Samsung on Monday officially announced the Galaxy S8 Active, a more rugged version of its flagship Galaxy S8 smartphone, businessinsider.com has reported.
The phone will be exclusive to AT&T, but only “for a limited time.” It’ll be available to pre-order on August 8, with a full release on August 11.
AT&T says the device will cost $28.34 a month in a 30-month payment plan, which comes out to about $850. AT&T did not immediately respond to a request for a comment on how much the device will cost outright.
As various leaks had suggested, the Galaxy S8 Active ditches the curved sides of the standard Galaxy S8 for a flatter, more traditional design. The display itself is the same as before — which is a good thing — but the bezels around it are more pronounced.
