T-Mobile: Galaxy S9/S9+ Official Pre-Order Thread

[anon(62000)]

Sucks with us in the northeast expecting snow smh

Indeed. Third storm in 2 weeks. I can't wait for summer.......

Would suck on ups and tmobile part to have expensive phones deliver to locations without us even knowing

 

[ramonq619]

I ordered two phones and both phones have an eta. One says today. The other says tomorrow

@ramonq619:

may i please ask what method of shipping you requested? did you select Next Day Air? or 2nd Day Air? or...?

Thank you and congrats!

Mine just updated with the request for Hold for Pickup, which is something I did do. That's a good sign - perhaps we'll start seeing the Origin Scans tonight!

 

[Dualmonitors]

well, so as of this morning, our focus has now changed to figuring out what is TMobile's target date to deliver the phones to us?

if their target date is 3/16th, then we'd probably not see any updates or movements in the packages until, say, Wednesday or wo.

if their target date is 3/15th or 3/14th, then we might see some movement as soon as this evening, right?

sigh. so much excitement last night and, nada! zilch! nothing!

They almost ALWAYS ship before those dates. This is the latest I have ever gotten a pre-order. That's supposed to be the perk of ordering early. You get them before everyone else. Usually they're in our hands about a week before launch date.

 

[Victor Hernandez Jr]

someone said earlier.....

I did, in no rush to get it... As well I'm attending a Samsung event here in new York that I'm getting a free phone from them

 

[Dualmonitors]

they must give the early pre-order folks something "special", i.e. receiving our phones a few days earlier.

after all, we are the enthusiast crowd. we create a buzz. that's good for business.

TMobile used to take care of us.

Well, this time...? Who knows...yet. Maybe we'll find out this evening?

 

[RandomGuy Yo]

Yep TMobile always beats the time frame listed on the site. My guess tomorrow origin scans today.

 

[echo_808]

I had changed my option from 2nd day to next day and my ups app had it has held for a future date..I cancelled the next day option and now it has it in transit..

Guess held for future date might be just the name they use when it changes. Did t change mines back so hopefully mines is in transit too.

 

[ramonq619]

One is next day air. Other is 2nd day air

Every single time I've pre-ordered on T-Mobile, the phone shipped well ahead of "estimated shipping dates." Sometimes a full week ahead (eg. Note8).

Same here as well have been pre-ordering T-Mobile phones for the last 6-7 years there usually ahead of estimated shipping times but the release so close being Friday I'm telling people it's more realistic of the phones following the given estimated shipping times on the actual T-Mobile website

Thats been my experience with past Samsung phones through T-Mobile as well. We usually get pre orders about a week early. Otherwise...why pre-order?

 

[ScottsoNJ]

On my t_mobile page it says waiting to ship and tomorrow as my delivery. It's being shipped 2nd day air which I did not ask for or pay for. I pre ordered on 3/3

 

[arunma]

I think last year for the S8+ pre-order, I got my phone only two days before launch. But then with the Note 8 it was 9 days early, so I was hoping for a similar timeframe here. Oh well. Most of the fun comes from the anticipation stoked by this pre-order thread!

 

[accapro]

Exactly. What's the point.
