The Samsung Galaxy S II is getting closer and closer to U.S. soil. On Monday, a leaked screenshot revealed that Canada's Bell will be launching the sizzling hot handset on July 14th. The screenshot did not divulge any news on pricing. This discovery follows by a few days a tweet from fellow Canadian carrier SaskTel saying that the highly anticipated device will be available from the mobile operator some time next month.
Last month, online retailer Wireless Xcessories Group had listed on its web site a silicon case on sale for the Samsung Galaxy S II. As we reported, the listing leaked out the news that the Galaxy S II will be rolled out to three of the top four carriers in the U.S. as the Verizon Function, the AT&T Attain and the Sprint Within.
For a brief moment last week it seemed that a Verizon spokeswoman had confirmed the Samsung Galaxy S II for a July release, but before the celebration could start, Verizon backtracked saying that the spokeswoman was mistaken and was really talking about the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet.
Despite that bit of misinformation, there is no denying that we are getting closer and closer to the official introduction of the Samsung Galaxy S II in the States. Many U.S. cell phone fans have already mentally decided that their next phone will be this beast and are simply waiting for carrier availability, launch dates and pricing.
