On the 19th, KT announced that pre-opening for the Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip6 would begin at nationwide KT stores and the official online mall KT.com from that day.


KT stated that as a result of pre-orders conducted from the 12th until the previous day, the reservation selection ratio for the Galaxy Z Flip6 exceeded half.


Reservations for the Galaxy Z Fold6 increased compared to the previous model. KT analyzed that customer preference grew due to the thinner and lighter design and performance optimized for high-spec games. For both models, the new color 'Silver Shadow' was the most popular.


KT is offering benefits to consumers who purchase the Galaxy Z Fold and Flip6 by the 10th. KT provides ▲ invitations to the Jarasum Music Festival (1,000 people, 2 tickets per person) ▲ movie tickets (2,000 people, 4 tickets per person) when purchased with family, Samsung home appliances (20 people), and 5-star hotel memberships (3 people) ▲ and for Ydeom customers aged 34 or younger, a raffle for Galaxy Watch Ultra and Galaxy Buds3 Pro (34 people). Detailed information and applications are available on the KT.com homepage and the MyKT app.


Additional benefits are available when purchasing through the official online mall KT.com. KT.com offers up to a 50,000 KRW device discount using membership points and a 5% cashback for customers using Samsung and BC cards. When trading in a used phone, a promotion provides up to an additional 300,000 KRW compensation on the used phone market price, along with a 30,000 KRW exclusive accessory coupon and partner coupon packs worth up to 210,000 KRW for GS25, Daiso, and others.


KT also introduces 'KT365 Phone Care Fold6·Flip6,' which provides both insurance benefits and new phone replacement benefits while using the Galaxy Z Fold and Flip6. It supports compensation for damage and loss of the Galaxy Z Fold and Flip6 as well as damage to smart devices. There is also a benefit to exchange for a new phone if the existing phone is returned after 36 months. Customers with a special plan (monthly 100,000 KRW or more) can use this service at a discounted rate of 2,770 KRW per month through membership point deductions, which is cheaper than the original price.



Depending on the card company’s conditions, partnership card benefits such as rate discounts, interest-free installments, and cashback are also provided. The 'Galaxy Trade-in Compensation' promotion offers up to an additional 200,000 KRW on top of the basic compensation amount depending on the Galaxy device model.
