The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge gets a new Coral Blue color as the company aims to make its flagship smartphone as attractive to as many customers as possible. That's because Samsung permanently ended its production of the Galaxy Note 7, which has been linked to numerous fire and exploding incidents.

Now, Samsung has announced that it will release a Galaxy S7 Edge with a Coral Blue color which started on the Galaxy Note 7 before it became an exploding failure. The Coral Blue will first appear in Taiwan and Singapore this week.
In particular, the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge in Coral Blue with 4G+ will be released in November 1 in Taiwan and November 5 in Singapore. The S7 Edge phones, which will be released in both countries, appear to be the 32 GB versions.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge in Coral Blue, which is to be available in Singapore will have a price of 1090 Singapore dollars, which is around 788 U.S. dollars. In Taiwan, it is priced at 24,900 New Taiwan dollars, which is equivalent to 787 U.S. dollars.
Coral Blue was a very popular color for Note 7 users; a striking metallic blue hue. While this version will appear in some countries in Asia, Samsung has been mum on its release in the United States or in other parts of the world.
