Tab s8 ultra 256gb ordered on Feb 16 yet to be delivered :(

I sold my tab s7 + hoping that I would get tab s8 ultra soon much to my disappointment I haven't gotten the device and we are at end of March.



Such a poor and disappointing service

I assume you ordered from Samsung? They either ship the next day or take their sweet time. I waited over a month for my S7+. And that was before the chip shortage, supply chain issues etc.

This question should be asked far more often than it is.
Do you not have anything else to do rather than argue with strangers on the internet
Nope. That's why I'm on the internet arguing with strangers. If I had anything better to do I'd probably be doing it.

From the Watch 4 preorder thread, they were shipping out several months after launch, with a free stand charger. The thing is... after launch discounts + trade in bonus made it an even better deal than preorders. And Samsung didn't ship chronologically. Some preorders were shipped out after post launch orders.

Samsung is the opposite of Apple when it comes to ecommerce.

Of course you do run the risk of stock issues and they not accepting orders. If you want it right away, the safe bet is still pre order given supply issue for a lot of things, there could possibly be stock issues. Example trying to find an iPad, MacBook, etc during Xmas was pretty hard if you didn’t pre order (tho apple still took orders, it took a while/after Xmas from what i read).

So you sold what you had before you had the new one in your hands? That's a bit silly, dontcha reckon?

It was but i had to sell my old tablet to justify the purchase lol.

Anyhow i have received the tablet with all the freebies. Love the tablet and the book cover. Will easily replace my existing laptop.
