T-Mobile Pre-orders

[minnemike]

Delivers today, so says UPS.... Man what a difference buying preorder from Tmo vs Google. I guess it's the difference of companies that want your money from using the phone right away. lol

I wonder if they will have it for sale immediately in the stores tomorrow,? Apparently Verizon will and T-Mobile hates to get upstaged.

I'd like to know this too....it would nice to be able to have a "hands-on" session before making a buy / no buy decision.

Mine is out for delivery. And my case is too. Saaaweeeet!

Trading in my Note 8. Great phone, but just WAY too tall.

Mine is marked shipped with a tracking number, supposed to deliver tomorrow. Paid for overnight shipping.

Mine shipped too. But it's slated for Tuesday because of Columbus day.

Does anyone know if the V30 is in the TMO stores yet?

Is the included charger Quick Charge 3.0 or USB PD? Thanks.

According to another thread, a guy is looking for USB-C to USB-C cables for his v30 he just got. I would assume this is only going to be PD. USB-C to USB-A would relate to QC3.0 type chargers? Not 100% in this - just an educated guess.

EDIT: I take all that back - just got my phone! It has a USB-C to USB-A charger! So, I assume this is QC3.0 type.

Let us know how it goes. I am curious how battery life goes. I know it takes a couple days to settle in.

Thanks. The press event for the V30 did say that it was compatible with both Quick Charge 3.0 and USB PD. Was just curious what they would include in the box. Sounds like QC 3.0.

I'm on the jump on demand and I want to jump to the v30 but I have a note 8 and I'm trying to just hold out till I see it in person for a better look at it sad thing is I'm going to see the Cavs and thunder play back to back weeks and I already know the wide angle would be amazing in the arena but I'm not trying to rush

Finished submitting the daydream promotion, got confirmation. Now wait for approval and shipping, assuming it'll take a month or so by the time we receive it.

Tried to register for the second year warranty but was saying imei not valid, may be LG systems still are not refreshed with the imei. I'm not worried about the additional warranty since I'm not going to keep that long

That's correct. Tmobile and Verizon only have silver. AT&T and Sprint have silver and black, although it's currently not showing on Sprints website.

Technically, charger says "Fast Charge" on it and has output specs of 5v/9v at 1.9a (I think this is QC3 specs)- So, def isnt USB C 5v 3.0a PD

I was slightly disappointed in only silver... but now having it, I really like it alot... it's closer to a shiny chrome than matte silver. It does get smudgy though. It's nice enough, that I think I'll stay with clear cases if I use one.

Thanks. It looks like the Verizon version does ship with a PD charger and type c to type c cable.

 

[minnemike]

I'll be able to do a charging race test here at some point since I also have a nexus 5x with the usb c 5v 3a delivery, assuming its the same standard.

 

[minnemike]

can you use an ATT version on T Mo?

I would think for sure. Phone is design to take it all!

Edit... I thought you were talking chargers... haha.

I dont think you can without an unlock. But technically yes, with help from Tmo.

For those curious about the Verizon version and charging.

Thanks for that... interesting! VZ includes an extra cable for data transfer but Tmo includes only a single QC type which doubles for data transfer. I'd rather have the C to C charger and extra cable though, especially if C to C charging is faster. I will have to make some tests. My LG Nexus 5x C to C charger looks exactly the same as this.
