I agree also with this ---> "If I had to guess from my previous experiences they didn't make a set date because they don't want to miss it. They will probably start shipping tomorrow/Monday but do not know how many people will get their orders fulfilled yet so they are just giving a vague answer to protect from having angry customers. This happens sometimes with smaller companies. "

:confused:This is whats making people worried. There not giving us a date because they know they didnt make enough and alot will be backordered or late.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] mrponx:
Thanks. I'm so jealous :crying:

True, they should've handled it better
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Exactly, and it is a valid concern. The point of what I said is it is just premature at this point. Fast forward to next week and if it is not shipped then it is more than a concern it is a problem. I'm just saying let's relax and enjoy your weekend and then we will see if this is a failure or success. It could be that we all have our phones this time next week and all this worry would have been for nothing :)

If not hopefully they will give us some credits or something to make up for their derp

At least one store here in Sweden already has the 10 in stock, but they are not allowed to start selling it before the 4th of may. Other retailers are claiming stock that day so that is probably the release date.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] IppeZiepe:
My order status just changed from 'end of April' to 'first batch arriving start of week 18' for a Glacier Silver. I don't know if my 10 is in the first batch, but we'll see. (Ordered it at http://www.gsmwijzer.nl/)
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] geeMc:
I ordered at www.coolblue.nl and they just told me that the expected delivery is on May 12th (silver). The grey version is already being shipped though, so yeah :/
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Electronic Punk:
Do they have physical stores or online only?

Anywhere else in Denmark that might have physical stores?

Elgiganten says the 2nd but in store they have no idea when they will get them!

Edit: Ok just spoke to Komplett, I would be able to do order and pick it up on likely the 5th (ships from Norway) from a nearby pick up location.

Would bloody love to know when HTC intend to ship my pre-order from them!

Gone with pick up, payment on pick up so can't do any harm ;)

So 2 devices ordered which will win!
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
I received a very disturbing email from HTC responding to an inquiry I made using the site contact form regarding my ship date. I ordered carbon gray on the 25th. They told me May week 4.

So I may be calling and complaining today.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
Almost sounds like May 4th.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
They must have a lot of devices ordered. I wonder where I stack up since I ordered the 16th
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
If this is all true there gonna have alot of angry customers lol
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
Yeah hard to guess based on what's been reported already.

I can quote someone who ordered after me and was told may 12. Almost seems like sales supervisors have the power to prioritize orders...
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ghosttown242:
I ordered on the 13th of April and they said mines will be shipped on the 15th May.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Maybe, it all depends pre-ordering a device 13 days after the announcement will usually land you on backorder no matter which manufacturer you chose. Apple, Samsung etc. But those who ordered early better not have a delay lol or they will for sure have pissed off customers.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
Idk thats not always true. I preordered the G5 two days before it came out and mine shipped the morning it launched and I got it two days later.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ajfink:
I ordered on the 12th, so I definitely would be cheesed with a shipment after next week.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Oh ok, well out of all the pre-ordering I have done I normally have that experience. Keep your fingers and toes crossed!
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] datafoo:
We should play the "Share the last 4 or 5 of your order number and order date" game.

Since order numbers would essentially be the "Que", we can get a little insight potentially into how many orders might have been placed.

I'll start :

April 12th (early PST US)

8638
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
Has anyone ordered from NGP store USA?

They have it listed as buy now, not mentioning anything about preordering.

http://ngpstoreusa.com/product/htc-10-factory-unlocked-gsm

Although there has to be some sort of back order wait curious if it's potentially less than HTC.com
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
whats that ive never heard of that lol
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] datafoo:
Based upon the color choices those don't appear to be US models.

The Gold isn't available in the EU yet.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
They're an amazon seller and on their amazon listing it says in stock and comes with a US warranty. Says delivery between may 2-5

http://www.amazon.com/FACTORY-Unloc...ie=UTF8&qid=1461867654&sr=8-3&keywords=htc+10

although a bit more expensive than the HTC.com offer
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] datafoo:
WOW a $200 markup!

And I'd not trust that listing because NGP as the warehouse doesn't appear to have US versions on their site.

I mean go ahead but that would be too much risk for my portfolio.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Stephen:
I am surprised you even got that amount of information out of them! I cant get anything from HTC at all. I ordered on the 12th at 1pm (GMT) exactly. I actually ordered before I watched the official announcement video. I even had my order submission and confirmation emails by 1:05pm! I would just love to know when I am getting the phone!!!!!
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] datafoo:
The Vive sold 15,000 units in the first 10 minutes.

I wonder how the interest in The 10 is compared to the Vive.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] King p1n:
Oh for **** sake.

Ordered mine 4 days ago, so I must be in the end of may wave.

So much for "Early May".

Would've been nice for them to mention this at check out.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ghosttown242:
$685 on his main website
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Not sure how much we can trust this, I just talked to a chat guy and he said mine was listed as submitted and without a date. I think they are just parroting back what they hear. I hope it is not true.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
Kinda in the same boat. I ordered the 12th then canceled my order because the camera looked horrible at first. Then reordered the 26th again. ***** If my order isnt gonna ship till end of may this is ridiculous. Dont say early may when you preorder then ship 4 weeks later. I really hope this isnt true. Pretty much lying to the customer. Shipping 4 weeks later is not a preorder. Ill cross my fingers though. Hold out some home it comes way before that but if I get a notification saying end of may I may jump out. idk :(
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ghosttown242:
Now that's the reason why I am upset we didn't get a specific date. This going to cause a big uproar.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Electronic Punk:
Yeah, try to show support (even paying more) and order direct and end up having to wait longer, now looking like I get it from a retailer faster.

Not cancelled my order yet tho, still a race to see which arrives first!
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
Im not trying to cause an up roar it generally makes me upset and sad. More makes me upset they tell you a timeframe when you order and it doesnt end up being true. I know its still not credible this is true or not. One thing I will say is Samsung really knocked there launch out of the park, htc seems like its tripping over itself. Idk if I can take watching all these review videos and then waiting almost another month. People can complain about what I'm saying in this post but Just really sad now. big bummer :( :( :(
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
If you ordered the 26th I think there is a good chance you wont get it until the end of May. I thought they said that they would start shipping in early May. Where did they say that all preorders would be fulfilled? I'm honestly wondering, cuz I didn't hear that.

I do agree they could have put on their site "late may" etc... something so simple could save head aches

Thanks!
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Stephen:
Just checked again and again no more information :(
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
This really isnt how you should be treating customers :(

---------- Post added at 02:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 PM ----------

Man why do you need to question every post I have? If they keep saying early may why would you still be talking preorders while you know you cant not fill them all but still list early may. :(:(:(
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Lol I'm not trying to question your every post but you bring up some frustrations that I want to clarify. If you have information I don't I'd like to know ?. I've never heard a manufacturer stop taking preorders just because they are on back order.... Never
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] King p1n:
I think HTC UK must have only one support agent.

Because everytime I go to live chat in the UK it says unavailable but I did get connected to Ella before but she wasnt responding so I clicked out then tried to go back in and it said unavailable again:eek:

Tried US live chat but they said they cant help me since Im in the UK.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
Very curious how he got that chat rep to give him information on a ship date. All the chat reps I've spoke to have no special power and know nothing. When I ask can you tell me when my order will ship they say "we have received your order"
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
Most though do not list the same date on their website the whole entire time when they know they cant hit that date. Its very misleading. According to the website If I preorder today it sounds like Ill get it early may or close but in reality its end of may. Thats just not ethically right. I understand it says starts shipping early may but you shouldnt read that and expect it to ship 3 weeks later. Im sorry Im not that big of a fan of HTC to defend that.

---------- Post added at 03:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------

Yeah they tell me they cant see it or know anything. Ive never had them tell me anything. This is why Ive always never believe what people have been told so far from chat or tele support.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
All those points are valid. If you don't want to wait, cancel and protest their failure. I agree that this is far from my favorite launches. But I've been down this road before so I guess I'm not surprised
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Electronic Punk:
At least when we see the reviews from 'Horse and Hounds', 'Patio Fancier' and 'Second hand tyres Weekly' they might finally be done sending out review units and can start working on their customer ;D

All jokes and seriousness aside, we are drawing on May 6th and despite the silence and mystery from HTC more and more retailers look to be getting stock.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
You know except themselves.... lol :silly:
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Electronic Punk:
On the bright side, if orders have exceeded HTCs own expectations, we should see another flagship next time.

Lots of doom was threatened last year.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Heisenberg420:
Just got off the phone... got no where. I typically have bad luck with phone reps in general lol. She confirmed my order ETA was the 4th week in May.

Well guess the only thing I can do now is stop checking this thread every 10 minutes for new info in the hopes I can keep my sanity between now and then
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
damn. Hmm what to do now. I was deciding between this and the s7 edge.... hmm

---------- Post added at 03:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

Well you know according to all this preorder date talk...People who preorder at Verizon on the 29th wont get their phone till he end of May Early June lol And who knows when sprint or tmobile will get theirs, they dont even have a preorder date...You what will really be saddening and will make me so pissed. If people who preorder verizons htc 10 and get it before we do... Now that would peeve me out of here.

[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] chazall1:
lol now would be a great time to get a cold case of beer, and relax. Your 10 will arrive someday. Maybe this is a trial run for the 2 Nexus phones coming out this year.

Thanks
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
Or maybe wait till the nexus ones at this pace. Rumored for a Summer Launch this year supposedly.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] sodina:
chances of verizon offering gold or red.

none, right?
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
Id say good one of them lol theres a reason only silver and carbon only on htc.com
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] clerkp:
If silver ones aren't shipping for a month I will certainly be canceling. That would be unacceptable on any level.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
And you know verizon preorders will get filled over htc.com orders. So verizon people will get theirs before we do. If tthat happens i wont give htc a dime.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] george241312:
Reps just kept telling me "soon" if not by next week I'll wait for the next flagship as well how can you make people wait so much for this ??? They basically sold something that was not even manufactured yet.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] patstock11:
Same here. Mine will be cancelled. I preordered on the 13th and if verizon gets it b4 me I am definitely cancelling.

I was loyal to htc. Not a carrier. I expect the same

It's now Thursday night. If I don't have some type of shipping email by Wed morning im cancelling.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] ImagioX1:

I don't get the fuss. We were told early May. It isn't May and everyone is losing their minds.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] jcracken:
Cuz a week before is usually when companies start to ship preorders, unless they're doing two day or something. Also because Verizon's goes up for preorder like tomorrow.

lolol the phone i preordered nearly a month ago the day they announced the device still isn't close to shipping but people will be able to order one in a few hours and get it by the time mine ships. great job htc, what a spectacular launch this is. straight up reminds me of the 2012 nexus 7 when google announced the device without saying when it was actually going to release, and by the time they actually started shipping play orders (not even in order that they were placed or location you were in, it was entirely random) it was already in every retail store and you could walk in and buy one (Best Buy, Target, Office Max, etc.)
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] rubi76:
I am actually happy Verizon is selling it soon (although they didn't state when they would ship it..), it means our pre orders are being shipped next week for sure.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] djbutter:
Just because you pre-ordered, doesn't mean that you should expect to receive it before it gets released on carriers. How do you even know it's not even close to being shipped? I get that everyone is excited (I am too), but to get angry at HTC over all this speculation (and it really is only speculation) is ridiculous. HTC opened up pre-orders at launch, and simply stated "early May". None of that has changed. It's not even May yet!

Also, I'd rather wait for my unlocked pre-order than order a carrier-branded and locked phone.

At the end of the day, it's just a phone.

Yet it stinks of dissapointed hopes and dreams of children all over the internet.....
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] JEANRIVERA:

Poor HTC ...

Regarding my german carrier the delivery date of the HTC 10 has just been postpone from week 18 to week 20. That's really really bad for the company as well as all waiting user. My hopes of a comeback with this wonderful device have been destroyed by know.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Galactus:
week beginning 16th of may? :eek:
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Yes exactly. Last information yesterday stated it would be the week beginning 2nd May, but obviously they won't be able to deliver within the upcoming week and postponed ..
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] exocetdj:
To note this is carrier specific and not HTC order specific
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Actually I checked all german shops that already have the device listed and all are referring to week 20 now. This points to a problem of HTC and not one of the carriers and other suppliers.

[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Oh man I'd love to see mine next week as well.

Still got some good that the first pre-orders will ship next week, and the delays are for all orders placed from today onward.

To be honest it's really frustrating reading about people receiving their devices if one still awaits his own. But I'm on the other side happy for all those receiving it faster than me.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] mosincredible:

Saturn Support says, they are allowed to list it with this date but don't jet know when HTC will deliver the devices for further retail. Same with MediaMarkt. Both expect it to arrive until week 20.

[MENTION=2780256]jamezr[/MENTION] if you get to checkout it says "estimated delivery by 05/05/2016". We'll have to see what that really means.

Do it, clearly you want to. It sounds like you do not want to wait. Get the S7 edge and use it for 14 days. If you like it keep it if you don't return it and get the 10. It should be closer to shipping. Or simply keep the 10 on order and pick up the S7 Edge today and you could also cancel if you fall in love with the S7. Chances are your order wont ship in the next 2 weeks because you ordered only 3 days ago.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aknotts415:
i should never have canceled my April 16th order. I was flopping back and forth between the edge and 10. Well Id be buying it on Swappa because I could get it for $630 probly new.
