Iron Man fans are sure to be among the first to try to get their hands on Samsung's new version of the Galaxy S6 Edge smartphone.
The South Korean tech giant revealed a teaser image on Twitter of what appears to be a special edition of the phone inspired by the Armored Avenger, according to TechCrunch. Instead of showing an actual phone, the teaser shows a dark red box with Iron Man's face in the center, and the box is open just enough to show bright yellow light coming from inside.
The box reads "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge" on the lower left side, "Avengers: In Cinemas Now" on the lower right side and "Coming Soon" on the top, which indicates that Marvel fans won't have to wait too long to get their hands on the new phone, Tech Times reported.
Samsung also provided a disclaimer, saying the limited edition phone's availability may "differ by region," which hints at the device being sold across the globe. Such a move would benefit Samsung, as the company usually only sells its special edition products in Asia.
The teaser follows about two weeks after Samsung told Korea Times that it would treat its customers with Iron Man editions of the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge by the end of this month.
"The color of the new Iron Man phones will be red," said Lee Young-hee, head of marketing at Samsung's mobile division. "We will decide on the details soon after discussions with Marvel Studio. It will be released either at the end of May or early June."
Samsung has yet to release an official image of the Galaxy S6 Edge Iron Man Edition, but it will most likely sport the same red and gold found on Tony Stark's suit of armor, Comicbook.com reported.
A successful launch of the new phone may lead to the development of phones designed after Marvel's other superheroes.
