Blue Coral Samsung Galaxy S7 edge officially coming to major US carriers

Samsung today announced that, starting November 1, it's going to launch a Blue Coral Galaxy S7 edge in the US and other "selected markets around the globe." Of course, we already knew that the Blue Coral S7 edge was headed to some countries, so the real news here is that the handset is officially coming to the US.

Right now, Samsung doesn't have an exact release date for this new Galaxy S7 edge, but it says the smartphone will be sold by major US carriers - possibly all four of them: Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint. We expect prices to be similar to those of the Galaxy S7 edge variants that are currently widely available to buy (Black, Silver, Gold, and Pink Gold).

Blue Coral is a color that Samsung first introduced back in August with the Galaxy Note 7. Since the Note 7 has been pulled off the shelves and is no longer in production, the existence of a Blue Coral S7 edge certainly makes sense.

We assume that, at launch, the Blue Coral Galaxy S7 edge will run Android Marshmallow, as Samsung is probably not ready to bring Android 7.0 Nougat to any of its devices (although it did start testing Nougat builds on the S7).
