The Samsung Galaxy S II has been caught on video again and is out in the wild. This is being called the Galaxy S II X and is headed to TELUS. What you see in the pictures and video below is the same version that will hit the U.S on T-Mobile dubbed the Hercules. We've seen this bad boy back in August posing with some benchmarks and it's safe to assume it will be headed to TELUS and T-Mobile USA here very soon -- I can't wait to get my hands on it.
