Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018), the world’s first smartphone with four cameras on the back, will be made available through Amazon India and Flipkart. Both e-commerce sites have created a landing page for the Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018), meaning the premium mid-end smartphone will be sold through Amazon India as well as Flipkart. The South Korean major has already sent media invites for the launch event, which will be taking place in Gurugram on November 20. The Galaxy A9 (2018) made its global debut in Malaysia last month.

As we have mentioned before, Samsung Galaxy A9 (2018) will be made available through both Amazon India and Flipkart. Interested customers can register on Amazon India and get notified of updates regarding launch via the retailer’s “Notify Me” option. Similarly, Flipkart has also put out a teaser image and it confirms the availability of the camera-centric smartphone on the platform.

It’s no surprise to see why consumers will be able to purchase the device through both Amazon and Flipkart in India. Samsung sees the Galaxy A9 (2018) as a radical smartphone, which has not one, not two, not three, but four cameras on the device. This is the world’s first smartphone with four cameras and perhaps the reason why Samsung wanted a wider availability of the device in India. We expect the smartphone to be available in the retail market as well, given Samsung’s hold on India’s offline market.
