8/24 order just came in...but how do they expect me to return my S6??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Corruption Inc:
The 360 camera was in the box with the Note.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] markwebb:
No box: use what your note was shipped in or other. Get the return label from your order confirmation page on Samsung site. I got my note 8 today and already printed label and packed iPhone 7+ in the box.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Moudav730:
Mine all came! Except the promo was for a 128 gb not a 256? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ekerbuddyeker:
Mine arrived. Feels like a bigger s8+. Zzzzz.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Steigerelli:
Hope I get the 256GB too. I thought it was kind of funny that they were offering the 128GB Micro SD since they gave us better presents last year with Note7. I still have mine from last year that I'll be moving from my Note 4 to my new Note 8, but it'll be nice to have another to keep in my laptop as a small easy backup.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
What were you expecting? Haha. You're either an s-pen lover or not.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
CONFIRMED!!!!! (ordered 8/28)

When I refreshed Samsung.com I almost threw my phone across the room.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mutelight:
Mine came in earlier today and while it is somewhat of a sidegrade from my S8+ it feels so much more comfortable in my hand to type on. It is also nice having a portable Netflix HDR viewer to go with the 3 other screens in my place. I am going to go blind!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whmgreen:
First day... Dropped 2.5 ft onto concrete. Sad day! First cracked screen ever in my smartphone career. Samsung should really have shipped the case i ordered with the phone!

Sitting here at my desk watching data transfer from Note 5 to Note 8. For some reason it didn't want to transfer wirelessly, but that's okay. There was an adapter in the box for the USB-C connector and all is well. Next step will be swapping out the SIM card and then wiping the Note 5 --farewell old pal, it's been a good run.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mootarjim:
Same. Just confirmed, and it was still preorder just a couple hours ago. Ordered 8/28, unlocked with Note 7 discount.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] psixichka:
So I got my unlocked version from samsung and tried to activate through sprint with the sim card from my s7edge and they are telling me I need to purchase a new sim because this one isn't compatible :(
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whoismikehockney?:
Nothing yet here

Ordered Sep1st

Midnight black Unlocked

Still on preorder

Card charge still processing

Email says Oct 1st delivery?!

Want it before the 15th!

Patiently waiting seeing u lucky people with your notes back!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] RojasTKD:
This is why I preordered a case, two actually. The CrashGuard case I ordered won't be here till the end of September so I also ordered a case from ebay to hold me over until the RinoShield case arrives.

Cuz I've cracked a 4 day old device in the past, and it was so very SAD!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] texasez:
Someone at Samsung doesn't like me .

I would check again my fellow unlocked guys. On the sammy website. My unlocked that I ordered 8/26 went "confirmed" sometime today so maybe just maybe they will ship soon.

Listed as CONFIRMED within the last hour.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GallardosEggrollShop:
Ordered 8/27 AT&T and T-Mobile Orchird Gray did the Note7 trade in offer on both. Just checked and it looks like they are now both back ordered. They didn't charge my card until today which was weird. Looks like I'm getting mine later than expected.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kawaisa:
Has anyone done a trade-in for samsung before? Do I need anything else aside from the phone in the box and the shipping label? I don't see any paper that I need to put inside of the box when shipping it back.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bigmase01:
Was just going to ask this! Any tips would be appreciated

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] siraloz:
Trading in Your Device

When I ship back to Samsung the device I’m trading in, should I send the charger, case or other accessories with the device?

No – you should only ship the device back to Samsung, and if you no longer need them, discard the other accessories in accordance with your local trash and recycling regulations. No trade in value is offered on anything other than the device, and if you do ship accessories back with the device, those accessories will not be returned.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SCDroid:
Confirmed here also. Ordered on the 29th. Verizon midnight black Version. Former note7 user
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hagalah:
look likes that i am the only one with BACKORDERED status...lucky.

ordered on 8/25 unlock...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidrev71:
I picked up mine today at ups. So far I really like it. Over 6 hours of Sot. Gear 360 is kinda strange and I'm still working on trying to get decent pics and videos. Camera has been pretty good using the optical zoom. The live focus is a little hit and miss. It's also great having an spen again! I've had it all day and it still hasn't sunken in yet. In a weird way I miss my S8+... Well, best wishes to the next wave of owners! You all should be quite happy!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayDean03:
Ordered 29th TMo with N7 promo...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xHoLyx:
Ordered on 8/30

Unlocked Version

w/ Note 7 Promo

Confirmed.

Hope they ship it soon.

If I get it before 15th, I'll be amazed.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] fgr:
Ordered my gray sprint variant on the 24th. Found out I could trade in my S8+ if I wanted to, so had to cancel the order and re-do it (was going to put S8+ on Swappa also. If it sold, great, if not, back to Sammy). This was the 27th.

Sat in pre-order and I got tired of that, so Thurs the 7th I cancelled again and ordered through Sprint. Phone is now shipped, tracking number says Monday delivery.

This Sammy ordeal is ridiculous, I should have just ordered from Sprint in the first place. Sure I'll have to wait for the gifts, but who cares, I have more SD cards and wireless changes than I know what to do with!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] RiffyDivine:
Should I be hopeful since my order now says confirmed and I can't cancel it anymore? Went in this morning to cancel it to just wait for a non carrier one and saw I can't cancel it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GaresTaylan:
Woke up to an interesting surprise this morning.

Scheduled For Early Delivery On:

Friday, 09/08/2017 , By End of Day

Originally Scheduled For Delivery On:

Monday, 09/11/2017 , By End of Day
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Birdsfan:
When and what did you order unlocked or carrier version?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GaresTaylan:
Sorry. Go figure I repeat this in pretty much every post except this one.

Ordered AT&T black @ 6am on 8/24. Samsung shop app showed pre-order the whole time but samsung.com showed me in confirmed since Monday. I was charged over the weekend but saw no movement until last night around 5:00pm est.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whoismikehockney?:
Must be very impatient.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] borijess:
I ordered mine on August 31st at 5 in the morning my order still says pre-order. Has anyone with a date of 31st or later gotten a confirmation? By the way I ordered a unlocked black Note 8
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayDean03:
I think you're going to get a confirmed by the end of today or tomorrow. Seems like a lot of orders are in a line from what I see.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hkbladelawhk:
Soooo! Mine switched to confirmed a day or two ago. Still no tracking though. In either case, the 11th is closer now.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] urmcgwy:
preordered the day of announcement, got it yesterday!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] marcjc:
That's it... I can no longer look at this thread. It's taking its toll on me... (said in jest), but.... I ordered on 8/26, former note 7 user, tmobile black, chose memory and charger, and I see others with same items, same date, etc... and folks with 8/29 order dates are confirmed and getting tracking and I am still at pre-order. I called Samsung twice over the past few days, I don't want to be the complainer, but this is not a very smooth order of deliveries based on order dates. I know there are a lot of variables, but seeing folks with same choices I made is driving me mad! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nuclearrage:
-ordered 8/24 in the am

-unlocked us black

-paid in full personal cc

-note 7 promo

and........ now I am getting kinda pissed , Samsung will not respond to my emails , so I will be calling them today. I love XDA cause it gives me the proof to take to Samsung that people who , A. ordered after me , B. didn't have the note 7 promo and C. ordered from carriers still got their phones before me , or at the least got confirmation. Kinda ****ty cause email says 11th and if I don't have shipping by the end of the day , it will not make it on time. What makes it worse are the reports that some are getting a "backordered" status. Add that I paid extra for next day , and its worthless when people who didn't still got their phone first. If I didn't really need the unlocked carrier part , I would have already canceled.Yet I am with ATT and looking to goto Verizon in the near future.

On a positive side , thanks to all who got thiers and posted pictures , I love all the info I can get on the phone. Cool that its a good possibility to get 256gb card instead of 128.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayDean03:
If they aren't answering emails, then I'd hit that cancel button. Hop on Vzw and move on from there.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jason504:
I ordered mine from att and got it yesterday. I ordered it on the 26th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ggrant3876:
I ordered mine on the 30th and it changed from pre order to confirmed this morning but no email from Samsung yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jason504:
Actually I was wrong I checked I ordered mine on the 1st and received it on the 7th. Way to go ATT. I was with Tmoblie when I ordered my note 7 and it was nothing but problems. I did not receive until the day after the release date. I have been having problems with Tmoblie service and crap so I switched to ATT so far so good.

Citi cards offer 120 day protection (90 in NY) on damage and theft...

While my phone and charger are confirmed it states my SD card is still pre-ordered.

My original email stated shipping on the 11th so I can't be upset, only impatient...

But I'm also in Florida so I have other things to worry about at the moment.

So after jumping through hoops with UPS I was able to pick up the phone from their customer center. However, I received no info on sending back my phone for the Note7 tradein. Has anyone else experienced this?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] GallardosEggrollShop:
Lol, I'm right there with you buddy. I mean it's no big deal I was expecting to have it by at least the official release date but I know I'm gonna get one eventually so it's okay. This is gonna be one hell of a month though. I'm gonna be getting the iPhone 8 as soon as pre-orders pop up for my work phone and I'll have to go through this whole process again with Apple hahaha. I'm a glutton for punishment I suppose. :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nuclearrage:
look a couple pages back in this thread. All you have to do is wrap it good and send it back , just the phone. No accessories or screen savers cases ect.. Also some have suggested to make a quick video of the phone power up and working in good condition with the serial number off the about phone section. This way youhave proof that your phone meets the requirements for trade in. Don't forget to factory reset it and get your sim card out.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] QuantumPSI:
Still waiting on my shipping confirmation as well. My order simply says "confirmed" on the Samsung website.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] markwebb:

Charger/SD Card

Went confirmed yesterday morning, hold showed up on credit card. Over 24 hours later same position not tracking no email still showing as a pre-auth hold on my credit card ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nuclearrage:
2 unanswered emails to order support , then I sat on hold for an hour and a half to have my call dumped. Finally got a live chat session , poor rep had no answer other than my order will process soon , that he/she could see my order still in the system. Said I should get it by Monday . I was quite nice with the person , but did state that lots of people have the phone and I have nothing, so I guess I will wait , but I am ready to send my accessories back to amazon and just say screw it. Samsung isn't the only phone maker out there , and even tho I really want the phone , I just don't get the whole problem they have. Maybe I am being childish , maybe not . It was a simple thing for Samsung to fix/avoid. Don't tell me that I wil be the first to have the phone and then not follow thru , or don't offer preorder. My email says received on the 11th , but if I don't have shipping info or charge on my card by end of today , it wont get here when they said it would , much less early , or "first" as they have told me. The poor chat rep understandably couldn't answer the questions of why someone who ordered later than I did , had the phone already. Couldn't answer when I asked why it is going to be late , which again isn't that persons fault. Now I am trying to find a good contact for a complaint at Samsung , I will wait as best I can till Monday night , but after that , I will be raising hell.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] urmcgwy:
There's a prepaid FedEx label you can get from the Samsung website for the Note 7 deal. Just ship it back in any box.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whoismikehockney?:
Yea I'm going to be patient. Ima wait and see what happens till the 15th of September. Wish I had my Note8 early like other people but whatever. I'm not going to complain after I got almost more than half off the note8 and is unlocked and paid for already. Just going to be patient till the 15th. Then I'll start wondering.

I know we Floridians have much greater things to concern ourselves with, and am keeping things in perspective and praying hard for all, but come on.....I live 15 minutes from their hub and it was on the truck with clear blue skies all day yesterday and today. They called their local drivers back in with 3 days before storm impact. They couldn't have delivered it while I was home putting shutters up???

I was soooo looking forward to riding out storm while putting my new AT&T black Note 8 through its paces.

Using s8+, but trading in iPhone 6s ordered through note 7 deal on 8/24.

Oh well, good luck neighbors!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] cybrwulf:

How were you able to do that? I wanted to get mine picked up because they were not allowing for delivery due to the impending hurricane here in Florida and the phone arrived in the early AM to my center, but they were like, “sorry, your shipper does not allow for you to pick up at the center.”
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Dang you ordered 8/29 and have shipping?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] drmacrofish:
Lol, mine is waiting right there with yours brother. So frustrating. Even worse was that I had THREE other packages that came through the same centers on UPS on Thursday that did get delivered to me (same day I was supposed to get my Note). I think the UPS guys just wanted a few Note 8s to play with over the long weekend.

Glad this storm keeps moving westward though. Needs to keep going that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jselden:
I hassled UPS. They did not deliver within their range so I missed the delivery. I didn't want to wait another few days as I work on the road. So I spoke with a manager and told them it was unacceptable and she arranged for me to pick up that evening at the customer center instead of the local UPS store.
