Pre Order Waiting Room Australia - Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

Anyone have experience with star track? Says shipped yesterday but tracking yet to update. Pre-ordered on announcement day. White 128

Ordered the Orange XL 64 from their site this morning, saying 2-3 week wait
Should have realized the White and Black was in stock

Tracking updated, should be here tomorrow, hopefully...

You'd think they'd have shipped them a day before release

I know, right! Well that's tomorrow planned wait by the door..

Got mine on release day from JB hi-fi. Orange 64gb. Have to say, it's pretty sweet, bit I can't wait for TWRP to be released. Feels so wrote using a non rooted device heh.
Gestures work a treat, everything is super responsive, no weirdness with my cameras or screen, and honestly, having Pikachu on my home screen is baller.
9.5 / 10. Only thing holding it back is no under screen fingerprint scanner. They could've crammed it into the device if they were willing to make the device a TOUCH thicker. I'd totally have been cool with that, but I'm not bummed out. A Pixel is a Pixel. Pure Android at is finest, baby!

[Q] Transformer Bundles pad + keyboard comet UK

Comet now have these in stock for dispatch, i just ordered mine for tomorrow and have received a confirmation of delivery email (if that means anything)
Fingers crossed here's hoping
http://www.comet.co.uk/p/Tablets/buy-ASUS-Eee-PAD-TRANSFORMER-BUNDLE-Tablet/717711
Thanks for the pointer I've ordered one too but I'm not over-confident I will have a TF in my hot hands by Friday somehow. It seems odd that neither Ebuyer or Amazon for example have stocks, and I seem to recall Comet as being optimistic regarding stocks of the (minus dock) TF's too.
Actually reading all the tales of woe re screen bleed, troublesome docks etc, I wonder if I've made a wise decision but life's too short and I've taken a chance
Comet can have these bundles within 2 weeks. Thanks to a contact in comet

Think positive!
I emailed them yesterday with that same question 'how come you get yours in stock and amazon say june 1st'? They emailed me back this morning saying they were due in today so i've been watching the website all morning waiting for it to be updated, when i saw it i rang them to confirm and gave them my details, they then rang back to confirm delivery tomorrow by parcel force for which i paid an extra £5.60
If they don't turn up a local store is going to get a brick through it's window

I went into my local store Saturday and the guy checked stock at the CDC which said delivery due 10th. I went in after work today and it was right they got them ready to be sent out so ordered one for in-store collection and picking it up Friday if you don't want to order online go in and do what I did. I only paid £399 as I took out the extra care so did me a deal so all in I only actually paid £485 with the service plan as I got 10% off buying vouchers through my work I'm a happy boy lol
Just ordered the bundle as well. I hope the keyboard will come with the US layout like on the pictures and not the UK layout.
Due in on Friday!
I received my Transformer from Comet yesterday, when I ordered it on Monday they told me they had 78 in stock.

I did, i bought one a month ago when they first became available, but no scrollable widgets or browsers worked so i sold it again, (paid £375 sold for £440)
My new one with keyboard arrived today, so no bricks will be thrown, (at least not at comet)

I ordered my bundle on the 4th April and Comet have had my money since then. To hear that someone who ordered YESTERDAY received theirs instantly is just infuriating.
I'm off to Comet after work. F****** ridiculous.

When i had mine a month ago all i had was the slate, they didn't get any stock of keyboards until yesterday and i was straight on the phone.
Just ring up the service centre direct 0844 800 95 95, all a store will do is give you some BS about availability
The keyboard is awesome, increases productivy a 1000 percent, the keys have a really good feel, and the touchpad is very fast, haven't worked out how to adjust speed.
Been using it for about five hours with general use, setting up ADW EX, a bit of youtube, web browsing, emails, and it's only gone down 15 percent!
Well indeed I should have had more faith my order arrived this morning as promised Must admit I was surprised when just one box arrived as I've always seen the pad and dock in two separate boxes but sure enough they were both inside.
No juice at all in the pad though some in the dock just a quick look and no sign of back-light bleed (with the start-up dark background).
Must say I love the look of the TF and dock, feels solid and well made
Damn the long initial charge time I want to play with my new toy
Took delivery of mine today from Comet, plugged in an power on BAM! Screen bleed!! All edges are corners, pretty bad. Went to my local store to return and refund and they have awful customer service. They treated me as if I was lying "oh I dont see a problem", well its not you who purchased it?
Anyway got a refund in the end. Having now had 2 faulty Asus transformers and 7 faulty iPads I think its time I walk away from tablets.....
I now have my bundle in hand after picking it up from Comet and its amazing can't believe how small the box was with both in I had to ask if both were there lol I also picked up a nice bag for it which I'm happy about.

Are you in the UK at the moment? I'm currently in the US and will have my keyboard delivered next Wednesday (US Layout)...I then return to the UK on Saturday. Would you be interested in a swap? I'm not overly bothered about having a US keyboard but a UK layout would be a bonus.
Ordered one from comet to arrive today....
Didn't arrive... Comets customer support leaves alot to be desired for... such as support

Anyone else "duked" by amazon on the skyrocket ??

want to hear from others that were wronged by amazon wireless.... After doing my research on what phone I wanted, I took advantage of the deal going on @Amazon wireless on Thanksgiving, where you got the skyrocket for a penny--- went thru the steps---approved thru AT&T--showed IN STOCK ordered it.... Supposed to ship within one week (2 day free shipping...yeah right) So the next day I return to the site to gain more info---now I see the skyrocket is "not available" backorder... Thought , good thing I bought yesterday (said IN STOCK when I cashed out) so I check my order and find that ship date is JAN. 9 ! Ordered on Nov 24th, I called in and found that they threw me in the backorder pool...That is BS I told them , because it said IN STOCK when I purchased... Had this info been laid in front of me @ time of purchase I may have done something diff. Even now if you go to the site, it will show "backordered, ships in 1 - 2 weeks--really? And my order from Nov 24th goes all the way to Jan 9th? So, looking for others wronged by Amazon..... . I also checked with both at&t and Samsung. ...no shortage of skyrockets........... Thanks for listening
Sorry about your bad luck my friend. Mine showed up from Amazon two days after I ordered it.

I ordered on the 21st and didn't get it until the 28th because Amazon shipped too late in the day for ups to send it on time in 2 days.
I also ordered on Monday 11/21 and got mine Wed. 11/23...sorry for your bad luck. But you still got it for $.01 right? I've checked prices and they're now at $189 or something.

Ordered the 22nd and got it overnight the 23rd..got to play with it on my days off for thanksgiving.
Republic wireless has hosed me though..i ordered from them the same go-live night and i am not getting shipped till xmas..that's a month and half late..
hope its worth the $19 unlimited everything deal for my wife.
Wow bummer.. least its only a penny for the wait
I ordered on the 25th and it said I should get it Dec 8th. I'll check and verify that's still the case. When I ordered it, it said it was out of stock, so I was expecting a delay. But Jan??? That's a bit much.
Amazon Wireless actually sent me two Skyrockets.
I originally placed an order but was required to do a manual review by ATT/Amazon and was too lazy to do it at the time so a few days later I placed another order and actually did the manual review. After I finished the manual review I got a confirmation of the first order as well as the second one.
I get two shipping emails but only one new number email. I figure it is a mistake and that Amazon would catch it before shipping after the Thanksgiving Holiday. A few days later I have two Amazon boxes sitting at my front door. I only opened one line but have this extra Skyrocket sitting on my desk.
I love Amazon.
EDIT: I'm sorry if I got your phone.
Oh you got my phone! I'll PM you my address si tgat you can forward it to me ASAP
LOL

eh i got a 249$ phone for .01 ... even though it took a week to arrive i am still happy with it.
at least they still honored the .01 price if it was out of stock .. most black friday sales just tell you that you are sol if the item is out of stock.

Tracking says it got delivered today.
I ordered on 25th as well and mine should be delivered tomorrow. Along with SGS II and Captivate Glide (Moving 3 lines from Tmobile)
I ordered 1AM on Tuesday and it arrived 3PM on Wednesday. I was actually impressed because I was expecting it the following Monday after the holiday.
I'm sorry you still have to wait. But for a $.01...I wouldn't mind the wait. Maybe you can get them to send you a white one?

I think my wait was attributed to Captivate Glide because it was suppose to ship in "8 - 10 days".

Amazon's customer service is top notch. They use all their muscle to right any wrongs. My guess is that you will be getting your device much sooner than Jan 9.

Ordered mine today (pre order actually)

and am looking forwards to receiving it. I know the processor is only the 845 but I am getting it primarily for the camera setup as I take lots of photos with my phones. Anyone else pre order theirs yet? I live north of Boston, Ma.

You can also just walked into a BestBuy and get it for $599 this week. I think I need to do that to get a hands-on and check out the camera app speed. A few seconds delay between the shots sounds a little too much.
I currently have the device and downloaded a pixel camera apk that seems compatible with it. Though question I must ask, does all five cameras work on third party camera apps as well… (night scape on this device would be fantastic). Nokia 9 five cameras’ design using a compatible pixel 3 camera apk would make me not purchase the google pixel 3 xl.
I picked mine up at Best Buy last Friday (March 1). Some locations had them available.

What are your thoughts? I picked one up as well, but haven't opened the box yet.
I ordered one from B&H, not sure when they ship but I'm happy just knowing I have one reserved for now.
I ordered one from B&H too! Hopefully they get some stock this week. Might arrive faster than the S10!
Very Excited.
I'm in the UK and I pre-ordered on the 28th Feb.
I have been on the fence about buying a new phone for around a year and I hadn't seen anything about this phone before the 27th. It hauled me down off the fence quicker than I expected, especially when I saw the UK price with the earbuds thrown in.
Really excited about the potential of the camera and the early review shots have looked great.
Although Best Buy has it on hand(at some stores at least) I preferred to order from BH Photo . Best Buy charges $25 for returns while BH does not charge for returns and it is free shipping to/from them. I have bought a lot of gadgets from Best Buy and BH and , BH photo usually has the best customer service. Of course BH does not charge taxes either (they are located in NYC) and I live in Massachusettes. Shipping from BH photo , when supply is in, is 1-3 days.
Looks like B&H may ship tomorrow according to an email I just got:
"Released in limited qty 03/05/19"
Quoted from my order,under the phone description

Also in the UK, ordered March 3rd and it is saying expected shipping date is April 1st, which is later than some other regions. I need to replace my S7 Edge and I'm seeing this device as a bit of an upgrade over the OnePlus 6T. I suppose I could wait for the OnePlus 7 but I expect that device to be more expensive and have no wireless charging. Also the camera is a bonus, and HDR10 support on the screen will be interesting to try.
Nokia are also claiming HDR video recording, though I am not sure what that really means yet.
Mine should be here tomorrow! Super excited
Interesting to hear that the phone is available in some markets. Ordered mine, but no indication on when the delivery starts in the Netherlands. Some rumors say 15 March, others early April.

Best Buy, but it looks like they're sold out of them now. I originally did B&H, but on Tuesday I saw BB was promising delivery date of the 7th so I canceled my order with B&H and went with BB.

I pre-ordered mine from Best Buy on the 3rd of March, at around 3am. I received it yesterday (7th) from UPS at around 3pm. I am near Cleveland Ohio. I chose the free shipping, surprisingly I was expecting UPS to hand it off to USPS because it was sure-post method, but UPS ended up delivering it. I have to go to the AT&T store today to get a nano SIM, my current/old phone was a micro SIM, so I have yet to power it up and trying it out. I will later today *crosses fingers*.

When will Google start shipping phone

Does anyone know when Google will start to actually ship the phone. I keep seeing "pre-order" on the Google store page.
One would think they have to start shipping end of this week in order to be here by the 18th-19th? Unless they are going to do 2 day shipping on all phones?
The option to cancel the order is gone now for me. So looks like there's finally movement. I ordered as soon as available.
Mine is on its way. Shipped yesterday and will be delivered today.
*Edit* Delivered this morning.
Mine arrived yesterday.
mine was delivered this morning
Yep, got mine today as well. I think majority of the people who pre-ordered are getting it delivered today.
I got mine today. I'm satisfied with it as a replacement for a moto x4. Now I've got to decide if I replace the other moto x4 as well, and, even more importantly, trying to guess how long I have to make that decison before Google stops selling the 4a. I'm concerned that this might be a limited run that disappears when the 4a 5G and the 5 hit the market.
got mine today. its pretty nice
Got mine yesterday ?
I ordered august 12 and it says delivery September 11-12
Got mine today. What a great little device for $350! I hope the low price means we'll have a large development community
Hate you all. I ordered on the 10th and it still says 4-7th of next month. :/
How's the experience guys? Just like the reviews? Mine from Singapore and won't be delivered till next month?
Where did you order guys ? My Google Store says I'm on waiting list for 1 week

Question So Who has pre-ordered?

Just pre-ordered the s23+ in Green, (never liked the square design of the ultras) to replace my Pixel 6 pro. This is my first Samsung since the Galaxy S3.
I pre-ordered going from S20+ to S23+. Honestly, I am not that excited about this phone as I think S20+ is one of the greatest phones they've produced in recent memory. By doing this "upgrade", I am losing a lot of features and options. I am still debating with myself if I should cancel the order and keep the S20+ for another year...
Here is the list of downgrades: No SD card, RAM reduced from 12GB to 8GB, No MST, lower pixel density, fewer cameras, slower wireless charging, No FM radio, and probably a few other things...
My main reasons for buying it are: bigger battery, more storage space, faster processor, and I'm worried my S20+'s battery would degrade even more as it ages...
Yep, graphite expected in 3-4 weeks, 1+8 retiring as it will only get security updates this year and the 10/11 have no released bootloop tool
Hello to replace my p7pro that I sold I bought this Monday the s23plus that I received yesterday ( Boulanger marketplace in France)
Have had mine for a few days now. Upgraded from s10+ as my battery had degraded so the phone wouldn't hold a charge.
A bit different having no buttons on the left, no headphones socket, no sdcard but I guess no modern phone has kept all these features.
Scrolling is very smooth, but otherwise I've set the phone up identically to the s10+ so I've not really noticed any difference yet.
I hope I can find a way of making the torch load by holding one of the physical buttons like I did on the s10+. (I know I can use double click on thr power button but I want that to be the camera).
Just pre-ordered the s23+ in Green to replace my S22+!
Received today.
Where are you located? Mine was shipped today, but FedEx says they won't deliver till Wednesday of next week even if it gets here sooner.
Québec, Canada. Phone was in stock in Ontario.
Samsung said they will send my phone February 8. That's what they did and received it February 10 with Fedex!
Graphite so 3 weeks wait or so

I did the same. Although design and exteriour changes are minimal, the way the S23+ performs compared with S22+ is way way better. Oh, and I can easily get 5-6h SOT whereas with my S22+(snapdragon) I never passed 4h-4.5h.
still waiting for mine from EE in UK.
Was going to get it from samsung direct but the website wouldnt allow me to cash out so thought id just do it through EE. Got a text recently saying "good news we will deliver earlier than expected" and heard nothing since.
Just pre-ordered the S23+ in Graphite
They said they had it in stock at time of purchase but are now saying up 4 week wait
EDIT: The date changed to a 7 week wait!!!
Have just cancelled and re-ordered the S23+ in Phantom Black instead.... Should be in my hands Saturday morning
Finally got mine, set it up last night and just going through all the app installations. I prefer setting them up fresh rather than from backups
