Despite the Samsung Galaxy S5 release date being just a matter of weeks away, the Korean manufacturer has refreshed its outgoing flagship phone as the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition is officially launched.
Formally unveiled alongside a Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Black Edition, the revised S4 has now been confirmed for launch in the UK after being unveiled to Russian consumers late last month.
Despite landing as a dedicated new model edition, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition has few differences from the standard flagship phone which launched last April. Samsung has claimed the marginally altered handset is part of its "commitment to deliver innovative technology with premium design choices."
Ditching the gloss plastic rear that has been the subject of much criticism, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition features an equally unappealing soft-touch, faux leather rear similar to that found on the oversized and stylus hosting Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
Aside from the leather effect rear, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition’s only other notable difference is a suite of eight, fittingly dark themed wallpapers and lock screens.
Like the standard S4 offering, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition runs a 5-inch, 1080p Full HD display alongside a 1.9GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage.
With a 13-megapixel rear-mounted camera and integrated 4G and NFC connectivity options, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition specs sheet is rounded off by a 2600mAh Lithium-Ion battery at Google’s Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean OS.
With only Russian pricing having been confirmed at this point, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition will set wannabe owners back 22,990 roubles (£400). Samsung has stated that UK release dates and pricing will follow "in due course."
