Samsung announced the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition last month, and now the handset is available in the UK through mobile retailer Phones 4U.
Phones 4U are offering the Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition on various contracts with a number of the mobile carriers in the UK. Prices start at £29 per month, and it is also available SIM-free for £499.98. This provides flexibility for customers who prefer to choose their own network or switch between networks without being tied to a contract.
Design and Build Quality
The Samsung Galaxy S4 Black Edition comes with a faux leather back, just like the Galaxy Note 3, which gives it a premium feel and a more sophisticated look compared to the standard plastic back of the original S4. The black color scheme extends to the front and sides of the device, providing a sleek and unified appearance. This design choice not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also offers a better grip, reducing the chances of accidental drops.
Specifications and Features
The handset features the same specifications as the original Samsung Galaxy S4, which include a 5-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels. This high-resolution display ensures vibrant colors and sharp images, making it ideal for watching videos, playing games, and browsing the web.
Under the hood, the Galaxy S4 Black Edition is powered by a 1.9 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor, coupled with 2GB of RAM. This combination ensures smooth performance and the ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously without any lag. The device also comes with 16GB of internal storage, which can be expanded up to 64GB via a microSD card, providing ample space for apps, photos, and videos.
The Galaxy S4 Black Edition features a 13-megapixel rear camera with autofocus and LED flash, capable of capturing high-quality photos and Full HD videos. The front-facing 2-megapixel camera is perfect for selfies and video calls. Additionally, the device includes a range of camera features such as Dual Shot, Drama Shot, and Sound & Shot, allowing users to get creative with their photography.
In terms of connectivity, the Galaxy S4 Black Edition supports 4G LTE, ensuring fast internet speeds for browsing and streaming. Other connectivity options include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC, and GPS. The device also comes with a 2600mAh removable battery, which provides a full day of usage on a single charge.
The Galaxy S4 Black Edition runs on Android 4.4 KitKat, with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI on top. This user interface offers a range of additional features and customization options, such as Multi-Window, which allows users to run two apps simultaneously on the screen, and Smart Stay, which keeps the screen on as long as the user is looking at it.
