Mine says by Wednesday, (unlocked direct from Samsung)

I don't know how much it matters to people but one of the things I'm looking forward to about these phones over my S10+ is the location of the NFC reader. On the S10+ it's in the middle of the phone on the back but on all of the S20's it's at the top of the phone.

It sounds stupid but if you've ever used iPhones for Apple Pay or even the Note 10, you'll understand that having the location of the NFC reader at the top of the phone makes it much easier to tap your phone for payments or public transportation. I'll no longer have to adjust my grip to pay by phone.

Bro I feel you 100% When I'm using it at any drive thru or bank drive through the location of the iPhone sensor makes it seemless. Samsung putting it on the back makes no sense. Thanks for the info I didn't know they changed it but man I am glad they did.

I bet they hold it until the 4th. That's what happened last year. I hope not for your sake though, obviously.

Mine is in NYC at a sorting facility. There are reports that people have received theirs since last week so I don't know if they''ll actually hold them until the 4th.

[BlueAngel]

Guess we'll find out in the morning.

I just got a second tracking number for tomorrow, so I guess one is the accessories and the other is the phone.

Edit: Looks like my buds will come in tomorrow and the phone/leather case will come together on wednesday.

Jealy. Mine are still sitting in "placed" although, I swear the green line moved a little more towards the Ready to Ship. 

[BlueAngel]

Phone's were delivered now to wait and open them after work this is going to kill me lol.

lol, as soon as I finished typing that message, I got the update on my phones as ready for UPS with a delivery date of tomorrow. Executive Team fixed my account, ordered my phones, got the ship-to addresses correct for the phones (3 locales), waived the upgrade fees, and put them in as priority overnight shipping. Damn, Tamaura, excellent work. 

[BlueAngel]

Setting up my phone now, just installed a system update so still a few things to do. First thing I did was turn on 120Hz and wow it's amazing. 😊

Yeehaw! It was delivered around 3pm! Hope to get it activated and set up soon. Gotta go get a case now since I wasn't expecting it until Wednesday. Hopefully the Sprint store has them out already. Best Buy said they won't be on the shelf until the official release of the phone.

Found 5G a little bit away from home and it's glorious. Sprint has 5G here just not officially I guess.

I have quite a few phones the kids want to upgrade.. told them they have to wait a few months for those deals..
