Completed my preorder at 1:04 A.M EST. Got black with no other accessories. Order went through without any issue. Had to refresh the site starting at midnight until it popped up at around 1 A.M.
Looking forward to getting it.
I pre-ordered this morning around 8 with no issues. Three weeks can't come soon enough, haha.
Yeah preordered mine today at 3:00 AM no issues. Ordered a cover for it off Amazon too. Can't believe it's going to take longer to arrive than the phone.

Where did you get the tempered glass for that price?
I ordered the INVELLOP Screen Protector for the Note 4 on Amazon for 10 bucks shipped. Not sure about the actual quality.

Just made my pre-order. I usually go with Galaxy S(even numbers), but all the features finally convinced me. What is really cool is I also just had my work, order me a Moto X (2014) at the same time. So I will have a lot of fun with both. Didn't feel like a glass Sony Z3v that I would end up breaking. I also don't care for Verizon... but when it doesn't cost me anything, who the hell cares. Somehow I am perfectly happy with Sprint.
I just pre-ordered mine as well. I went for a white one.

You can get it for under 10 USD on ebay.
I ordered mine last week and it said I should have it by the 17th, I'm getting antsy!
Jarir and extra are having the same prices, unfortunately only 2 colors are available now according to extra's websites.
both s6 and s6 edge are priced much lower than the note 4 and note edge
https://www.extrastores.com/en-sa/search?page=1&q=S6
Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920 32GB Black
2499 SR
Samsung Galaxy S6 EDGE SM-G925 32GB Black
3099 SR
Samsung Galaxy S6 EDGE SM-G925I 64GB Black
3349 SR
Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920 32GB White

Actually in Jarir they have 3 colors available. White, black and gold. I have pre ordered mine and waiting for the availability.
Anyone know if it's on display anywhere in Saudi Arabia? It's everywhere in the UAE
They have display units already in the UAE?

White because fingerprints are easily visible on black and even in gold so I chose white. I was wondering if Samsung pay will be implemented in malls and retail stores in the kingdom

based on what i read it will work with most credit card swiping machines and not only NFC (sorry im kinda not that techy as a person lol)
Are you filipino by chance?
im going to bahrain april 2nd, most probably there will be display units in the flagship store in city center
When I saw this image on the FMP Facebook page, I rushed to my nearest location thinking that they had the S6 on display at these locations. Unfortunately they didn't have jack.
A samsung bahrain salesperson told me that the green will come in 2 months
When will it be available in Jarir store? Anyone has a clue? I hope Saudi Arabia will be included in the global release on the 10th. I still hadn't got any email from Jarir

The Samsung representatives in Jarir said it'll be available to buy on the 10th of April. Fingers crossed they have enough for everyone on that date!

If they don't have enough stock, then they'll prioritize the pre orders. I have pre ordered mine on the first day. Haha
There are no info about release date in Lebanon, you can just reserve one.
The rumors said only the 32gb will be available the first 3 months :crying:

I got their email too but I am here in Az Zulfi and will go to Riyadh on the 9th. The email said they will hold the unit until 9. A free case? I was wishing it would be the wireless charger. LOL. What is the case?
Anyway, my friend pre ordered on the first day too a 32 GB edge Gold. And he received an email saying it is not available. Instead they are offering the normal s6 in white and black or edge 64 gb black.
Can you take a photo of the case they are giving as a gift?
Also have you seen this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/help/flash-lit-t3069039
Can you check if this issue is found in your S6?
Last question. Did you buy a screen protector in Jarir or any other cases if they are available?
Thanks

I would have loved the Wireless charger too! The case is the 'Clear Cover' case from their official accessory list - I'm at work now and couldn't take a pic but here it is:
It's hard plastic but pretty useless as it provides quite minimal protection. Jarir do have other official cases available like the flip and view cases.
I can confirm that my S6 and my friends S6 both have the issue decribed in the linked thread - though its pretty hard to see it in mine, it's definitely there.
Another thing, the shipping firmware for the Saudi region is ANCIENT, almost prototype like - dated 28th Feb! It doesn't even have alphabetical sorting of the apps yet and the battery is so terrible that its almost unusable. I charged it to 100% yesterday and used it at half brightness for 1 hour and 41 minutes and the battery fell to 17%. Let it charge again overnight, woke up at 6:00am and haven't touched it at all because I'm scared and saw at 8:30am that it fell to 67% without any usage. I think they're not letting retailers sell it before the 10th because they're going to push out an update that the user is to download immediately.
shoudlnt you be getting an update as soon as you open it? i remember the note 4 when i bought it asked immediately to be updated and i hope that fixes your batatery problem
I think samsung rushed the phone to be released but the battery should not be that bad at all as I know.. I'm trying to get my device soon and let's see if I'll have the same issues or not
I already own Galaxy S5 and Galaxy Alpha, so that's why i'm thinking about buying iPhone 6 Plus, but i really like N5 and S6 edge+ ...what do you people think? Which one should i buy, which one would you buy?
I vote Edge+. This phone is simply stunning and a powerhouse. Just got my gold one today! AT&T.

Thanks for your reply, edge+ is probably the one i will buy but i'm not sure yet, it will arrive in stores in a few days so i need to see it in person first, but that's the one i'm betting my money on the most at this moment
You can see it now at Best Buy...it is beautiful. My last 2 phones I stayed away from Samsung with a G3 and Nexus 6...but as soon as I saw the Edge plus I knew I would be buying it. I preordered and pick it up Friday. Can't wait!!!

Nice selection... :good: Got the same, going to pick today.
Just got my Gold Platinum from UPS about an hour ago. Holy freaking &#*^! This phone is so flippin beautiful. I'm in love. Samsung hit a home run with this one. The people that are whining and complaining about not having an SD card slot and removable battery are gonna be sorry they didn't upgrade.
I ordered the 64GB Gold Platinum Edge+!! Can't wait til it gets here!!
I use prepaid Puretalkusa mobile so no need to select color provided by ATT or T-Mobile and hence bought factory unclocked Silver color from ebay whih i wil get on wednesday.I also ordered skins from slickwraps(hero series and metal silver) and I am going to change the look of my phone very 6 months with skins I ordered and why not it looks so damm beautifull.
Get the Note 5, Edge+ is cool and stunning looking but I personally think edge features are not worth the premium price. Give me a S Pen over an edge.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Listen this Edge+ is the best looking phone I have ever had and I've had just about every flagship device over the years (outside of apple) and this phone is the most gorgeous piece of technology I have ever owned. Get the Edge+ you won't regret it!!
wait for 6s
Get the edge plus or wait for the 6S Plus. Both be great phones.
For those interested, the gold note 5 is available on TMO now.
http://www.t-mobile.com/cell-phones/samsung-galaxy-note5.html
Bummer. I wish ATT would have this soon.
The one I wanted...but on vzw. GF got the edge+ in gold and the front is gorgeous
Kind of annoying they didn't have this 2 weeks ago when I got my white one.
Anyone familiar with jump on demand here? I have the blue note 5, could I "jump" to the gold version?
The gold Note 5 is available on Sprint as well.
Just got one today. Woot! They got 2 64GB gold models in today while I was standing there. Ha-ha. The T-Mobile guy asked if I had about 10mins to wait because he wanted to show me the gold model if I was ibterested, and I said I'll take it. He put the black one back and an employee got the other one. Not really that much gold though...more like a yellowish chrome kinda but definitely cool looking. Glad I waited for him to inventory it and snag it for me.
It's finally available on AT&T

I just jumped from the N4 to the gold 64gb N5 and it's definitely one of the most visually appealing devices I've ever had. I've a lot of white lately but the gold is where it's at.

I think sprint just got the gold option recently as well. I really wish they would have brought the emerald green over to the us in the note and s6 line. That green on the s6 edge overseas was just sexy as hell
Too bad they opened up with the 2 most boring colors. I would have got the gold if it was available at the time.

Late on this one, but in case anyone was wondering: I was told this doesn't work UNLESS you jump to a different memory size. It was from a phone rep so take it with a grain of salt
Verizon has it now as well but only 32GB, like the white one. The black is through only 64GB for some stupid reason.
If verizon had the gold 64GB I'd change my black for the gold...I love that phone in gold

Anyone else disappointed that it'll only come in Black Onyx and Gold Platinum for the S7 while the S7 Edge will also come in Silver Titanium? I wonder if it's because of supply issues due to releasing it earlier this year.

I wouldn't think so. The colors them selves are just paint or stickers.
I do not think so, there should be 1 distinctions
From the looks of it, the UK only seems to be getting gold or black anyway. No sign of white or silver on the S7 or S7 Edge. Would love someone to correct me though. I really want a silver S7 Edge...
On a related note, the UK/EU website make no mention of a free GearVR for pre-orders (the US site does). That's despite their presentation saying that Europe would be getting that perk.
Canada seems to be getting a black/silver s7 and black s7 edge, strange that all colors are not available.

Good news indeed. Although I ran out of patience and ordered through CPW!
They make the white Note 5 and after a few months, they dont make it anymore. Dont know why the color stop.
I was bummed to find out that Samsung has only made the Black and Gold color options available-- I was really hoping to get the Silver or White. And, according to the Samsung rep, they don't why the decision was made or when the other 2 colors will be made available.
I'm hoping Samsung will surprise us and release the other colors on March 11 and I'll exchange the Gold I pre-ordered for one of the new colors.

CWH is not giving the gear VR with sim free purchases.
I ended up pre-ordering the S7 Edge in black, since the other two colors are too reflective (which looks tacky to me) and there is no white option. I wish they would have made them less reflective.
I ordered my s7 in black.. it was a no brainer since I thing gold is tacky... I would have ordered it in white if it was available.

They are if you look at their terms and conditions. I phoned to double check as well. The first person I spoke to said the same, until I showed her the website and she checked with her manager.
SIM free orders have to wait up to 5 days for delivery of the headset after the phone though.

By the way - at Verizon, the Gear VR/G2 promotion is only available if you purchase the phone at full price through their payment plan... Luckily, I get my phone through work and am still grandfathered into unlimited data so I just used another work line's available upgrade.
