Galaxy Fold Pre-Order waiting thread - Samsung Galaxy Fold Guides, News, & Discussion

What color combo/carrier did you order and what are you most excited about for this phone?
I personally preordered in the martian green with the silver spine. I placed the order shortly after pre-sale went live, while watching GoT. I can't wait to get my hands on new tech, i have been very impressed with my s10+ and hope to have a better experience with the fold.

By May 1st, but imagine it will come in by the 26th. Looks like they sold 4500 each of att and tmobile.

I got Martian Green with the gold spine. I figure a futuristic phone would look cool in a funky color. I specifically wanted the gold spine and it's only available with blue and green. The carriers are only selling black and silver with a grey and silver spine so I figure those will be the most common combinations. CNET just posted 70 hands-on pics and a lot of them are green. I don't regret my choice..

Really that's surprising considering people were making a huge deal about the price and crease issue.

what about unlock status? i want to buy one, but which is unlocked?

Gotta pay to play....and the crease is likely a result of first gen tech, I'm sure it will improve. That said, most reviewers are saying it fades out of sight as you continue to use it...much like a notch.

Seems like there was more demand than everyone expected. I just so happen to check my email on a whim and saw the Pre-orders now open link. It was an hour after they sent them out too. Once I saw that some colors were already gone I figured they were selling fast. Didn't expects those numbers though

Right now its only AT&T and Tmobile. It's possible they will release the phone to other carriers later on with the 5g variant. They still haven't said much about that model

I just pre-ordered the T-Mobile version. I'm planning on buying a pre-paid T-Mobile SIM, load it up with $100 worth of minutes/data, and then request an official unlock code from T-Mobile, as per their unlocking policy. Then I'll test out my Verizon SIM. Verizon is shutting down it's CDMA network at the end of the year, so as long as the Fold can handle LTE bands 2/4/5/13/66, it should hopefully be able to work on Verizon. If it ends up not working, I guess I'll be getting a refund from Samsung.

How are you going to get a refund if you would have used it for a while

You can get a refund from Samsung if the device is returned to them within 15 days, as long as it's in like-new condition. https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/phones/standard-device-trial-policy/
But if for some reason they won't accept the return, I'll just sell it on eBay.

I also ordered a Martian Green with a Gold Hinge. I know that there will be many shortcomings with the Fold but I just couldn't resist. I do love being an early adopter and with that being said if I am totally dissatisfied with the Fold, I'll return it and just use my Note 9 until the N10 comes out. I think that I'm going to really like this phone and I'm so anxious to get it and hopefully won't want to return it.
On another note, when I ordered on Samsung.com, I took screenshots of each page as I ordered. Only the final confirmation page **did not** state the Martian Green color, only the gold hinge color. Also, my confirmation emails didn't show the Martian green color either (and the Shop Samsung app doesn't).
Did anyone else have this same experience? I chatted with two different Samsung Agents (one today, one yesterday) and they were worthless. Coldn't find any information. The one tonight said to wait until they are in stock to verify. WTH?!?

Damn I'm on T-Mobile and was only able to choose between silver and black. it sucks i wasn't able to choose the Samsung exclusive colors.
ended up getting the silver would have preferred the blue though with gold hinge

AT&T here, I was apprehensive about the phone but after watching the hands-on videos, it made me really want one. By then it was too late and Samsung.com was already out of pre-orders. Like you, I settled for the silver but really wanted the blue with gold hinge. My estimated delivery is the 24th, so we'll see how true that is. Super excited though, even with it's shortcomings I'm just ready for something super different. I remember when the Galaxy Note originally came out and people were going crazy at the size of it. I can only imagine the reactions when I pull the Fold out hahaha.

that's weird because during ordering if i choose the At&t version I was only able to select the blue/green colors but only silver/black with T-mobile.
and you say they were out of pre-orders but you were still able to get one?
Yah I also cannot wait to see the expressions on peoples faces, you will definitely get some looks lol

Oopps, sorry I didn't specify. Samsung.com pre-orders were already gone, I had to go on AT&T's site to pre-order instead. It looks like the pre-orders are still up for them with Silver and Black being the only colors.

AT&T One Preorder - Silver only???

I was all ready to pull the trigger on a preorder today, and was sitting on top of my machine like a buzzard over a dead deer, only to find that the only color option is silver. Any word on ETA for black?
Just saw the same thing. I was going to get the silver and picked a data plan. Then told me not available in my area WTF

Just tried to contact the 'chat' help on AT&T. They tell me they have no ETA on black, but that level of 'employee' probably wouldn't be in-the-know on such a thing. Any feedback is appreciated.

I went ahead and ordered the silver. I have a TyTNII (Tilt) to return on the trade-in program that's worth $100, so I figure even if I get whacked with a $35 restocking fee to trade colors if they come out with black a month from now, I'm still ahead of the game.
Only the silver ones are available for pre order - apparently the black ones might not make it for launch according to our internal documents.

LOL! If you're at the store on Dunning Road, you guys sold me my Inspire. Small world.
So, you're saying that there won't be any black at all, or that they just won't be available for a while yet?
Probably wont be for a while.
Black will come at a later date most likely.

Why the delay? I know they're already out on the streed based on posted pictures. What gives?
Probably production setbacks for whatever they do to make the metallic black.
Silver is probably easier to manufacture.
Havnt seen a black review of the htc one yet lol
The black is an anodized finish so that takes some time, plus they might have to polish out some spots for a ground contact or something. It would take more time to produce but probably they thought very few people would want black.
I'm glad it worked out this way. I couldn't make up my mind which one to get so when I went to order it ATT made up my mind for me.

Well that makes one of us.I'll take no One before I'll take a silver One.
I'm really tired of this crap. Last time it took forever to find a white HTC One X, and now the black HTC One is going to take awhile for me to get. If I hadn't just broke the screen on my One X, I guess I could wait, but I really don't want a silver One.
I figure the phone is gonna be in an Otterbox or Seidio case totally covering it anyway, so I'm good to go with silver.

Yeah, I preorderd at a store today 40m miles from my town. Stupid AT&T is blocking people with business discounts from preordering online. I have an 8525 charged up and ready to send. Just waiting for the info to send it in lol. Easiest $100 I ever made !!
I ordered the Developer Edition and as you all know there is no color selection prompt. :crying:
However, when I review my order it says "customer contact for additional information required." I wonder if they'll give us the option in a week or two?

Actually, I managed to pre-order online with my business discount. Now I just have one on my service, not equipment purchases so maybe that's different from what you have. Still glad I managed it though!
As for "Silver" - It'll be in a case anyways so I suppose color doesn't matter much. For the record, I am bummed that the red One isn't available anywhere.
I wanted a black one at first but I just did not want to wait another month or whatever. The silver is not bad and it will going in a case so I can live with it. I hope it doesn't take HTC a month plus to get the black version out.

If you're talking about the special pre-order bonus thing, you may want to make sure that phone is covered before you get your hopes up. Looking at the photos of that thing make me think its probably too old to qualify.

Stealth Black + Silence on Avail...

Anybody else find it curious that neither ATT nor HTC will comment on this color? It seems like you would earn the respect of more people if you provided an ETA or something to at least let people know where, and when this color will be available...
I keep seeing everyone talk about and get their Silver, and while the Silver is nice, I'd rather not have an Android Book Pro phone. Stealth Black is so crazy, and the idea of having a B-2 Bomber or F-117a in my pants is highly enticing.
That said, who else is holding out for Black, and how long will you wait, or have you heard anything about availability?

I hear some reps are saying that the black ONE will be out on launch date. But I don't trust them. If its true I believe we will know by Wed. or Thursday.
I'm not an addict I just flash a lot.
Don't expect a statement from either side.. We didn't get a official word on when the US will get it or if the delays will effect the US till late march
No word on the black stealth anyone?
I'm not an addict I just flash a lot.
I talked to a rep and this was their official stance on the Black version:
Mike S.: AT&T customers will be able to preorder the Silver HTC One on April 4, 2013.* The 32GB model will be $199.99 with a two-year commitment and the 64GB model will be $299.99 with a two-year commitment. The Silver model will be available in store on April 19th and availability on the Black model is still TBD. Customers who pre-order an HTC One are eligible to get a Free** Media Link HD wireless HDMI adaptor.Note: Due to supply constraints the Black HTC One will not be available for preorder.
Josh: Ok will the black be available on launch?
Mike S.: It is still to be announced. WE are hopeful that it will.

Where is Verizon V10?

Anyone know? In the launch announcement, but it is in T-Mo and AT&T stores and no word from Big Red. Assuming they are trying to stagger with the Droid Turbo 2 launch, but lack of info is an issue...Would be even more frustrating if we missed the LG 200GB SD + battery/cradle promo because of this.
I called customer service yesterday to do some account maintenance and brought up the phone. The rep had not yet heard of it himself, but started looking immediately. I mentioned that I had signed up for their email notifier through the coming soon page, but that AT&T and T-Mobile had just put it up for pre-order. He found it in their coming soon area as well, but said they had not yet seen a training on the device. I've worked in cell phones for 11 years. Once they get their training the phone is out within a week, if not days. I would be very suprised if VZW didn't accounce by mid-next week, especially with that deal LG is offering. It just makes sense for it to be within that time frame. Also, the G4 was available for pre-order from all carriers about a week before VZW released it. Finger crossed, anyway.
I've been hearing that it'll be tomorrow (10/30/2015).
knowing verizon, they probably want people to miss the promo so people buy memory and batteries direct from VW.
I'm an optimist.
AT&T is releasing theirs on November 6th. If Verizon misses the 15th that would be an absolute disaster. I would absolutely lose my ****. $300 worth of free stuff down the drain.
I just left a VZW store. They're in stock. Not releasing until 10/30.
$299 on 2-year contract. $28/month on payment plan.
After 2 years, will your monthly price go down (by $28)?

10/30 according to Verizon rep
Was on the phone with a Verizon rep that was very excited to learn about the phone's existence (LG fan). He spent a few minutes digging around, then got back to me with 10/30 as actual release date - not just pre-order.
I guess VZW is keeping this launch quiet because they don't want it to spoil the Droid Turbo 2 release.
10/30 would be cool....was in Alabama store today and guy said he was looking for something else earlier and computer showed "in stock" but not for sale yet. I just took it with a grain of salt and didn't press, but now seems in line with these other reports. I'm moderately excited about this phone.
I just left the verizon store they go them at 6pm here in Maryland they rep said they will be selling tomorrow

According to Droid-Life and Phone Arena, Verizon has released a statement claiming they will have preorders for the HTC 10 on April 29th. They will also have the phones available in store for demo on that date.

Actually is not bad at all, went to Verizon and I am very iimpresse!! Pre-ordered 2 of them. Can't wait until next week to play with it!
I am keeping my pre-order for the unlocked version.
Chatted with two representatives on the 13th who both said the unlocked version will work with Verizon, so I pre-ordered then and there. Talk about the unlocked version NOT working with Verizon had me concerned, and now that the pre-order for Verizon is up I thought I'd contact them through phone and check to see if I can switch my pre-order to the Verizon version.
Rep tells me I'd have to cancel my pre-order and place my pre-order for the Verizon version, I tell her my main concern was that the unlocked version wouldn't work with Verizon. She said no, it should definitely work with Verizon....
I am just going to wait and see. Worse comes to worst, I'll just return it and pick one up from the Verizon store at that point.

Completely agree with this. I looked at some of the main "issues" that reviewers complained about and they were SO overblown.
The screen looked fantastic from all angles. Didn't see any pink hue from the side. Camera focus was lightening quick. Maybe it isn't quite as fast as S7, but nothing you'd notice in real world use.
Only thing I was completely disappointed with was the speaker. Not only was it not loud, but it didn't sound impressive in the slightest. For a phone with separates, it did not sound as bassy as ONE speaker on my M8, and I'm fairly certain if I disabled one speaker on my M8 it would STILL be louder than the 10. Highly disappointed on that front. Hoping that I can tweak it with software and push at least a little bit more volume without distorting.

Pre-Ordering Microsoft Duo

Lets go!
Pre-ordered from the Microsoft store. Have been utilizing Microsoft rewards so I will get reward points for my purchase also. Now the wait ?
Pre-ordered, but went through AT&T sadly. Wanted the unlocked version, but it is too pricey outright.
I pre ordered mine via bestbuy. I am hoping this lightens my load while increasing my functionality. Here's hoping Verizon will activate on the esim and I can use AT&T on the sim slot

I also pre-ordered with AT&T, we have a business account with them. I'm going to make it my DD for a week or so to see if it would be a good fit for where I work. If there were just a few key differences I would feel a little more excited about it. My wish list in no particular order would be 1) Bigger batteries, at least over 5,000mA 2) Minimum 90 Hz refresh rate 3) Thinner bezels all the way around. I'm okay with some bezel just trim them maybe in half?? 4) Wireless charging (I realize I need to give up some thickness for the battery and charging coil, I'm good with it) 5) Stereo speakers, this will a media device to a certain degree.
Preordered through AT&T as well. Anxiously waiting, but I do have some reservations. My main one is the size. I'm coming from the Huawei Mate 20 X. Using a Pixel 4a at the moment to get used to a smaller screen again. None of the specs bother me. I get tired of hearing about the 855 processor. I mean just over 9 months or so ago every reviewer was gushing over how fast it was. Now, it's like a Model T in their eyes. Ridiculous. I'm just worried about the smaller screen size.
People get very hung up on specs, I have been hearing good things about performance but again that's just numbers. The real test will be individual usage and how it performs for each of us. If you have AT&T or Best Buy close by, you may want to see if they got demo units in. They were supposed to go live 08/28. there are YT videos popping up.
August 30 in best but near me
I wonder if they will ship out before the 10th to avoid possible delays
My understanding is that the device would be delivered by 09/10.

I read an article stating they'd start shipping on 9/10. I quickly checked my pre-order which clearly stated delivery by 9/10.

As does my AT&T order. if they say Delivery by 09/10 then they will make every effort to meet that commitment. (will any of them arrive early, who can say..) I have never had one show up late.
Cheers,
BR
at 9/10 it should be at your door.

Very odd cause most charges fall off in a few days . I work for Apple and we try not to do this so early cause we would get people who get there devices and then cancel the card later.
I’m hoping is means they will ship soon. I can probably look for my order number on UPS.
