T-Mobile S10/+: Pre-Order Thread

[hasasimo]

Did T-Mobile JOD for the regular S10, prism white 512GB.

Thanks to some bad information I got from a Verge or PocketNow article that was since edited, I was under the impression that the 128GB variant only came with 6GB of RAM -_-

I only realized until after my pre-order that both of the S10 variants come with 8GB RAM. That was the only reason I got the 512GB version, extra RAM. Oh well, T-Mobile's billing can be so finicky so I just stuck with my order. JOD down payments were less than I thought, on the plus side.

Some more info on the snafu and misinformation that led to me going 512GB S10 instead of 128GB, just FYI. https://pocketnow.com/galaxy-s10-6gb-vs-8gb-ram/amp?__twitter_impression=true

So all variants of the S10 & S10+ have at least 8 Gigs of RAM... Good! That scared me for a minute

For most people not that needs to have 12GB RAM

Any guesses of when T-Mobile will start shipping orders out?

 

[worldspy99]

I pre-ordered on launch day but via Shop Samsung app on my S9 which I will be trading in.

I got my Note 7 and 8 a few days before expected ship date, hopefully this is the case here.

My guess is around March 4.

We will get them around 6th ort 7th I bet.

Yeah, that's a good bet.

I will say though that you never know with T-Mobile. Release day is always a Friday. When I preordered the Note 8, I got it on the Wednesday of the week before release day, i.e. a full NINE days early. So who knows?

If I were to buy an S10, I learned my lesson -- I'm going to wait a month. It seems like the new Galaxy phones always go on sale 1-2 months after they've been released. If I do buy one, I think I'll have a hard time choosing (depending on sale prices) between the S10 and the S10e -- I prefer the flat screen but want 8 GBs memory, which brings the price close to the S10 price which has several extra features (like the extra cameras).

Bit the bullet and went with the 128GB Prism White S10+.

Pre-ordered a black S10+ from TMobile this evening. was on the fence whether to go plus or not, but after playing with them at Best buy I think the plus is much more manageable than the note I have now. Almost went with the white for that stormtrooper look, but decided to go with the black.

Oh I remember those days. I got my Note 7 about 1 week or so before release day. I was so pumped when the UPS man was across the street with my phone I had to chase him down to make sure he didn't forget to drop off my phone.. Ahh the memories.

Dude, these pre-order threads and the fun of waiting for a new phone are most of the reason why I get a new phone every six months.

Nice! I did the same thing by going to Tmo store. I thought if it was bigger than my V20, I'd get the regular S10 but it's actually slightly smaller and the bigger battery was a no brainer for me.

 

[Bryant Laney]

I did the same thing I'm excited.

I've done about 4 pre-orders now with T-Mobile, never had to worry about asking for overnight shipping and I got my phone on the same day as everyone else. I usually get the phone a day or two before the official launch day but that is never a garuntee. I think it was with the Note 5 that T-Mobile shipped it out almost a week before the official launch date and the other carriers got PO'd. After that it has typically been 1-2 days early, Samsung probably stepped in and told the carriers not to ship any more than X days prior to launch date.

I remember my claim to fame was when UPS mistakenly shipped my s8+ early. I think u had it 4 days before everyone else.

Finally pulled the trigger and ordered the 10+ 128 black. Managed to get $100 bill credit to offset the $250 down payment. Not as good as the $200 credit I got towards the note 9, but it's better than nothing.

How did you manage that?

A little complaining with Twitter help. Haven't been with them long enough for the lower down payment, but I do gave 8 lines.
