Verizon Added a Gold Note 5 - Why only 32GB?

[Eddster]

What's the deal with Verizon ONLY offering the 64GB option in Sapphire Black? I have been a long time Verizon customer, but with iPhones. I never had a problem with them because Apple obviously forbids them from tampering with iPhones, so I still had all features/options available to me on Verizon just like on any other carrier. Unfortunately Android is a different story. NOW I see why people get so frustrated with them. Not only do they remove useful features from Android phones, what the heck is up with not offering a 64GB storage option for the Gold and/or white Note 5? That just seems really arbitrary to me. I said I would never willingly give up my Verizon unlimited data plan, but stuff like this combined with the $20 unlimited data fee hike has me ready to just ditch them all together. I just picked up an AT&T unlimited data line off eBay and got my 64GB Gold Note 5 delivered today. So now I have an unlimited plan with faster data speeds, for less money (now that Verizon has raised the rates). Time to port my Verizon number to AT&T and be done with it.

I also don't understand the logic for offering only 32GB in the gold and white versions. Those are not my color choices, and I chose a 64GB model; but why restrict color choice by restricting storage capacity options?

Is Verizon the only US carrier that limits color and storage choices?

Yep, looks like Verizon is the only one. AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile all offer the gold in 64GB.
