When is Red not Red?

[NickFurnell]

My red S22 ultra turned up today after a long wait (plenty of threads about that on here already).

Unfortunately, the colour of the phone can hardly be described as Red. It's perhaps Orange, but more like Salmon. This isn't what I expected or wanted. I'm seriously, considering sending the phone back.🤔

Writing this sounds quiet petty, but when spending well over £1000 on a product, I'd expect to get what I paid for. A "Red phone", and not a wishy-washy Orange.

Same here, purchased Phantom black with 512 gb storage, after obscenely long waiting time, i received "green" with 256 gb. Offending and insulting behavior from Samsung

@Krisalex79 Did you authorise the swap or did Samsung send you the wrong colour and storage?

🤦🤦🤦🤦

no, neither the color or storage. i still tooknit because deliveries are unbelievably inconsistent and unpredictable, but it is like because i have not much of a choice.

I waited 6 weeks for my red phone and when I opened the box I cried like a baby (hate to admit that but it's true). I don't care what they say this is not RED! Red is my favorite color, so I decided I would order red. Knowing it would arrive on the week of my birthday. My husband ordered the Phantom Black and have been enjoying his phone for well over a month, before mines arrived. He teases me everyday now, when he looks at my phone. They told me I couldn't return it because it was a custom. Yes I bought a red and black case for it, but I can still see that salmon color in the camera area. So I will try to find a good skin next. I hate the color, get mad every time pick it up. Had the phone for 2 weeks now, have no choice but to get over it or put it up on Ebay.

Thank you so much for this info, 🙂hope a clear case can still fit with the skin. Oh happy day! 🤗🙃

 now this is red 😍😍😍 and I still get to keep my $250 samsung credit because I didn't want to return it and get a different color. The right skin makes me feel a lot better about my phone.
