After the S8 came out w/ the original color options, how much time went by before other colors were introduced in the US?
 
Sorry meant to put this in the S8 section, but I guess in a sense it relates to when should we expect to see the blue or gold version for the Note 8.
 
So reading Verge article and Mr. Mobile video mentioned too...

only Black or Orchid Gray for US models and only in 64GB.

You'd have to think at some point they release more colors?

Here's something of interest to note, no pun intended..

S8/S8+ US Release Date: April

Coral Blue S8 US Release Date: July

Idk the whole story about the Gold & Silver, except that Silver might be online exclusive?

That makes it seem to me like anybody that wants a dif color other than Black or Orchid Grey will have to wait a few months.

I could be wrong this is just what I'm trying to figure out by trying to add things up & there's probably some more info out there that idk about that others could help w/.

But it looks like it's Orchid Grey for me Donm.
 
Not a fan of either, I'll be waiting. Worst case I get an S8/S8+ and wait on Note 9.
 
Orchid Gray color has been changed? I think I saw someone else besides Erica mention this (edit) and in the video she DOES have an S8+ for comparison (at the 20 second mark) and IMO it looks blah.

I have to say a lot of pictures I saw in the event I wonder if they just had bad lighting for filming because the new Blue looked a flat to me. The gold was looking like a better third option for US than the new blue.

And if you want it unlocked, you can only get it in Black for now, though Samsung states an Orchid Grey one is "Coming Soon" (see below)

Is it funny that I can tell who the reviewer is by their hands? LOL
 
I took some photos of the Note 8 next to the S8 in orchid grey. I definitely prefer the S8's coloring.

Agreed. The S8 orchid grey looks way better IMO. Too bad. I thought about getting orchid grey this time around but not-ne-more.
 
I'm surprised they have gold here in the UK. I thought we were going to to get black and blue. Was happy to see gold which is the colour I'm going with. It's the most 'girly' colour. I already have the iPhone 7 plus and iPad Pro in rose gold so I'm not mad that there is no pink gold option this year.
