The Galaxy S6 may not officially launch until April 10, but if you’re a Sprint customer that pre-ordered a unit, you’ll be getting your unit a little early.
Sprint says that it’ll begin shipping Samsung Galaxy S6 pre-orders on Monday, April 6. It’s also worth noting that Sprint is still taking pre-orders for both the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge, so if you haven’t yet gotten a pre-order in, you can still do so and get your GS6 ahead of its public launch.
It’s not terribly uncommon to see carriers shipping out pre-orders of new phones before their public release date. That said, it’s still exciting for those folks that do pre-order, because they’re the ones that commit to the phones early and they end up being rewarded by getting the devices before they’re available in stores. And isn’t having a hot new device before most everyone else something that we all like to do?
