LG Velvet’s P37K Price Revealed Ahead of Launch

LG Velvet is slated to release tomorrow, however, the price and availability have been revealed already. The new Velvet device from the company will launch with a price of KRW 899,900 (~P37,000) while pre-orders will start from May 8 until 14 in South Korea. Apparently, there’s a hefty price to pay for that new premium design that features a curved display and raindrop camera module. But to make it a little less painful, LG is offering up to 50% discount through three major Korean carriers when owners will return their Velvet device…after two years.
