Same email. Totally pissed off. What was the sense of ordering before anyone else. I hate Verizon.

I am pretty upset about it. I pre-ordered the minute it was available and they have no phones available? So how many did they preorder? Ten? Bad business.

Got the same email... hopefully it will ship by that date. I'm not that upset about it since I got a white one but my wife is since I will give her the white once the gold arrives

If you have not seen the gold one in person I would recommend going to best buy and checking it out. I had a Gold 64gb ordered until I looked at Best Buy. The gold version is the best looking one of all of them but it showed fingerprints like crazy. I switched my order to the white version and could not be happier.

I gave up myself and went with the sapphire, the gold was pretty slick but I'm tired of waiting games (and also terribly impatient and compulsive). The rep did tell me they had a huge, unexpected demand for the gold 64s and 128s and that was why they were so far behind .. but if people who ordered it the minute is was available and are still getting delayed than maybe it's some other issues.

I got the white one yesterday but BB had the gold one for Att and sprint and it really is a beautiful looking phone. I might be playing the return game in 12 days.

There is already a thread for talking about Gold S6 orders. Keep it there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60440019

GALAXY GEAR FOR $149.99 TODAY ON BEST BUY (Deal of the day)

Sorry for all caps, but don't want anyone to miss this. It is TODAY ONLY. Feb 14. Would send mine back to Amazon and buy this one, but missed return date by 6 days. Am getting one for the wife though! Stores will match deal of the day price on same colors, but can't exchange color later as price will be up tomorrow!
Let me know if this post would be better somewhere else. Thanks by the way to all in these forums. fomey, littlestevie, etc!

I believe online shipping is free. I'm getting mine for my wife at the Best Buy locally through as they will match the deal of the day price. By the way, I love the rose gold (the one I have) and am getting a lime green for the wife. I know most people like black.
Only orange and rose gold left - I picket a white one earlier today, but now they are out
It is a killer price

I had the rose gold demo on to see how it looked... And then I ended up paying the extra 100.00 for the black. Couldn't justify the white and rose gold
Just ordered on. All that was left was green. FYI it's about $100 to change the band color after the fact.
Curious if torque and strava work with it.

To speak in samsung colors - Oatmeal Beige.
I dont expect this to be really white
I bought 3 online with local pickup at the store and picked them up a little bit later.
I couldn't resist....Finally upgraded from a Galaxy S2 (Hercules) to a Nexus 5, just to pick one of these up over a Pebble. (Not too concerned over the little limitations, I'm happy with it for $150 ^_^ )
Thank you for letting me know about this deal, today was payday and I was literally freaking out over which to buy. lol
On a side note, don't believe the Best Buy website as to which are in stock. I called around and three of the four stores around me had all of the colors in stock although the website only said they had one or two, if any at all. The rose-gold is actually kind of nice looking. A fairly shiny bronze, but just a hint of red in it in certain light. I actually almost chose it over the Oatmeal -- Which, btw, is grey with just a hint of brown. Decided on it over the others because I usually wear suits and it seems to match a little better than explaining something as a "rose." =P

[Q] Fastest Way to Get One?

Hello everyone,
So I have accidentally spent too much time drooling and reading reviews to pull the trigger to order. But I've decided I need one, and need it immediately (lol, as I'm sure all of you understand).
Question: What's the quickest way to get one? Has anyone ordered super recently and received an immediate shipping/arrival ETA? Or would it be best to go to the store and nab one?
Thanks for your assistance in getting one of these sexy beasts in my paws with a quickness! :highfive:
Try to preorder and get one day service to see if that way you can get it tomorrow or weds
Or just wait until Friday
I ordered the white one last Friday and will receive mine Tuesday with one day air shipping. I'm calling t-mobile today to get credited for my shipping since most people got next day air free. It's best you order a white one if you want it quick Also my first pre-order which was on the first morning of pre-orders was cancelled due to a banking error but the rep promised me I would still get my device early. k.
I pre ordered on 9/30. My shipping label was just created on 10/11/14 and still seems to be sitting in a T-Mobile warehouse someplace because it has yet to be picked up by UPS. This is the first time I've pre ordered a phone from T-Mobile and it will be the last. I always show up at a T-Mobile store on launch day and walk out with a phone by 9:30 AM. As a T-Mobile customer for over 10 years you would think my shipping would be upgraded to 1 day air like a lot of others have. But according to my still up shipped tracking label, it's going UPS Ground.
Rather messed up that T-Mobile wouldn''t honor a first come, first served model. I could in all likely hood pre-order right now and have a device delivered before someone who ordered the day it started.
Same boat as you. Estimated delivery date is Friday.

Did you get tracking yet? I ordered white one Friday as well and they told me it would come in Monday if I did overnight. However, today they said it still hasn't been shipped yet and are not sure when it will now. Shipping was obviously refunded.

There was a loose ear piece grill on mine and Tmo had to order me a new black one today. They charged my card for a new phone with EIP just like the first one and they are shipping it to me overnight for Wed delivery. It's technically a new purchase and the 1st one will be a return.

I pre ordered mine and had it two days later. So I'd say having pre ordered but they will be showing up in stores and with that sweet $200 dollar rebate deal going on it maybe better to get one at bestbuy.

How they get it free? how much was one day air? Cause I preordered mine in stores on 10/10 and come to think about it they never ask what shipping rate I wanted... like when I ask questions about the phone like a week earlier over the phone but anyways if I can get back the shipping that be cool.. but I think they just gave me the standard shipping $6.99... but if I could gotten free shipping...

yeah, it's been up since around 11:50 EST, I want to pull the trigger but I will wait a few weeks/month to see if the green comes to the US. I was really banking on getting green, it looks amazing. Really can't settle for white when I know that emerald is an option.
I ordered the Black Sapphire for the wife. Or myself depending on my luck getting a tmobile version.

128 GB edge locked in let's hope the bootloader isn't fort Knox.
128 GB Black Sapphire here. AT&T isn't offering the Emerald Edge so that made that decision for me. Small chance I'll turn around and sell the thing for near max value and pick up one depending on how sexy it is when I see it in real life.
With that said, blue and purple are my favorite colors, and that Black Sapphire looks pretty damn sexy at an angle on that front
If you pre-order the gold version, the site says will ship by April 27th. Not sure I want to wait another month for this phone??

i already have NoteEdge and LoopPay wont available until summer. so there is really no need to hurry for me to get this phone. to me Gold or nothing. haha
my order status said "expected ship date 4/24/25 to 4/27/15
i don't see the blu on there website is it sold out already lol
edit.... black saphire is the blue ?
As my signature says, I have a Nexus 5 which is getting a little "old" per say even though I love my Nexus -- still will keep it along with the S6 Edge. I just want a more "beastly" phone for my every day use. I waited this long, I can wait another month for the color I want. Never had a "gold" phone so this will be a first.

Also, does anyone know if AT&T will have demo units available starting today to check out? I know I am getting one but want to see what the phone is like first hand before I get it.
"Get a first look at the Galaxy S 6 and Galaxy S 6 edge beginning March 27 at participating AT&T stores in the U.S. "
should have demo units on some bestbuy also

Just order 64GB Black Sapphire . Excited. Expected ship date 08APR15.
Preordered the gold 64gb last night at it said ship date was April 8...but this morning it now says april 24th...I am a sad panda. I have a business trip in the middle of april and I was really looking forward to taking it with me to see how it does on the road. I would switch to the white or black but I was seriously hoping for the green model in the first place and the gold was my fallback. I don't think I want to compromise again on the color so I guess I will just suck it up and wait until April 24...
Ordered 64GB Pearl White. Ship date of 4/8. What are the chances they ship even before that? It's happened in the past
AT&T had MANY issues with their preorder system today, prompting me to spend time with their online chat and then phone sales....
Anyway, eventually made the site work and pre-ordered a 128 Edge in Black. Think historically they have sometimes sent out phones 1-2 days before the expected date, but that remains to be seen.
Excited to retire my Note Edge, it's been a blast, but squeezing that tray-sized phabbbblet into my pocket has become tiresome...

The idea is to have the phone DEFINITELY arrive on the day it is to be released in stores. In order to do that, it has to be shipped a little early.
Of course the earlier it ships, the greater the possibility of getting it before the retail store release date (of April 10th in this case).
I'm hoping I'll get mine a day early or so, but I'm pretty sure I remember reading that it'll ship by the 8th (which of course means it could ship earlier).
I've noticed on the pre order page it says "ship by the 8th" which means it can ship any day now. But a lot of you are saying you're getting a 8th expected ship date. Which means we might get it on the 10th if AT&T still using their two day shipping as standard.
Is it normal for them to apply your pre-order payment to your account as a credit or did they miss apply the amount for my order? Never pre-ordered before, just always picked up at the store.

Strange thing here is... I havn't been charged anything for my pre-order yet lol. There's a $1.00 confirmation charge on my card, but other than that, nada.
As some other people have indicated, they're definitely having issues with pre-orders.
Wonder why they're not getting green qUickly if they were checking customer interest online they would know that green is popular

It's not an iPhone, therefore, AT&T interests in customer interest is limited :laugh:
In actuality though, looks like the variant-exclusive colors aren't coming stateside at the moment.

Edge 64GB Pre-Order Delays?

I pre-ordered at my local BB at 10am on the 27th. Went into the store this morning despite not receiving an email to check on it. They informed me that all of the AT&T shipments were late compared to the other carriers and that they had no stock of the 64's yet. I called the three closest AT&T stores around me and the answer was the same -- 32 are in stock, but nobody has any 64.
Anybody else have a similar experience? Has anyone been able to pick up their 64 today?
I plan on doing this in a hour. Pacific time .
If they don't have my 64GB white for ATT that I preordered 3-31, I'll go to the ATT which is in the same parking lot lol.
If ATT doesn't have it, I'll just have to opt for a 128GB of that's available. If neither are available I'll settle for a 32GB....

Nobody had the 128s where I checked as well, but phone shipments certainly aren't equally distributed. If you live in a more suburban area than I do you're likely to have better luck.
Checked all the ATT in the area and none have the 64GB edge , but they do have the regular S6 in 64. Going to opt for the regular most likely...

oh boy I sense ATT getting heat if all the Platinum/Gold Pre-Orders that were said to be shipped out around the 24th which are now being shipped recieve there Edge before all the black ones who were promiced by the 10th. Kind of glad I ordered the platinum Gold one.
I can add to the BS.
Aside from the shipment being late at my BB, their system couldn't do my trade-in/up on my old iPhone, it wouldn't accept the SKU. So eventually they call up AT&T, no go. I call AT&T and they proceed to tell me that Best Buy does not have the capability to do a trade-in.
That's right, AT&T claimed that Best Buy cannot do a @#$% trade-in.
So I fought with them some more, and they had me do the pay-up over the phone with them. Still, the sale wouldn't work. They call AT&T again, AT&T says "oh if you do trade-in it can take 24 hours for it to process".
Because, you know, NO ONE ever walks into a store to trade-in their phone and walk out with a new one.
Sensing some BS, I call them again. They then proceed to tell ME that, oh no, the payment processed just fine, it's that BEST BUY has a bad system but hey if you place your order with me and give me the sale I can do it right now and put it in the mail for ya this afternoon. No thanks, I just had Jason here struggle for about 95 minutes trying to make this order happen, I'm not letting you guys just throttle BB's ability to make sales just because you want to force people to buy directly through you.
It was really insane. AT&T seemed to just REFUSE to let Best Buy sell me the phone, their story repeatedly changed as to why it wasn't working, but I don't think they realized I was standing there with the sales reps and had actually seen other people do trade-ins. I eventually got it, but MAN it was a fight.
Wow. All for the commision.

I placed my pre-order on the 3rd of April, BB.com, and I received it in store on the 10th, AT&T black sapphire 64GB and got the free wireless charger pad.
No 64GB Edge models in SLC yet
Same issue here in Salt Lake City. I was told I was the first to pre-order the white Edge 64GB AT&T version. I also ordered a standard S6 32GB in black. I got the notification Friday morning on the black one, but nothing on mine. I waited until 4pm and then just went to the store. After waiting an hour to be helped, I was told I could not leave with the black one unactivated (it's for my nephew out of state and is a surprise graduation gift), and that no 64GB white Edge phones arrived at all. They had no idea when they might get them. So I left empty handed and extremely annoyed, even though the BB staff was apologetic and offered to hold the wireless charging pad for my nephew's phone even though I theoretically wouldn't pick it up for two months.
I checked a few AT&T stores, but they didn't get any 64GB Edge models at all either. I was told only those who preordered directly through AT&T online and had their phones shipped to them got the 64GB version, at least in my area. The AT&T stores could also not tell me when they might be in stock, but suggested I order online and could get one in as little as one business day. I do see they are shipping and just had a live chat with an AT&T rep online who told me white 64GB Edge models were ready to ship to customers.
I still haven't gotten any communication from Best Buy on my phone - not even the "sorry for the delay" email some are reporting. And yes, I've checked spam. I think I'll be ordering from AT&T online tonight.
Gave up - AT&T order coming tomorrow
I gave up on Best Buy and ordered my 64GB white Edge from AT&T online today with expedited shipping. Just got the notification that it's being delivered tomorrow!

I gave up on my Bestbuy preorder also. I preordered a white 64GB S6. Got an email on the 10th about a delay. I cancelled yesterday and ordered the 64GB Platinum / Gold S6 Edge from AT&T.
Ordered my 64GB Gold Platinum Edge yesterday, order status says it's "Preparing for shipment". I have the same 4/24-4/27 estimated ship date as well but the guy who helped me at my AT&T store said it'd be delivered in 3-5 Days. I've heard people getting theirs way sooner than the estimated ship date and I'm wondering if that's just applying to a certain model, or all of them.

Very good device, i love it
Well that sucks, must be in bigger cities? I walked into a Best Buy just to look at one on 4/12 thinking I wasn't eligible for a few more weeks, ended up walking out with a 'black' 64gb edge. But it had problems, had a bunch of what looked like waves on the underside of the glass (mfg defect?). Went back in last Thursday and swapped for another one in stock (no issues).
We bought a white and black 64gb edge. My wife's black one had a bubble under the LCD. While I was having mine wrapped at Clear Coat we noticed it. We took it back to the store and had it swapped out only to see a line of waves under the screen. They wouldn't swap it for another one abs told us we had to contact Samsung directly .

Told I could buy a Platinum Gold Note 5

I went to the store to reserve a note 5 because I'm doing the demand jump program and can't get it until Friday. They had an edge plus and note 5 sitting out to mess with. I told him I wish I could get the platinum gold note 5 and he said he would hold it for me. I said Huh? You only have the black and white in the note 5 and the platinum gold is the edge plus. He told me no, they got 3 colors in that morning and he saw it and he said he was getting the same color Friday as well. I asked him to let me see and he said they were locked up in the back. He was very adamant about knowing they have them and he saw them and was getting one also. Again, I said, are you sure your not talking about or thought you saw the edge plus and he said he was positive.
So... I contacted tmo chat, and they told me it was very possible because the stores can get different colors than what they offer online.
Well, wishful thinking I am sure.. but we will see... anyone else heard of this?
Weird, guess I am the only one?
I just set myself a reminder to check when I get to the store tonight and I'll let you know what our store has both in Stock or due in shipment

I was told the same thing today. I doubt it's true since I haven't read anything online. I made an appointment just in case....
Stopped in my Tmobile and the guy went into the back to check. Only black and white.
Time will tell. .I'll be in at 10am tomorrow morning
hmmm
a few days ago, i started a TS chat via Samsung's website to yell at them about not having the Gold Platinum for the Note 5.
She told me that they were releasing "Champagne" which is just a little lighter than the Platinum...
so i only cap-locked on them about toning down a bold, beautiful Gold Platinum to a dull, bland Champagne Gold...
I hope there are a few Platinums available... Champagne is as lame as Apple's Rose Gold...
I think they are catering to the women with these subtle colors...
