Samsung Galaxy S7 Pink Gold edition

With the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge reaching its half-year anniversary, Samsung has teamed up with Best Buy to launch a ‘Pink Gold’ variant of the handsets in the United States. Samsung had first launched the Pink Gold variant of its flagship handsets in South Korea earlier this year.

Unlike the new Coral Blue color for the Galaxy Note 7, the ‘Pink Gold’ color does not really look stellar on the S7 and S7 edge, especially with their big black and curved AMOLED displays. Nonetheless, it is likely that this new color option will appeal to the females who tend to favor the pink shade.

The Galaxy S7 and S7 edge will be sold unlocked through Best Buy meaning you will have to buy it at their full retail price. This means that you are looking at around $680 for the Galaxy S7 and around $800 for its edge variant. To sweeten the deal though, Best Buy is throwing a $150 gift card with the handset. The unlocked handset will work with all the four major US carriers — Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T, and since its unlocked, it comes with less bloat and will receive quicker updates.
