Great news for LG fans in Europe, as the company plans to make its flagship smartphone available for pre-order on March 18. Although not all European countries might get the G5 later this week, at least it will arrive in some of them.

According to a new report coming from Techastic.nl, LG G5 will be available for pre-order in the Netherlands beginning March 18. The same report mentions customers will be able to purchase the smartphone for no less than €700 outright.

For a flagship smartphone, this isn’t really a high price, but to make things more interesting, LG will also throw in a camera grip worth €100. This camera grip will be offered for free to all those who pre-order the G5 in the Netherlands.

Unfortunately, we don’t know whether or not this incentive will be available in other countries as well. If not, maybe LG will offer some other free stuff with G5 pre-orders.

€700 outright or free on two-year contracts

Customers in the Netherlands will be pleased to know that they will be able to grab the LG G5 for free on €36 plans for 24 months at Tele2. Other carriers will offer the LG G5 too, including KPN, Vodafone, and T-Mobile.

Even though LG G5 will be available for pre-order on March 18, it will take a few more weeks for the smartphone to hit shelves. Rumor has it that Europeans will get the LG G5 at the same time as customers in the United States, April 8.

However, file this information under rumor until LG announces more details on the G5’s availability. It’s also worth mentioning that LG G5 will be available in multiple color options such as silver, titanium, gold and pink.

Many compatible accessories previously announced by LG at Mobile World Congress will be launched around the same time the G5 will be available on the market.
