Samsung just announced a flashy pink Galaxy S8+ variant, and you can't have it
It's called "Rose Pink," and is pretty much what you'd expect from such a name: there's no muted color cop-outs here; just your regular, bright pink. And in case it isn't obvious, Samsung is primarily targeting the female part of the population, a fact it makes sure to mention in the press release as well.
But if the article's title hasn't already clued you in, there's a bit of a catch: this new variant has, at least for now, only been announced for the Taiwan market. Also, calling it an S8 color variant is a bit of a lie, seeing as the option is actually exclusive to the larger S8+ model.
However, it's worth noting that this is not the company's first foray into bright pink smartphones: last year saw the release of a pink Galaxy S7 variant, which, too, was a market exclusive, but limited to South Korea instead. And even though bright colors such as this one tend to be a bit controversial among users, we're still hoping the pink S8+ variant does well enough in Taiwan for Samsung to consider putting it out in the rest of the world. Options are never a bad thing, after all.
