PyeongChang 2018 Olympic athletes are getting hooked up with new Samsung Galaxy Note 8 phones that are so limited, the public can’t even buy them. Samsung announced in a press release that all athletes in the games (and team staff members) would be receiving one of the devices. The phone features a white glass back with an image of golden Olympic rings. The phones will have all of the same functionality as the original Note 8, but will also come pre-loaded with apps that will be most useful to the athletes, as well as a special PyeongChang games wallpaper.
