Oddly, when I completed the original reservation for preorder last week, it showed i would be getting 600 for my Note 9. Then it dropped down to 350. Disappointing. So I went with ordering from VZW and getting 450 trade. I have been a customer there forever, so no big deal. 512MB Black 10+. Was going to go with 5G for when I travel, but I will wait until next year to see if we get it locally.

From what I see the $600 trade in is only on the note 10+ in 256gb configuration. Any of the others have a lower trade in value.

I was trying to order the 512. That would make no sense. I went back again and tried with the 256. Still only 300 trade. For a 512 Note 9. More bait and switch from Samsung. This is typical for them at release time.

let me guess you went with the verizon branded note 10 and not the unlocked model? The trade is still $600 if you opt for the unlocked model just not the carrier ones because I assume Samsung makes more money on the unlocked? idk but thats why I go with the unlocked model and of course nice perks not being tied to verizon as well!

I ordered an Unlocked Aura Glow 256gb from Samsung on Aug 7. It says expected delivery August 23 - but I'm crossing my fingers for an earlier delivery. I think they sent out the Note 7 almost a week early - but even a couple of days would be awesome. This is the first time I've ordered the unlocked version - so I hope that doesn't mean they'll be shipping those last.

It's still $600 trade in for your note 9 if you are selecting the unlocked version of the note 10+ with 256gb.

Ordered Note 10+ through TMobile today, Aura Glow.

Never making the mistake of ordering an Exynos phone again, Snapdragon all the way.

Gonna keep my current OP7 Pro as back up. If I miss the refresh rate too much I'll just sell the note and wait for the RoG Phone 2 I guess. Was considering an Xperia One but subpar point and shoot camera and fingerprint scanner put me off.

Ordered the day mentioned from bestbuy email. Will give up my at&t note 9 for note 10+ 512g aura black. Will be getting $600 off as well. Seems to be a better deal at bestbuy vs at&t store. $22 per month at that. Expected on the 23rd.

While I know everyone's current ship date is the 23rd I'm following this thread in case shipments start going out early.
My delivery date is the 23rd. So it will ship from VZW on or before the 22nd (next day air delivery).

I got the 5G version for the VZW upgrade price. Then I will sell my Note 9 on swappa...looks like they are selling for $450 or so now.

Samsung.com....$600 trade for my note 9,$200 Samsung gift card, unlocked note 10+,256gb(I have a 512sd card) aura blue color...was really hoping for a green color option?. Not a fan of the gold hue on the aura glow. Also happy they released the best buy/samsung exclusive color at launch this year and not 2-3 months later(really annoying)

In for a 256gb Aura Glow Note 10+ on ATT. Ran through the pre-order wizard multiple times to try and get the most value for the price. Ended up with the "Lifestyle and Entertainment Kit" and the "Speed and Convenience Kit". Can sell the Galaxy Gear Sport for $150 easily to make it Galaxy Buds, Wireless charging portable battery, and dual wireless charging dock for $50. Tried going with the ATT BOGO offer, but even with the shared 3GB data plans came out to $230/mo minimum. Going with the single phone got me the unlimited plan '&more premium' for $96/mo. I'd say that's a nice deal.

I pre-ordered the Aura glow 256GB model directly from Samsung website delivery date shows the 23rd but if previous pre-order are any indication we should receive the phone on the 21st i have always gotten my pre-ordera 2days early from Samsung.

I just used my wife's iPhone XS Max, and now I'm having second thoughts about my preorder.

Not that I want an iPhone, but I don't know if I could be happy with a 60Hz panel. The OnePlus 7 Pro has really spoiled me wiht a 90Hz refresh rate. I don't know how people can say it doesn't make a difference when it very clearly does. Maybe next year Samsung will release a 90Hz or 120Hz S11 or Note 11.

I hope you do know that 90Hz is only on the phone screen. Has no effect on apps or games so i find that 90Hz **** lame as hell atleast the way it is now. If in the future everything is able to take advantage of it then yeah 100% worth it.
