Samsung Galaxy S IV has already been declared the “new top-rated smartphone,” but it seems that telecom partners are still looking to make the phone more attractive to lure more customers. Therefore, as part of this effort, AT&T made it known on Thursday, May 23rd that it will be exclusively providing the Galaxy S IV to its customer from June 14th in a brand new colour: Aurora Red. The carrier also announced that the new colour will only be offered in the 16GB edition of the S IV and customers will be able to get it for a price of $199 on a two years agreement. AT&T will start accepting pre-orders of the exclusive Aurora Red Galaxy S IV from Friday, May 24th. The carrier has made the announcement at a crucial time, as Verizon has made the Galaxy S IV available from Thursday.
On the other hand, Aurora Red is not the only new colour in which we will see the Galaxy S IV, as Samsung is looking to roll out the smartphone in few other special colours during the summer including Brown Autumn, Purple Mirage and Blue Arctic. See the full details below in the press release from AT&T regarding the exclusive Aurora Red Galaxy S IV:
“Starting on June 14th, in-stores and online, AT&T customers will be able to purchase the 16 GB Samsung Galaxy S 4 in Aurora Red. This new colour is available exclusively from AT&T for $199.99 with a two-year agreement. Even more exciting – beginning May 24, customers will be able to pre-order the red Galaxy S 4 at www.att.com/galaxys4 or from any AT&T company-owned retail store.
The Galaxy S 4 uniquely makes advanced technologies and features easy to use by integrating them into the way individuals use their phones every day.

With WatchOn and the built-in IR blaster, the Galaxy S 4 also functions as a remote control for home theatre equipment.
The Galaxy S 4 features a 13-megapixel rear facing camera that records video in full HD at 30 frames per second. There is also a 2-megapixel front facing camera that lets you capture special moments in unique and new ways with the Dual Camera shooting mode. Dual Camera mode takes pictures with both rear and front cameras enabling the photographer to be in the shot as well.
