So when exactly is the release date?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ns_vu:
Friday. So shipping will occur on Thursday.

Some are saying that the stores receive their stock Thursday so we could see shipment tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] spridell:
This has definitely been different than other Pre-orders I had with T-mobile.

In the past when we got those tracking numbers we would have the phones within 24 hours.

I think T-mobile is holding them up to ship out closer to the release date.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] rodnii:
People pay outright for videogame preorders, too, and don't get them early. People didn't simply pay outright for the phone, they knowingly paid outright during the preorder period of a phone that is not officially released yet.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] clorbag:
Got a confirmation today at 150am saying mine was shipped I'll probly see it tomorrow

Video games are like 1/10 the cost and dont become obsolete in 3 months...the sooner the phone gets here the longer we get to experience top of the line tech.

I never expected to get it early till you guys mentoned it lol
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] clorbag:

Well, the stores may have the phone already, they just wouldn't sell it yet.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ns_vu:
Except you don't pay for video games on an installment plan and are not a couple hundred of bucks...

And I'm just agreeing with others. If they took the money and created a label, go ahead and ship out the phone. Now everybody has a tracking number with overnight shipping with no movement. Lol why not use Ground at that point?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Snowleopard1900:
Yep it looks like they might not be shipping early which stinks. I have had a tracking number since 8/13 and they billed my bank account over the weekend. It has been sitting "preparing for shipment" on the UPS website for a few days now. I have never had an item with a UPS tracking number take 3-4 days to be picked up, especially with over night expedited shipping. Politics is wrong. Just ship the phone.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ns_vu:
Lol.. My crack pot theory is that having online orders come the day of release drives incentive in the future to go to T-Mobile stores and purchase the phone, bringing in more customers and potential new sales of other products/lines. There was an article the other day on how T-Mobile opened a lot more stores.

Release a popular phone early and it drives less people to go to physical stores. ?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] cbutters:
This is at the very least... disappointing, T-mobile set a precedence of shipping a week early on all their devices, so everyones expectations were dialed into that. Even ATT people sometimes preorder with T-mobile just to get it early. If T-mobile was going to start doing something differently, they really should have let us know. (of course nobody would believe them when this plays out:

Tmo: "Hey guys! Really! We aren't going to ship until the day it is launched! For reals guys!"

Us: "I saw them wink, we will really have it a week early"

Tmo: "No really guys this time its coming the day it launches."

Us: "Oh yeah... I gotcha... ;) Gotta keep it a secret from all those Sprint customers "

Tmo: "Umm, yeah, so you should have your device by the 19th"

Us: "I know you HAVE to say that... I'll expect it a week before. thanks ;) :D :D ;) "
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Rx8Driver:
I guess this time they feel like a free 256gb sd or fitbit is incentive enough to preorder...i DIDN'T preorder so i won't get those when i walk in the store on Friday to get one :/
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] stillbrad:
I'm just freakin pissed. I know people say I shouldn't be because we knew the estimated ship dates, but this is my 3rd pre order and I've come to expect early shipping. That's the fun in a tmobile pre order. Instead I've been met with disappointment day after day seeing my ups shipment just sit. I'll never pre order again as it makes no sense if this is going to be the way it is moving forward. This whole thing is ridiculous.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Yellowisbananas:
Preorder has nothing to do with getting the promo just has to be bought between the time frame given

---------- Post added at 08:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 AM ----------

This is my first pre order and my last I rather pickup in store. I like the fact knowing I'll be getting same day as release not possibly
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] apatcas:
I'm just pissed of that some youtube reviewers got the phone, FROM T-MOBILE! and now they're doing drop tests. Essentially they might get an insurance replacement before we get our phones.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] playya:
I truly like ya theory :good:..... Must admit you angry folks are entertaining to say the least. Its a pre-order people and the purpose of that is to make sure you get a phone before the stock runs out. There is no obligation to get you the phone early just past history of such. I pre-ordered so I would not have to sit in the store on launch day for an hour trying to transfer over my info.

Either way enjoy time waiting and carry on with your rants it helps me get through the day....:D
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Yellowisbananas:
Lol super true
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] DrexelDragon:
T-Mobile is royally screwing me.

I leave for vacation on Friday morning so what the heck am I supposed to do if they don't deliver until then?

Gotta admit this thread is A+
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] andyshannon:
I got a feeling we may still see the phones a day or two early, because remember when the first iphones came out and ATT's system would crash on release day because they were trying to activate so many phones on the same day? Now carriers like to get the phones out in a staggered release so they are not trying to activate them all on the same day.

this is why i think the phone may ship today and be in our hands tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] kitten79:
agree. I actually only pre ordered because I was seeing so many people talking about t-mobile always ships early. I wouldn't have bothered to pre order if there were no perks to it! ha ha I could have gone and spent release day at Mall of America and just picked it up there and taken my kids to Nickelodeon for the day!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] susy1990:
Same. Next time I'm just going to the store on that day.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ns_vu:
Eh I'm not angry. Just sorely disappointed in the early release hype. If anything, it rubs me the wrong way to have an overnight shipping label created just so it could sit. I rather take my chances with ground at this point.

Lol it's not a bad theory either..coporations drive more sales and save costs by having people go to physical locations. It's weird how T-Mobile has been notorious for shipping early and now on a major release they are holding phones. An argument could be made that Samsung told them to wait but why would that be? If people are going to return or dislike the phone, they're going to regardless of early release or not.

---------- Post added at 07:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

Lol hey, I leave out of town early Friday afternoon so we're in the same boat. :D
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] msage:
I was thinking this same thing bud. Tmo has been telling us over and over that they wouldn't ship before the 18th but nobody (including me!) believed them at all. BECAUSE of the standing tradition of early releases! But what I'm finding most frustrating is not that we don't have them yet, it is that our tracking info should reflect this delay also! Instead of getting tracking with delivery dates of 8-15 the status should have mentioned "future delivery".

Day before or day of. That's how I see it. UPS doesn't have anything to ship lol.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] susy1990:
I would agree to an in-between like for people who pre-order they hold them at their closest store for them on release day and they get to pick them up that morning. Then they can try to sell me whatever the hell they want at the store as long as I get my phone that day.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] msage:
I'm with you, no way in hell I wanna stress over trying to get in store before they run out and then deal with the shenanigans of the sales guys and all the hassle. Yeah getting it early has been a huge plus and become and expectation but even getting it delivered release day is better than trying to get it in store and risking them having no stock and calling all over town trying to find one and beg for them to hold it.

Don't care what anyone says, Apple has that pretty much on point. Their stock updates pretty well over app so you can just check from your phone periodically or when the shipment arrives, place an order for in store pick up and just skip the line. Geniuses get you out checked out real quick.

I am getting the Note7 because I want to try out a different device, although it may not be a big change from the s7 edge.

I am going to be using it naked, until I decide if I want to keep it, or get the V20 next month or the next Nexus.

The S-pen is the difference maker for this device, but that did not stop me last year from switching put my device to the V10...

Cuase i am a special star unlike you.

But yea i know its the label has been made. But as said when ever they do this. Then ship it within a day or 2.

Was even told by the corporate store that i always go to that they will have phones in store aug 18th.

So shipping my phone aug 17th and my getting it the 18th or 19th isnt unbelieveable.

But we will see. Ill post when i get it.
