Highlights
  • The DeX station will be bundled for free
  • Pre-orders are live in South Korea
  • Samsung Galaxy S8+ 6GB will be available in China as well

Last week, the Samsung Galaxy S8+ 6GB RAM variant went official on the company's South Korean website, and now the device is up for pre-orders. The 6GB RAM + 128GB storage Samsung Galaxy S8+ Midnight Black Variant can be pre-ordered for KRW 1,155,000 (roughly Rs. 65,200), and all pre-order customers will get the Samsung DeX station as a bonus.

South Korean site Yonhap News further reports that the 6GB RAM Galaxy S8+ variant is currently going to be made available only in South Korea and China, but it doesn't rule out international availability completely. Samsung will probably consider launching it in other markets depending on the demand, the report states.

In South Korea, there is also the option to pre-order the 4GB variant if need be, at KRW 990,000 (roughly Rs. 55,900). However, there will be no free DeX station bundled in. The 4GB Samsung Galaxy S8 and Samsung Galaxy S8+ are up for pre-order in various markets across the globe. In India, pre-registrations have gone live, but there is no word on pre-orders, price, or overall availability.
