The LG Uplus model is introducing the Galaxy S22.

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-sun] LG Uplus announced on the 13th that it will conduct pre-orders for Samsung Electronics' smartphone, the Galaxy S22, for 8 days from the 14th to the 21st.

Customers who wish to pre-order can do so during this period at LG Uplus stores nationwide or through the official online mall, U+Shop. Pre-ordered devices will be activated sequentially starting from the 22nd, and general customers can purchase devices and activate services from the 25th.

To celebrate the Galaxy S22 pre-order, LG Uplus launched a U+Shop exclusive plan that offers Netflix (Basic) and YouTube Premium together, and prepared various promotions themed around the keyword '22'.

During the Galaxy S22 pre-order period, LG Uplus will hold an event giving away department store gift certificates worth 1 million KRW to 22 people daily (a total of 176 people over 8 days). Customers who win the roulette during the pre-order period, activate their device, and subscribe to the ‘U+ Together’ plan for friends and family can receive the prize. Additionally, a total of 1,500 winners from the roulette will receive Galaxy S22 exclusive accessories featuring LG Uplus’s character ‘Mooneo’.

On the official online mall ‘U+Shop’, an event will be held to give away prizes worth a total of 100 million KRW through a lottery. In partnership with the limited edition trading platform Cream, pre-order customers will be entered into a draw to win prizes such as Chanel card holders, Prada bucket hats, and limited edition sneakers. There will also be an instant win event where customers can check if they have won prizes like a PlayStation 5 or Galaxy Tab S8. The first 2,022 customers who pre-order through U+Shop will receive a service that delivers the product on the day of activation.
