TL; DR
- Samsung India has announced that users can now pre-book their upcoming phones.
- Users will have to spend Rs 2,000 to pre-book the devices, but will receive a Smart Tag for free.
- The advance booking fee is deducted from the device costs.
Samsung confirmed that it will showcase new Galaxy Z Flip and Galaxy Z Fold phones at its Unpacked event on August 11, so users can reserve those devices in advance as well. Now Samsung India has opened pre-orders for the phones as well.
The Korean company announced that starting today (Aug. 6), Indian consumers will be able to pre-order the new phones by paying 2,000 rupees (~ $ 27) through Samsung’s online store or the Samsung Shop app. Users who choose this route will receive a Smart Tag for free, with the number of Rs 2,000 deducted from the total price of the device.
Samsung recently opened reservations in the US as well, offering an additional $ 100 trade-in value on your old phone, 12 months of Samsung Care Plus, and an unpublished pre-order offer. You can access the US reservations page and Indian registration page using the buttons at the bottom of the page.
Otherwise, we expect the Korean company to introduce the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3. Both devices are said to offer waterproof designs, while the Z Fold 3 is also said to get S Pen support.
The large foldable screen was also the subject of a major leakage today courtesy of WinFuture. The trusted German tech outlet claims that the Z Fold 3 will feature a Snapdragon 888 SoC, 12 GB of RAM, 256 GB to 512 GB of storage, and a 4,400 mAh battery. This device is also said to come with a triple 12 MP rear view camera system, a 10 MP camera for the smartphone screen and a 4 MP selfie camera under the display for the foldable display.
