This is what Lavender is suppose to look like.

Other than that, this phone is Awesome. The positive about the color is now I keep a case on it at all times whereas before with the S21+ was so pretty I had the case off half the time and was at risk of dropping the phone.
 
I was looking at a virtually new lavender Galaxy S21fe 5g in a nearby exchange store chain. I requested to see it (mint, unmarked but minus the box) and asked the guy jokingly if he thought it was more of a ladiy's color. We both paused and I said I would put a case on it anyway. He just said "Ah.. well. Then! .."
I think that Lavender was a little darker than those photos of the S23 series.

It's not pink, but you may attract suggestive male glances :rolleyes:

Honestly, no it's fine.

Ducky.
 
I think this is pretty common with all phones to some extent. I bought a Pixel 7 color called lemongrass, from the picture it looks like a greenish yellow, but mine looks more like a white phone that has yellowed from the sun.

I suspect the peeps at Samsung were looking at a Pantone colour chart, rather than the actual flower...

PANTONE: "How many different shades of lavender do you want?"
SAMSUNG: "We will go with a pink lavender for our new smart-phone."
