[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
I'm guessing all of you that got your $150 credit ordered through carriers and then submitted your receipts? Because I ordered unlocked direct from samsung.com and it says my credit won't be delivered until 15 days after delivery of my N10+ (which was delivered on Aug 21st).

Wish I could get my credit early. Wanting to use it towards preorder of the Tab S6.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jesmann:
Anyone get an updates on pre-order Aura Glow 256 unlocked. Was originally Sept 10 now Sept 4. Says Preorder on status again but yesterday said in process.

Ordered a black, 512gb 10+ from Verizon on the 20th. Still waiting for it to move out of processing. :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nwitkin:
I ordered an aura black Galaxy Note 10+ from Sprint. The package arrived yesterday, sealed, but the phone was missing from the package. All the accessories and the return kit were present, though. Has this happened to anyone else?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Wtf lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Venom0642:
Hmm becareful, they better not say they sent to you, cause if so they probably make you pay. Just saying.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mzsquared:
Was the box sealed w/ clear tape? What was the condition of the package?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nwitkin:
The box was sealed with clear tape, and the packaging was undamaged. Sprint says that the phone was stolen after the delivery occurred, but that doesn't really make sense because everything was intact.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] mzsquared:
Inside job? If someone activated it then they could trace IMEI#.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxynote1234:
Anyone else order from Verizon and their order says ship on or around Sept 9?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jesmann:
Well update it shipped this afternoon to be delivered Thursday... Only a week later than the other one.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxynote1234:
Did you order from Samsung.com or Verizon? Assuming it's Verizon based on your avatar
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jesmann:
Samsung.com unlocked
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] NFS855:
Mine was delivered today and am typing on it now. I'm loving the color, feel, and design overall. I'm glad the wait is finally over.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sinclac:
So on 8/16, I canceled my Verizon order because I really wanted the unlocked Aura Blue it said delivery on 9/10 to Boise where I'm moving on the 8th ok I'll wait sent it to my daughters.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Awesome! When did you place your order on Samsung.com for the 256gb Aura Glow Unlocked? I ordered on the 20th with the delivery date of the 10th also, hopefully I hear something soon also.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jesmann:
She ordered on the 14th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Ahh thats still almost a week before I ordered. I'm starting to loose faith in any activity this week or even early next week for that matter.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jesmann:
It said September 4th until yesterday when it updated to shipped so hopefully soon. Unless it ships today for Friday you're still looking at at least Tuesday because it's 2 day shipping going into a 3 day holiday weekend
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
I thought Samsung shipped with next day? It says "expedited shipping" on the website? I forgot about the long weekend....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jesmann:
Both of ours were 2 day FedEx. Her Aura Glow shipped yesterday for tomorrow. My black shipped last Tuesday delivered Thursday.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Good to know, thanks for the info
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] rabernet:
Yes

I did - mine says ship by Sep 10th (Aura Glow Note + 256). I keep hoping it will change to ship sooner.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Maaaaan, Samsung just sent me an email saying part (or all) of my order shipped. Naturally, it was just the power bank (I got the galaxy buds and power bank freebie).

Ugh.

Still 9/10 for the phone. 9/24 for the galaxy buds!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
I think we both we're in the same predicament last year with the Note9 lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Haha I think so too. Last time it was the 512 variant in blue through T-mobile for me. Now it's through Samsung. I can't win!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Haha Yup exactly, 512g in Blue on T-Mobile. Did you go with the Unlocked 256gb Aura Glow also? This is so stressful every year lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Hahaha, yes I did. Next time, tell me what phone you're ordering so I'll get a different one and not wait forever! :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
You ain't lying man. At first I wasn't going to get the 10+ because of the headphone jack loss but when I found how Sammy was giving $600 for my S10+ I said screw the headphone jack lol. That's why it took so long for me to order. I watched the keynote and everything and wasn't really impressed. I then saw the Note10+ in Costco and was like Woooow lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Saaaaame! It looked good but I'm loving my Note9 still so I didn't care to pre-order. But that $600 plus the $150 in Samsung stuff (I'm gonna sell it) plus the Spotify premium saves me $60... That's roughly $810 off the price! Makes it worth the headphone jack loss for sure! ? Better screen, battery, charging, RAM, CPU, etc... Plus in excited for the ultrasonic sensor. Plus the USF 3.0 storage... Good stuff!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
I found someone who worked at AT&T and wanted to unload their S10+ for $625 so I sold my Note9 for $550 and paid only $75 out of pocket for the 10+. The ultrasonic fingerprint sensor works good if you have no screen protector. I tried the WhiteStone Dome and it delayed it or completely made it not work. So I'm skipping Whitestone for the Note10+.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] cavertx:
Yippee...:laugh:

Black 512gb Note 10+ ordered from Verizon on the 20th now due in Friday! Thank God I'm off Friday to be here for Fedex and a long holiday weekend to play with setup. Perfect timing for once.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] andresamador1983:
Pre-ordered on the 22nd and receiving it tomorrow. Orderes note 10 plus aura black from xfinity mobile
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxynote1234:
Got a text from Verizon saying my order was received and I'll get another notification when my order ships. Hopefully soon
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
Well, today I'm celebrating my one week anniversary with my N10+. It's been a magical week full of watching YouTube, Netflix, MLB AtBat, and posting here. We have ridden my motorcycle together. And I can only assume my N10+ was saying "Wheeeeee!!!" the whole time. We've been to the gym together and shared the shower afterwards (big shower, N10+ doesn't even come close to the water). It has been memorable.

In all seriousness, I love this phone more and more. My only complaint is the Aura Glow shows dust and fingerprints so freaking bad. Matter of fact there's a couple specs on it that won't come off, like the dust got etched into the glass. I'm not convinced they weren't there from the factory though. When I pulled it out of the box, there were tiny specs on the back and I thought they all came off, but maybe not. They're nearly invisible, but under just the right lighting conditions you can see them. Frustrating, because I've been dilligent about keeping it clean and not letting anything get between the case and the phone. I really lean towards the specs being there from the factory. You wouldn't see them at all on any other color, but this mirror just shows them and reflects them.

Going to have to put a SlickWraps naked skin on the back, and then just deal with the water mark it will cause with my Ringke case. I think I'm going to do the matte skin, and see what that looks like with the Glow.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] A$hr@j:
After reading about folks getting their phones way earlier than expected delivery, I keep hoping my order gets updated similarly!

Aaargh.. this wait is killing me. I ordered 256 Note 10+ blue on 20th with expected delivery on Sep 10th!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
In the same boat except the color. Ordered on the same date and everything. Funny how YouTube creators have already moved on from the Note10+ and we're still just trying to get our peasant hands on one lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxynote1234:
I ordered mine on 8/21 around 9pm PST from Verizon 128GB Aurora glow 10+ and just got a shipping label created email.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] A$hr@j:
Lucky you! But then again, you ordered from Verizon and I ordered from Samsung directly 'cos I wanted the unlocked version.

I'm guessing Samsung wasn't prepared for so many orders for unlocked version. That's probably the reason for the delay!!

Off-topic: I know I can't change my order now but the other day, I went into Best Buy and they had a White Note 10+. It looked really classy - I just hope that I don't regret choosing the blue color.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
If I didn't have the White S10+ I might have went with White. It was nice at the time, bored of it now.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] NFS855:
I'm sure once you have the blue in hand you won't be disappointed. The last blueish phone I had was the S7e and kind of liked the color but the blue on this one is spectacular.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Galaxynote1234:
My phone is supposed to ship ground. -_- I thought they only ship 2 or 3 day.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
Oh, the coral blue in the S7E was just gorgeous. Even after I bought my S8+, I would pull out the S7E and use it just to look at the color.

And the new Aura Blue is absolutely gorgeous as well. I ordered Glow just for something different, but I drooled over that Blue at Best Buy.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] oneandroidnut:
I may or may not have ordered a white note 10 plus and got my "student" discount...... hurry sept 17th lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
So you ordered ANOTHER N10+?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
In the Samsung Shop app, it still says my phone is back ordered and expected by September 10th, but the "cancel" button is gone. What's that mean, typically? Any possibility it will ship soon??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Hey dude I decided to look into Best Buy and they offer the same $600 credit if you're trading in. I lucked out and found a Unlocked 256gb in Aura Glow at a local Best Buy so I went with it, typing this post on the beauty now. I know I'll loose out on the $200 Samsung store credit, but oh well. I didn't want/need anything on there anyway I'd rather have my new phone 2 weeks earlier and have it for the long holiday weekend over the store credit. Hope yours comes soon buddy.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Hmmm... I looked into BB, but it appeared you had to activate to get the discount (with the unlocked) and T-mobile wasn't even an option (only the other 3). How'd you manage??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
You get $700 if you activate, $600 if not activated (like us being on TMo for example they don't do TMo there) then they put the $600 on a BB gift card and I used that to buy the Note10+. I initially went to a different BB and they had a Black and I was going to settle but they told me there's a Aura Glow at a different BB like 20 miles away so I did the trade in and paperwork there and went and picked up the Glow at the other store.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Weird... Online when I chose Unlocked and "activate later", it showed no discount.

Either way, I'm stuck, since my "cancel" option is gone as of today. I assume that means I'll be getting shipment notification soon though, so I'm hopeful!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Yes I would say that probably means it's going to ship soon. Mine still said in process and I was able to successfully cancel it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
They let you pay it towards the device? The fine print on their website said the credit cannot be used towards the purchase of a Note 10
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Yes I called a few stores today and asked that exact question and they said it's a down payment on the new Note. The fine print reads (to me) just what happened, trade in and it's goes towards the new phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
That would be so frustrating if that was true. I would not want $600 in BB credits and have to pay full price on the phone!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] oneandroidnut:
LOL yes and found another pixel 3 for $310 to trade in lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] netnerd:
you making me depressed.

i should have do my research first before rushing to preorder. i rushed to preorder on Aug 8 and traded in my toy iphone8 from ebay for 235$.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] oneandroidnut:
lol why would I make you depressed???
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
They must've changed it after release. Initially it said it couldn't be paid towards the purchase of the device it was traded in against if buying unlocked.

I kind of wonder what deals go on behind the scenes between merchants and carriers.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
The fine print was written weird though. I remember reading it and it said if you activated a carrier model, you could use the trade in towards the N10+. But if you did NOT activate it in store, then you would just receive the $600 in a gift card and it could not be applied toward the N10+. Maybe it was so confusing, Best Buy doesn't know how to apply it.

---------- Post added at 10:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ----------

LOL. That's awesome. I used the trade in program to my advantage too. Sold my 512GB Note 9 for $600. Used that money to buy a 128GB Note 9 for $400. So that was $200 in my pocket. Then traded in that Note 9 for $600 toward the N10+. So that actually knocked $800 off the cost of my N10+.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Now that's hustling, hats off to you dude. ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Mr. Orange 645:
Why thank you. Hopefully, Samsung continues with these crazy trade in deals on each new device. I mean, we both know the price of new devices will just continue to climb. I gotta hustle everywhere I can to be able to afford them. LOL.

Probably should've bought the 512GB version this year to do the same hustle next year, but I was just tired of black phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kylekrazy:
Effing finally!! Preordered N10+ (Aura Glow) [VZW-- from carrier] on 8/19, no update to order till yesterday. It's finally shipped out with delivery on Wednesday 9/04/2019 by 4:30 pm... which is kinda bull**** seeing as FedEx can get most every package to the destination by 4PM the next day. But, what are you gonna do?? iCan't wait till I get it so I can collect on my $150 Samsung credit. Anyone else see those Aura Glow Galaxy Buds?! SEXY!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jesmann:
Samsung ships 2 Day Air and with the holiday weekend... Sucks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] wepa:
Just got my promo gifts
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
SHIPPED!! Just got notified tonight! Via FedEx. No idea the date yet. Didn't say. Buds AND phone in Aura Glow. :D

Phone originally said by 9/10 (buds said by 9/17). I ordered 8/18 I believe, if it helps anyone out (directly from Samsung).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Good deal buddy! I'm guessing you should have it in hand either Tuesday or Wednesday.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
It says Wednesday by 8pm now! I'm in Illinois and it's coming from Indiana so I'm wondering if it may even be quicker. We'll see! Either way, I'm thrilled! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Good deal. So you were 2 days preordering before me so I might have got it this week also if I didn't cancel. Also I was still able to get the $150 pre-order gift even though I got it from BB last Friday, so I lucked out also.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Wow, you really did luck out! Best of both worlds! So how are you enjoying the Aura Glow color? Is it as beautiful as you hoped?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Man I couldn't find a rugged enough clear case to show it off. I literally only looked at it for 5 mins. The most rugged cases aren't clear. I have a black ArmadilloTek case I'm using for now. Hopefully more options come out that are clear.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
That sucks! I'm not a rugged case guy though. I already have 3 clear cases at my house to see which I prefer (Spigen Hybrid, ESR Mimic with kickstand, Ringke Fusion).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
You'll be good to go then. On average I only drop my phone maybe a few times a year but I still want it protected if it does happen. I also have insurance but still paranoid lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sinclac:
Suppose to get mine on 9-4 got it on 8/29 from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
I do too, but the minimal cases are plenty good enough for flat surfaces (they have the lip to protect the screen). I just dropped my Note9 today, ironically. Thankfully it is all good (trade in would've been gone!), but I've never once cracked a screen in 15+ years of no heavy case! ? Maybe I'm just very lucky, haha.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
The last screen I cracked was my very first smartphone, the HTC EVO way back in 2010/2011. And it was literally a 2' drop off of my couch onto my ceramic tile floor lol
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
Boy that phone was ahead of its time. I owned it too! I was so freaking pumped for the EVO 4G LTE with the built in kickstand...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Hahaha right I got that one too. That was the first two toned backed phone, Pixel might have copied them for their design. I actually bought the original EVO again a few years back just to root and play with and it was sooo slow and laggy it's amazing how far we've come haha
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] hayabusa1300cc:
Is it just me or xda isn't working properly for a few days?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] teegunn:
Preordered a Note 10+ for me and Note 10 for my wife on 8-18. VZ screwed up the order (ordered wrong phones!) so I had to call them and cancel that order and then reorder on 8.20. After 10 hours on the phone, they screwed up my 2nd order too (again, ordered wrong phones and even on the wrong lines), but this time I just said eff it, I am not going through another 5 hours on the phone just to get my preorder done again. They promised me the phones would be here on 8.23. They even charged my CC for the payoff on my two Note 9's, which the card is NOT supposed to be charged until the new phones are delivered.

Long story short, I spent another 6 hours on the phone with them trying to figure out why my CC was charged and why my phones were not delivered and the order has been showing "being processed". They never had a good answer for why my CC was charged and in fact couldn't find where they applied the money that they charged me. Finally after working with Discover, VZ admitted they charged me but still has no good answer where the money went. They said it was applied to my two note 9's, but my two note 9's still show not paid off on my VZ account. To call this a cluster eff is an understatement.

Finally they guaranteed me I would have my phones by september 3rd, which is tomorrow. That is not happening as the order is still "being processed" and I don't even have a tracking number. If I do not receive a tracking number tomorrow, I am going to be forced to get on the phone and scorch some eardrums. This is completely unacceptable to get charged, have my orders completely messed up twice (ordering wrong phones putting them on the wrong lines, plus other mess ups). Do they want to lose a long time customer who has had many lines of service for years?

Obviously I am pissed but have been being patient the last week and a half. I already wasted over 16 hours of my time trying to get answers to why this is happening. Seeing so many other people having got their phones almost 2 weeks ago and here my preorders sit "processing" is beyond frustrating. But I am going to give VZ through tomorrow to at least give me a tracking number and change my orders from "processing" to "shipped". If they are not shipped by the end of tomorrow it will then be time to pull out all the stops. Always had smooth preorders through VZ in the past, this time around has been screwed up so many times by so many different people it seems almost impossible for it all to be innocent mistakes.
