Samsung announced the devices on its website, and for fans of BTS, they sound like a really worthwhile purchase. We already know that the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus is a tremendous device and the Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus have already received a lot of praise since their release. Add in the special BTS branding, and you have a recipe for #BTSARMY excitement.
Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus BTS Edition
The internals of the phone remain the same, so buyers will get all the power they’ve come to expect, but they’ll also get a new purple heart design that’ll make the phone stand out from the crowd. It also features a purple glass and metal exterior, to keep with the BTS color scheme.
As for the software, the phone comes with pre-installed BTS-inspired themes and the band’s fan community platform, Weverse.
Inside the box is also a set of decorative stickers and photo cards featuring pictures of the band members, which is a nice little bonus for fans.
Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus BTS Edition
As for the buds, they’re also the same wonderful devices we’ve grown to love, but they’re dripping in purple. They also have the band’s logo and purple heart iconography featured prominently.
Like the phone, the Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus BTS Edition also includes photo cards inside the box.
BTS Edition availability
Both the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus BTS Edition and Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus BTS Edition will be available on Amazon and through Samsung’s website. Preorders open on June 16, and the devices are scheduled to be available on July 9, which just so happens to be the seven-year anniversary of the BTS fan collective.
The company didn’t reveal whether the prices for these devices would be the same as the versions without the BTS extras, but it did say that anyone who preorders the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus BTS Edition phone can get 50% off the Samsung Galaxy Buds Plus BTS Edition. Preorders of the earbuds also come with a BTS wireless charger.
