Softening the blow: the Galaxy S9 will be bundled with free gifts... in some markets
22
So, the rumor mill is relentlessly churning out reports that the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ duo will be “the most expensive Galaxy S phones ever”. No numbers have been pinned, but considering that the Galaxy S8 started at $750, we are thinking that the Galaxy S9 might hit the $800 mark as its starting price... and we are wincing a little on the inside.
Apparently, select markets will get a special gift to go with their brand-new Galaxy S9. What kind of gift? Well, we don't know yet. Possibly a new set of Gear VR goggles? A game controller? Wireless headphones? OK, we are dreaming now.
Unfortunately, the leakster did say that only a few markets will get the gift bundle, which means that the rest of the world will have to pay the full price without getting many perks in return.
The price of the flagship smartphone is rising steadily and that hurts. However, Samsung will try to soften the blow, according to a new rumor.
