Google’s latest Android phone, the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, will launch in Europe on 17 November, Samsung and Amazon have confirmed.
The phone is not probable to appear in America until the week after at the earliest. According to Amazon, it will retail for £549, which is £150 more than Samsung’s current flagship, the SII.
The Galaxy Nexus will be the first Android handset to run Ice Cream Sandwich, the codename for Google Android 4.0. It will feature a 4.6” screen, made possible in a smaller form factor in part by the removal of hardware buttons from the front.
At a recent Samsung European launch for the Galaxy Note electronic notepad, the Galaxy Nexus was also demonstrated, and the company confirmed that the European launch will lead the device going on sale in America and the rest of the world.
The Galaxy Nexus was due to be unveiled in San Diego at the beginning of October, but its launch was postponed by a week and instead took place in Hong Kong due to the death of Steve Jobs.
