The BTS editions of Samsung's latest products were announced on 15 June, with pre-sales starting all across the region through WeVerse on the same day and through Samsung's online shop from 19 June. However, due to an overwhelming response and purchases from the ARMY, Samsung has brought back pre-sales and even opened it for more countries. The phone will be widely available from 9 July, marking the 7th anniversary of the BTS ARMY.

This announcement has caused quite the commotion on social media, with many fans scurrying to get in their purchases. Check out what some fans had to say below:
