Canadian Galaxy s7 edge discussion

[htc fan89]

Hey guys,

I think we need our own thread to discuss about our preorders and future development related to our model.

so, I already preorder mine from Koodo and they are saying it should ship after March 17th. But, I'm hopping i receive it by march 11th. So, Those that made a preorder, what carrier and when will you be getting it?

Pre-order at Authorized Bell dealer. Put $50 deposit and will be in store pickup. Haven't heard any news/update with regards to when I will get my phone. Hoping for March 11 or earlier! How come Koodo shipping March 17th? Really disappointed that only black available for pre-order!

Pre-ordered with Fido. My position in line is 139. Down from 142 a few days ago.

If any Fido insider can shed some info on when it'll arrive for us, that would be greatly appreciated.

Pre-ordered at Samsung store. Unlocked and gold color. They told me black color will be available on Mar 11, ETA for gold and silver is Mar 28.

Pre-ordered my S7 Edge from Telus on their website, had to pay the full 500$ immediately to complete the order .. They sent me a link to a webpage with a link to follow to see where is our order status and it keeps telling that it is in processing and will be ship by march 11 .. And only black color is available for pre-order too from Telus :crying:

Pre-ordered from Rogers on Feb 24th. I'm 676th in line.

Could be a loooong wait. I remember getting a call from Rogers about picking up my pre-ordered Note5 about 9 days after I had walked into a store and bought one already. My guess is that Rogers (and the other carriers) won't start shipping until the 11th, then won't be in any hurry to get them to us pre-orderers.

That being said, a free Gear VR is worth an extra week or so of waiting.

Safe to say the ones sold in Canada will have the Snapdragon 820?

My credit card just got charged the full amount, before there was a hold for that amount and another hold for 0 amount. I might get shipping notification by monday.

Does Koodo ship directly to you? Or to a store?

I pre-ordered from Bell...got a call this morning to verify my details. The tracking system suggests it'll be in the store within 1-3 business days.

Whether or not they'll actually let me have it that soon remains to be seen, but I sure hope so!

Pre-ordered from Rogers on February 23rd, 47th in line. Status still says open. Hopefully I'll have it by the 11th. You just never know with Rogers.

I preordered the S7 Flat from the Samsung Experience Store (Sherway Gardens).
After much thought, I ended up calling them and switching my order to the edge.

I'm kind of nervous about the screen getting scratched though since its so exposed... There isn't that many screen protectors out either on Amazon (CA)

If you get it from the samsung store(not the bestbuy+samsung store) its sim locked but you get an unlock code.

Yes it should be. I pre ordered mine in Samsung store, the staffs told me that it will be unlocked. They did not even ask me which carrier I'm on, so I guess it is unlocked for sure. And they have silver and gold, but these will be available later this month (ETA is Mar 28)

There is probably like only 3-4 locations in all of Canada.
It's pretty cool though, you get a free Gear VR and 128 GB MicroSD card when you pre-order, plus its unlocked if you buy it out.

Yes, it's a retail store like Apple store. Only 4 locations in Canada, luckily one of them is 5 minutes driving from my house.
