Deepsea Blue Galaxy Note 8 coming to US, exclusive to Best Buy (sort of)

If you’ve been holding off buying the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 because it just isn’t blue enough then we’ve got some good news for you. Samsung announced today that the Deepsea Blue colorway will soon be available in the US, exclusively at Best Buy.

Samsung’s latest flagship phablet arrived in four colors at launch, but up until now US consumers have been restricted to just the Midnight Black and Orchid Gray finishes. While the wait continues for the Maple Gold version, the Deepsea Blue Note 8 will be up for order at Best Buy from November 16th. Just in time for Christmas!

Deepsea Blue is arguably the most exciting color option for this year’s Note, as it’s a brand new shade that replaces the lighter Coral Blue found on the Galaxy S8 and the ill-fated Note 7.

You can see the listing for yourself on Best Buy’s website, although you won’t be able to add it to your basket until later next month. When the offer goes fully live you’ll be able to pick up carrier-specific models on Sprint, AT&T or Verizon either online or in-store.

If you happen to be a T-Mobile customer, don’t worry, as Samsung and Best Buy’s definition of exclusive only extends to carrier-specific models. As such, you can grab an unlocked model for the regular price of $949 from Best Buy, or direct from Samsung’s official store.
