After much rumor and speculation, the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ have been officially revealed, and we’re sure that there are quite a few of you guys who are eager to get their hands on the handset. So the question is how much will the phone cost and when will it be available for purchase?
For those planning to get it unlocked, the phones are priced at $750 and $850 respectively, which is a hefty amount of change to part with. However if you are planning on getting it from a carrier, the pricing and availability and bundles of the carriers have been revealed. Starting with AT&T, the carrier will be holding a buy-one, get-one deal for the Galaxy S8 and S8+. Customers can choose to make monthly repayments from as low as $28 to $36 a month.
Next up will be T-Mobile where the S8 will be priced at $30 a month over the next 24 months, but for those who want the larger S8+, it will cost the same but you will have to put down a $130 down payment first. Sprint will be offering a leasing plan at $31.25 a month for 18 months, while the S8+ is priced at $35.42 a month for 18 months. Customers can choose to upgrade to a newer Samsung phone, like the Note 8, after a minimum of 12 repayments.
Last but not least is Verizon where the repayments are set as low as $15 a month with an eligible trade-in. Without a trade-in, the S8 is priced at $30 a month, while the S8+ is priced at $35 a month over a 24 month period. The phones are expected to be available for pre-order come 30th of March and will be released on the 21st of April.
