Note 8 Colors

[Nickerz]

I heard certain colors are limited to the US and I really like the Blue but I don't think I can get this one. Any ideas to get the color you want with AT&T in the US?

Midnight black or Orchid gray is your only options LOL

Yup, it depends on where you're getting it, but in the US the only colors available are Black and Gray. Unlocked is only available in black.

About a month ago, I read an article saying that other colors will eventually be available here in the US but that will be several months down the road. It's like how they did the blue S7 Edge. It wasn't available in the US until months after release.

I would of bought a Blue Note8. Since I was not waiting I bought the black Note8, Samsung Rugged case in blue, and a Note7 Blue S-pen from ebay. This is working for me.

I sucks as Samsung tried hard to be like Apple, this is one area they are not like Apple (making all the colors available from day 1 worldwide).

Apple having all colours/versions available worldwide day 1.....lol...

Hey, good idea! I'd like a different color stylus at least. How much did it cost?

... Still would prefer a blue Note 8! C'Mon Samsung!

$7.69 total with free shipping from eBay. It was from a Note7.

Nice! So the S7 stylus is a direct fit for Note 8?

I was all set for the coral blue Note 7 which i liked but I'm not too fussed on the deep sea blue Note 8, but the blue Samsung Rugged case does look nice on the black phone in my opinion

I got the Orchid Grey on AT&T but I am mad at Samsung for being stupid and not having all colors available worldwide. Blue is my favorite color and I would have been all over that color if it was available. Also think it's stupid they wait to release it later on because then I lost my chance of getting it. They need to stop with these different releases and just release all colors day 1

It is. And although you can't put it in the pocket, it also works with the Tab S3 S-Pen (or most any S-Pen out there, for that matter, but without the added sensitivity levels for older models).

Pay a little more than retail, and import a Canadian Note 8 from NCIX. I did this, then flashed US unlocked firmware immediately. I use mine with Verizon and it works exactly like my old unlocked S7 Edge does; Samsung Pay works, I have VoLTE and CDMA calling/texting.

However, of course if you want quality product support you can cross your fingers and hope Samsung does the right thing and releases the Deep Sea Blue officially in the US (like they did Coral Blue S8).

Right now, it's Black and Orchid Gray (also unlocked -- Samsung and Best Buy are selling both colors unlocked now on their website).

I had the blue Note 7. Looking at this insipid orchid grey Note 8 just makes me sad, until I turn it over and use it

Haha me to was a little upset about not being able to get the blue . until I turned on my gray note 8 an all is well with the world now got a note an I'm good . one thing to note the gray note 8 an the gray s8 are not the same color

 

[Jewels81]

I wish they had the blue at preorder but oh well. I love my black note8. Maybe the note9 will come in blue

 

[pinkvikchick]

I was disappointed in my color choices through AT&T- I got the orchid gray and you know what? I kinda like it. It's got a sort of pearl silvery purpley look. All without being too girly so I can give it to Mr. Husband when something better shows up.

 

[IbeSasha]

I wanted the blue Note 8 too but settled on black. I put a Spigen Tough Armour in blue on mine which looks very attractive.

You can use a Note 4 Sylus, Note 8 and Note 12.2 stylus. You can even use a Microsoft Surface Pro Stylus.
