A few days ago, Samsung teased the launch of the Lime version of the Galaxy S23 in India. Today, the company announced it will be available in the country starting tomorrow (May 16, 2023) from 12 PM. While the company hasn't revealed its pricing yet, it is expected to cost similar to other color variants of the Galaxy S23.
The Galaxy S23 costs INR 74,999 in India for the 128GB version and INR 79,999 for the 256GB version. Currently, the phone is available in four colors: Cream, Green, Lavender, and Phanto, Black. Lime will be the phone's fifth color option in India. It is unclear if the Galaxy S23+ will also get the Lime version in India.
For the first time, Samsung launched online-exclusive colors of a Galaxy S series smartphone in India, starting with the Galaxy S23 Ultra. On top of the standard color options (Cream, Green, and Phantom Black), the flagship phone is available in Graphite, Lime, Red, and Sky Blue colors from Samsung's website.
