Can't Buy Phone - Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Questions & Answers

Anyone else being told Samsung doesn't deliver to their address? This only happens trying to buy the Z Flip. Unfreakingbelieveable.

Walked in to ATT and they had a Z Flip
I haven't had any issues with Samsung but I happened to go into an att store today and they had one in stock. Best Buys wait was until the end of March.

Did you just walk into a random ATT store or did you call around first. I'm trying to find one but I had the same problem as OP but now it is sold out

It was random. I happened to be driving by and realized they just opened. Figured I would take a shot. They happened to have one. That was in Frisco, TX!

Also, I absolutely love this phone. I have had almost every single flagship phone Samsung made since the beginning. I know it doesn't have the specs as the new Ultra, but this phone has really been fun to use. The portability of this thing tops everything.

I got lucky too. On Tuesday they were still "in stock" at Sprint. After my order, it said "Sold Out" an hour later when I thought about switching to purple. It arrived Weds.

I ordered mine from Samsung yesterday Verizon doesn't have it on their website, be here by the 23rd.

Yeah, I finally got mine ordered. Should be here Wednesday.

When I ordered mine from sam Samsung it said it will be here by the 23rd I got a txt today it will be here Monday.

Galaxy S4 Available in Canada(Bell) on May 3rd

Spoke to a manager today at the Bell store.
They told me they are very sure the phone will be coming to Bell stores on May 3rd. Pricing was not 100% positive but is expected to be around $650 no contact, which is almost identical to the $640 projected for the USA.
(old news) You can pre-order the phone for 50 dollars from most of the various carriers. This is a DOWN PAYMENT.
Just figured I would share since it seems Canada isn't getting too much love Looking forward to the launch
PS. I looked at the Xperia ZL while I was there and it was a very nice phone, I don't get what all the screen fuss is about.

AFAIK Virgin Mobile Canada is getting it on April 26th. I would expect Bell to get it on the same day.

If it's like last year, the phone will be $50.00 cheaper @ Virgin. So get your phone from them if you are with Bell.

Ah, I must have missed that post, thanks. None of the other threads here on XDA have mentioned it.
PS. I did tilt the screen, it wasn't that bad IMO.
Do you have any information about the 32Gb version? Phone reservation is only available for the 16Gb model...
no scheduler about 32gb version
Hmm, Pre-Orders are open now, phoned several bell stores that confirmed they will have them in stock on April 27th.
It will be 699.95 Off contract or 199.95 on a 3 year contract or upgrade.
I cant post links but the infos on bells website
They will only be in stock for those with all the pre - order paperwork AND picture lD. And you must pick up the preorder before May 3. And you must prepay the entire amount. Can't wait!

Perhaps it depends on whether it's a Bell Store or another retailer. My receipt is very specific and the service person said for the last pre-order they got only exact numbers.

Is it available right now though? I was supposed to get mine Saturday. Got a call and $50 credit Friday and a text Saturday dating I could pick up in 2 days so I'm going Monday after work.

Best Buy Pre-orders

who else did a best buy pre-order? i was going to do in store pickup, but then i saw a best buy faq page saying
"Q: I never received a notification that my Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 edge is ready to be picked up, even though I pre-ordered it?
A: If you haven't received notification that your Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 edge is ready to be picked up it means the store didn't receive enough of the model you pre-ordered to fulfill you pre-order at this time, or they haven't physically reserved your pre-order yet with the inventory they did receive."
and I def didn't wanna chance that..knowing my luck, they wouldn't get it. so i just did shipping.
it says it'll arrive BY release date of march 11th...anyone ever have any experience getting a best buy order before? i never used them for shipping before, so I'm wondering if i'll definitely get it ON march 11th.
pumped, though! played with one at best buy today and it's a nice phone. have my Moto X up for sale (since I use my note 4 so much more than the X) so i'm excited to get it!
I did bb pre order for an iPhone and hopefully Sammy is better. All stores get an allotment. Some for preorder and some walkin.
I cancelled and went to sprint that time. Some preorders were not filled for 5-7 weeks! Again that was an iPhone thing, hopefully Sammy sends out plenty!
Well the reason they didn't get a notification that it's ready to pick up is that it's not been released yet...
I'm also interested to know..if you buy online and ship to your home address will it be shipped on or before 11th? Or will it be after this date?
I mean when you click "when will I get it?" or whatever, it says on release date, 3/11 so I'm guessing they ship out prior..

Response from bestbuy cs said the 11th or the day after is *expected*. They dont know for sure or they cannot say, but most likely they just don't know at the rep level.
---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:23 PM ----------
In the past, now get this, they have said the get it by date is not when you get it, but when they get it
I don't know if it means much, but T-mobile has started shipping pre-orders. Mine is scheduled for UPS Next Day Air delivery tomorrow. They don't have to wait to ship, but they won't give you a date before the release date until they actually ship it.

see, that's absolute bs. if you go to best buy right now on the website and check the phone, and clikc "see when you can get it" for shipping, it says:
Get it by:
Release Date, Fri, Mar 11 - FREE
Standard
See final shipping costs in checkout.
so that's plain english stating you WILL get it by release date, correct?
day after won't happen since it's saturday and they definitely aren't doing saturday shipping.
this is just annoying because it needs a signature they claim, so i need to know if i should take off that day or not, ya know?
*edit* FWIW, not that reps know too much, but i did the chat and this was the transcript:
Thank you for choosing Best Buy, my name is Abraham. How may I assist you today?
28-Feb 03:39 PM
good afternoon, i've preordered a galaxy s7 for verizon, and the release date is march 11th. now, when you goto the device page and click "see what you can get it" it states you will have it on release date, march 11th.
28-Feb 03:40 PM
is this confirmed?
28-Feb 03:41 PM
Good afternoon! That is great that you pre-ordered the new Galaxy S7!
I'd be more than happy to assist you with your questions. Yes, you will be able to receive it on the 11th of March.
28-Feb 03:42 PM
perfect, so since signature is required, i may have to take off that day as i don't know what time it will come
28-Feb 03:42 PM
so it's 100% safe to say that on march 11th, UPS will deliver my S7?
28-Feb 03:42 PM
That is correct, you will get on the release date.
28-Feb 03:43 PM
perfect! thanks for your help today, abraham
so who knows. maybe we'll be lucky!

The Note 5 was the first phone Verizon ever shipped early to most people.Got mine a week early.Hope that was the start of a trend of early shipping by them.
I preordered, then a day later canceled. I wanted the free VR wear and the SD card but I didn't want to get roped into the stupid AT&T's 2 year $26 a month deal

Why didn't you just order the AT&T "unactivated" S7? It still comes with the VR and SD card.
Hmm not sure I saw that. Must have missed it. Is that where you pay upfront full price? I think ultimately I want to see what the models are like when they come out. I currently have tmobile s5 with AT&T sim. May want to buy another tmobile if they're unlocked bootloader. The whole SIM locked phone idea has me wondering though. Ie first sim installed, locks phone to carrier.
Preordered mine thru bestbuy.com hopefully they ship early. T-Mobile is doing so. So anxious!

Best Buy Mobile employee here, the way pre orders are usually explained are that when you pre-order, there is a chance you won't get it on launch day but you WILL get it before someone that just walks in to buy it without one. I personally haven't seen many stores run out of pre-order stock.
Hope that helps!

I'm 99% sure (at least in my store) you can only do in store pick-up if pre-ordering in store. Haven't heard otherwise about online pre-ordering.
EDIT: The info I posted is for if you are doing it through a contract/installment billing. I think if you get an unlocked or T-Mobile (we don't carry T-Mobile contracted phones in most stores), it's different.
thanks for the insight. I didn't pre-order in store, though. I did online. I was contemplating in store pickup until I read that there's a chance they may not have stock for all pre-orders... so i just did shipping. so any idea whether buying full price and getting it shipped should be here early? the chat rep said we'll have it the 11th for sure.

I did the same as you. Paid full price and selected to have it shipped to my house. AT&T version. I went Best Buy over AT&T because Best Buy is typically better about returns and don't charge you any fee, Best Buy offered a free 64 GB microSD card, Best Buy is actually sending out the Gear VRs instead of just sending you a code to get one from Samsung, and finally, I had a $20 Best Buy gift card that I need to use lol. Best Buy is notorious for botching pre-orders, so I'll just be happy if we get it on or by the 11th. I doubt we'll get it early.

Looks like BestBuy USA is sold out. You can't pre order from there anymore. The Canadian site still shows it as available though.
If it cost $350 for the non LTE Frontier, that means it may cost $450 for the cellular enabled version. Guess we'll have to wait for the carriers to put up their preorder page.
The Best Buy Canada site shows a release date of November 18. Probably safe to expect that will be the US release date, too.

Right now I have a 3G AT&T Gear S2. I am torn if I am going to keep non LTE Gear S3 or order one from AT&T when it becomes available. I feel that numbersync for calls doesn't work all time. Plus very rarely do I go out without my phone. I am not really sure if there is any great benifit to have the LTE version so I am up in the air

I, too, had the Gear S2 3G AT&T model. I never used the LTE/e-SIM option so I'm skipping the LTE versions of the Gear S3. I just need speaker, Samsung Pay MST, and GPS.

Tizen Experts posted on Twitter that Best Buy stopped the pre order because they ran out of stock.
Now, the good news is that Best Buy in the USA has started offering the next Tizen smartwatch for $349.99, that is for both the Gear S3 Classic and also the Gear S3 Frontier. We were overjoyed with this news as our American cousins do not like being left out when it comes to device launches. At that time the delivery date was rumoured to be around mid-November but it hadn’t been officially confirmed. Unfortunately all celebrations eventually have to come to an end and Best Buy now reports that the S3 has ran out of stock.

Best Buy pre-order waiting room

Rather than order direct from Verizon, I preordered the Verizon variant from Best Buy for the $50 off and geek squad protection. As there isn't a thread already started, and typically the shipping and receiving dates are sometimes different from the carriers, can we get a waiting room/order progress thread for Best Buy orders going? (Or is this now considered it)
Ordered this morning around 4:30, Orchid Gray, S8, expected 4/21
I was considering getting it either directly from AT&T or elsewhere, but went with Best Buy for the exact same reason you did -- to save up to $100 on the device, haha.
Ordered the S8 in Orchid Gray last night in-store, and expected on 4/21. The guy who helped me with the pre-order said that they'd call/e-mail me once the device arrived to the store. Anyone that pre-orders will get priority to those who simply walk in at launch, which is why they contact you, so you can pick it up ASAP.

Oddly Best Buy has the S8 retail price at 819.99 and Verizon list it at 720.00. But the monthly payments purchasing at Best Buy is 27.91, which is 2.09 less than Verizon's 30.00 monthly charge. Why does Best Buy list the phone a hundred dollars more retail than Verizon? I think maybe it has something to do with Geek Squad coverage. The service charge for phones over 800.00 is 199.99 and it's 149.99 for phones under 800.00.

Ordered mine for verizon from bestbuy. After I confirmed my verizon info it took the price of the S8 down from 27.91 a month to 23.91 a month stating some change from verizon. Probably a glitch but hopefully it holds true.
Any idea when best Buy is shipping? Seems like everywhere else will get it early incl Verizon direct now. Bummer...
When I ordered at my local bestbuy store the rep told me that last year they had galaxy s7s in stock for a week or 2 before release and word didnt come down to release them until the day of (which was a week early and a surprise to staff etc...according to him) so I'm sure we won't hear a word until at least Monday. Unless someone decides to call and harass customer service lol

Canadian Carriers Pre-Order Shipping and Waiting Room

Since there are a lot of American and Europe threads on pre-ordered waiting rooms, I've decided to create one for us Canadians who have Koodo, Telus, Rogers, Bell, etc.
For me, I have Koodo. I ordered the Midnight Black Samsung S8 on March 31st. My delivery date says April 17th which is four days earlier than the folks down south. It will be interesting if we do get it that early.
How is everyone's order going thus far? Koodo unfortunately, does not have any tracking system, so I have to wait for an email to popped up in my inbox saying it has shipped. Not being able to check what stage it's on sucks big time.
Feel free to post on how your process is going!
Im telus preordered last week.
Mine says will be delivered as early april 17.
Guess we have to just wait and see.

First time pre-ordering a phone from a carrier. I usually buy it straight from the company but Koodo has a neat Tab system. Paid $700 down and the remaining $350 gets spread out over two years ($15/Month). But then again, I can pay off that $350 anytime.
Rogers phoned me yesterday to let me know the store has received my device and I can pick it up on the 17th Monday morning.
Samsung Experience Store..my preorder ready for pickup on 17th
Sent from my LG-D852 using XDA-Developers Legacy app
I know people on Rogers and Fido who got their calls that the phone is in and can be picked up on Monday.
I opted for Rogers' "pay now and get it early" option and it looks like mine isn't even getting shipped out until Monday. That's the first and last time I go for that option.
Got my email confirmation! Doesn't say the delivery date yet but I'm sure it's Monday like the rest of you!
Ordered mine from samsung.com lets see if i'll get it this year... maybe i should of went to the store.
Who is excited to get their phones tomorrow/Tuesday! I know I am!

Canada confirmed Snapdragon 835
Damnit, the north american section of the dev forums will be dead.

It's super smooth and fast.
Let's see how it fairs over time knowing Samsungs history
Feels great in hand S8+
Seeing a little pink/purple tinge in panel which is normal just hope it doesn't get too bothersome...will vary device to device
Had read it had brightest screen of any phone ever...will have to see
Keen on seeing what screen on time I can get tomorrow during normal usage...setting it up as we speak
