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.
Chose to have mine delivered to my local Voda store

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.

Can you not do that either way.
I always upgraded over the phone and got the phone posted to me but went into store for problems

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.

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!!!

So if you preorder at your local AT&T store, you won't get it til the 6th? The early delivery is online only?

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.

Guy in the store said they're getting them in Friday. He said I'd be getting a call Friday when it comes in.

Why preorder? Wouldn't it be a better idea just to wait until May 3rd to see what Samsung has to offer?

Cause they may be like me and not really care what Samsung is gonna offer. Or they are gonna get the One X and get the Samsung later this year when it appears on AT&T

I'm excited for this as well. T-Minus 12 days until I get my One X. So excited I could cry.

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.

Browse for the phone, then order
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.
Any one getting this phone? Sure hope so it looks great. I have the Note 4 but looking to take it back on Thursday when the Edge comes out. Hope we can get root on this phone..

Same boat as you. Note 4 on hand ready to be sold. Waiting to see what happens on Thursday, but don't hold your breath..........If root is found for the Verizon Note 4, it should be simple to port to the Edge.

Think Positive people!
I plan on getting one tomorrow. I'm kind of nervous that Verizon has still not confirmed the launch. I think that our hopes for root depend on the efforts of the Note 4 with it's huge bounty. If that bounty gets some publicity I would imagine some Linux pros could get on it and get it done. And if they get it done one of our awesome devs could port it to the Edge. My fingers are crossed. :fingers-crossed:

I can't believe I found one in the store on release day. Only store around me for 100 miles had just one. I lucked out since it was my nearest store. I flat out bought it. I Been playing with it all day. Now time to sell my practically brand new Note 4.

I'm positive that the chances are EXTREMELY small that you'll ever see a rooted Verizon Edge. No reason to get your hopes up. Don't waste your time and energy.

From what I've read in the Note 4 forums, finding root on Lollipop is more likely than finding root on KitKat. Also, there is supposed to be a Developer Edition released soon. While this won't help root on the retail version, that is another possibility if you really want root.
The Play Store in the U.S. says out of inventory for both the 16 and 32GB versions.
Is this phone coming back at all now? I found an article online that said that after Q1 2015 it is not available any longer.

The Play Store hasn't restocked too often since near the end of last year (and sells out too quickly when it does). You're better off looking elsewhere instead of waiting.

Therefore it doesn't belong in this thread.
@xdadevnube XDA's recommended place to look is Swappa, but pretty much anywhere will do as long as you try not to get scammed. Of course, you can also buy from a carrier store/retailer if you'd rather have a brand new one. Other than the two models for the different LTE bands (D820—US/D821—rest of the world), every Nexus 5 is the same.
