UK release date pushed back?

[PuffGalaxy131]

Hi 

I noticed on the Samsung UK website that the date for delivery for S22/S22+ been pushed back to 25 March. I pre-ordered on 9 February on the day of the announcement and it was for delivery on 11 March.

Has anyone heard otherwise?

Are early pre-orders still being delivered on 11 March?

Appreciate any thoughts on this? Thanks....

I don't know why they still say it's in stock on there samsung uk web site as should say out of stock or order if it's not coming till end of next month.

I was lucky enough get mine on 25 Feb as I pre-ordered my s22 ultra through my mobile network I'm on for upgrade, now they are showing some models not coming till about 4wks time.

As more S22 and S22+ pre orders get filled. Delivery dates will get moved.
Trouble with pre orders, you have to get in early as with very popular devices, there's usually a rush to get orders in early

I also pre-ordered on 9 Feb through my mobile network, so hopefully delivery will be on 11 March. But as you say, now they are showing 28 days for delivery.....

It's just standard for pre-orders. They'll have a batch for fulfillment by a given date (11th), then they'll be a cutoff for orders for that date and the next batch allocated the 25th and repeat this etc until demand drops and it's down to next day!
Go by what your order tracking shows online, and given previous pre-orders I've made (and others on here) you may well find you get the magic DPD email about delivery a few days before the 11th!

That makes sense because there seems to be a very high demand for this S series compared to others in the past.

Putting my neck on the line here but I'd be surprised if they didn't start shipping some of the pre orders by this time next week.
I got my S20 & Galaxy Watch 4 pre-orders over a week before official launches.

I pre-ordered S22 white color on 9th Feb, but then a few days later I decided to change the color, and I requested Samsung for it, but they said we can't do it and you just cancel your order and make a new order. So I did that but now they say that the delivery will be on the 25th instead of the 11th (which was my original order delivery date).
Now the problem is that I am flying out of the country on the 16th. Is there any way possible to get my order before the 16th? I am really worried, please help me.

Your prediction maybe right on that! I'll keep an eye on my order tracking this week and next week. All good for me, increases my bill credit so I can use that to pay for a couple of monthly bills 😁

I got my ultra on the 21st of February
