  I am a man & I ordered cyan too. I am getting mine today. I've always had black smartphones and DAPs and I thought I should have something that looks fun and different.And if I don't like cyan or if it draws too much attention, I can always get the black silicone case (when it becomes available).

I was thinking of getting the cyan as well, I just couldn't quite get there before hitting 'buy'...I was damn close though!

Real men order CYAN

I have to say, the Cyan finish is pretty sweet and a nice change.

Hey guys, did anyone else notice that on the packaging there is three place holders for colours, but only two currently available? :wink:


That's a spoiler! :D

I ordered my N3 last night. It is CYAN! Why? Because I am a real man. :) The same story. My laptop is black. My headphone is black. My iPhone 5 is black .My iPhone SE is in black case. My kindle is black. Everything on my desk is black. Cyan is easy for me to found the N3.
I order directly from musicteck. It shipped this morning. It's via USPS. It shows it will arrive next Monday. I am living in California.

Musicteck must be selling a bundle of these. It's where I got mine. Very good people there!

I hope your delivery date is more accurate than mine.  It was "supposed" to be delivered today.

Ah, well.  Maybe tomorrow.

First impressions are very positive. Also working flawlessly as an external DAC with my Windows laptop.
 

 
Build quality is very good for the most part. The USB-C slot, however, doesn't seem to be perfectly centered. This shouldn't be causing any issues though, hopefully.

  I just received mine and I love the cyan color. It makes it look different than all the other items on my desk like my black ThinkPad & black phone. 
 
However, I am not a big fan of the silicone case which looks a different shade of blue.

Does the case have a different hue when on the N3?

It's for another as yet undecided colour depending on the popularity of the N3, thanks to AndyKong for pointing out my spoiler :grinning:

uh the product page shows 5 colors of case. A hint?

My phone doesn't have a very good camera, so it's hard to show it but yeah the case has a different hue when on the N3. But it is hard to notice it in dim light. The only place you can notice that is the area surrounding the USB-C slot and the 3.5mm jack. The case covers everything else.
