I pre-ordered my note 3 from Best Buy, and originally they had an arrival date of october 1st. Today on the website, that date has changed to September 27th.
I'm honestly hoping Best Buy might be accidentally showing an early shipping/arrival date!
Thoughts?
i see. that is odd. nothing for verizon. hoping they are moving it up too!!

Bwahahahaha.
That could also mean AT&T's shipping their pre-orders earlier than the 10/1 date stated. BB is just an agent for the various wireless carriers and serves at their pleasure. I'd find it odd AT&T would allow a third-party to sell a highly anticipated new device before they themselves offered it. The carriers and third-party resellers are frenemies; all the carriers pay them handsome commissions upfront on the value of the two-year deal (device and voice/data plan) and would always rather avoid that pay-out by doing as many customer-direct deals as possible. I've followed BB's pre-order handling of some in-demand devices and it's been a cluster-f because what's in their system doesn't necessarily reflect what's actually happening. We'll know soon enough and best of luck to all no matter what channel they’re ordering from.
Just checked my AT&T preorder and it still says 10/1-10/2:crying:
guys we have it in stock already in our store , we had 5 for att , I also heard that verizon will be on the 30th of oct!!!
Really?

Seriously? I have yet to hear anything from the best buy in Florence KY.
And now it's to late to call.
I need to accept I won't have it till Friday.

stock is going fast on att note 3s where i work, and note 3 is launching on the 10th for verizon.
Ordered mine on 9/4 I think and it arrived on my door yesterday (10/3) sometime between 2:30 & 3pm. FedEx didn't even ring the bell, but my son told me I had a package as he came thru the front door from school. :sly:

For the moment, It's the only place for France.
also watching on this topic, the shipping fee from play store is too much..
Currently it's the only place you can get it, with no rumours about anywhere else getting it anytime soon. Can't see why Google would sell it elsewhere if they are struggling to meet demand either. Plus, elsewhere would possibly not be unlocked.

Your phone should be right at your door on 9/30/13 or 10/1/13 because I just tried it at the AT&T store today and Rep told me the store will have it on Saturday 28th September. And I also called Bestbuy. They told me they will have it tomorrow! Sep 27th.

What do you mean? There's no reason why they wouldn't have supported it on 9/1. Or 8/1. I used my (original) Note on their network a couple months before it was even known of they were going to offer it.

Hey everyone. I've been trying to preorder this phone from Sprint from Best buy but it's no longer available. It does seem like you can preorder via sprint but I'd prefer the instant rebate. Any suggestions? Think they will refill preorder stock? Any help is appreciated
No, just use the Samsung rebate.
Meaning just go through sprint? I too was tempted to try best buy but had to wait til this payday Friday. Thanks for letting me know its out of stock for pre at BB already.

For snicks, on the BB website, just tried setting up a new line from scratch with AT&T while preordering the N4. In store pick up was not an option, which a requirement to get the $200 BB gift card.
Same thing when I tried to buy a full price Sprint one. No instore pick up available.
This is gonna be ugly for BB and Samsung.
Make sure u get ur preorder soon bestbuy is starting to shut down preorder. I was lucky to get mine in today at bestbuy in Bedford park il. Mine was an att black version.

I went in 3 times since release, and it seems pre ordering the Sprint note 4 is impossible. They either are all ordered, or I believe that they never had them for preorder to begin with.

Anyone here order the Droid Turbo from Amazon but are stuck on waiting list until Amazon gets more stock? I had to order it from Amazon because no other 3rd party retailer is selling it around me. Also has anyone dealt with returns/exchange on cellphones before with Amazon?
PS: I bought it full pop so my plan does not get messed with
You bought it for $990?!!!
EDIT: Nevermind, I see they have it via vzw full retail now. Didn't notice they had that up as I haven't checked Amazon in a while for the turbo
EDIT 2: I actually went and ordered it but simultaneously waiting for the GSM model, so if the GSM model gets announced then I can always cancel or return

I just got mine and found a verizon sim pre-installed and when I called to activate it they told me I needed a new sim to activate it. That might have something to do with it not coming unlocked from Amazon but I don't have a spare Nano sim from a different carrier to try and check for you. I would try calling Motorola support and ask

Nice, when do you order yours? I ordered mine last Thursday and still no word on shipping. It's definitely going to have a vzw sim in it, the inventory is from vzw. It is unlocked since it's vzw has to have the GSM radios unlocked. I have friends with vzw and have nano sim and can get a T-Mobile. If I had mine I'd be able to find a solution for you. =/

Does anyone know if an AT&T or carrier device will get software updates directly from google like iPhone gets from Apple? I have heard both scenarios as it will come direct from Google and heard the carriers release. Not sure which is true?
That is the point of the pixel line.
Normal updates will come from Google. This includes the monthly security updates and Android OS updates.

I understand and hope this is correct. I read somewhere that AT&T said Google releases updates and in same thread someone said Google told them they come from the carrier.
From the way I understand it, the Android platform (and a point of advertising for the Pixel product) now is supposed to be structured in such a way that updates can come directly from Google. It will be interesting to see whether the phones purchased directly from Google get the updates faster than those from the carriers.
I've just upgraded from a Pixel 2 to a 4 XL. I purchased the 2 from Best Buy, and the 4 XL directly from Verizon. Both came with Verizon SIM cards.
The 2 received updates the same day they were released from Google.

Ok so I was bored at work today and for S&G's I did an online chat with Google. The rep told me that carrier devices will get the updates from the carrier in batches and after they modify the update (whatever he meant by that). He did also confirm that unlocked devices bought from the Google store or somewhere like Best Buy will get them direct from Google.
I only bought from a carrier to get the rebates and bill credits. However, hoping they dont screw up google's native software with their "modifications".
I got my pixel 4xl from at&t yesterday and had a system update waiting for me already. I'm guessing the October security update. I'm doubting it came from at&t but I'm just guessing

This is why I always buy from Google. Those credits and carrier tinkering (a.k.a. "software update delay generator") are not worth a few dollars to me. If I was willing to accept carrier tinkering then I might as well just buy a Samsung.
PS - I'm not picking on you, your just post brings up a very good point about where to buy a device and why.

Because carriers optimize the device for their network. Google doesn't do the optimizations for them.

Lol no offense taken. I got $700 in bill credits so it was almost a wash for me. That's the only reason I went to at&t. But when next year's model comes out I won't be a new customer getting any benefit so Google store I'll go lol.
