At least you can see what the email was about before opening.

If you checked that email on your phone you'd be even more pissed off.

I've got a Samsung 32gb c10, one of those water/shock proof cards. Once you do the sdcard cache mod to add 2/3/4mb the speeds are about accurate with the ratings.

If I would have bought Sprint stock with my S3 money, I would be between 40$ and 100$ ahead depending on if I bought it on contract or off contract.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gr33nd3vil:
im only stating the facts ;-)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
Heh that it is..and just posting the facts, cuz I'm positive most aren't aware. I don't have any 'hard' evidence of course, but that FACT, combined with they extra delayed launch so seem like they could be correlated. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] junior619:
I ordered a 32gb Samsung class 10 Saturday for $43 with shipping thru Amazon (which will be here the 21st go figure)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Anon9mouz:
What u pay on it and that the 24mb one that best buys selling for like retarded amount of money. It just looks so pretty idk why but I'm probably gonna get the otterbox before I get a sd . I still have the 16gb class 2 from the epic to hold me off with 32 internal :D

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aznmode:
16gb pre-orders just became out of stock. Either Sprint changed it or everyone switched orders.

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

There's also the fact that if you pre-order before the 28 you dont have to go with the new Verizon plans since your contract renews the day you pre-order. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevesprivateaccount:
I'm guessing they realized that the 32GB people are pissed off, so maybe they are pulling 16GB back as well. They also seem to have stated that the only stores that are getting the S3 are ones in the LTE launch cities...which seems about right, but today is the first I've heard of this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bizdady:
Well I just checked up on my preorders over at bestbuy and I think they dont like me either lol

Both my preorders are no showing :eek:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mr.lumbergh:
Ahhhggghhh week delay for 32gb :((

I hope I get it before the 29th since I was not so bright & had my phone shipped to my job in hopes of getting it asap. Major backfire I'm going on vacation starting the 29th!! Which a nice shiny new phone w/ great camera would be more than welcomed to be along in my pocket! LOL
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] antzvill:
if you called 866-789-8292 shipping department of sprint they will tell you the rumors are true 32gb expected to ship next week. 16gb expected to ship out tonight and tomorrow but standard delivery 2-5 business days. told the chat rep online that i showed that it had been shipped but i need tracking number cuz i live in bad part of town and need to be here to get it. she gave me that number above
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yahknow1:
That part doesn't make sense...They always ship overnight on phones or two-day minimum? not 3-5 day tho?? At least the last one I ordered like this did.. AND seems the general consensus everyone else has experienced too?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MadFlava:
I have a 16GB white preordered at Best Buy. I hope it doesnt get delayed. This OG Evo is like using a 486 PC.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yahknow1:
a 486...that was considered a SCREAMER in its day! lol i remember the 386...my first pc...lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GamerMYJ:
I just called, and spoke to two departments. They both say that the 16GB phones will be shipped tomorrow, with next day shipping. Sounded a bit clueless at first aha. They are probably all in the dark as much as we are.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] antzvill:
see he got the same thing i got after getting off the phone with them
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] G3noobie:
I just called BB and they said my pre-order is still set for delivery on 6/21 PB16GB
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pathtologos:
Not that I have proof or anything but I did call the natl best buy customer service number (which is on the email I received confirming my preorder) and of course the guy sounded kinda clueless but said "i don't see any delay with the release and unless you receive an email stating so, it is still anticipated to be available for u on date listed in email." That date happens to be 06/21/12. So, I guess I just gotta wait for that email--confirming that its ready for pick up, or that its delayed. I ordered 2 white 16 gb, btw.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pathtologos:
Exactly same thing I got.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CapsLockKey:
I'm guessing Sprint is putting more priority on shipping out the 16GB because they don't want to look like idiots if they lag behind their 3rd party pre orders like BB and Radio Shack. Nobody else has the 32GB even available so even though these customers paid more, they get put to the back of the queue.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gtafairlane:
Sprint's web site still shows launch of 16bg on the 21st. The 32gb just says coming soon.

Im old school :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReggieTee:
Currently have a MW 16GB on preorder at Best Buy. Anyone know if they'll get any 32gb in at launch? Surely Sprint doesn't have an exclusive on that forever. I'm willing to wait and extra week if it means I could pick up the 32gb.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:

Sprint release has been delayed until the 28th, they announced it after t-mobile announced there partial delay.

Here is a link

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/06/19/sprint-samsung-galaxy-s-iii-release-date-delayed/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
she said he said that they said... i dont believe it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jmstansell:
Everyone has been posting links to different blogs and such, but no one has posted a link to an official announcement. Shouldn't they have sent out a mass e-mail by now if that was the case?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
That's one thing I have been silently noting. This could be unless Sprint can't get enough to their 3rd party distributors, to accomodate those that ordered directly through Sprint. Just a S.W.A.G > scientific wild ass guess.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jbadboy2007:
I wouldn't be worried about it if you pre ordered it you will get it Thursday or Friday.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RawisTheGameHhH:
tada

http://community.sprint.com/baw/com...6/19/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-availability-update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Magic Oreo:
it says that wirefly is delayed until the 28th, sprint is still releasing the 16gb sgsIII on the 21st and delaying the 32gb till the next week. No where does it say that sprint is delaying its release to the 28th, read the article please.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] onilink67:
posted many times over the past few hours
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RawisTheGameHhH:
i was posting for the guy a few posts up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] El Nivek:
Sprint posted the announcement on their community page as well as their Facebook page. About as official as it gets?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] onilink67:
yea it was quite an assumption on his part it has been like 30 pages in 3 hours though :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
Just got back from the Atlanta release event.

Free drinks, free food and got to play with the S3 in several booths set up to show off the features. They gave out "points" at the booths and the top 20 with points won BB gift cards in a drawing. The grand prize was a Samsung blu-ray player and speakers thing. Was underwhelming there.

The best fun was had programming NFC tags with obnoxious URLs that were opened on the devices when people scanned them.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] onilink67:
any talk about the delay?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] surrealzz:
I called them! Spoke to the rep and in case u guys were wondering you can get put on the priority shipping list if u ordered on June 6th. That's what she told me. I ordered the white 32gb and she said I should be receiving it Tuesday if not then no later than Thursday of next week. Kind of good news. So give them a call if this applies to you! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] onilink67:
They ship new phones overnight so what extra does priority give you? Meaning they put they're hands on it sooner? If so why not just do that defaultly?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shane6374:
Well we can look at it this way, we've almost caught the Verizon thread for number of posts.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] surrealzz:
Well according to the rep she said it takes 2-5 business days. That it would get shipped out on this Friday!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Magic Oreo:
last time sprint shipped a phone to me it was overnighted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
I can tell you though, the S3 feels much better than the Evo LTE my friend had. The differences in the screen were imperceptible for daily use.

He is returning his Evo and getting an S3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] surrealzz:
There u go buddy! This guy said the same thing a couple post back. I wish it would be over-nighted, doesn't look like it though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jmstansell:
I understand that it was posted in the community, but everyone doesn't look there or facebook for that matter. I get on facebook maybe 3 or 4 times a month. I check my email every few hours. That's where my frustration comes from.

Is it that hard to send an email or make a note come up for the status when you check your order status. The system knows what everyone ordered, so why is it so damn hard for Sprint!?!?!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr Ian B:
Mine just told me the same. May not have enough phones for all pre orders but I am #2 or 3 on the list. They are not aware of delay of their shipments. They will be calling pre-orders on Wed night to determine stock available for Thursday pick up.

Best Buy outside Lakeline Mall, Austin Texas

Hope this is true.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Iphony89:
My cousin got the Evo 4g LTE yesterday and now wants a S3 instead, would sprint make a big hassle of that?

Sprint should offer us free activation. :D

I do completely agree
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Anon9mouz:
What's the info on this thing with apple is it looking like we might not get our phones or what BC I still haven't even gotten an email telling me I bought the phone but im going to start porting miui soon. Just sucks no phone to test with lol

I currently have epic touch and eligible for an up grade . I am not sure if i want start using Sprint slow 3G network until next year when their LTE is up and running. Or I'll jump ship to Verizon, however, their plans are pretty expensive
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] onilink67:
Understandable a lot of us are probably jumping as we never got to see WiMax anyways so its not really a difference except there is a chance we'll see LTE
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Anon9mouz:
I'm staying right where I'm at sprint will get their **** together its getting there just relax :rolleyes:

__________________________________________________
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] onilink67:
Dunno where that came from I wasn't saying sprint wouldn't get LTE out of there or be a repeat of WiMax was just stating WiMax won't be expanded and those of us that never got it in our area don't mind loosing the ability since we don't need it.

I can probably see how you jumped to the negative nancy conclusion since there are a lot of sprint haters out right now but I'm not one of them ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Anon9mouz:
Lol nah I ain't tripping screw it I know they will get there some day I don't even worrie as long as I can still call or text or using data I'm good. Things that I would need 4g for wimax or lte I'll just use wifi. Don't get me wrong lte will be great out and need to update rom or get this new mixtape or whatever.

__________________________________________________
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gingson:
The ONLY reason I am sticking with Sprint is that their plans are still reasonable than others. I've had two 4G capable phones but 4G Wimax never got to my area. It really sucks. The deceiving part of this is twice I got e-mails from Sprint informing me that wimax was now in my area. BS.

Anyway I pre-ordered SG3 and I hope that LTE will not be replaced by another faster technology. Lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Trina9:
Ditto here, plus I use my phone as a computer, so I use lots of data.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] IRatchett:
In case you didnt see this Ill post what sprints website states AGAIN

"Memory

16GB and 32GB internal memory(ROM), 32GB MicroSD card"

Not sure how you read things but this sure looks like it comes with 16gb OR 32gb INTERNAL memory AND 32gb microSD card.

Now if it doesnt come with it than it needs to be removed from the site.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Anon9mouz:
I'm curious about the 32gb SD bc they make it seem like ones pre loaded and if that's the case great but if not the need to edit there site to reflect that's it supports up to 32gb but I heard it supports up to 64gb so idk but if I get a 32gb SD card super love for 250 dollars of my money along with 32gb internal yummie can't wait hope apple doesn't **** us. Ne ways has ne one got a email confirmation on saying the purchased the phone me thing still haven't seen **** :rolleyes:

we cant even get some earbuds you really think they're gonna ship with a 32g card ......SMH
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smark72:
I

I have enough sense to know how to interpret what they mean and to know that no phone manufacturer or carrier is going to put 16GB or 32GB of internal storage in a phone and give you a 32GB card on top of it. Your right, they should correct the error.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smark72:
Just off the phone with telesales and was told that the phone will ship the 21st, the earliest. Which would mean we probably wouldn't see it til the 23rd. That doesn't make sense as you could go to a store and pick it up on the 21st. What is the point of pre ordering then, other than to ensure you get one from the first round of phones? Either way, not a huge deal. I am just getting anxious and my fiancee is waiting for my E4GT as her phone is almost unusable.

I also confirmed that there will be NO micro sd card included for those that were wondering from the way the spec list is worded.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jmstansell:
I googled that earlier today and couldn't find anything about Sprint just T-Mobile.

Wtf is up with waiting till late in the day to finally say something. All day they have had their CSRs and chat bots give the "on or before the 21st" or "soon," it's BS.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] G3noobie:
I just seen an ad on Yahoo for S3 for Verizon saying the next big thing is here on 6/21, that is a little false advertisement.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ladle3000:
Jessica repeated 4 or 5 times today that all 16 gb were to ship out "today, Tuesday the 19th."

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
Well I decided to call order support, and this is what I heard from Kyle, who was informed, and had prompt answers for all of my questions, regarding inventory and shipping. These were just his response, you can gauge the question based on the answer:

Kyle said they [Sprint] generally use standard ups ground, 2-5 day, but cuz this is a pre-order and they want them arrived by 21 june, Sprint opted for next day shipping.

16gb: orders will be shipping tomorrow, and should be next day shipping.

32gb: there is INDEED a delay due to inventory, and they said though should be rolling out mon/tuesday of next week.

The my order site showing 'backorderd' : this is the default response for a pre-order WITHOUT a tracking number; when the item has a tracking number [actually shipped] that status will change with the tracking number appearing.
