Lumia 950 now available in the US from AT&T

[darkpgr]

Heads up everyone, the Lumia 950 is up on AT&T's website

I'm not seeing a AT&T Next or Upgrade option on my Premier account, only the no-commitment price though ($598.99...)

Ordered mine through Next like 2 1/2 hours ago in matte white. Says it will ship Nov 20th-24th.

Thanks for the suggestion, that doesn't seem to work for me though... as soon as I try to add it to my cart as an upgrade, it takes me to the Premier site and leaves the no-commitment price as the only option :/

I've gone and added the 950 to the cart, but since I'm premier, I end up going through the premier site. But there are errors when I try to add the tablet. I want to get the deal on the Surface tablet.

I just did the same. I kinda wish I didn't because I was thinking I'd get it by the 20th. I should have just waited until Friday and gone to the store :-( Now I'm going to have to wait longer than everybody. Also, I ordered a cheap bumper case off of Amazon to hold me over until that Mozo case is available.

Placed my order for a matte white 950 through AT&T Premier. I'm hoping that the posted shipping estimate of 11/20 - 11/24 is wrong, and I receive it sooner. If the phone doesn't seem to be moving before Thursday, I might try to cancel and pick up in store on Friday.

 

[MirthRock]

Good idea. I was a little concerned because they didn't let me choose a shipping method either. It just said "Free" shipping was available. So even if it goes out on 11/19, I doubt they'll do overnight shipping with Saturday delivery...although, I hope they prove me wrong.

 

[mkenyon2]

I didn't end up ordering, since I wanted the combo deal. I may go into the AT&T store tonight and see what's up. I had really wanted the XL, but I think this deal on the Surface is good if I can get it.

most people, myself included, seemed to have issues with premiere. eventually i did get to order as it showed up for me 20 minutes later. received an "order has been processed" txt a little while ago, so pending shipping i guess.

I had a free and a next day shipping option when I preordered last night. I chose next day (it was $15) and I'm hoping for early next week

I am so tempted (my cart is ready for checkout), but I really want an unlocked one to get away from AT&T bloat and (hopefully) their delays in releasing updates.

This sure has been a painful and confusing release, I hope they are taking notes on how to not release a phone.

*EDIT*
I caved, my 920 is nearly dead and my 635 is not a daily driver for me. I didn't want to miss out on this and have to wait for restocking.

I see the reports of it not being available with no contract aren't true.

It says there is a $15 activation fee. I assume if you buy it in a store you would NOT have to activate it (don't care about the $15). If someone was giving it at a gift or if a non-AT&T customer wants to snag one for $2xx via the AT&T Access CC deal and unlock it immediately for use on another carrier, they won't want to activate the phone.

Friday is Payday for me, and I have a good AT&T store in town. Oooh boy!

Ordered through our work ATT account this morning. Was on work Verizon account, so required a carrier switch as well. My order status has changed from "Pending Transfer" to "Preparing to Ship". Really hope it ships before the dates given (11/20/15 - 11/24/15) since I am going to be out of the office all of Thanksgiving week, with no hope of picking it up from work until 11/30/15, if it does not arrive by end of Friday.

Does AT&T ship their phones with the sim preinstalled? I just ordered this to upgrade my Moms 640 and that phone has a micro sim vs a nano sim on this phone. Also not sure if I can just pop the nano sim out of my 1520 and put it in the 950 XL I have ordered and have it just work like on T-Mobile.

I've bought some AT&T L640s that did have the SIM installed. Don't know if true of other AT&T phones.

They usually have the sim in the box with the phone, and still have you insert it.

Cool. I figured as much. Swapping the sim from my 1520 to my 950XL when it comes in seems like it will work no problem too.

I went into our local AT&T store last night. We're in a small town (Lebanon, PA) but they do have 6-8 AT&T people in there. I asked for whoever was most familiar with MS devices, and Rob said he used to test for them. So, I asked about the 950s. He said they 'might' have them Friday (Nov 20th). He told me a MS rep was in the previous week and said they might have them in. I asked if I could pre-order one and pick it up Friday, but he said no, my best bet was to come in Friday. I asked how early Friday (they open at 10AM) and he said if they were here they'd be in Thursday night to be sold Friday.

I also asked about the Surface 3 deal. He said they don't keep them in stock, but if I came in and got the 950 Friday I could also order the Surface to get the deal, and it would be shipped directly to me, it would take 3-4 days.

I also asked if they would carry the Band or Band 2 since they do carry some wearables, and he said he had no idea. He said he would love to give a better answer, but had to tell me what he knew.

They did have the 640 and 640XL in stock, and when I bought my wife's 830 about 4-5 months ago they were very helpful. YMMV
