Anybody's package stuck in IL like mine? Hasnt moved sinceSaturday. I hope my phone didn't get lost :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] DNA:
Mine was shipped last Friday from KY also and it's arriving today which is a day earlier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] KevinLa93:
:[ did your status update frequently or did it update after it was on its way getting delivered?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] yes_thisis_joey:
I just got the black sapphire as a place holder. And with the tmobile jump feature, that I wanted anyway, when the gold comes in stores (because it's terribly back ordered they said) I can trade my black one for a gold one. Also I could only afford the 32gb at the time, but when I get my gold one I'll be paying for the 64gb instead. I can only do so after I've paid off half the phone, however.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xEVILFREDx:
Well everyone. I got mine yesterday. Rooted it and all. 64 GB Gold Galaxy S6 Edge. No complaints now. Just had an issue when rooting that I use the S6 Edge root method when it seems to brick all phones. But just went back to download mode and apply the S6 root and work like a charm. Loving it for now. Does get hot very quick.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] flamingoezz:
For those who got it -- first impression of the color? When I saw it at best buy it seemed SUPER reflective. curious on whether it looks better in normal lighting. i think verizon is pretty stingy on restocking so i want to make sure ill like the color before it arrives.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] xEVILFREDx:
It looks more silver in bright areas. Darker areas shows the gold a bit. Overall, I would prefer the green. But since the US is not getting it. Lastly, as expected, this phone is a finger magnet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] eagle_j:
same here. I assume it had left IL , and is on the way to your city. UPS will update an arrival scan once it arrives your state
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] KevinLa93:
Yeah i got a update earlier, phone currently finally reached CA.

What case are you using?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] bajasur:
I'm using a spigen rigged tpu case... DO NOT GET IT! It doesn't fit. Taking it back and getting different case
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] eighty1:
What case are you looking to go with? I've gotten used to big phones so I'm looking for a case to help add a tad bit of bulk and grip.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] KimmyMeza:
Uhmmm?!?!?

I pre-ordered my phone super late....April 9th...but anyway the payment was made and the t-mobile site kept saying "back ordered" this morning it changed to "shipped" but i still don't have a tracking number and i tried searching it on the UPS site with my phone number and the order shows up but it doesn't show anything has moved...about how long did it take for your guys' order to start moving ?

I did talk to a t-mobile agent and they said my phone is guaranteed to ship no later than 10 days after my order has been placed...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] bajasur:
I just switched out for incipio dual pro case.. I feel far less anxious now. This device seems super fragile and I was terrified with that other case.

This incipio case has an awesome lip on the top and bottom above the screen so when you place is face down the screen doesn't touch surface
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] hslayer:
For those who received their Gold version, can you please tell me your manufacture date and country that it was made in?

Also any gold version with screen defects? (scratch, bubble and etc)

Lastly, is the wait time really 2 to 4 weeks if I place an order now for 32GB Gold?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] moonyla83:
received

Alright, so I ordered my 64 gold edge on Saturday morning, and incredibly the store received it yesterday. The guy at the store was surprised. As a reference, I got charged Monday evening (but saw the charge yesterday morning), the phone shipped on Monday night. Status changed to shipped yesterday morning (next day air), but there was no tracking number in my profile, nor I received it via email. I called tmobile about 10 am and with my greatest surprise they told me that the phone was on the truck for delivery. Phone was delivered just before 3pm. I received the tracking email when the phone was already in my hands. Btw, I am in NYC.

Ordered a spigen case (the clear one), should get it from Amazon tonight. Anyone is using it??? I want something that doesn't hide the beauty of this phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] cheapshot789:
Mine is perfect 4/5 date Vietnam and this compared to my old black edge that I return is better in screen quality check out the thread I started on this topic. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3081627

Different screen quality!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] blaccdayz:
I have it. It's clearly not going to help it much with a drop, but it does A) Provide a decent grip, since it's rubber B) And doesn't take away from the phone. C) Will wirelessly charge with the durcell powermats.

I'm at work right now, otherwise I'd take a pic of it for you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] moonyla83:
Thank you so much. I just wish there was something clear and not that bulky that would help in case of a drop. With my S5, I never had an issue using the S-view with the Spigen clip, despite dropping the phone many times... Whit this... I feel like there is no real option right now to protect this incredible screen, and that makes me handle the phone like it's made of crystal...

Plus the clear view covers are really bad in color, the gold one is really ugly and matte and takes away the shiny beauty of this phone... And also on Amazon it says they will ship in 1-2 months!!! :eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Tonesav:
Finally got to the free upgrade section of my EE contact and today I ordered a S6 edge platinum gold 64gb. The rep had no idea on delivery date but promised within next 30 days . Fingers crossed for a fast delivery
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] flamingoezz:
which clear spigen? there are two.

I have the liquid crystal, but no phone yet to put in it. It is SUPER thin.. I don't think it'll take a drop. the other one looks to have a little more meat on the bone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] moonyla83:
I just checked my order, and it's the crystal clear. So you think I should get a different one??? If so, do you think there is any clear one that would be able to take a drop???

Thanks!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] flamingoezz:
if it is this one and you are looking for protection, you might want to look elsewhere. it is a sharp looking case and very thin -- but not looking like it'll take much impact. there are two other spigens that have a clear back and are a bit bulkier and im sure there are a dozen other brands with something comparable too.

Anyone else that has recieved your device, how do you feel about the highest level brightness on your edge? I'm finding it is nearly twice as dim as my wife's note 4 side by side
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] flamingoezz:
Anyone using a skinomi screen protector?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] anthonyRI:
Received mine yesterday. THIS PHONE IS AMAZING! I have been playing with it for about 12 hours now. It is defiantly brighter than my S5. Go into settings --> Screen mode --> AMOLED cinema.

Also turn your brightness to the highest settings... My phone is extremely bright

Also, I am not sure if people received defective phones but my battery is better than my S5's.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] shmogt:
In Canada the Gold version doesn't come out at all until April 30th and only to Rogers. However an employee told me Rogers is the only one who can market it, but it will eventually come to all carriers around the same time. The edge is all sold out where live and I have to wait until at least May to get anything, but which is better the black or gold? I have heard the gold shows every single fingerprint while the black one doesn't?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] k186:
I am. It's like the same material as clear bras on cars. I like it, except I took it off and reapplied it a few too many times, now one of the corners won't stick. Did you have a question about it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] cledee:
The gold is the better looking device, but it does show more fingerprints on it. But I am glad I waited and got the gold instead of the black.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] hazy4days:
So can i call customer service and exchange my black edge for a gold one? That gold edge looks real nice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] moonyla83:
I tried the black and the white in store, nothing spectacular. The gold is GORGEOUS!!! I used it for a day without case, and it is a firngerprint catcher!!! But yesterday I cleaned it up, put a back protector and a Spigen crystal clear case and it looks perfect, and still very skinny!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] cledee:
putting a case on this phone is a crime, though (especially the gold platinum). why wouldn't you want to show off this beauty to everyone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] shmogt:
My plan was to put a clear case back and aluminum side case on it to keep the looks as stock as possible which any color I get. I saw the black and held it etc and the white too, both were nice. However pics of the gold seems really nice. I really wanted the green, but the Samsung guy told me it will never come to Canada, but Avengers ones might. Don't know if I want to wait that long, but I will definitely wait until the gold comes out and compare them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] flamingoezz:
Clear or Matte? I was considering the matte to tame the reflectiveness on the gold model. If you have matte, any comments on that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] k186:
Sorry, I have the clear version so I couldn't tell you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Poser:
Just got my 64gb plat... Damn it's pretty. Screen it's brilliant too. Had to turn it down to 20%ish...amoled cinema.

T-Mobile has amazing customer support!

I've been with T-Mobile for years and My S6 Edge 32GB that I received a week ago is defective. Called Loyalty, they connected me to a higher level of support and boy did they hook me up! Went from a Gold 32GB S6 Edge to a 64GB Gold Edge and support waived the $99.99 up front cost + about $80 in taxes. It's shipping overnight so I should see it Monday or Tuesday.

I got the 128GB Gold Platinum. This thing is amazing. Spigen slim clear case really brings out the original color. No screen protector cuz Gorilla Glass 4, thats why.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] androidoholic:
Just picked up my Gold Platinum 64GB edge today. Previously had a white 64gb S6 (no edge), and the home button was loose. Took it into the store and every single S6 had a loose home button. So went with the edge. The only color they had in stock at 64gb was gold. And damn this thing is shiny LOL.

I think it might be true because the tmo rep made caculations and she said by the 28 latest with overnight shipping she sucks for those with out the s6 edge as for me i was ok with it because i got to keep my black one till the new one comes in :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Thedonj77:
Just got off the phone with a very friendly tmobile rep. He seemed competent. According to him, the Galaxy S6 edge 64 GB is scheduled to ship 10-14 business days from date of purchase due to the device not being currently availavle. If inventory is filled sooner then orders will get shipped earlier and shipped by method the customer chose. So unless Sammy sends the gold soon, those who ordered the gold might not see anything until next week!!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] the guitarist:
hold on a sec. can you actually do that with t-mobile? get a black one for example and exchange it for a gold one when it becomes available?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] bajasur:
Yes... BUT... you have to pay restocking fee and it has to be within 14 days of original purchase
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] the guitarist:
thank you. i guess i have to wait at least a week before i do this just in case the gold one gets even more delayed. any idea how much the restocking fee is?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] cheapshot789:
Unless you get a black one and it has defects like mine then all bets are off and no restocking fee or 14 day period and i think its 20 days for online orders and 14 for in store
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] KevinLa93:
Has anyone's status update yet?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] the guitarist:
so if i ordered a black one online and it didn't have any defects, i can't exchange it with a gold one later?

Have you been charged yet thats one way to confirm mine is still backorder with no charge.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] cheapshot789:
Yes within 20 days and a 50 dollar restocking fee its just a buyers remorse return

Damn it guys im not sure what to do. So many different answers so dont know if i should preorder now or wait till friday and maybe get lucky and find one in store. Although i was told by 2 stores they had already recieved the black and white 64s but highly doubted any store was getting the gold. :/

I hope the gold ones don't have all the problems all these edges are having with scratched screens and yellow displays
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] bajasur:
I would wait until tomorrow before you make a decision. These devices are supposed launch in store on Friday and therefore need to be delivered tomorrow or Thursday. I confirmed today that people who pre-ordered will receive priority over the in store customers.

That makes me think maybe there won't be very many gold available Friday in store...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] drmclove69:
I'm just the most inpatient person ever and hate waiting. I will probably wait till Thursday afternoon and see if I can find anything if not I hope preordering then would still get me in for a possible ship next week. Thanks for the advice I'll surely go with it.

I'm very very very impatient too and feel your pain! Fingers crossed we hear good news tomorrow

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] cledee:
This is really poor planning on Samsung's part, and T-Mobile should have given a better shipping time line for the gold platinum edition. I found it odd that all the other carriers had a ship date of 4/27 for the gold platinum edition when pre-ordering first opened up. Everyone is excited about this phone and T-Mobile jumped the gun, all we wanted was a clear explanation on when they are actually shipping. This might have swayed me into buying the black one instead, but now that I have waited more than a week for it, I might as well wait until they ship it.

I agree this is a major snafu between Samsung and t mobile. They have got to figure out a way to make these devices avaliable at their so called launch date. Hopefully we are all pleasantly surprised today or tomorrow.

Yup, I couldn't agree more. Samsung announcing a phone that isn't available til a month later I never understand.
