Nah, it was already expensive enough. I didn’t see the point with external storage being so much cheaper. I already have a 200GB memory card lying around.
This was the reasoning my husband had to order the 128GB model. I used the same reasoning when I redid my order for an unlocked 128 GB gray Ultra. Basically twin to my husband’s phone. I really like Comrade Grey!

My Ultra preorder is queued up behind my S20 order. I went to Best Buy today and had serious doubts about trading my Note 10 Plus away for a very small phone (relatively speaking) and leaving myself with two small displays for content consumption. Also the zoom is really sweet. Might regret not getting it for vacation photos.

But my desire for a portable form factor is still a factor. So my husband gets his phone Tuesday. Pinky gets here maybe on Friday. I’ll get to try out the Ultra at home. Before I even open the S20.

I will return the S20 if I really fall for the ultra. Color isn’t really a factor. I would probably prefer pink. But only slightly at this point.

Samsung lured me back with 10% off due to my first Ultra cancellation. I was able to keep the preorder under $750 and that includes tax which is nice. And I would get earbuds and 2 nice cases.

Of course I’d have no idea when all that would get to me with all the rumored supply issues.

Oh finally! I got a tracking number for my pink S20. But the cases that I picked with my credits are still in process. Pinky is supposed to arrive on Thursday.

Mine arrived in my local city from the FedEx hub! But it still says delivery is Tuesday?
They won't just sit on it for a day will they?

Hmm, so Tuesday for Ultras so far. I wonder what took so long to get my S20 into the shipping queue. Maybe I blew up their system with my second Ultra orders. Lol! Well it serves me right for being indecisive not down to the wire but right on past it! I go through this all the time with these phones. Sometimes I'm more decisive than others. I don't get it. I'm not like this about anything else, usually. Except maybe what to have for dinner. Our entire family dithers about that.

Dying to know if s20 preorders or sales will exceed Note10's in a giving amount of period.
I am not sure it will match the Note 10. The coronavirus has really affected sales. Samsung has had to shitdown plants and so forth

I bet you get it tomorrow. Finally got tracking for my Ultra, set to deliver Tuesday.
I called Fedex because my phone is at the local sort facility. They said it will not be delivered today due to shipper instructions but it will be delivered tomorrow as the shipping label indicates :-(

That stinks! I think my husband is supposed to get his tomorrow and I get mine Wednesday now.

I was looking through my old photos. My S10+ took some good ones while I had it. But some of the best videos I ever got came from my S7 and my S7 Edge! That series introduced me to stereo audio on home videos. Even some of the camcorders I had at that time did not sound as good. I can’t wait to see what these S20’s can do.

Some of the reviewers seem a bit touchy about the prices. But even when I was a broke kid fresh out of college I saved for the better part of a year to by my first camcorder and that old RCA cost me well over $1000. And I couldn’t even surf the internet or make calls on it. Um, we barely even had internet back then, lol. AOL mostly!

Mine comes on Wednesday but I'm going to be out of town until Thursday afternoon, so I'm probably going to set up a pick up for Thursday.

Bummer. Well, safe travels to you. Thursday will come soon enough.

Every time I find myself on pins and needles waiting for something I stop and remember I’m actually wishing for the remaining days of my life to pass quicker which means I’m sort of wishing to be older sooner. 😳. But then the moment passes and I’m back to stalking my phone on FedEx.🤪

Son of a gun! Sitting at my office and got notice of delivery for my S20+. I should've gotten it shipped to work, oh well. Excited to play with it later.
