Mine is still preparing, i have logged another email asking for an update, 2 weeks preparing now.

 

 

That's rough. Are you chatting or calling? 

 

I'd be requesting a manager at this point. 

 

Not sure where you are, but even turning up to a Samsung mall Kiosk and asking them to assist might be worthwhile. 

 

I admire your patience. I was prepared to wait a day or three or four.

You can change the behaviour of pulling down the blind back to what you're used to. 

 

For me, there's quite a difference from the old S22 Ultra. So far I'm quite happy with it. 

 

 

Thanks, That's much better. I like the new thing, but the way I hold and use my phone, I often ended up with settings when I wanted notifications.

Sadly all the Samsung Studio's were shut down almost 2 years ago now. 

The current activations they have are just promo so the staff will be unable to help.

Just called the 0800 and he said "Shipping has been request", sorry for the delay blah blah. So guess another 2 more weeks.

The wife got the pink one, it's almost cream honestly, pretty subtle.

 

What do colours matter really, as who doesn't use a coloured (black) case?

Bummer, mine's still at the 'preparing order/processing' stage. I ordered the S25 base model in Coral red on 24/01. This is definitely testing my patience.

My S25+ has been here for a week now and I haven't even opened the box as I'm not sure it was a good idea after reading the latest reviews.  I've been to the local Noel Leeming a couple of times to play with the Plus and the Ultra, and compare them to my S22+.  Yes, the Plus feels nice to use, but the screens look about the same once I set the S22 to full brightness, the camera is no different and the S22 actually feels nicer to hold with the curved sides.

 

On the other hand, the Ultra screen is a definite upgrade from both Plus models and it has a better camera.  It is the same width and thickness as the S22+ and slightly taller.  Even the weight feels similar.  Looks like I ordered the wrong phone, so the S25+ can go back, and I'll wait for the usual specials on the S series later in the year.





I was a geek before the word was invented!
