The sexiest version of the Samsung Galaxy S phone — Armani edition — is now available for purchase in the UK. That was actually more than a month, considering we’ve initially covered the Android smartphone in mid-November when we said it will be released just in time for the Christmas shopping season. Alas, it’s here now and there’s no need to cry over it.

Online retailer Phones4U is offering the Samsung-Armani product starting from free on steep-ish contracts that are measured in the 40s GBP. And while most folks won’t bother paying a premium for Giorgio’s signature, I’m sure there are others doing so as we speak.

Specs wise, the Samsung Giorgio Armani Galaxy S is identical to the original Galaxy S with only difference being in few design lines here and there like a “specially designed back panel that houses the battery.” In other words, expect the same 5-megapixel camera, HSPA and WiFi connectivity, 4-inch capacitive touchscreen (with Armani logo on top of it), Bluetooth 3.0, while Android is running the show.

And now it’s video time. A guy from Phones4U shows off the device. Enjoy.
