If you’ve already placed your order for a new Samsung Galaxy S4 on AT&T, you’re probably impatiently awaiting its arrival on April 30. But if you’re lucky, you may get it several days early. The carrier has begun informing some customers that it is shipping the device earlier than originally expected, with delivery as early as Thursday, April 25.

Not all Galaxy S4 customers will get their device early, but we’re assuming that the earlier you placed your order, the better your chance at getting before April 30. Some customers have already received notifications from AT&T, which read:

Thank you for ordering the Samsung Galaxy S® 4 from AT&T. We are excited to announce that we are able to ship devices earlier than originally expected. Customers who preordered their smartphone early can begin receiving it as soon as April 25th.

AT&T goes on to say that shipping notices will be sent out as soon as orders are dispatched.

If you haven’t already ordered your Galaxy S4 and you’d like to get it as soon as possible, then it’s probably best you pick one up from an AT&T store now. The carrier has confirmed that the device will go on sale in-store on Saturday, April 27 — that’s just four more days of waiting.
