Both smartphones released with new faux-leather backs

Samsung Galaxy S4 and S4 Mini Black Edition announced

Samsung has unveiled a Black Edition of its flagship Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S4 Mini smartphones.

The new editions replace the plastic rear of the smartphones with black-coloured faux-leather backs, complete with leather grain and mock stitching.

Apart from the new black back, the Galaxy S4 is identical to the original, with a 5-inch HD display, Snapdragon 600 processor and 13MP camera.

The Galaxy S4 Mini also keeps all of its original specs.

Both devices will be available in Russia from next week, with the S4 setting consumers back 22,990 roubles (£400).

There is no word yet on a global release.
