I always select to have my phone delivery to my office. Even If I have to work from on Monday I would change my day to come into the office. Remember you can always go to pick it up and you don't have to go to your workplace anyways.

I had the G6 for a week. It's a nice phone, but I decided to get the S8 for one single reason MIMO. It's the only compatible phone. I was in loved with the G6 until I saw the specs of the S8 hopefully touchwiz has improved. I used Galaxy S2 back in the day and I haven't used a Samsung phone since.

Based on the Get ready text that we got from T-Mobile on Thursday afternoon, I think the majority will ship tonight overnight and deliver Wednesday. That text said they would ship by the 18th.

Has anyone thought of changing the name of their package? Maybe I'm the only one that thinks of this stuff. I was thinking of changing the name of mine to "Live cockroaches", if I worked at UPS and saw that I'd want to get it on it's way ASAP.

You sure picked an excellent "First Edge Display Device" to go with... You went S8+ Orchid Gray, correct?? Same here... I think you will be quite pleased with the VR Enhancement from Note 4 to S8+... I agree as well, the VR platform, although almost seemingly gimmicky at first (prior to trying it myself - with my own unit), I was almost instantly hooked... There is something that is just so awesome about the complete immersion from everything to wilderness education, to jumpscares, to skydiving, racing, underwater exploring, and on and on and on... It is an excellent platform that is just BARELY getting started, that I am eager to explore in the advancements to come (the many, I am sure)... I am quite baffled how some folks don't seem intrigued with VR more, particularly those self-proclaimed techies out there... I know a few, that say that just can't get into it, and I just can't figure it out... Bad eyesight maybe?? Well, this 6.2" WQHD+ SuperAMOLED should fit the bill nicely...

With mine I was charged back on 4.13 with money removed from available balance but as of this afternoon it was still pending. I sent a message to my bank to make sure they let it go through since it is definitely authorized. Could be the holiday weekend for the pending still reason. Funds were available for it no problem.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] dirquist:
The only reason I never got the S7e or prior is because I am pretty hooked on the Spen. But after losing out on my Note 7 the gap is just too large for me to wait for the Note 8 and of course I was in love at first sight with the S8 and couldn't resist. That stretched display real estate is kinda what I always wanted in a phone and wondered why it never came.

Probably not the right space for this but have you tried a proper room scale vr setup like the vive or oculous with their new version of room scale. It really takes things to an all new level. Once you find yourself actually ducking behind things and jumping around to dodge things you will be even more hooked. The other day after ducking for cover behind a desk when I went to get up I actually tried helping myself up by putting my hand on the table top lol. My 6 year old boy fell off a building top after walking a plank and when he hit the ground for whatever reason his brain caused in to drop (rater hard and sudden) to his knees at impact. Luckily he just started cracking up but ya, its crazy cool. I had been out of the gaming PC market for a good while but after trying the Vive at my buddies house I started saving that day and about 5 months later I have a bad ass PC and a Vive. Cant wait to see where this all goes, like you said, tip of the iceberg.

The driving games are mind blowing btw. You feel like your really in a car and can actually get out and walk all the way around your can. You need at least a rig like mine though ;)

Did anyone order through samsung.com??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] siggystyle:
Touchwiz is there, more of the "GraceUI" from the Note7 days, but it is much lighter in my opinion... Still there, but more useful/functional options too... I think I would prefer the current vs. stock Android as of right now... (only if it doesn't debilitate over time tho, of course, and my Note 7 never showed any sign of that - while I had it anyway)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] blaine07:

Coo thanks same here just wanted to make sure it wasn't me. I got same thing
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] dirquist:
Just checked my Chase account. But some things I paid for even before on the 14th are still listed as pending. Since the 14th was a Friday it is typical that it wont change status until at least one business day has past. Today, Monday is the first business day and if they consider this a holiday then tomorrow will be. So I figure either tomorrow or Wednesday it will change from pending. But that is Chase.

Pretty sure thats only on delivery or exception.

Highly highly highly unlikely. Probably just issued as an OTA. I doubt they are holding phones up for this.

I've been staring at the below message everytime I bring up the UPS shipping page - no changes so far. So maybe Wed/Thur at this point?

"A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] se1000:
Yeah I have no clue, but all I'm saying is, it'd be funny
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] truckerdewd:
I seriously doubt that. That is an OTA update that will more than likely get downloaded once the device is powered on and connected to the network. Some people have already received their phones.

I still think the majority will ship overnight tonight and start arriving tomorrow afternoon /evening.

Samsung can issue patches via it's own update service bypassing carriers easily. Since it's an update to how a hardware button behaves, they don't need to submit it for verification to the carriers.

My experience with UPS is it updates between 6-8pm CST if the package is going to arrive the next day as that is typically the latest they will accept next day air packages to guarantee delivery

Haha yes, I too am S-Pen HOOKED, and it's prob the one thing missing from the S8+ that will make me JUMP! to the Note8, well, that mainly, as improved specs and design will prob help a bit too!! Hoping they bump that battery capacity a bit too tho!! I think the S8+ is gonna do nicely tho... The "bezel-less" display is truly unique right now, as you say, and I too can't believe it took this long to hit the market...

Well, it sounds like your VR setup is a bit above my current standing, but from the sounds of it (and the ideas I have been having),it sounds like it is a natural evolution for those looking to push the boundaries in their own homes... Those are some good ideas and some things I have thought about trying to implement as well... I guess the testimonial is just going to push me that way a bit sooner than later!! ;) It really is so much fun, and Every time I experience something new in VR, it is actually jaw-dropping in some, if not every aspect... I definitely need to improve my gear and setup... Now I can just hear the wife and her opposing arguments for rearranging some things (I do get support from my 5 and a half year old daughter tho - now their generation is gonna have some marvels in the tech world...)

This isn't the same. When the driver picks up at your office, it still has to go the hub and then to the airport.

These phones are in a warehouse very close to the WorldPort so they could get origin scans after 11pm and still have no problem getting delivered the next day.

My last Tmobile phone had an origin scan at 11:42pm in Louisville, arrived next day.

There are always deals. I think I paid $4 for 6 months. The delivery windows though are kind of weak IMHO. If UPS doesn't normally come until 1-5, it's not like you can choose 8am-10am

I agree with this... Hoping that the "first-wavers" are among the majority of tomorrow's deliveries!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ElBeaner:
Luckily my UPS normally delivers before 11am because of where I live (they typically start at their furthest locations and work their way back to their hub).

My current deal doesn't expire until June/July (unfortunately you can't stack these to increase your membership :mad: )

So hopefully they have a deal around that time for me to renew. If it was normally $10-$20 I'd buy it every year just for the Surepost upgrades cause Amazon sends me so much stuff that way. Being able to get free upgrade to UPS ground, and then reroute the package to UPS store by my work FTW
