Verizon will also begin taking pre-orders for both GS8 phones at 12:01 am ET on March 30, with a launch happening on April 21. Pricing will be $30 per month for 24 months ($720) for the Galaxy S8 and $35 per month for 24 months ($840) for the Galaxy S8+.

Verizon is offering special trade-in prices for the GS8 and GS8+ that’ll get you the new phones for as low as $15 per month when you sign up for Verizon Unlimited. You can get either the GS8 or GS8+ for 15 per month when you trade in the iPhone 6 or newer, Galaxy S6 or newer, or Galaxy Note. Trading in the iPhone SE, Note 4, Galaxy S5, LG G4, LG V10, HTC One M9, Moto Z Play, or Moto Turbo 2 will get you either GS8 phone for $20 per month.

And then there’s US Cellular, who will begin taking pre-orders for the Galaxy S8 and S8+ on March 30. Customers can get either phone free with qualifying trade-in, and those customers without a trade-in will get a $100 promo card at the time of their purchase.

At the time of publication, Sprint hasn’t announced its Galaxy S8 launch plans.

One other detail worth noting is that all four of the carriers that’ve announced their Galaxy S8 launch plans will give you a free gift if you pre-order the GS8 or GS8+. That gift includes a free Samsung Gear VR with controller and Oculus content to use with the headset.
