Original article, April 25, 2019 (7:14AM ET): We’ve known for a while now that Verizon will bring the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G to the U.S. as a timed exclusive. Now, the company has launched pre-orders for the 5G smartphone, so what will the damage be?

The Samsung Galaxy S10 5G has a starting price of $1,299 or $54.16 per month for two years, according to the pre-order page. This gets you a 256GB model, while the 512GB variant will set you back $1,399 or $58.33 per month for two years.

Samsung’s 5G phone will be available in Majestic Black and Crown Silver — those hoping for green, blue or even yellow colorways are out of luck. Verizon’s pre-order page also notes that the phone will be delivered by May 16, 2019, while an official press release confirms it’ll be available in-store by that date as well.
