Samsung’s Batman-Themed Galaxy S7 Edge Injustice Edition Announced, Here Are The Details

A series of suggestive tweets containing Batman-themed imagery from the official @SamsungMobile has had comic book fans in a spin over the last few days. Was the South Korean smartphone giant simply looking to get the Internet in a spin with a view to promoting the anniversary of the Injustice: Gods Among Us game? Or, as we predicted, was there something more to it, such as a Batman-themed Galaxy device? An official Samsung announcement has now confirmed what we all were hoping for; Samsung and Warner Bros. Interactive have teamed up to produce and release a limited edition Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Injustice Edition.

The very idea of a sleek, mysterious looking Galaxy S7 Edge emblazoned with the Batman logo is more than enough to raise excitement levels within most of us. After all, it’s a Batman-themed phone complete with a gorgeous gold Batman logo on the rear. How cool is that?

However, as you might expect from two behemoth companies, Samsung and Warner Bros. appear to have gone a few steps further than simply taking the phone and slapping a Batman logo on its back. In select territories it looks as though consumers will also get a Gear VR headset, as well as Injustice game credit and Oculus VR content vouchers.

Additionally, if you are difficult to please and expect a little more DC-goodness for your dollar, then it also looks as though the limited release package will come with a real gold-plated Batarang, as well as a very awesome rubber Galaxy S7 Edge case that has been designed and modeled based on Batman’s legendary body armor.
