Seriously only the A8s only?
Why can't manufacturers make FLAGSHIP phones with more feminine colours?
I mean half your customers are women and they take way, WAY more photos/selfies than men...

So, everyone just get offended by 'FE'. It is just Fan Edition. If you not a fan aka hating on this then dont buy it. Samsung expect only fan to buy it anyway. Fyi, it is a valentine day smartphone. In tradition, a guy supposed to give gift to a girl he likes. So, yes. Thus, the color choice. They dont expect a woman to buy this on valentine day. Heck, its not even in their mind to assume woman buy this for their boyfriend. Another fun fact, Korea are against LGBT.

Walter C. Dornez, 21 Jan 2019I'm.... Confused to say the least. You could've just called... moreI think that community is just way too "point-and-shame trigger-happy". Also their orientation is irrelevant. They didn't say "Transgender Edition", or "Homosexual Edition". It's Female like you have toys for boys and girls. Is it that bad to have some toys meant for boys and others meant for girls? That doesn't prevent them for making general toys either. They want to cater to the demographics' interests. Fairly sure you won't have many boys playing Barbie. So is it wrong to say it's a girls toy?

Jaeger, 21 Jan 2019Just to be clear. The fact that a certain product is AIM... moreAbout 12 or more years ago there were 2 or 3 models only for ladies. I remember one, which was a samsung, a sales person insisted I should buy one with another contract. I am female so I needed a phone with an app for menstrual cycle and another to remind me I must take my pill plus something to track my weight, all non removable. I didn't want it, back then samsung had a series of really bad phones and that model had a small battery and a tiny screen and it wasn't even an average phone, just another very bad phone pretending to be great. It was before smartphones. I think it was pink or red to indicate it was a female version. No memory card so some additional apps really, really didn't help.

Just to be clear.
The fact that a certain product is AIMED at women doesn't necesarily mean it's ONLY for women. So, I think FE doesn't mean Female Edition. And if it is... well, picture the consequences if you will.

So at Samsung, FE stands for either Fan Edition or Female Edition. BTW I don‘t like this sex-specific stuff, why not offer it to both genders, I mean we live in an era where men are allowed to wear make-Up, and They have long been able to wear pink shirts, so why not have a pink phone? Women can also have a blue phone if we keep on with the stereotypes. With sneakers, beige is actually pretty nice, and it is not far from a light pink, some beige colors are even confused with light pink colors

Also, your sexual status is irrelevant to your point. The fact you are transgender doesn't assist your point that Samsung assumes what a genre likes.
