Maybe, but the Samsung screen is gorgeous and that's coming from an iPhone 4 user. I know the sensation has a qhd screen, but the super amoled plus is impressive.
I just want to get my hands on a sensation. Am soooo impatient!
I thought the release date was the 18th.
Have just spoken to them on the phone and Vodafone aren't getting them until the 18th and may not dispatch until 19th was the message I just got????
Yes, the UK Vodafone website says:
Pre-order yours today and we will aim to deliver your order by the 19th May

Ahh fcuk it !!!!!
Thought we would get some action today.
Was under assumption that u could walk into VF store amd just buy it today
Another week of waiting.
This and the thought of a nexus 3 at xmas
My head really hurts.....
Think I'll just buy a Nexus 3 (providing it's good) at Christmas. I mean, we know the software will be good...but the hardware is a different matter altogether (especially if it's by LG )
Can't wait until we get some real good user reviews of the Sensation
The VF UK website always said "Expect to receive your device around 19th May"
Pre-ordered mine, so hoping to get one soon! Should get an email day of dispatch.

That's what I am hoping too. Also I believe that if anything goes wrong with the handset you can just take it back to the store rather than sending it back?
Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think with orange you have to send the handset back if you get it online. O2 told me that after the first 30 days I can go instore. Not sure about the other networks.

Does any one have an idea when we can psychically buy a transformer in a store?
I have loose reports that Best Buy is getting a "full tablet assortment" in May. (By loose reports I mean hearsay from a Best Buy Mobile manager.) My best guess would be next week or the one after.

I actually got my Transformer yesterday from a physical store in CA -- Frys Electronics.
I got mine from a B&M Frys store yesterday too, but I don't think it's gonna help since as far as I know the stores that had them only have *ONE* each.
I was there at 8:20 and when I was at the counter getting the papers printed, someone else was asking for it.

what city??
Surprisingly I picked up mine today at the Tempe, AZ Fry's store. Just saw it online around noon and ordered it for an in-store pickup.
Then I was nervous for the next few hours I had to stay at work hoping it wasn't a mistake or they wouldn't accidentally give it to someone else. But I got to Fry's and held my breath at the counter and it felt like it took her forever to retrieve it, but she finally came back with it in hand.
I thought for sure I was screwed and might be waiting weeks for this thing to come in stock since I'm not the type of person to spam F5 on NewEgg at 3 oclock in the morning or get in a line at a retail store (like the Apple folks do). Think I just got really lucky this time I guess. It was the last one at the store.

Oh, only one store in Indiana. And according to their website they don't have any...
In fact, not one single Frys in the US is showing stock.

Thats what came up roughly a couple hours ago (attachment), I just tried it again and it said 0
I was excited.
I've been to bb today and the guy who couldn't tell me specific details buy he did say they are changing the desktop space for tablets and in may they will definitely have all tablets... I think it's true they are pushing the playbook hard so they probably have to give it a exclusive launch schedule till may... gonna be a hot summer!

I've been trying to get a date out of my two local Best Buy shops and the best I have been able to get is a single sales girl who said they got an email yesterday morning that said BBY would not receive them until mid May. That's these two stores at least.
I'm still going to bug the crap out of them though until I get one because without a date in their system it can still arrive tomorrow.
The title says it all! The woman at AT&T said that the people who pre-order before the second will have the devices at their doorstep on the fourth! I am excited for this forum to be my new home! I hope we have a lot of wonderful Dev support!!!

Really? Normally you get it early if you get it shipped to your home. Stores are generally prohibited from giving you the phone before the release.
EDIT:Yeah, store pickup is the 6th.

Plus if the GS3 has everything you have ever wanted and somehow will hit att in 2 weeks.. you could cancel the preorder
Just got done placing the order in store (white model). I was worried they wouldn't honor the free upgrade fee that I usually get from the website (they did honor it). I did however find out that my $15 (200MB) data plan was no longer available and I would have to go up to the $20 (300MB) plan. Even then they were pressuring me hard to go with the bigger data plan. Told the guy to look at my current usage on the account...which was 20MB so far. Didn't seem to matter to him. Told me he uses 200MB before making it to work in the morning. This is why I like doing everything online. Still, $212 after tax and everything feels about right for this phone. Used it for the first time in the store and loved it!
The manager told me that as soon as the phone arrives at the store he will give me a call and I can get it that day which should be Friday the 4th at the very latest, but expects it much earlier than that.

I got black. While the white looks sexy (my friend has the international version), I prefer the black.
I was debating whether to wait t see what sammy has to offer on the third, however:
1) my HTC Aria is really starting to show its age
2) while the phone may be announced on the third, they may not even mention when it will be coming to the US; and I'm not about to wait around for six months unsure if it will even come to AT&T.
3) there is no guarantee that the SIII will be available at the steal of a price that the One X will is
4) If by chance that all of these factors fall in favor of the SIII, one can always return the One X, fight the re-stocking fee and pick up the SIII
P.S. I just ordered these two items from Amazon. This phone needs to be protected incredibly well because when I ride my motorcycle, the phone goes in the jacket pocket with all of my other belongings...
Case
Screen Protector
Did anyone order a case and/or a screen protector in advance? I'd like to know what the options are! I personally am a favor of TPU. Keeps the bulk down, yet does the job.

Tried to place an order on the AT&T website twice in the past hour, but when I click to upgrade phone, the website has an error and can't process the request. It was working fine this morning (didn't have time to pre-order, just looked at it)
Im not much in to preordering but I plan on getting this phone, I went to my local store a couple hours ago and they dont have any on display, hell they barely even knew what I was talking about lol which is weird since they did announce it being preordered.

I just noticed this line in my upgrade pre-order confirmation:
You have chosen to upgrade your device with no-commit pricing. Please note, SIM cards are not included with no-commitment orders. If you need a new SIM card, please place your order at a store near you, or by phone at 1-888-333-6651.

So I guess no micro-SIM in the box for me... Hopefully the store can take care of that for me... Does anyone know how funny they would be "upgrading" my plan from my 4gb tether data plan to the LTE 5 GB tether plan? It won't let me do it online...

Yep, I checked the store today and they did not have it in stock. They had an open space to display it, but no stock. They said that a lot of people have been asking about it. They didn't know when it would arrive, but it might be as much as a month after it is listed online.

Was told the same thing, minus others asking about it when I went to check.
I called my local Best Buy. The lady stated that her computer said it will be in stock on 22nd - 23rd of July. So hopefully only another week!

That fondue pot's looking pretty good XD. I didn't see it this morning, it's there now. I ordered over the phone and the expected delivery date is the 19th-24th.
EDIT: Anyone notice that the dock is $160 at Best Buy?
EDIT2: A side note...they offered a warranty of some sort (I didn't really listen, I just wanted to get the thing ordered already), some Geek Squad warranty against physical damage like drops and breaks, it even covered water damage. Anyone think that would be worth it? I don't think I'll be taking my tablet to the shower with me anytime soon, but it might be helpful if it's actually a good service and I do happen to break it.

Nothing from Samsung and their website said order from them to get it first. Blah.
Nothing from TMobile. I was hoping for it to ship today.

When you get it, could you install this app and let me know if you can choose more than 2 Camera ID's?

Ordered my Watch 4 Classic BT in black at the end of August and it still has not shipped. Been delayed three times. Then I randomly get a watch 4 black band shipped to my door that I did not order and watch is still on backorder with no shipping date. Samsung no help either.
Anyone having this issue? Or am I just getting the run around?

Only reason I have not canceled is because I was able to use Samsung credits. Only paid $40 for the watch. Maybe that's why. They know I didn't pay anything for it. Lol
