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:
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.

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!

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+.

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.

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.

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!!!

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

I ordered mine on 8/21 around 9pm PST from Verizon 128GB Aurora glow 10+ and just got a shipping label created email.
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.

If I didn't have the White S10+ I might have went with White. It was nice at the time, bored of it now.

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.

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.

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??

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.

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??
