Samsung and Sprint were rumored several weeks ago to plan the launch of a new color flavor of the Galaxy S III smartphone, namely Purple, and a leaked press photo of the device appears set to offer users a view of the phone.

The photo, available courtesy of @Evleaks, shows the phone’s back cover, with Sprint’s logo on it, while also offering a clear view of the device’s front.

With the upcoming Purple flavor of the device, mobile phone users in the United States can choose from a nice range of color options for last year’s flagship smartphones, such as Black, Red, Blue, White, Grey and Brown, SamMobile notes.

What remains to be seen, however, is when exactly the new smartphone version is set to arrive on shelves, and whether it will sport a different price tag when compared to the already existing variants.
