One of the most popular phones of Android for this year, the Samsung Galaxy S II, is hitting all major South Korean carriers as we speak. Samsung says the worldwide rollout will be about in 120 countries, similar to what the company did with the Samsung Galaxy S last year.
Also, a few creative commercials are already warming up the crowds for the amazing possibilities of the handset, which you can see demoed in our preview of the Samsung Galaxy S II.
The burning question is, of course, when will the Samsung Galaxy S II trickle down to the US? UK retailers are listing the first batches to arrive on Monday, with May 3rd the first dispatch date, so if you are dying to have it, nothing stops you to pay $700 retail plus shipping to the US.
The Samsung Galaxy S II, however, already cleared the FCC with AT&T frequencies more than a month ago, so we should expect to see it on US soil very soon. Mum's the word about Verizon or the other carriers, but considering the simultaneous launch event on all four carriers for the first edition last year, Sammy could very well pull off the same stunt.
