3. Free Protective Case - MSRP 9 +
4. $50 bucks gift card
CONS:
1. Only White and Black available
2. 50 bucks gift card can't be use against the phone order, it ships 4 days after invoice date.
***LINK TO NEWEGG
Already pre-order mine.... I finally decide to leave Samsung boat behind... switching from my Samsung Note 5
I took the B&H deal. $399 no tax, expedited shipping, $50 gift card, case, Garmin Vivofit 3 fitness band.
B&H is the best deal for those who live in California unless you really want the JBL BT headphones.

It is by far the best deal
Received mine today from new Egg. The blue tooth head phones are okay. But not great. My 1st pair, so nothing to compare it to. The phone is great though!

Newegg seems to have the best deal. Good to know the JBL headphones are ok.
Feb 10 I ordered a Sky Blue 1 TB S22U. It still shows on Samsung Shop as created with expected delivery March 08. Anyone ordered the same color and storage and received it yet?
I didn't order the same as you but ordered on same day. Just got email stating that they are not shipping until March 1st because of weather.
Awesome color choice. That's the best color in my opinion followed by red. I got the black 1TB unlocked on the 9th and received mine yesterday. 2-23-22. Came with the case with straps and buds pro. Today, 24th, I'll be getting the new Duo Charger and new 45 Watt Charger.

Thanks, I feel like my choice in color and storage will have me waiting to the 8th. No hope of getting it early it seems.
Will the 1TB model ever be back in stock in the USA Samsung store? I don't know which is more pathetic.
#1 My old Galaxy S10+ having 1TB of storage over 4 years ago.
#2 The removal of SD card storage.
#3 Total lack of inventory for people that need a proper amount of storage.

Time to give up? Been trying to buy a 1TB for about 6 weeks now, no sign it will ever be in stock again.
Samsung has done this over the past three years. The top tier storage model mostly attracts early adopters then as demand drops off after a few months, they stop making them. I'm sure with supply chain issues, this tactic makes sense. You may have to settle for 512 GB or buy through a third party.
Curiosity got the best of me, wanna try that flip4 to see what is it about so, I traded my S22 vanilla for $650. Fair trade I think, I paid $799 for the S22 256GB and now adding $350 I'll have the flip, blue, also 256GB plus a free blue silicon cover. Novelty, but I'm hoping that the flip form has its pluses, small in the pocket and then: voila! got 6.7" screen. I'm also curious about that Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, supposedly no heating issues and a positive reviews about battery endurance.
Lesser camera setup comparing to S22 and that's ok, I enjoyed the S22 mostly as being a 'pocket' phone, I also have the 22U to carry around if I'm expecting to spot something interesting for photos/videos.
I also found out today, after placing my order with Samsung, that am gonna be able to pick-up the package personally, right from the BestBuy store - no more worries about unreliable/tricky Fedex deliveries.
You said it, the "small in the pocket" is what this phone has to offer. I have a Z Flip3 that I'm upgrading. I'll never go back to a brick in the pocket.
I lucked out on the announcement day by getting $900 for my current Flip3, for a blue Flip4 with 256GB and a blue case, for $99. I thought it was a great deal, and on Tuesday, August 23 I'll know for sure. ;-)
I pre-ordered the Flip 4 with a Flip 3 trade in for make value. Also picked up the watch 5 pro and buds pro 2. It was too much of a deal to pass up. My daily driver is the s22 plus. FedEx has my delivery possibly for tomorrow. The package is already at my local FedEx hub.
I really wanted the watch and new buds. I may just sell the Flip 4. Hopefully everything is delivered tomorrow.
Ordered mine 5 minutes into presales available. Said delivery would be today. Nope. Got a tracking number stating next Thursday and tracking number not even active after almost 2 days. Go figure...

Here in the US? That sucks. I ordered flip4 blue on 8/19 and picked it up at BestBuy today. The retail sales at Bb starting tue 8/30. And I was just complaining in the other thread here that the bestbuy doesn't handle trade-ins returns.
Yep, waiting in USA
Made an order for a black 256gb 7 Pro. $999 minus $540 trade in for a 6 Pro in 256gb and also received a $200 Google store credit promotion.
I got my order in! 2 black 256gb. 1 for me and my girl.
Hazel, 512GB here. $275 for a Pixel 3XL trade is not too shabby, considering they are going for well under $200 on Swappa. Guess I can use the $200 credit for a tablet, or nest device.
Hazel here. Something different as the last 6 Pixels were black.

Here in Canada, they're offering a whopping $71 for 3XL. Why bother?
I did a 256gb snow from Best Buy in the USA. This is the first time I have a viable trade in option (pixel 6 128gb) so I signed up for that too but we'll see what the final offer is. My pixel 6 is pristine but I'll wait for the in person offer and decide - $480 seems high and I just don't trust anything these days. Got the $200 e-gift card for my mac mini purchase down the road. Hopefully no faulty first device like my Pixel 6 that I had to return and the 2nd one worked like it should have.
Got mine from the Google store. Traded in my P6P for $480. Here's to hoping that the radio is better on the P7P.
In the UK the trade in was £320 for P6P so not worth (when £500 on ebay) it but i assume thats because the watch comes with pre orders, which makes it a really good deal. Upgraded on the strength of the macro and zoom lenses and hoping the caonectivity/modem is better
Preorderded the 128GB in black with EE, and will get the Pixel Watch LTE chucked into that for free
Does anyone have modem information used on the P7P?

Google hasn't offered any info yet, there is just the leak/romour that the P7 Pro will use a new/unannounced Samsung Exynos 5300 modem.
According to
First details of Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro come roaring out: 2nd-gen Tensor, new Samsung modem
9to5Google has uncovered concrete details of the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, including the devices’ codenames, Tensor chip, and Samsung modem.
9to5google.com
"GS201 chip will feature a – currently unreleased – Samsung modem with the model number “g5300b.” For comparison, the Pixel 6 lists its modem as “g5123b,” which is the Exynos Modem 5123. Given the model number, we believe Google’s second-generation Tensor chip will have the Exynos Modem 5300"

Since Google doesn't offer any info on their website about the modem, we'll probably have to wait for a teardown/review where the modem either gets read out in software, or someone takes the phone apart and can tell us what's inside.
Still in wait and watch mode.... for now.
Ordered White P7P and Matte Watch. I'll take the $480 from Google for my P6P and use the $200 for Buds Pro.
P7P 256GB Hazel (time to mix it up a bit: all my prior phones have been black) and P7 128GB Obsidian. $400 credit (=$800 total) at the Google Store for each of two Pixel 5s 128GB.
What's the consensus on the color for the 7 Pro?
I just pre-ordered snow (or white), but the hazel with bronze accent looks really good also.
P7P 128 Obsidian here.
I preordered a Pixel 7 Pro 256GB in Hazel with a free Pixel Watch LTE from the UK Google Store. That was too good an offer to pass up.

I am in the same boat as you. I grabbed a Snow P7P 256GB model and am trading in my Black P6P 256GB. The remaining price had disgruntled me at first, however, I couldn't resist doing the upgrade to what appears to be a device that has the few extra features that would cause the phone to be perfect for 2-3 years of my usage.
I am, however, still rather worried about the colors... I was so torn between the Snow and Hazel models - and I don't know if going with the white one was the wrong/right choice... I can't really see them in person first and so I'm torn by only getting to see a few quick glimpses of the backs of the phones in some of the online video overviews...
P7P on pre-order with LTE watch as gift on O2 UK
I`m curious who ordered, I ordered the Coral 7a, I love brighter color phones, and once I saw the Coral color I had to have it lol, I already have my tracking number and hopefully be delivered tomorrow.

I have the new Sony Xepria 1 V on preorder, which just went on Pre-order today, and I`m using the S23 Ultra right now, I just find the S23 Ultra to Bulky for daily use, I love the camera`s...... but not very pocket friendly sometimes, I have used the Pixel 6a which I love the size of that, only thing I wish it had was wireless charging, now the 7a has wireless charging and more ram from 6gb to 8gb and the Tensor 2 chip, plus the Coral color looks beautiful, I didn`t do any trade-ins, with the Coral 7A and the free Series A buds and I added the coral case 29.99 and I paid for next day shipping 20.00 , total was $581.72, but once I get the 7A tomorrow, I`m selling my s23 ultra.

Great thanks. Let us know your review when you get it. I know that initially it will take a little time to settle but give us a running total as it were.
Ive been using OP 10 Pro and Im looking to upgrade this to the Pixel 7a. Ill mostly purchase the device by today or tomorrow!
Just ordered one on Amazon - originally put in one for the coral 7A on the store but waiting 12 days for shipping is pretty stupid. I do miss the free buds and coral colour though; I should have the sea 7A by tomorrow.
Using the F3 right now, it's solid when with a ROM but power button has been acting up as of late. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't at least partly into the 7A to have the chance to rock an otterbox again lol

I would call that a 'switch', or downgrade. Certainly not upgrade.

Im kinda bored of the OnePlus 10 Pro and I dont have that budget for a Flagship Pixel device. I also want to experience the Stock Android everyone's been talking about so I thought why not?

You have fallen for the hype, unfortunately. But it is okay to experience different brands for fun. Enjoy your new phone!

No, just enjoy your purchase. He's a Pixel hater (for the most part) and a Google foil. Don't let him get to you. Look at his previous posts and you'll see what I'm talking about. Almost every chance he gets it's bashing Pixel/Google. I think it's going to be a great phone and well under the cost of the P8. Let us know how you like it.
One quick example but there are a ton of them. He's certainly entitled to his own opinion but it gets a little much sometimes.
Will pixel 7a be 499?
Heard lots of people talking about 499 dollars? WIl lit better than galaxy a54?

Pretty peeved with UPS. On the plus side, I have my Pixel 'A' Buds... that I don't care about. They also suggested that I update the address early today, but gave no way to do so. I'm sure it just didn't get on the truck, and this is them covering for it.
Edit:
UPS: The package doesn't have your street name or number, call the shipper
Google: Sure it does, and the most recent status is "On the way"
Great, maybe I'll get a phone... eventually. Way to harsh my vibe Google.

That sucks, yeah funny you got the Pixel A buds first, I thought they were coming in the same box as the phone, but my Pixel A buds just shipped today separate, I`ll just turn around and re-sell them anyways, I was glad to get my 7A today since I sold my S23 ultra today.
received my 7A 2 days after release. coming from an Asus Zenfone 8 that died on me with no warning. feels pretty good to go back to pixel phones!

It runs great, I haven't had any lag or stutters, I love it.... Battery is decent , I`m no power user, it`s very snappy with the 8gb ram compared to the 6gb the 6A , and love the coral color, I rooted it and using Magsik and AOSP MOD, repainter app., has wireless charging that the Pixel 6A didn`t have, I liked the pixel 7A enough , I actually sold my S23 ultra yesterday, but I do have the new Sony Xperia 1 V on preorder, in my opinion the Pixel 7A is a great buy!!
Edit: also it has face unlock, which the pixel 6A doesn`t, still has the plastic back, but doesn`t bother me.
