I think you should be more specific on the color.

The person is talking about the mystic bronze and not the thome browne edition.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] marctronixx:
ok so I went to the order page and selected "return".

asked me why - I said it arrived too late.

boom, gotr the 10% to keep ther order. i of course chose this and got the 100 dollars credited back to me with the email confirmation.

so those of you still on the fence, just do it when you get the phone.

worse case if it goes through with the returns process, you can cancel it and not have any issues.

Canadian order placed on September 5th. Black/Gold hinge.

When ordering on samsung site, I can’t recall if the delay was 3-4 or 5-7 weeks as it had just changed when I ordered from one day to the next.

Was never given an ETA with order confirmation email as well as the invoice attached or generating invoice when tracking my order.

4 days later, on September 9th got an email from “customer service team” from samsung saying my fold2 is being made and said to allow 4-5 weeks to be delivered.

My cancel button still shows.

Spoke to a rep not that long ago through online chat on the samsung site, and he said that there are some delays on orders placed after September 3rd and those are “expected” to “ship out” 3-4 weeks from date of order. I triple confirmed that it was from day of order and not release date.

This Saturday coming will be the end of the 3rd week.

So to recap, when placing the order first was 5-7 weeks. Then 4-5 weeks based on the device being made email. And now 3-4 from rep. I personally don’t know which to believe. Just patiently hoping that it comes earlier than expected. Very very patiently waiting lol.😅

Hello crew,

I order mine 9/2 - black with blue hinge.

Did the back trace on fedex and finally saw confirmation that into was sent to fedex and delivery is tomorrow.

Super pumped!

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dominikankuko05:

Also, have you tried the back trace via FedEx with your order number?

Just got a notice from FedEx for delivery on Friday with signature required. But status info still says in process so I'm confused.

Guess samsung takes a while to update, but get ready for Friday, clear your schedule! Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Slomo26:
Thats how it was for my Tab S7. Samsung didnt update as shipped for almost a day after FedEx had it as shipped in their system. So yes I would trust FedEx.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] StormCell:
Black/Gold.

Tracking says sig required delivery Friday. Samsung still says In Process.

Gold/silver came yesterday
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] cruckus:
Ordered mine October 1st. Got shipped today and should be here tomorrow by 4:30pm. Got the black and gold build.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
Yep, I would have thought it was the bronze that went there first.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrius777:
Is that directly from Samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] AhsanU:
Yep. That's what it shows on their order page. I think they may have expected an excessive amount of bronze orders so maybe they didn't make many black ones? Either way, I'm glad I snagged a bronze one before it too is delayed.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Spud1:
ouch, thats a long wait for black!

Both still available and shipping September 14th for delivery on the 15th in the UK. Got a black one on order last night before the 5% topcashback discount expired :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] lawtq:
Yep I got that 5 percent too. And the 10 percent off with the great info from another thread in here, and 600 off for the dry s20 ultra. This will probably be with me a couple of years. If the fold 3 ain't that much an upgrade. Can't see myself going back to bog standard phones. This is getting too expensive ffs
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
They may have made more bronze thinking that would be the better selling phone and misjudged the demand for black.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] invisiblesense:
Ordered the bronze version with blue hinge on 7 September 12:00am from Samsung (UK).

I initially ordered the all bronze version on 1 September (scheduled for delivery on 15 Sept). I really wanted to customise the hinge but wasn't prepared to wait 5 weeks. However, over the past few days I stated thinking I would definitely regret not customising the hinge so decided to cancel the first order and go for blue hinge. Now I have a 5 weeks wait!

I had a play with both black & bronze colour versions at the Samsung store. Bronze looked really nice, clean with no fingerprints. I was amazed at how tough and sturdy the Fold2 felt in hand.

I'm still very annoyed about 256gb storage limit. It's just not enough. Every year Samsung makes these strange decisions, it's so p*** taking.

AT&T - Mystic Bronze - Ordered September 4th in-AT&T store.

Estimated Ship Date 9/17 - Order still just says processing.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] lynseyw:
I ordered the Verizon Black. I got the $150 first responders discount. I decided to take the risk and try to cancel and say it would take too long. YES, it gave me the offer to keep the order and save $100!!! YAY. That was a nail biter as I really didn't want to cancel it. I also got the watch bundle. I already have a Galaxy watch 3, so plan on selling it with the earbuds. I just couldn't pass up such a good deal. I got bot of them for $187 with my First responders discount. Mine still said ships by 18th and expected delivery 21st. Hopefully it comes sooner. Seems like they always do.

---------- Post added at 12:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:02 AM ----------

You can still get the $100 off by starting to cancel and then pick it will arrive too late. I got the $150 first responders discount and I still got the $100 off offer.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! :crying: I wasn't aware of the topcashback discount. lol

Luckily I still used a referral discount of 10% but that extra 5% would have been nice too if they stacked.

I ordered the phone and Aramid case for delivery 15th nice and early. :)

I pre-ordered mine on the September 1st. Mystic Black with Blue Hinge

is it 4-5 weeks from when the order was placed, or 4-5 weeks from when the phone launches?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] desantim:
100% from launch. You'll receive yours end of October early November.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] marctronixx:

I hope so. I thought a few reviewers said they would get the retail version on the 14th.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] lynseyw:
You go to your order details on Samsung.com. There is a cancel item button. Click it once, it will ask you why, click that it will take too long to get it, a prompt will come up and make you the offer of 10% off up to $100 to keep your order. You click the button accept. BAM, $100 off is applied to the order. Your order will stay.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] mhtruth:
does anyone else feel like its bogus that they lowered the trade in value from $650 to $500 trade for a note 10+.... less storage... no 45 watt charging or micro sd card slot (i HATE TRANSFERRING FROM MICRO SD TO PHONE)

.... EITHERWAY... i ordered a black w/ gold hinge... got the "cancel discount" and free UV sanitizer.... this phone better be worth the wait & its weight in gold?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] desantim:
I was miffed on the trade in. The note 20 ultra just kicked off and they got $650 for trade in and just a small amount of time later it drops $150.

I also think it's bs that a $2k flagship phone, the most expensive phone ever released and it didn't come with a bonus of some short. ****, it didn't even come with a freaking case of some kind. No headphones. Phone. Cable. Charger. That is it.

But you know why they did it, because they knew our sorry asses would still pre-order it. Still chomp at the bit for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
Anyone that would pay 2k for the phone would pay that 2k no matter what was in the box so long as the phone was in there, crackheads will still buy the crack whether you throw in the paraphernalia or not and lets face it, we're the tech crackheads in that analogy.

[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] desantim:
No [emoji24] and I can't imagine I wasn't one of the first to submit I got the pre-purchase email and seconds later was hitting submit.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] JSK0703:
I’m not dismissing or defending Samsung for those changes. But from a pure business perspective they’re probably just trying to manage their profit margins and minimize losses. There’s more bleeding edge technology in this device compared to anything else in Samsung’s lineup. That used to be the Notes place. But now the Fold2 is flagship.

Qualcomm cpu is 100mhz faster than Note

First device with the new Qualcomm fastconnect 6900 chip

Improved hinge

Improved foldable glass

120hz display

Larger front display

Improved finish quality

So I suspect Samsung justifies the lack of extras to offset R&D and costs of delivering the changes. Doesn’t make it right but in the business world it’s understandable.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Yeah I was expecting a better trade in for my S20, I will just sell it myself now. But for $450, I'd rather keep it haha

Waiting for the 28th to hurry and come for my order.

Ordered Thome Browne Edition on 09/01/2020
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Yeah.... Truth is, I think it will hurt Samsung. Think of Apple user who wants to switch, they don't have a USB C charger... So now they will have to go out and spend 10-20$ on a fast samsung charger in addition to the 1,000-2,000 they are spending on a phone? They will probably just stick with apple. I think it is a bad plan.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] shollywood:
They would just need a cable, the latest Apple heads are usb c. I think that if someone was considering a switch, the cable wouldn't be the deal breaker, but I agree it wouldn't help the cause. Apple will do it too though.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Yeah may not be a big deal for some, but I feel like people will buy phones thinking they will have it and then have to run to the store to get a charger. Just seems silly to me. But yeah, they all will do it if they see someone else get away with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Samsung makes a lot of money from iPhone sales or lack there of. They made almost a billion dollars for Apple not hitting their purchase target.

It won't hurt Samsung. People switching aren't going to care if it comes with a charger or not if Apple doesn't do it either. They're going to spend 20-30 dollars on a phone case anyway and another 10-20 dollars on a screen protector. So what's another 10-20 dollars going to do.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] invisiblesense:

I think people will care, per say, just more that there's nothing we can do about it. So on the grand scheme of where we are all at now, it'll be screamed about for a few weeks, then go away. yet, the price(s) of the phones will continue to go up....anyway....back to who gets this device first!!!!!
