GSM Arena reported that Samsung may be looking to make more sales from the Samsung S7 Glossy Black, after they suffered giant losses with the failed Galaxy Note 7. The company recently featured the Blue Coral color from the Note 7 to the Galaxy S7 edge.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 Glossy Black, as well as more hues may be introduced in the following months to potentially rake in more sale. It is still uncertain whether the Samsung Galaxy S7 Glossy Black will launch globally or limited only to a few markets. The current Onyx Black Samsung Galaxy S7 may be described by users as a mix of matte and shiny, with its multilayer nanocoating.
The handset gets shinier with a touch of light, but users may still be opting for an official glossy version with the Samsung Galaxy S7 Glossy Black. Since Apple has both Jet Black and Black tones for the iPhone 7, Samsung may be opting for the same approach to provide more options for users, especially since the Note 7 is gone.
