A “top executive” at a leading mobile carrier in Europe told the Korea Times that there had been “15 million [pre-orders] of the S6 and five million of the S6 Edge from mobile carriers” worldwide.

The Netherlands was the first country to start taking pre-orders for the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, which will cost 699 Euros and 849 Euros respectively (32GB models). Samsung is offering more incentives than ever – such as $200 Samsung headphones – for new customers to pick up a Galaxy following a sales slump in 2014.

The Galaxy S6 Edge And Galaxy S6 will be available in 20 countries – including the US and UK – from April 10th, with pre-orders starting April 1 for least one carrier (Verizon). Are you going to pre-order one of the new Galaxies? Which do you prefer?
