According to online retailers, the Samsung Galaxy S Advance will start shipping in just five days’ time.

Samsung’s latest handset the Galaxy S Advance has been priced for the UK, and has also been given a release date.

This information comes from SIM free retailer Mobile Fun, who have added the handset to their coming soon page with a price tag of £329.95. It also stated a release date of the 6^th February. If this information is correct then those who have pre ordered the handset will receive them in just five days’ time.

However, these details have yet to be confirmed by Samsung.

Despite this, a price of £350 for a SIM free seems decent when you take the specifications into account. These include a 1GHz dual core processor which will be powering a 4 inch WVGA AMOLED touchscreen.

Users of the Galaxy S Advance will also find Google’s Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) operating system, a 5 megapixel rear facing camera with HD video, a front facing camera for video calling, a 1500mAH battery for long lasting life and WiFi and HSDPA connectivity.

T-Mobile have also announced that they will be selling the Samsung Galaxy S Advance, along with the network 3. Unfortunately they have yet to announce when the handset will be available for purchase and the pricing.

However it is presumed that it will be launched on T-Mobile’s Full Monty price plan. If this is true then you will be able to get yourself a free handset for £36 per month for 24 months which will also get you unlimited texts, 2000 any network minutes, unlimited T-Mobile to T-Mobile calls and unlimited monthly Internet data.
