O2 has announced that its customers can now pre-order the hotly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ flagships, before they go on sale on 16th March. Keen fans who put in their order for either handset before 8th March will receive it seven days earlier than general sale.

Available for pre-order on O2’s market leading O2 Refresh and flexible tariffs, customers can now get their hands on both the Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ in Midnight Black, Coral Blue and Lilac Purple colour variants tariffs offering O2’s best ever data deal – buy 5GB and get an extra 10GB on us, up to an enormous 90GB; when you buy 50GB and get an extra 40GB on us. 

With flexible tariffs, customers can move their bills up or down each month, giving freedom to adjust how much data they expect to use – giving customers greater flexibility and control over their monthly bills.

Additionally, the long-awaited new devices will be available on both O2’s coveted Yearly Upgrade Programme and returning free screen replacement promotion. The Yearly Upgrade Programme offers customers the opportunity to trade in their phone after only 12 months and upgrade to a new one without having to pay to end their current O2 Device Plan. Customers can also receive a free screen replacement over the course of 24 months with specific O2 Refresh tariffs.

The Galaxy S9 and S9+ builds on Samsung’s heritage of creating stunning designs and functional devices. The 5.8-inch and 6.2-inch models offer an Infinity Display that allows users to see more and hold less, for a deeper experience when viewing photos or movies as well as new re-imagined camera technology that allows for great photos, even in dark settings.

Plus, dual stereo speakers tuned by AKG offer a cinema-like experience with Dolby Atmos surround sound. The Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9+ offer Bixby Translate to help users speak the local language when abroad, not to mention also water resistant up to 30 minutes at 1.5metres making both devices the ideal travel companion.
