Samsung is no stranger to partnering with major global brands and personalities for its flagships. For its latest S20 series, it has partnered with popular K-Pop band BTS to create a special variant that is purple in colour.
This collaboration provides BTS fans across the world the opportunity to get special and limited edition products from Samsung. As of now, the products are available only in South Korea. The Galaxy S20 Plus BTS Edition features a new design with purple glass and metal exterior while the Galaxy Buds Plus BTS Edition also comes in purple, which is the band’s colour scheme. The iconic purple hearts are also prominently present.
