Careful what you get. Alot of them don't work.

I got this - https://www.americanultraviolet.com/germicidal-healthcare-solutions/uvc-dosimeter.html

I put my phone in it then the card on top of that. It did absolutely nothing. The in store UV-C LEDs don't work at all.

they trigger regular UV cards, but not UV-C....

so my ring camera went off. I look and I see Fedex man making a delivery. Perfect box size for the fold 2. I run to the door and see the box. Excitement hits, and I look at the box. I see the from and it's some training book I got. The disappointment I had. LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrius777:
Those of you who have seen movement on your orders, what time of the day was it? Is there a cut off time where we should just stop checking our order and wait until tomorrow lol?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Iamluckyyy:
I know...I've been doing a lot of research to try to find the best one. I've seen some where people did experiments with it to see if it actually kill any germs.

Maybe I can just not use the inside screen when I'm out and just use the outside where I can actually wipe and disinfect. Or better yet, not take it out at all and just use my galaxy watch when I'm out. Lol...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] JSK0703:
Finally! My AT&T order updated from “in progress” to “preparing to ship”. Hopefully that means I’ll have a tracking number later this evening.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] razorseal:
Hopefully!

Mine hasn't changed.

What does it show for "estimated shipping date" ??
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] JSK0703:
It shows the delivery by date of September 18th
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] bkdodger:
Tonight it's on [emoji4]
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] razorseal:
Mine just has a "ship by" date -

what a bummer. it's 2 day shipping so if it ships tomorrow, it won't deliver by Satruday which fedex doesn't do, so that means I can't get it until Monday, which I'm going on a work trip to GA for the week, which means I won't get it until next week!!!!! :crying::crying::crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] JSK0703:
I just received the tracking information with an updated delivery date of tomorrow by 8pm. But it’s coming from TX so I’ll be shocked if it shows up. Most likely it’ll get rescheduled for Friday.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] razorseal:
I feel like ordering via first-net screwed me. Like secondary to AT&T users. Should have ordered my wife's with it so if hers came before, I would have claimed it lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] bkdodger:
It will deliver tomorrow most likely [emoji846]... Mine made it from Texas to NY overnight with regular shipping option
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] ROE_HUNTER:
Got it, but too darn busy at work to open it up!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
Has anyone received their phone without getting an update on their order page that said it's shipped?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] desantim:
The bird has landed!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] razorseal:
Sooo... My bill wasn't overdue. But i paid it anyways thinking maybe it was related.

Hour later, status changed to shipped. Unfortunately its 2 day delivery for me (not sure why), so it will be here Friday, not tomorrow like most of you.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
a bill to samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] razorseal:
Att bill. Wasn't due yet, but... Either that or timing makes me think it is lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] MANswers:
my phone just arrived.

I had upnext plan with the fold with att, and i was short of 165 usd for the upgrade to z fold 2, i paid it up, and got the phone delivered today.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
it seems the carrier route or bestbuy has been the way to go to get an early delivery.

figured ordering directly for unlocked and paid in full might put me in that same boat, but guess not.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
My shipped email came in the later afternoon yesterday, it's out on the truck now.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] xavierxxx2p:
Same issue paid in full and ordered sep 1 still no movement says shipping on the week of 18 with eta delivery 21 ..maybe its they send out people the finance phone first
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
I paid in full and didn't order until the 6th, bronze, unlocked, Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Zadobo:
My order says the same thing and I used the samsung financing option.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] xavierxxx2p:
I dont see relation but they did ask for phone number..i just paid balance on verizon even though i purchases unlock, lets see if it works or just coincidence
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
Looks like we have the same exact experience. Let's hope they ship out tomorrow at least
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Yep. On the same boat here, another day of "wtf samsung"
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] desantim:
I don't want to be that guy coming here and mentioning what a freakin amazing phone this is.... but this phone is freaking amazeballs!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] BarryH_GEG:
Mine came. Still moving everything over from my OG Fold via SmartSwitch. Some observations. The bronze is definitely not pink. It's more copper in most light. The OEM cases suck. The Aramid case feels great and is very thin. But the kickstand hump makes the phone wobbly when you lay it down. Also a black half case on a bronze phone is no bueno. The brown leather case is beautiful but chunky. It makes the covered side of the phone noticeably larger than the the uncovered side and it both looks weird and feels weird when you're holding the phone unfolded. Olixar makes a front and back screen protector along with a camera protector. I might try that route. It's such a beautifully made phone it's a shame to cover it up if you can protect it in a natural way.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] xavierxxx2p:
I wanted the leather case,you mind taking pictures with the leather case on
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] androidman0225:
Has anyone ordered from Verizon in the US and received any shipping info? I ordered sept 2 still no shipping info
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] bkdodger:
Hmm these cases have me worried... that said would love to rock it same way...I have Dbrand and Slickwrap skins coming might go that route...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] BarryH_GEG:
I'll start a observations thread once I get moved over. Lots of differences to compare between this and the OG Fold. I watched lots of reviews and looked at lots of pics but it's very different in your hand.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Oh okay. I chatted samsung supports and they said hopefully it will be shipped on Friday. LOL

I guess we'll have to wait over the weekend. I'll never pre-order from samsung store again.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
thats what the rep told me too. My note 20 ultra came early, as did my note 10, and my note 8.

This is the first time, i haven't gotten it early :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] razorseal:
Demand higher than supply?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Vimes14:
Good idea.

Ordered Black and Red, still Processing, although has been charged. My Spigen case may well arrive before the Fold, and that would be okay.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] razorseal:
I really wanted black and blue, but didn't wanna wait a month. Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] blkghost22:
This is the first time my phone didnt ship early..i always got my phone early and for this phone its not shipping out early. they only made 5000 so i would assume its ready to be shipped faster.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] LasersPewPew:
I am hoping they start shipping at least last week of September. But the email I got on the 9th saying up to 4-5 weeks. so most likely First week of October.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] StormCell:
Well, the wait moved to to 5-6 weeks not long after ordering.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] marctronixx:
ill still likely order from samsung unlocked like i have done since the note 8. the 20 ultra 5g i got that 3 days before and i surely expected to get this gem early as i thought not many would order this super expensive phone with the way the economy is now, but boy was i wrong! :p unemployment is at an all time low but cats buying 2K phones like it aint nuthin'.. LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] stestesteste:
Stop justifying it is definitely blush pink,,,,man up

Have you managed to get InTouch with anyone from Samsung to see if we can get free galaxy buds for delays from the experience store , seems like only online orders are receiving these?? Do you have email or phone number to get to speak to someone incharge
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Interesting. It's actually not delayed, we just did not get that early.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] xavierxxx2p:
Yeah,not delayed. Technically they dont supposed to send it out until Friday with eta Monday 21st. We just didn't get lucky of getting it sooner. Definitely last time im buying through samsung ,
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
just logged into my samsung account, and my delivery date got pushed a week out to the 28th..

---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:05 AM ----------

i also see that the unlocked bronze model is marked as "sold out"
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] neovalkyr:
well i finally got mine delivered at 7pm haha but considering it got overnighted from TX to Hawaii in one day that's pretty impressive. loving my phone got the Bronze. Sorry to hear some folks haven't gotten theirs yet but it will be with you soon i'm sure. I did try to order another one just to see if the shipping dates got pushed back for new orders and the black is back ordered till mid oct. while bronze was pushed to the end of sept.

edit: just like the guy above me said i guess the full bronze model is sold out, interesting
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrius777:
I thought the 9/28 date was a glitch in the system for a lot of people. Is anyone's order still showing back ordered for the mystic black?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
yeah i read that, but i hadn't seen that date until just now. mine always stated the 21st up until about 30 minutes ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Anyone knows if the carrier versions are unlocked if paid in full? I'm very tempting to cancel my unlocked and buy a carrier version if mine does not get shipped today.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
got back on with the chat team. they stated that i should be receiving the phone still on or before the 21st. so i'm going to assume ON the 21st since i haven't seen a shipping label created yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] hagalah:
Still shows backordered on me. And even worse, the pending transaction from samsung on my credit card now disappeared. No charge , no pending charge, nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jjjanggo:
nice from hawaii as well(ewa) no movement on order yet but nice to know one day shipping :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
yeah i havne't had a pending charge or anything for a while. my order status just states, "order placed"

---------- Post added at 11:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

my orders status just changed to "In process" now and the cancel button has been removed

if you have haven't noticed i'm smashing the F5 key repeatedly lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] bkdodger:
There you go time to get this puppy to you ...btw they just charged my card this morning after all was received [emoji14]
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Wow nice. My sep 2 order did not yet. What version did you get and what time did you order
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrius777:
Yeah, it sucks. I wish there would at least be some movement with my order. Even if it doesn't say "shipped" at least let me know its not back ordered.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] xavierxxx2p:
Cancel button finally disappeared unlock bronze,order September 1 paid in full ..says tracking info but no tracking number yet,but at least i know it should ship today..the new eta says tomorrow not the 21 anymore
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
unlocked bronze paid in full directly from samsung on september 1st at 7pm ET
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Thanks. Seems like it's the bronze day today...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mingy12:
Mine no longer says Backordered and the cancel button is gone. Hopefully this bad boy will get shipped today. Fingers crossed.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jjjanggo:
so what's up if it change to that? does it mean it's about to ship? hopefully you have one day shipping and get it tomorrow instead of waiting over the weekend.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mingy12:
I also ordered the Bronze unlocked. Mine no longer says Backordered and the cancel button is gone. Hopefully this bad boy will get shipped today. Fingers crossed.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
this is what i'm hoping for, i'm hoping it'll changed to shipped shortly and it'll be delivered tomorrow. fingers crossed
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jjjanggo:
got off the phone with the rep she said express is one day or overnight shipping, expedited is 2 days.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
YASSSSSSS, my phone says express lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrius777:
When did you place your order?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] r0ck09:
Mine is now in process finally. Originally stated 28th.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Finally, my black unlocked ordered on Sep 2 changed status.. No more cancel button.

But I don't think it's shipping today as there's no Fedex tracking update.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mingy12:
Placed the order on Sept 2nd at midnight.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrius777:
The "back ordered" went away on my order. Also instead of saying "ship the week of the 18th" it now says "ships by 9/18". How long after the cancel option went away did you all receive a tracking number?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Same here. I believe we already missed the shipping window today, it will be shipped tomorrow. They shipped out a bunch of gold today.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mingy12:
Just got tracking info in the FedEx app. It says delivery will be tomorrow. I am way too excited now
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
jealous, mine is still in the in process stage.. and i ordered sep 1st too :crying:
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mingy12:
Have you checked the FedEx app? On the Samsung site it is still showing In Process.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
unfortunately fedex wont let me register for delivery manager. it just keeps saying unable to perform this at this time.

---------- Post added at 02:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ----------

i've actually been trying to sign up for a couple years now.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Congrats. Is yours bronze? It seems we don't have label created for black yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] scrumptyous:
Do a reverse lookup via the FedEx site https://www.fedex.com/en-us/tracking.html

Track by reference. Put your order number in the reference number change the country to United States add your zip and clear out the ship date. Click on track and you should be able to see if you have a tracking number with FedEx.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] chuynh1109:
well look at that! you learn something new everyday.

looks like delivery by tomorrow 8pm

Any news mate? Not heard a whisper from EE myself.

Frustrating

.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nintendolinky:
Nothing at all mate. EE don’t have the phones, when they do they’ll send them out.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Never mind. Mine is shipped, showed up on FedEx app.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jjjanggo:
YESSSSS SIRR!!!!!!!!!! shipping created as well and i guess rep didnt BS me after all about the express being a priority overnight! but yeah should be here in 24 hours wooop wooop!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] StormCell:
Seems like no one here ordered custom.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Darrius777:
Thank you so much. Now I can finally quit stressing about this phone lol. Now the only question is do I take off work tomorrow to make sure someone is home to sign for the package.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
There's a separate thread for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] StormCell:
Yeah, I started it. Kinda DOA.

Finally my Cancel Button disappeared on both my order for the fold and S7+. I did a reverse look up on Fedex and see a label created, but no email from Samsung yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] xavierxxx2p:
Dude your a hero, confirm friday by 8pm and as i was checking with your method got a text from samsung confirming shipping
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] arielgon:
Yeah - Received my tracking number from Samsung Delivery tomorrow!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] ROE_HUNTER:

Just got an email from samsung saying my order has been delayed and won't ship until the 25th. I ordered mystic black.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] destardi001:
Has anyone had any success in getting a full case? Not just the back? I bought the Aramid...but only to get me buy. It has nothing around the front screen...and the kickstand is flimsy/cheap as heck.

I'm really annoyed Samsung didn't ship with a full case or made one available.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
Are you in the US? I'd definitely cancel the order and get a carrier version or from bestbuy
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] one028:
I received the shipping delayed email from samsung...damn
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] marctronixx:
doubt you will have to wait until the 25th. that's just a placeholder. we all were kinda bummed about the 28th but as you can see all of us on the "28th" bandwagon got our labels and shipping notifications today, so maybe tomorrow or early next week you will get a label.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
I just placed an order for the S7+ and it already shipped lol. Took a few hours and I have a tracking number if fedex. Went straight to in progress.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] arielgon:
I ordered mine on the 10th and it has said in progress all day. I did the reverse look-up on Fedex and before it found the order, but now it does not.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Yeah I have fedex delivery manager and just got the email saying the label has been created. I guess today was the day they were going to ship. Look forward to it. The only reason I decided to buy it was the trade in value for my S6 was decent.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] arielgon:
Well if it does not get delivered tomorrow, it will allow me to focus on the Fold. I got as well because of the rebate.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] ROE_HUNTER:
Hate to hear that about the Aramid case, was looking forward to it. But I want a kickstand and its the only option.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] jackie099:
FedEx was down for sometime today... Look it up again
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
eah, mine looks like it will be here Monday. But the fold will be plenty of a distraction. I also hot they keyboard and cover but that is back ordered until mid Oct.... so that sucks

OFF topic - i want the s7+ but i want the 5g version and 512gb. still waiting for that from sammy...
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] StormCell:
Why would anyone want an S7+? ?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
Lots of uses. If you take a lot of notes at work (or if you are in school), if you like to enjoy Xbox Game Pass beta on your tablet on the go (only 100+ xbox games on your tablet). Laptop replacement, especially if your work uses VMWare horizon for desktop. Quick entertainment for my son when he needs it.

Not for everyone though, just depends on if you want to justify the cost with your lifestyle. Most of us use our phones and that is enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] shango22:
Oh you mean tab s7+ lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] joshuadjohnson22:
