Samsung is all set to
unveil its latest innovations in flagship smart phone technology at the Galaxy
Unpacked event on Sunday. Features, specifications, and design of the upcoming Galaxy
S9 and Galaxy S9+ aren't going to be much of a surprise
considering they borrow a whole lot from the previous-gen Galaxy S8 range.
However, the Galaxy S9 pricing has been the talk of the town, this time around,
as several reports reveal different strategies. A new leak has surfaced online
that reaffirms the suspicion that Samsung is looking to introduce a steep price
hike with the Galaxy S9 series.

A photo posted by user raulote on
Imgur, first spotted on Reddit, claims to be show a leaflet from a local
bank in Spain. The interesting part about this leaflet is that it allegedly
reveals the prices of Galaxy S9 - EUR
849 roughly Rs. 67,700 - and the
Galaxy S9+ - EUR 1,000 roughly Rs. 79,800. Interestingly enough, this
leak is in accordance with the pricing that tipster Evan Blass had predicted this
week. Blass had stated that the Galaxy S9 would carry a price tag of EUR 841 roughly Rs. 67,100 and the Galaxy S9+ would be priced at EUR 997 roughly Rs. 79,500 in unnamed European markets. While the prices do not
exactly match, the difference could be due to the fact that retail prices of goods
vary from country to country in Europe.
Apart from the pricing details,
availability of the two upcoming phones has been under speculation in the weeks
following up to the launch. Some reports claim we will see pre-orders
going live right after the launch event February
25 today, while others state that telecom operators in South Korea will
wait till February 28 to allow users splurge their money on the latest from
Samsung's bandwagon. We can expect the Galaxy S9 series to hit shelves by the
second week of March. Availability in India hasn't been confirmed although Flipkart seems to have listed a
product page for the phones, ahead of launch.
