Samsung Plans to Launch 'Jet Black' Version of Galaxy S7 in Early December

Nobody is saying that Samsung is doing anything illegal here. What people are saying that it is utterly pathetic.
Was it pathetic when Apple used pastel colors after others did? Or are we just saying this because Apple fans love to hate Samsung?
What also happens: Apple does Gold. Idiots crying "Gold is so ugly, it's for pimps, it's so tasteless". Samsung does Gold: "Samsung has done Gold years before Apple". Apple does Jet Black. Idiots crying: "Jet Black will scratch and look horrible". Samsung does Jet Black: "Samsung has done Jet Black years before Apple".

Aren't you lucky that your mom lets you use her iPhone?
It must be nice to pigeonhole people so you can continue your love of a multi billion dollar company.
Unlike Apple. When Samsung bring out a new colour. It's classed as an option. Not a feature. Owners won't swap their S6 for a S7 because it's had a paint job. I will wait for the S8 in March next year for the new redesign.
Samsung the fast copier follows again.

Although I suspect it's deliberate, you're kind of missing the point.

And also a very large number of past examples where this has happened. The evidence is overwhelming.
For those of you who missed it, this "new" black color was released many months ago. It's NOT new, and it's NOT a copy of anything Apple. They lost an entire model and its entire revenue stream so they're just trying to keep something interesting and exciting about their existing model for the holidays, by releasing a color they already had, sans the special limited edition character markings. This also looks like the color they had for their special edition Olympics phone.
The snark has been amusing but in the interest of factual reporting, here is the model announced in June of this year: http://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/events/injustice/
PS, They also just released a coral blue version that is selling well according to the article that Mac Rumors referenced. So are they still copying Apple by releasing blue? And their pink color looks nothing like rose gold, either, really.

Don't confuse him. He only talks one single digit at a time so just use numbers, letters and emoji.
I think the most noticeable difference is that yours would have grayish sides and the new black is blacked out all around. Hard to be sure without seeing them in person.
I hear Samsung is planning to give up on their Mac lineup too.
