Samsung announces Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition, now with Faux-Leather
When the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 was released with a faux-leather back cover, many wondered whether consumers would appreciate the departure from Samsung‘s normally plastic affairs. Well, they have, or at least Samsung believes they have, as Samsung has just announced the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition, and also the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini Black Edition, which replaces the original plastic back cover with a faux-leather one a la the Note 3.
Predictably, there are no hardware differences between the original devices and these Black Editions, besides the back cover of course, though according to the product page, they are being shipped with Android 4.2.2 instead of the latest Android 4.3 version. The devices were spotted on Samsung Russia’s website and are being offered for $660 USD for the Galaxy S4 and $460 for the Galaxy S4 Mini; there are no additional details yet on whether the Black Edition line will make it anywhere else internationally or if there will be any other colours offered.
What do you think about these new Black Editions and their faux-leather backs? Do you prefer this over the original plastic back covers? Let us know in the comments below.
