Samsung has announced that their first 5G-capable smartphone, the Galaxy S10, will launch in South Korea on April 5, where it will be the first 5G phone in the country.

The S10 is expected to launch in the US soon after the Korea launch, possibly around April 11 to sync up with Verizon’s mobile 5G network launch. No price has been announced yet, but it is expected to retail for a couple hundred dollars more than the non-5G S10+ model. However, carriers may discount the phone to give customers an incentive to move to new 5G-capable hardware.
