Samsung Electronics have today announced they will be offering consumers a chance to get their hands on a new smartphone that should be immediately recognizable to those who keep up to speed with the industry. The Galaxy S II Plus was originally leaked back in August of last year, with South Korean based Samsung now officially introducing us to the device that is essentially an upgraded version of the extremely popular Galaxy S II.

Although it has become one of the most hotly contested industries in the world at the minute and is potentially an extremely stressful market for manufacturers to be involved in, consumers should be taking the opportunity to sit back and reap the rewards and device choice that is coming out of the smartphone industry. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to actually keep up with all of the different device launches and announcements, but generally speaking, the large manufacturers like Apple and Samsung make sure their products get noticed.

If you thought that the Galaxy S II was done and dusted as a brand for a wide variety of Android smartphones from Samsung in 2011, you’re going to be disappointed. After variants like (S II) LTE, HD LTE, Epic 4G Touch, Skyrocket, Captivate Glide, the Korean company is strongly rumored to be introducing one (hopefully) last variant called the Galaxy S II Plus. Check out the details regarding its looks and hardware specifications after the jump.
