To follow up.

Not only has Nearby Share turned up on Samsung TabS4, but Samsung included a quick toggle for the pull down shade! I have yet find one on my Pixel 3XL. Suffice it say, a quick test to share a photo from my phone to my tablet worked as advertised.
From what I read on the Google blog, we should all have a tile in the quick pull down menu, once Nearby Share is active for everyone

I noticed this morning that the new Nearby option was available in my Share menu, along with a new Quick Tile. Cool! Must be rolling out to folks not in the Google Play beta. But can't share with my Chromebook yet. I even followed a few guides to enable the Chrome flags to turn it on, which did make the option available in Chrome Settings. But phone & Chromebook still don't "see" each other yet. Many tech sites say it only works in Chrome OS beta or canary channels, and coming to stable soon. It should all be working fine soon. Thanks Google!
