Pre-orders of Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge under US major carriers have started on February 23 and the handsets are expected to arrive on March 11. However, recent reports claim that shipping notifications were sent to T-Mobile customers saying their handsets are already on its way.
According to Droid Life, even in the past, there have been scenarios of early pre-order shipping, especially those from T-Mobile. It can be remembered that last year's pre-order period, the said carrier shipped its orders almost two weeks early. This may seem to be happening again as some who have placed pre-orders have received "It's on the way!" emails from T-Mobile, indicating that orders are about to be shipped.
As of the moment, it is not yet known if any orders have actually made its way onto a truck, but with the notices going out, T-Mobile's overnight deliveries could be just around the corner. Nonetheless, it is still advised to just keep in mind that shipping notices could mean a label has been created and that these orders won't physically ship for a while.
