That dual-core monster of a device, the Samsung Galaxy S II, announced at MWC, has received an official release date of March 31st and a price tag of £599.99 (~$960) from UK's play.com site. Keep in mind this is subject to change as most pre-release prices can do so. We'll just have to be patient, as time will tell. The Galaxy S II is a device that I have had in my crosshairs for quite some time now. The US of A is hoping for a graceful visit from this powerhouse of a device, soon. I would love to see Samsung do what they did with the original Galaxy S line, bringing it to each carrier in the US. I'll be crossing my fingers. If you're in the UK and you've been waiting generously for the device to arrive, then head on over to play.co.uk for your pre-order. And hit the break for a list of special features and specs of the device so you can get your wow factor on.

Exynos 4210 (1.2Ghz Dual-core) and Tegra 2 for GPU :)) + 1GB Mobile DDR or possibly Mobile DDR2.This is gonna be the best phone ever made, and the price is not bad it is quite fair.I can’t wait to see it in action, btw its goning to have “console-quality gaming” :>, cheers
Wow, that is about 700 euro! That thing must fly, wash and make a breakfast for that bunch of money! Much more reasonable is to expect the price to be around £400 (~460 euro) which is the initial price point of Galaxy S!
Too costly. From the specs, it does not see to be 4G. Is it a 3G phone?
I’ll pass on the Samsung os update headache.
after look at Play.com: It’ s for 16GB one …
Price is for 16GB or 32GB internal memory version?
Way too expensive for a Samsung.
