I just went to Best Buy and used the S6 and S6 Edge.....that edge is special. Not sure if it's worth $100, but dang, really sets the look apart from all phones. The Samsung Experience drone manning t

Does anyone knows why Sprint is not offering the 128 GB Galaxy S6 Edge???

It was on the Best Buy pre-order page a couple days ago. I know I saw it in black and white.

Yeah, kinda odd. Not sure what's up with that.

 

I am hoping that Sprint will start shipping, following T-Mobile's lead.

Yep. There's folks all over the XDA and other sites posting up pics. I'm envious.

Well everyone should receive the 32gb models by the 10th if not earlier. The only one that is delayed is the gold model which for right now is 64gb only,thats the one I ordered and they said two to three weeks from order date. I figure they are under promising and they may ship them sooner.

 

Amazon is listing the gold/platinum model in 32GB. Unless it's an error, this is the only listing for this that I've seen.

It does show April 27 as release instead of April 10.

Yeah, not sure what the deal is with that but I figure since they will probably get their stock from sprint then sprint should have it much sooner unless they just put a random date hoping for the best.

How bout the free GS6/Note 6?  Best deal yet!  I wish they would have done this with the nexus 6.  Is it worth signing a new contract for the free GS6?

So here's my unfortunate dilemma: I just found out I'll be out of town from the 10-13th. Now I'm thinking of just ordering the gold one since I'm going to lose those several days anyways.

 

What color do y'all like the best?

 

I've read the white hides fingerprints the best, but that it also reflects light a little too much. The black sapphire shows the fingerprints the most. I'd really like to see the gold one in person, but nobody has it as a demo.

Gold platinum for me, black and white is a little too common so I went with the gold just to be different but it does look the best though except for the emerald green.  I wish sprint had the emerald green.

Yeah, I think I'm just going to order the Gold/Platinum from Amazon and see what happens being they're listing a 32 GB model and nobody else is.

 

It might be an incorrect listing, and knowing Amazon, it could result in them giving me the 64 GB at the same price, or getting some type of gift card for their mistake. Worst case, I get what I ordered.

Both of my S6 cases came in today. While they look nice I don't think the camera will be protected as much. But hey for $11.99 per case can I really complain. e95bcd1716fc73e41906c4641aad0ea9.jpg9d63948456b59a07b0de1f69b79e4734.jpg

It's a nice case especially for the cost. I'm just curious as to how far the camera will stick out past the case. Or maybe I think the camera doesn't stick out as far as I think and it's really flush with the case.

Sprint tweeted that the S6 will start shipping out on Monday. Hope the S6 Edge is included as well.

I am sure the edge in black and white will ship, I am concerned about the gold though.

Hey that's good news. I'm going on vacation Thursday afternoon. Wonder if I order now if I'll get it before then.

Anybody want to venture a guess as to how that relates to Best Buy pre orders?

Are the in store pre orders in sync with the online pre orders when it comes to certain models being on backorder?

You are out of The Loop in Chicago?  But if we find someone else who is between Wabash and Wells and Lake and Van Buren, he will know the scoop?  Okay, we need to find such a person.

      Dish Network/Boost Mobile cell/5G buildout thread

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
