    If you’re a Philippines resident who’s been waiting for your turn to pre-order what many are already calling the hottest smartphone of 2015, you’re in luck.

    Carriers Smart Communications and Globe Telecom have announced their retail prices for the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge. Smart Communications offers varying price points with its four plans (Plan 999, 2000, 5000, and 8000), and customers could pay as low as P800 ($17 USD) for 24 months for the 32GB Galaxy S6 and P1000 ($22) a month for the 32GB Galaxy S6 edge.

    To secure these prices, however, you’ll have to opt for Smart’s Plan 999, which provides 5GB of monthly data allowance. Philippines customers interested in paying a cash-out can expect to pay P19,200 ($428 USD) for the Galaxy S6 and P24,000 ($536 USD) for the Galaxy S6 edge. Keep in mind that these are starting prices for the 32GB models, and purchasing a 64GB or 128GB model will increase the cash-out and monthly fees.

    Globe Telecom has also opened up its Galaxy S6 and S6 edge pricing, with as much as PHP24,200 (~$540 USD) for the 32GB Galaxy S6 if you select the 599-899 plans. The 32GB Galaxy S6 can be yours for free with a two-year agreement if you select Plan 2499. The 64GB Galaxy S6 will cost PHP27,900 (~$623 USD) on plans 599-899, and PHP4,800 (~$107 USD) if you get it with Plan 2499.

    Early pre-orders could guarantee you free 3-month subscriptions to Spotify Premium and HOOQ, a 15% discount on GS6 accessories, 1GB of cloud storage, and a free month of Gadget Care and Navigation if you’re a Globe customer. Smart had a free wireless charger/pre-order deal available through March 20th, but, as the date suggests, it’s now expired.

    The Globe Telecom deals are available on select plans and until April 5th, so visit the link below to find out more. If possible, let us know that you’ve purchased your Galaxy S6 or S6 edge, what color, how many GBs of memory storage, and so on.
