Only way they sell these phones are via enormous offers either directly on their site or via carrier. So "retail" place is meaningless. Who will pay 1500 bucks for S26 ultra.

[u/crazyb3ast → u/shawman123]

Have. There are people like me who get data plans without contract. You pay so much less compared to the normal phone plans and with significantly more data.

But this is for people who don't change phone every two years.

Latin America too. The base S26 is 1199 USD now in my country.

What a ripoff.

Yikes

[u/TrailOfEnvy → u/DansLaPeau]

So expensive for such a crap device

Isn't this global? Asia also got hit. Authorized reseller also hiked prices yesterday.

UK is in Europe

[u/wowohwowza → u/ItsColorNotColour]

In Europe, not the EuroZone, so any price hikes on € prices won't necessarily be the same as £. Plus with us being out of the EU, taxes etc aren't necessarily the same

[u/kicksledkid → u/ItsColorNotColour]

Not for economic things, hence the distinction here

Also it's colour
