While AT&T's been flaunting a rather patriotic red, white and blue Galaxy S III lineup since launch, the carrier's exclusive Garnet Red handset's been rather elusive so far, with pre-orders starting July 15 and deliveries expected July 29. If you've been eying Samsung's blood red $199 flagship, you'll be happy to know that we received our review unit yesterday and snapped a bunch of pictures, including comparison shots with the white and blue models. The phone is identical to its siblings other than the burgundy screen bezel and back cover, and the gunmetal rim running along its edge. It's a pretty gorgeous color scheme that's sure to attract vampires everywhere. Still unsure? Peek at our hands-on gallery below, then sound off in the comments.

I’ve already ordered my GSIII in red, so I just have to be patient! I was close to getting the white phone, but decided against it since I got news of the new color. A few of my Dish coworkers rushed to get the first ones that were available, and so far they love how the phone and network performs. I like streaming live and recorded TV to my current phone using the Sling Adapter that I have connected to my Hopper at home, so I’m sure I will love this phone. I’ve used the Dish Remote Access app on my phone for a long time, and I’m looking forward to using it on my new Galaxy. It’ll be nice to catch up on the Olympics wherever I am.
