 Hey, it's Chris Welch with The Verge, and this is Samsung's Galaxy S7 Edge special edition for the Olympic Games. It's being given to all the athletes taking part in the upcoming Summer Games. So whether they seize their dreams and come away with a gold medal or go home empty-handed, they're all guaranteed a pretty sweet phone at least. People like you and I can get it too, starting next month at Best Buy. Now last month we covered the Batman S7 Edge, and that was another special edition. That one was very cool. It has sleek, all-black design and a Batman logo on the back. Samsung also tossed in a custom Gear VR. This Olympics version is way more colorful though. The hardware buttons match the different colors of the Olympic rings. It looks a bit strange at first, but it makes more sense when you realize just what this phone commemorates. The home button and the earpiece are yellow, the power button is red, volume controls are green, and the camera bezel is blue. And you've also got those same rings on the back of the phone. Samsung's also customized the software so it stays true to that theme of the Olympics. Inside it's the same S7 Edge as before. It's got a Snapdragon 820 processor, 4 gigs of RAM, a great 12 megapixel camera, 32 gigs of storage, and a microSD slot. It's still waterproof, and this is the unlocked version, so it should work on all the biggest US networks. Sadly, there's no Gear VR this time. Samsung put that in the Batman bundle, but it's not here. Maybe these updates are just too busy training to get lost in virtual reality, or Samsung doesn't want to mess up their eyesight, but it's just not in the box. But you do get this nice carrying bag to store the phone in if you're traveling or just want to keep it safe. We don't have the final price just yet, but it'll probably cost around the same as the regular S7 Edge, which is pretty expensive. And that's pretty much all there is to say. This is just a fresh coat of paint for the S7 Edge, and free swag for people who have worked their whole lives to reach the Olympics. The Summer Games start August 5th, and this phone is coming to Best Buy later on in August.
