Woo! Got a certain text from T-Mobile yesterday!

UPS still shows estimated delivery as Monday, 08/15/2016, but it also shows the phone in Louisville, KY, waiting to be picked up by UPS. Maybe I'll get the phone on Tuesday.

Yep, same here. It's still possible they're actually out and the system just hasn't updated, but I'm more expecting tomorrow now.

Mine shows shipped finally this morning and I have a FedEx tracking number. The big question is how can it take 5 days to get from Memphis, Tn to Birmingham, Al? My delivery date shows on FedEx as Friday!
Maybe Samsung has told carriers that there are to be no more deliveries of pre-orders prior to the official release date so pre-orders are ready for shipment but are being held until Thursday and then shipped overnight.

I got my shipping info 2 days ago. My phone has been in PA both days, and I live in PA. Says something about ''future delivery requested''. My estimated delivery date is the 18th.

So, yeah... I'm thinking Verizon told them not to deliver them yet. Otherwise I should have gotten it today or tomorrow.

I really thought that with T Mobile would have gotten it to us quicker

I've never done a T-Mobile pre-order before, so I haven't experienced the early shipments that I've seen talked about on past flagship phone orders, but I do remember being very envious of many T-Mobile customers that would get their devices a few days prior to the official release date. Considering that it's overnight shipping, I'm fine if I don't hear/receive any confirmation until the 18th. While I'd love to be lumped into the early shipment crowd, I just need to get it before I leave out of town.
