Editor’s note: If you’re planning to get the 128 GB, by all means, go for Samsung Singapore’s store — it’ll be slightly cheaper because you won’t have to pay for shipping. However, if you’re going for 256GB and above, use your YouTrip card and shop on Amazon US. Even with the shipping and import fees, you’ll save about a hundred bucks!
🚨 Do note that the phone will only be released on 25 February 2022.
