phone. It was always ship by the 15th date for me. However, the gear 360 had a receive by the 14th. My package says 2.0 lbs, is that just the phone?

Yes, I've seen several people in this thread saying the same thing.

Cancel your order and go into a store today and leave with your new phone.

Mine is 3 pounds with phone and charger confirmed and sd card as preorder.

Check the FEDEX app or Fedex.com. I did not receive tracking but I checked the FEDEX app and there was tracking there along with a delivery date of 9/19. I ordered directly from Samsung btw

Yep. That's what I did. Easier for me.

The didn't hold the promise for me
I think if you were a Note 7 customer you would have gotten the email. We were supposed to receive it by the 14th.

Also its probably just the phone because my Gear 360 still says "PREORDER", but I really care about the phone more than the Gear 360

I avoided all this stress and walked into a T-Mobile store today and bought my Note 8. All done setting it up now. I see no reason to do the preorders anymore when I can just get the phone on release day anyways.

You might find some competition on swappa right now for your S8

Same and I agree, don't think the 360 is coming in this shipment. That's fine by me, phone more important. Yes I am Note 7, but when i preordered, they never committed to me it would be received by the 14th, they sent me confirmation it would ship by the 15th. I never got the email.

 

[crackercraig]

Same here. I did the note 7 promo. Was told would ship by 9/15. And never got any emails after the initial order confirmation

hmmm, thanks hopefully it ships soon.

Not if it's expedited or express.

Hahaha, the Samsung Mobile USA Facebook post today is hilarious. "Uh there are going to be delays"

 

[CraverEric]

Official shipped email from Samsung received not too long ago.

As a former note 7 owner, I wasn't about to leave $425 on the table.
