Samsung has aimed high for the rich and/or gullible, launching their "Black Edition" Galaxy S4 in the UK for a whopping £499.
The company first confirmed the device last month, but did not disclose which markets would see it.
Available now exclusively in the UK through Phones4U, the unlocked unit will sell at a massive premium (about $825 USD) compared to the standard S4, despite having the same exact specs. The S4 sells, on average, for £325.80 ($540 USD) in the region.
Having the same internal specs, the Black Edition is different in that it has a black faux leather back cover, black accessories, and exclusive wallpapers and music tracks pre-installed.
The device goes on sale on April 11th.
