Verizon WILL carry all storage options for the S6.

[iLLusive]

To my understanding they should load the new SKU tomorrow, across Verizon. You still might have to wait to access the gold via pre-order on the 1st since that is when everything will technically go live.

 

[felloffthetruck]

The pre orders will go live at 12:00AM on April 1st or will it be later on in the day?
I want to get on there the second they go live and get my 128GB Black.

Do you know based on past experience if we are one of the first to pre-order will they ship it to us on the 10th, or can we expect to have it on the 10th? I was hoping to get through Best Buy for the charger and don't have to send it for a rebate but if I can receive it on the 10th might be a lot less of a hassle.

$100 to go from 32G to 64G of storage is ridiculous considering the price of a flash drive for a 32 vs 64 only increases at most by $15 to $20. At most there should be a $50 differential between the 2 devices.

 

[felloffthetruck]

For the 128GB are we better to pre order online or try to walk into a corporate store on the 10th and hope to get one?

You should buy all the parts yourself and build your own phone then!

Yeah. I was hoping that it would be similar to the Droid Turbo where its just a $50 price difference between the 32 and 64GB models.

So last update from details given today...again things can change and this is coming from Verizon and their vendors.

This will not affect every market and is just trying to help people understand to have a back up color option...or wait it out like me

Tomorrow - We have been told MOST indirect stores, meaning privately owned. Will NOT be getting shipments of the GOLD color until late April / Early may.

Verizon's wording is big business and states they will be three color choices for PRE-ORDER and for Launch it does NOT state they will be available immediately. Meaning some options will ship LATER or as most understand it as a back order. SO if you are thinking gold your best option will be to try Online, Telesales or a National corp location. Again some indirect might have them....I will be trying to do my best at midnight to start ordering phones it they go live at that time.

Just wanted to pass that on as Verizon and Samsung are stating the 128GB and GOLD will be very limited and GOLD in general might not be in stores or shipping launch day....but a few weeks later.

@iLLusive thanks for the update!

Sent from my DROID MAXX!!!!

 

[Jaycemiskel]

Appreciate the update. I'll definitely just keep my order for the black and forget about the gold

 

[Arthas25]

Went live at 2:45! Gold 128GB Edge is 5/1.

Galaxy S6 64GB Black. Make sure you pick overnight if you want it on or before release date.

Delivery by 4/10

 

[felloffthetruck]

Just ordered Black 128GB with a date of 4/17 The only shipping option was Free 2 Day delivery.

I guess they don't even have the 128's in stock yet?

Any chance of me getting this earlier then the 17th?
My order was complete 5 minutes after they opened up online pre orders.

 

[STEVESKI07]

Was hoping for some kind of incentive. I'll probably just stick with my best buy preorder and hope for no lines.

Was overnight an option for you? Only option I had was two day shipping. Kind of bummed about that was hoping to get it on the 11th before I leave for a trip.

I've pre order many of phones from Verizon in the past and they will ship the phone via 2 day and you will have it on or before the 10th.

 

[vegasdroid]

I just ordered the "golden edge 128gb." Will ship on 5/1. I can't wait.

[yanks4life]

So Ordered the Verizon Gold S6 64GB and it says ship by 5/1, does anyone think maybe it will ship before, sucks have to wait longer just for Gold, hope I made the right decision!!

 

[STEVESKI07]

Thanks. Hope this is true! I just got off a chat with the sales rep and they told me that I cant go on the Verizon Edge plan if I go thorugh Best Buy so looks like I have no choice but to preorder through Verizon.
