Samsung Galaxy S21 colours: Which one is right for you?

The brand spanking new Samsung Galaxy S21 range is here and we're seeing some hauntingly beautiful colours for your new interstellar friend. Which one is right for you?

Samsung Galaxy S21

Every Galaxy colour this year has a ghostly hue named Phantom. What does this mean? Will we be struck dead by it's beauty? Time will tell.

The Galaxy S21 is available in four colours;

• Phantom Violet
• Phantom Pink
• Phantom Gray
• Phantom White

Phantom Violet

Roses are red, and violets are blue,
Well actually they’re purple,
And whoever wrote that was colour blind,
Maybe you are too? 

Phantom Pink

Every day can be Wednesday if you’re strutting around with the Phantom Pink Galaxy S21. Be haunted by the pastel prowess of this rose tinted device. Show off your inner bimbo or himbo and slide around with an S21 that’s on the sweeter side of red.

Phantom Gray

You’re unbiased. You’re fair. You’re Switzerland. Embrace your scandi neutrality with the Phantom Gray Galaxy S21.

Phantom White

You are the ultimate spectre of the underworld. Your days consist of floating around, endlessly searching for a way to complete your unfinished business. It’s probably that Netflix show you never got back to. You should probably watch that.

Samsung Galaxy S21+

If you're looking at the Samsung Galaxy S21+ then you'll got three colours to choose from:

• Phantom Silver
• Phantom Black
• Phantom Violet

And two colours are available exclusively through Samsung:

• Phantom Red
• Phantom Gold

Phantom Silver

Are you pretty good at a lot of things, but not necessarily the best? Take your second place on the podium and brandish your Phantom Silver Galaxy S21+ with pride. Say it loud, “I am better than most people, apart from that one guy!”

Phantom Black

You’re never over or under dressed in a little black dress, so be ready for any occasion by decking out your S21+ in Phantom Black. Are you a sultry spy? Are you prone to spilling things on yourself? 

Who knows. You’re mysterious.

Phantom Violet

Do you dream of being turned into a blueberry by an eccentric candy factory owner and his slaves? Phantom Violet is the colour for you.

Phantom Red

Red. Good choice, comrade. 

Phantom Gold

Nothing says glamour and decadence more than dripping in gold. I bet you're bougie. You don't wait in lines. You know people, and they know you. Or at least they know you're not to be crossed.

Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

When only the Samsung S21 Ultra will do, you'll just need to pick between two monochromatic designs.

• Phantom Black
• Phantom Silver

And three colours are available exclusively through Samsung:

• Phantom Titanium
• Phantom Navy
• Phantom Brown

Phantom Black

Phantom Black is the perfect colour of the Galaxy S21 Ultra. You’re probably in mourning of your savings account. Wear your heart on your sleeve.

Phantom Silver

Silver is a precious metal. Just like your precious S21 Ultra. My Precious! O my Precious!

Phantom Titanium

Bulletproof. Nothing to lose. Shoot me down, but I won't fall. I am titanium. If you're to believe David Guetta then this is a pretty indestructible device... I wouldn't take his word for it though.

Phantom Navy

Yvon eht noij.

Phantom Brown

The solid, reliable colour of chocolate. Chocolate is always there when you're upset. Chocolate sees you through. Chocolate never ghosts you... Well I guess this one might.
