Samsung had launched the Ice Blue color variant for the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus in China and South Korea and now the color option is making its way to other regions as the ‘Polaris Blue’ color.
The Polaris Blue Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus will be available for purchase in Germany from early December for a price of €849 (approximately $960) and €949 (approximately $1,079) for the S9 and S9 Plus respectively.
The new Polaris Blue color is the sixth color for the Galaxy S9 series, joining the list of Coral Blue, Lilac Purple, Midnight Black, Sunrise Gold, and Titanium Gray. The Polaris Blue color has a dual-tone finish with blue color in the upper-half and silver-white shade in the lower half, creating a gradient pattern.
