Samsung Galaxy S4 Crystal Edition with Swarovski elements goes on sale in Thailand

by Sayan Chakravarty

Samsung every once in a while launches a blinged out version of one of its smartphones to give it an image makeover. Following up the launch of the Galaxy S III mini Crystal Edition in Germany last month, Samsung has released a Crystal Edition of the Galaxy S4 which has gone up for sale in Thailand this time round. Similar to the Galaxy SIII mini Crystal Edition, the blinged out Galaxy S4 has Swarovski crystal elements studded on the back-plate. As far as the specifications, the Crystal Edition is based on the Exynos variant of the Galaxy S4.

It will be available in limited numbers (3,500 units) and has gone up for sale only in Thailand. There’s very little chance that this device will make its way to other parts of the world. It is priced at 20,300 baht ($630 approximately), which is about $90 dearer than the standard variant. But considering that Swarovski crystals are studded in an endearing pattern, the extra price seems justified.
