The first Galaxy S II phone to hit a US carrier is here. Sprint’s Epic 4G Touch takes Samsung’s GS2 formula and stretches it out across a massive 4.52-inch Super AMOLED display. Packed to the gills with technology including a dual core 1.2GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, an 8MP camera with flash and 1080p HD video capture, a front-facing 2MP camera, and 4G (WiMax) and Wi-Fi connectivity, Epic 4G Touch is set to hit Sprint stores September 16 for $199.99 on contract. Though it’s already up for pre-order from WalMart and Wirefly for less dough than that.

Is there such a thing as too much of a good thing? Let’s find out.
