Noctua Update Roadmap: World's Best PC Fan in Black for Early 2021
Back in Black!

there are only two reasons I can think of why Noctua took so long to release black versions of their fans...
- they knew it would be more popular than their red / beige so waited for inventory levels to drop
- they wanted to make it better than the red/ beige version.
anyhow, they mentioned not only black fans, but black colored coolers.
