Leaked promo offers glimpse into Note 9 pricing

Samsung will unveil its new Galaxy Note 9 early next month, and while the company itself has tried to remain more or less tight-lipped on the device, pretty much all details made the rounds several times lately.

And today, we also get a glimpse into the pricing of the Note 9, courtesy of a poster that was published on Twitter by @bang_gogo_.

Although the promo is specifically aimed at the Indonesian market, these prices offer us an early look at how much the new flagship could cost when it hits the shelves in other countries as well, though it goes without saying that some differences are possible given the currency rates and the other taxes.

If this leak is accurate, there will be two Galaxy Note 9 versions priced differently depending on the amount of storage that they come with by default. The Note 9 with 128 GB storage may cost somewhere around $935, while the 512 GB configuration will be more expensive at approximately $1,215.

This means the top Note 9 may cost more than the iPhone X, which in the United States is available for $1,049 for the 256 GB version.

Three colors, special offers

Interestingly, Samsung will sell the Note 9 in three different colors with unique names, like Mystic Black, Engineered Blue, and Artisan Copper.

There are special offers that the company is planning for specific markets, and in Indonesia, the Note 9 will come with a free Samsung smart TV whose dimensions depend on the purchased phone configuration. The 128GB version of the Note 9 will come with a free 32-inch smart TV, while the 512GB model will include a 40-inch TV.

The Note 9 unveiling will take place on August 9, and the device could become available for the first customers later the same month. Rumor has it that Samsung could start sales even earlier than originally projected, in an attempt to compensate for the slow performance of the S9.
