I dont understand the language in the video however, I noticed that the person mentions it as "pebble blue" at the start of the video..

    Samsung have change the material used to create the Blue one,as they throw away 600,00 polycardonate bodies because it did not meet there Standards so now instead of Pebble Blue it will be called Magnetic Blue,so now the phone will be more stronger an look alot duller though

        If you look closely you can see that the battery cover is indeed a different color scheme than the outer edges of the phone! the edges are blue, but the cover is gray!
        this must be a device that was meant to be returned to the factory but stayed on the market!

            This sort of colour (if true but I doubt it) would make it easier to swap from my S2. Hope they do bring out a classier colour scheme.

                Hi guys, I do think that very bad lighting plays a big role in this video. As everyone knows, natural sunlight gives the most accurate colour scheme. If you pause the video at 0:36 and 1:06. You would see that the colour shifts from grey to blue-grey.

                    It's pebble blue, when the left hand of the reviewer move, you can see the lines of metal look.

                        Watch closes when he turns the phone and it goes into the light. You can see the brushed aluminum effect and the blue colour. Just the lighting it seems.

                          My guess is that this is the colour that came out of the manafacturing error for the pebble blue.

                              I like that more than the blue one. Please sell it globally. :)

                                  I know for sure that this is probably the pebble blue version. Maybe its like that because of the lighting, and the color of the surroundings plus the blue color made it look like it's gray. Nevertheless, gray looks waaaay cooler than the blue or white ones. Looks more stylish and premium. I hope Samsung would come up with a gray and black versions.

                                      I claim conspiracy!

                                      Samsung noticed the backlash against the original choice and purposely fudged it last minute so they could fix it!

                                        I can hear him say 'pebble blue'. So it has got to be coloring issue of the cam.
