Galaxy S II 4G in Canada at Virgin Mobile on July 14th

We already knew that wireless carrier Virgin Mobile was on its way to bring to the market in Canada the new Android-based flagship from Samsung, namely the Galaxy S II, but no specific info on when that might happen emerged until now.

Virgin Mobile announced only a few days ago that it would add the handset to its offering as the Galaxy S II 4G, but specific details on the availability of this device and on its pricing were not made official.

However, a recently leaked screenshot of an internal document from the wireless operator seems to have
changed that.

According to the leak, the Samsung Galaxy S II 4G should be released on shelves at the mobile phone carrier on July 14th.

The company seems to have put in place a specific program to see which of its employees will sell the most Galaxy S II smartphones, something that might actually prove to be an easy task.

The handset comes with appealing looks and with impressive hardware packed inside, which should make it a top seller in no time.

What remains to be seen is the cost that it will come with. According to MobileSyrup, the handset might go for $599.95 off contract, while being set to land at SaskTel for only $79.99 on a three-year contract.

With a dual-core application processor packed inside, clocked in at 1.2GHz, the Samsung Galaxy S II 4G will certainly be worth every penny.

To that, we might add the 4.3-inch touchscreen display on the front, along with a camera to enable video calling, and an 8-megapixel photo snapper on the back with support for HD video recording.
