With the simultaneous launch of three Galaxy S II phones in one event, a family portrait is a given. Well, except T-Mobile decided that its variant isn’t quite ready for the limelight just yet, so with that one we could only get a side-by-side shot with our very own European version outside the acrylic box.

It looks a bit like the T-Mobile-bound Hercules, but not quite as curvy around the edges. It could be Sprint’s Epic 4G Touch or perhaps an as yet unseen model destined for AT&T or Verizon. Check out the full promo video after the break.
