After jealously watching all the yanks get their phones over the last week or so, it's almost launch time for blighty !
So, here's the obligatory delivery thread where we can all optimistically and wildly speculate on our deliveries along with celebrating arrivals.
So I'll kick this off:
Vodafone pre order for Pixel 3 Black 64gb. I ordered on 12th.
So far: Initial order number tracking code wouldn't work on site. Then last night I got another bunch of texts and emails with a new tracking code that shows order confirmed and getting it ready. However one text does state my order will be shipped for launch date , so I'm not getting too excited.
A chat agent did tell me their stock arriving 26th so that's possibly why my status has changed as they have stock and are basically waiting until they are allowed to send it.
I'm going to assume they have plenty of stock as a few days ago they reduced the contract prices by £4 for the pixel 3, which may indicate low pre sales.
So I'm really hoping for a Nov 1st delivery !
Ordered mine on 9th October from the Google store. The original shipping date said 5-6th November but I got an email earlier in the week saying it will be 30-31st October.

That's sounds great, before official UK launch date !
I'm also hoping mine gets shipped a little early, but currently I'd settle for Nov 1st as I have no idea where I am in the Vodafone order queue. I'm also glad Vodafone use DPD for delivery so I'll get a one hour delivery window , which means I can pop home from work to wait for it
Fingers crossed! I don't know who the Google store uses to deliver but I'm hoping it can be left with a neighbor if it comes Tuesday as I'm away.

Also ordered on 12th - Clearly White 64GB from EE. I'm coming from a 2XL - but wanted to return to a smaller form factor. Originally the white models were showing as not shipping until 3 weeks after launch which was a real bummer. However, order tracking now stating 1st November so getting excited now!!

Yes Vodafone told me no white model until a few weeks later but seems that's changed now. Good luck !
Also nice to see that EE actually give you a date as Vodafone don't.
Ordered my upgrade from 3Uk on the 16th, delivery is the 1st.
Bought my current Nexus 5X when Google phones were reasonably priced! I'm on a sim, all you can eat deal, paying £21 a month, so for £99 up front and £48 a month hope it's good! ?
Ordered two Pixel 3 Black 64gb + two Pixel Stands on 9th October from the Google Store.
Delivery date was originally 5th-6th November.
Received email notification on 22nd Oct with a new delivery date of 30th-31st October.
Received email notification on 25th Oct with a new delivery date of 8th-9th November.
Currently considering binning the order and placing it with John Lewis instead.

I've never bought direct from Google since my Nexus 4, when their logistics was exported as useless. They ended up seemingly shipping randomly, with later orders going out before early ones.
A bunch of us from XDA bombarded the then head of Google UK with complaints on his Google + feed and he issued a statement apologising and got it looked at and sorted for us. I still don't trust them.

I've a sneaking suspicion that they just don't "get" logistics, and struggle a little with the concept of a world outside the USA.
I've been buying from them since the Nexus One, and I can't recall a single time the initial launch deliveries ran smoothly.
Talking of non US - wonder what we'll need to do to get call screening to work. Hopefully just change language to US English. Or even better would be a magical module and I'll happily root the phone then.

Yeah man really excited to be honest. I know on paper it's not that big of an upgrade, but the improved screen/camera is enough reason for me. Sure, it sounds like there's a few issues here and there, much like there was with the 2XL last year, but I still loved the phone and getting those sweet updates on the first Monday of every month.

Great news. I'm hoping that mine will ship on 31st, to arrive on 1st. My wife will be at home for delivery, but I'll leave work and pick it up anyway
I cancelled my order with Google and moved it to John Lewis instead, based on their commitment to delivering on the 1st November.
Hopefully things will pan out that way.

Is that directly with Google? I'm happy to wait until Thursday as per my order tracking estimate. I wouldn't expect it to be early, especially as it's being delivered to the store for collection. Only 3 more days with this damn Moto G4 Play with 1GB ram haha!

Not sure if I understand the question correctly?
My original order was via the Google Store and delivery got pulled forward to 30/31st then pushed back to delivery later than when originally ordered.
The John Lewis phones are SIM free and the same as supplied by Google, with the original manufacturer warranty + JL's 2 year guarantee on top. It means any issues / RMAs can go via JL customer service, which is something Google have never been particularly good at IMHO.

Sorry man, I was meaning was your order directly from the google store, which you've now answered! Don't blame you for switching to JL - fingers crossed you get the device on 1st
Google don't seem to have a great track record with stocking phones/logistics in general! Although this year does seem the best so far, providing we do get the phones as expected on UK launch date (1st). That's only just over 3 weeks since the keynote. I remember last year the keynote was October 4th and I didn't actually get my phone delivered until 14th November (sim-free directly from Carphone Warehouse).

No worries.
I've ordered direct from Google on launch most years since the Nexus One, but I've never had despatch dates moved around so much before. It made me twitchy this time around.
I'm not really too bothered about delivery on release day, but I do want solid customer service. JL have been very good to me over the years and have clear channels of communication and escalation.
Here's hoping it works out as planned for the both of us.
And don't forget to buy a case !
I've just ordered my usual, a Spigen clear gel case. Always a good fit, subtle so as not to ruin phones good looks, great corner protection and with slight lip to protect from screen down falls.

Easiest thing would be to call their customer service. However I had good luck with the TF101 getting one when Newegg was selling them at launch and I have faith in them now. I keep checking my Pre-Order and my email as well as the sight for any updates. I've seen them update the Asus tablet page and remove the other tablets and put them back. Unless they wait until the last minute to update the page we may luck out and get it early. Otherwise they can always fallback on the fact that it says ETA and not actual release date.
For what it's worth, since I am a Campus Rep for ASUS, I can tell you all that the company has pretty strong ties with Newegg as that's who we use for our official campus store. If any company gets them on release date my bet would be with Newegg.
Just my two cents

Not wanting to read into it but is 12/8 the actual release date? Since thats the date most retailers had initally before they changed it to the following week or two afterwards. If so then I definitely expect Newegg to have it on the date listed especially since every other retailer has been covering themselves and changed their dates while Newegg hasn't.

my Bestbuy.com order status still says it gets released 12/18. I would love to get that one wrong!
Who was the source in Taiwan. Do we have someone on record as saying that? I know all of the media outlets were stating those dates on the day of the conference but I was never sure of an actual source.
What are they telling you as campus sales rep. When will you have one (or more) in hand?

I was skeptical for the same reason because no source was ever mentioned, no picture of any date was shown, nor was any video of the conference recorded.
My job is not as a sales rep... Just a Campus Rep. I'm supposed to promote the awareness and benefits of the products on campus by holding demo events, Q&A's, and reviewing new products. I'm going to contact my boss to see if I can get some more details.

Thanks that would be great. Sorry that I erroneously added 'sales' into your title. Not sure why I made you a salesman. I think it would help your cause on campus to be able to definitively state when the product is available. Here's to hoping your boss has an answer!

It would really make my weekend if they shipped it out on the 8th!! Anyone know if it is possible to change shipping address on a newegg order? Their customer rep said I couldn't change since the order was "on hold". Will be hard for me to time it right so I can change the shipping address right after they receive it, but before they ship it out...
I forgot to put my office address in there and don't want them to leave it outside my house, or worse yet - take it back to the UPS hub on the day of delivery.

My Best Buy pre-order says the 18th, but I was told I'd have it on the 13th. Maybe that date is for the in store date? Hoping so!
I love Newegg, but I have had some bad experiences with their pre-order stuff. Normally the release date is wrong, it comes later than the real release date, and once I got the incorrect product. I would hope they have gotten better, but when I made my preorder I stuck to Best Buy that had a physical presence so I could return or exchange without a hassle (hopefully) if there is a problem.
However, the official release date is the 19th for the US. There have been a lot of rumors and Asus officials have no been in sync with the information, but this finally seems official.
http://www.ubergizmo.com/2011/11/as...ts-official-release-date-for-8th-of-december/
Nevermind the 8th in the title, this article was updated. So the Best Buy date of the 18th is probably correct because that is when they will ship it. I just hope they have enough stock.

First time doing a pre-order with Newegg personally but I've bought lots of items from them in the past and have always been really good service. Of course service will always differ from one experience to the next. The way I see it is if they do get them on the 8th and ship them then thats a plus. If they get them on the 8th and ship the following week it falls in line with that 12th date that was thrown around with the 18th. And if it's not until the 18th then well it's the same as everyone else. All that matters at this point is when we all recieve the device. Unfortunately the site you linked to doesn't have anymore concrete information than any of the other sites. They reference the launch trailer we all saw as having the date and I watched it again to make sure I didn't miss something and there is no date in that trailer. So again we are all just playing the wait game until these merchants recieve and ship out our devices.

Sent from my Thunderbolt using Tapatalk
yeah i called about a week ago and they told me 18th to 23rd and i asked they clarify what that meant. As in day shipped or day received and the lady said 18th would be earliest day i would have it in my hands and 23rd being the latest. This was at best buy but i should also note it sounded to me like she just read off the computer a generic product shipment statement. No real knowledge when it came to the prime. This was at best buy. For anyone wondering i ordered the 27th champ. 32gb no dock. I wanna know why u think the 13th too before i get my hopes up...
**edit- I figured i should also note for people wondering this was for standard free shipping. i was talking to her about upgrading shipping and once she told me 18th to 23rd i decided to leave it alone.
Just browsing Asus's product site, I noticed that the "preorder" list had been removed (unless I'm looking at the wrong page: http://eee.asus.com/en/eeepad/transformer-prime/features). I went to the "where to buy" tab and looked through some of the sites listed - a couple of places that weren't on the initial preorder list have them up now - J&R as we all know, but also allasus.com and PC Mall. I went ahead and called PC Mall to check on delivery time and the rep told me Dec. 12th. Now, of course, I doubt that is accurate, but it's news at least.
I've had my Prime for a few weeks and have been searching all over for the anyone that has received there TF201-DOCK-CG in CHAMPAGNE Gold.
I have seen post stating they have gotten there Gray docks but not been able to find the CHAMPAGNE.
If you either have received this or if this is still on back order status please provide this information.
thanks in advance
Haven't received it yet but I'm expecting it soon. I pre ordered one from Abes of Maine, and another from ShopBLT. Both are expecting to get a shipment of them on the 27th of this month, which is the best I've heard from ANY place so far. Whichever can send it to me first, I'll cancel the other's order.
Thanks for this input this is the same info I have found.
The only one I have seen online that is even offering this on a pre-order is ShopBLT
http://www.shopblt.com/cgi-bin/shop...110020050010_BLL5657P.shtml&order_id=!ORDERID!
When I spoke to the today they did state that this was the third time that they have had a push from the Manufacturer and this was not a firm data by any means. They also stated that while they have 371 coming in the back order was in the 400 range, but they expected 3% would cancel there order.
I guess I will wait and see
There are so many threads on this topic..and thanks for the misleading title.
I ordered one from shopblt.com back on Dec 23rd with a ship date of January 5th. They wrote a very creepy email stationg the name and address didn't match to the card and the email verification could have been spoofed (I used my Gmail add) since it was a public domain. Then they asked me for a photocopy of my drivers license or a copy of my electric or gas bill to verify the address and name. They also stated this shouldn't be of concern because the information I gave them for the order was equivalent to personal info (essentially saying I might as well give the my social security as well ). I immediately cancelled my order as the ridiculousness of it was over my head. Might just have been me but beware! Seemed too creepy

Gary, if you're reading this thread can you shed some light on the absent champagne dock issue?
I have it (well, had, send it back because of backlight bleeding). At least it is for sale in Holland (bundled with the 32GB Prime).
I pre ordered from Amazon on Nov 22 together with the prime. I have had the prime for weeks now but still haven't gotten the keyboard dock. I received an email from Amazon on Jan 12th saying the dock will be delayed and if I still want the order. I said yes, and nothing since then.

Well, Champagne docks have now been pushed into February. My PCNation order had been 2-5 days since last week and now is 1-2 weeks. Checking ShopBLT site shows they won't be in until Feb. 7.
I've had this on order since mid December. What the hell is going on?

I emailed Abes of Maine after I got a weird email from them that made it look like I had ordered it only yesterday rather than weeks ago. They said it was nothing to worry about, just that it was to say they received a bunch of them and were shipping them out today and tomorrow. They also said to expect it to be delivered before the weekend!!
So, if any of you ordered from Abe's, you might want to email them and ask if anything new is happening.

CG dock still in stock at Newegg. Just ordered with overnight shipping. Charged and processing. Now... To Sell this gray dock lol
My CG Dock order with Tigerdirect (placed Nov 23) changed from "Backordered" to "In Process". They were among the first to deliver the CG tablet, so I assume this means they also received an allotment of CG docks and are starting to fulfill orders.

I wouldn't read that much into it. Just like we got a "backordered" email, it just fills dates and stuff in. I'd expect it to ship by the 15th.

Same email here. I noticed the delivery wording changed from first email. Went from on or before the 17th, to "as early as 17th" hmmmmmmmm......

Yeah, the previous wording made me think we might get them earlier in the week, but now it looks like the 17th is as early as possible.
I guess its just one more reason to look forward to Friday
When i ordered mine today it said they should ship by the 16th.
Five minutes later i got an email saying it was sent to the warehouse for shipping.
I have a feeling some of us will be getting them early.

My order confirmation on the "5th" simply said your order will ship on Feb/16.
No "reminder" emails yet.
Assume it's 2-3 day fedex but don't really know.

I think we all got different notifications based upon the avenue in which we purchased or upgraded. I upgraded through Premier and I'm supposed to get my phone by the 17th and it is supposed to be shipped Fedex overnight. I don't think we can assume what AT&T will do until we start getting shipping notifications and tracking numbers.

Thank you for ordering from AT&T. Your device has been reserved and is expected to be delivered on February 17th. At AT&T, we promise to ship our products in the order in which requests are received*.
I ordered from a store on the 5th. I was the first (and probably only) person to order from them that day, considering people were preparing for the Superbowl. They had to dig around online for the model number. I assume they'll ship on Tuesday, to ensure that it gets to as many people as possible by Friday.

I ordered mine from ATT on Monday at lunch. They couldn't find it in system Sunday.
So, I went back Monday with the ATT SKU #. I told them to ship to store, 'cause I leave for Asia on the 18th and if it's not there by 17th my salesman said it would be held there under my name.
So, here's to hoping the "store" gets their shipments first, and mine gets thrown in with their stuff.
I go to Hong Kong and China regularly so I'm very familiar with the Int'l Note, but didn't want to spend 700+ for one in HK or China with no warranty except thru my friends there that I'd have to ship it back to for service.
Plus, getting it for 300 sans Exynos I figure is an even toss up for the cost savings.
Ive just got an email from Amazon.de saying my order placed at the beginning of this week has been delayed due to bottlenecks in production and may take a further one to two weeks to deliver!
Has anyone else got the same?
..and I should say I ordered white.
it could be that amazon has placed 2 orders with the manufacturer.
when i preordered mine on the 9th of may, it still says delivery on the 30th. i spoke on the phone with amazon.co.uk and they told me that they have delivery of an amount of handsets for the 29th and then a bigger delivery on the 6th of june. So i presume is whoever managed to order one early on gets it a bit sooner, and if the stock for delivery on the 30th is gone, then that is why your's might come a bit later.
Amazon.co.uk website is still offering preorders for delivery on the 30th of both blue and white.

I got a mail from Amazon today that the delivery COULD be delayed by 1 to 2 week.
On the status page it still says delivery on 30.5.
So I hope for the best.
Edit: I pre-ordered the blue one at amazon.de on 24.4

i suppose that is from the german amazon.de? right?
actually here is a note from amazon.co.uk when you visit the page that sells the phone:
Note on Samsung Galaxy SIII Availability:
We have been made aware that there may be a slight delay in the arrival of some Samsung Galaxy SIII stock into the UK. We will keep you informed of any new information as soon as we receive it. All pre-orders will be fulfilled on a first-come first-served basis and we will not charge your credit card until we are ready to ship your order.
lets hope its delivered as expected!!!
I got an email May 10th saying mine will be delivered June, between 4 and 9, no more emails since
I pre-ordered the white one on May 12th on Amazon.de, and haven't gotten the email yet. Spoke with Amazon reps some of them said that this is a "technical error" (that I haven't received the email), others have said that it might be dispatched, but that they "don't want to make any false promises". My status page still says 30.5.
There already was a discussion on this topic in Galaxy S III Pricing, Availability and Pre Order Thread
There are quite a few in the amazon forum reporting that amazon told them upon request (like the chat) that there is a delay of one or two weeks and that the displayed delivery date of the order may not be correct.
I am one of those.
I have read at least one updating the shipping method to the fast one and this caused the delivery date to be updated to about two weeks later.
According to most personal of amazon.de this delay includes anyone who did a preorder.
We'll have to wait until next week to find out if this is true.
What a chaos!!!11Eleven
If I look at the amazon.de page at this moment, you can order the blue and white version for 621,- € with delivery at 31.5

Yes, but this one is not sold by Amazon directly, but by Notebook.de. Amazon still sells at 587 EUR with 1-3 weeks delay.
Does anyone know where I could buy the phone locally in Austria (Vienna)? Saturn doesn't have it on the website, neither does MediaMarkt.
Nope.
It looks like the delay is not restricted to amazon but most or all vendors.
I don't think you'll get lucky with a normal vendor.
Don't expect saturn or mediamarkt to have them any time soon, the austrian ones are always slow on picking up new stuff compared to the german ones.
Maybe there is more luck with a mobile operator, but I did not check on this since I am not interested in buying it with a contract and have it sim-locked (if you are willing, then the offer from orange.at might be a good one).
But hey, it's 'just' supposted to be one or two weeks.
Drink tea, relax and wait (yea I know, it's hard, i'm just trying on that myself)

Yeah I figured I'll tour Orange, T-Mobile, and Drei tomorrow and see if I could get one without contract, though I doubt it. Still waiting for news from Amazon about the definite delay...
I'm gonna wait until the madness does down and stock aplenty so i can get one within a week
Just got another email, delayed to 19 - 26 June
I also got an email from Amazon.de today. I pre-ordered a pebble blue S3 on the 15th of May. It now says that it will be delivered from June, 14th to June, 15th.
So that's another 2 weeks of waiting.
Same here. This is a bit frustrating. Samsung should've addressed this problem earlier, how could they let this slip? After all, this is one of the most anticipated phones of the year.
So, I pre ordered a C6833 from Clove what seems like an eternity ago & they finally have a date of when the handsets will be shipping. According to their site update this morning: First stock confirmed arriving 12th September, for dispatch on the 13th. Its a shame they'll be shipping out on a Friday as you can almost guarantee that means they'll arrive on Monday rather than Saturday.
I'm sure Sony will confirm this launch date later today in Berlin.
Here's the Clove order page with the new info

I phoned Clove earlier & asked about the chances of a Saturday delivery. The guy told me if I'd chosen Royal Mail as the delivery method it would be quite likely. If I'd chosen another courier it would almost definitely be a Monday delivery. I changed it over to royal mail on the phone

Well even if yours arrives on Monday you'll be pleased anyway to have a SmartWatch 2 and a SBH20 FOR FREE!
I have to check here for some offers, because 612 GBP plus 26 GBP (s&h) will result in like 750 euros, which is A LOT.
BUT, official Italian Sony site says the base price for the Z Ultra s 729 euros, so I guess I'll have to think about it, given that here a SW2 would cost 199 euros...
I have a friend going to NY mid September, but even with the exchange at 1.35 it wold cost me more than that...
What to do... What to dooooooooo??
EDIT: now that I've seen samsung and Sony (ironically my S3 writes the two initial "s" as I wrote them ) conferences, I'm more than ever convinced on the ZU.
Other than that, buying the ZU from Clove seems a real deal, but I wanted to ask some of you if they have had previous experiences, as in if I incur in some problems, will they change my device, are they reliable? Do they answer promptly to email (as I'm in Italy, I won't be phoning but emailing instead)?

This is my first purchase from Clove although they have been on my radar for a couple of years now so I can't help you with return issues sorry. I did however email them a few times with nagging questions about when they would be expecting the ZU to arrive etc. TBH they took over a day to respond to my emails. They did respond every time & but it wasn't as quick as I'd of liked. Speaking to them by phone seems to be the best method as they have always been polite, helpful & quick to answer any questions.
It does seem like an excellent deal when comparing the freebies from Clove & the prices other retailers are selling just the handset for...

I bought one white ZU (plus SmartWatch 2 and SBH20, luckily it's written on the receipt so no one could tell me "you weren't in time" ), and a DK30 dock for a total of about 674 GBP, a little more than 800 EUR. According to the Sony official site in Italy, I would have spent a little less than 1K EUR, so that's a real deal for me.
What I don't understand is, as this is a preorder (well, part of it, since the DK30 is in stock right now), why they billed me for the full order right away.
I was under the impression that there were a complex following of security questions, and that the billing would be when the product is actually in stock, but I may have misunderstood that.
Could you confirm that when you go to your account, under your order it says "BACKORDER"?
I thought it meant that they had a product and they don't anymore, but maybe they use it as in "we don't have it", full stop.
Waiting for your confirmation...

Yeah, mine says the same... I ordered a sbh52 before I'd ordered the handset as I knew I was going to get it any way & that says preorder but the handset says backorder.
When I spoke to the guy on the phone the other day he assured me I would receive the smartwatch etc & that mine would be from the first batch as I was one of the first orders (August 9th)

Ok, thanks, you really relieved me.
I assume that either they have a lot of handsets on the way, or they didn't have many orders until now.
Anyway, I don't care as long as I have my handset for monday/thursday (I chose FedEx, they're usually quick...)...

I ordered the ZU from Clove ages ago and took payment then so nothing to worry about.
Eagerly awaiting its arrival. What colour did you guys go for? I went for white (my first white Xperia), as it looks more premium than the black version. Which ones did you go for?
I went for black. My Note 2 was white (first white handset I've owned) & I always regretted it when I saw the grey version...
I'll put up with the finger print magnet black this time

I have to say I'm still in two minds - I love the white aluminium finish on the sides and the back will show fingerprint marks less.
However, I'm not keen on the front of the device with the white border, which takes away some of the immersion when viewing content.
I'm in half-a-mind to change, but can't decide. I've been umming and ahhing for days now!
Almost had the same thought - use one of the light backcovers if blacks back is freaking you out.
Giving you the generally harmonious design of the black version, and leaves you alone with cleaning session if you're bugged of it.
Very close to switching my order now, the more I think about it, I think black will be better overall. The XZU will go into a case anyway, so the fingerprint problem isn't too much of an issue.
I just opened an account and ordered the C6833 LTE from here.

Its the same deal as clove with the free SW2 SmartWatch & SBH20 Bluetooth Headset. Altogether it cost me £543.05 You can get it one 3 months interest free credit but I'll just pay it off when the bill arrives.
You guys are paying stupid money, Clove and Very are a pure rip off, You people are just wasting £100+ to get it 24 hours early....

Personally I'll be selling the free accessories, so all in ill be paying £400ish for the device.
But seriously dude even if people were paying double that, just let them spend their money as they see fit, its no concern of yours.

Not in my country I'm not. In my country it costs ~£640, I bought it from Clove at 675, but while in my country I would have had only the handset, with that money I paid the handset, a SmartWatch 2, a bluetooth headset SBH20, a DK30 dock, and I also paid for priority shipping.
I won't sell the accessories simply because I would have bought them anyway, so, for me, this is saving money, not "paying stupid money".
You wanna get it in February when it costs 450? Suit yourself, nobody is telling you what to do.
And by the way, I've seen people spending three times what was worth a PlayStation 1 when it first came out just to buy it on D1, and the same thing happens over and over again with hundreds of items, so go and wait for a price cut while we stand in line to get our first batch.

I also ordered my XZU way back in early August(Seems like forever) and saw the confirmed date...I had messaged Clove just after that date was posted and they replied that they still did not have a confirmed date from Sony, so I don't know what to make of this and will hope that this is indeed true....
