[Q] White or black? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Are you going to get the black or the white version? Why?

I'm thinking white, just because my Inspire and Vivid were black and I want something different.

I'll be getting white. Just keep in mind it gets dirty a lot faster

Don't you mean white or BLUE
I'm going black . . . never have really liked the look of white phones. black just looks more serious pants to me when it comes to electronics . . . to each his own though!

Hmm maybe i should change that.... Im probably going to get white, but idk it loojs kind of girly .. But it looks a lot cooler in my eyes

Black or Carbon Blue since it goes with everything! The front is indeed black I believe and the back cover is carbon blue.

When I had my hands on it, it was a very, very dark blue. Almost black

I wish there was one that was all carbon blue, that would be sweet.

Black for me. It will be easier to keep clean.

Maybe not if you get it online you have to wait for shipping so could be early or late If you preorder from store you pick it up on launch day

I will getting the blue one. I asked my wife and she agrees the white one is for girls.

Don't see an issue cleaning it.... Its not a house...

White is definitely sharp but 1) I am a guy (even though my motorcycle is a white Triumph!), 2) My wife says everything that is white plastic will eventually turn yellow???. She usually know better than me.

Just pre- ordered my carbon blue note. I don't like white phones. Besides they show dirt way too easy I think it makes them look cheap. That is just my personal opinion tho cause I know there are alot of people love the white look

I ordered white from at&t. I get compliments from my white skyrocket all the time, esp girls in say the starbucks. It helps them get interested in something other than Apple, I'm all for it.

Rushed To Get an S3, Love it, Don't Like Pebble Blue.. Exchange for White?

I really want to exchange this phone for a white one when they are available - I paid almost $700 and do not want to pay the $75 restocking fee to exchange it. I ran Dead Pixel Tester and found 2 dead or stuck pixels. Will they let me exchange it for a NEW white phone if I complain to retention? Any ideas?
Damn that sucks.

They should. It's a manufacturing defect.

Same here.
on the 27th.
I was mad when I found out the white s3 wouldn't ship till later. I bit the bullet and bought the blue one and I was surprised because the blue ain't bad at all, I actually like it and it looks like the whole phone is brushed metal.

I actually like the blue...it's much better looking in real life than the pictures made out to look...its kinda got a gunmetal look to it that I am digging...but definitely a finger print magnet for the back cover though.

That's exactly what I thought. I went into the store telling myself I wouldn't buy it if they didn't have the white one because I'd seen the promo pictures and didn't like it as much. Then I saw a guy with a blue one outside the store and it totally changed my mind. It's much more reserved than what I expect the white one to look like. The blue isn't overwhelming and blends nicely with the lighter blue on the edges.

Cause you could be mistaken for this with a white one
The white on plastic phones has a tendency to turn blue if you wear jeans. Just a warning.
Also, my Blue one looks AMAZING! It isn't near as blue as pictures make it look, more of a titanium.
Yeah I didn't like the blue at first, but now that I have it, it's beautiful.
been drinking whiskey for the last hour...so i'm sorry. but i'm also not sorry.

White or Grey? Which looks better?

I don't know if I want to keep my white or go with the Grey. opinions are welcome. Which one looks better, white or Grey? Thanks for the help.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
It's all preference.
I liked the grey better, but that was because of the home button. The white didn't match in my eyes.
If you're looking to switch, may want to hold off because word is, a black version is coming out soon.
What he said ^^.. My daughter has the white one and I have the grey one. I personally like the grey better but she likes the white better. All preference.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
It's a known fact that the grey one is faster, gets better reception and will not break if you drop it!!
Ok, none of that is true, but it is true that the grey one looks better!!
Ok, that isn't true either (for a lot of folks)!
But if you are asking for opinions, then mine is. . . GREY!!
I suggest you go to a store and hold both phones. Then pick the one you like best and buy it.
Good luck.
The grey looks less cheap, will hide dirt better, and the gd button doesn't stand out as much.
The white flip cover gets dirty on the inside of the cover quite quickly. The white however may lend itself better to the new coloured flip covers that are available. I don't know if grey and pastel-orange or blue will look so good.
I went with Grey. I had the white galaxy s3 and if you have a screen protector on the phone it starts looking dirty after awhile due to finger oil/dirt that happens to rub off.
Can't go wrong with either though.

I came to say similar things about the white one, lol.
I got a tpu hybrid case & it has black and clear parts to it, so it really looks nice over the white GNote, even if it wasn't I love the look of white on this, it really makes it pop
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
I prefer grey. Looks better. But my sgs3 was white. Lol
I got the grey simply because it almost blends the VZW logo in with the phone; you don't see it as much. Also, there are going to be a lot more cases that will be black as opposed to white, and unless you like serious contrasting colors, most cases will match the dark grey of the Note as opposed to the white color. Hope this helps.
I got the white one. And I tell everyone I meet that I'm on a verizon plan.

I had a gs3 & it was a titanium Grey. I saw the white in person & it looks okay but the Grey has a premium look. I even waited on Amazon to get the Grey note 2 in. I would not accept the white lol.

The white one looks awesome as long as it's in your Wife's purse, guys don't buy white PHONES.. LOL
There should be a poll if you want to see which is the popular vote. Anyways, I like the white. I've had dark colored phones until now and the white on a giant phablet makes me think I have a unique looking phone.
Grey but I had no choice but to buy white

The white looks sleek, but I like the grey better. Plus in not worried about it getting dirty and showing scuffs easily. But if you have the patience, wait for the black.

I prefer the gray version. My S III was white (and it was my first white phone) and while it's a nice look, I just feel that the gray looks better on the Note II.

Colored OEM style backs!!

I know some of you have been looking for these and I found some that look really good with stitching and all. 3.99 isn't a bad price either.

That's why I'm glad they are only 3.99 so if it is still slippery, at least it was only 3.99 lol might get a white s pen to complete the look and use a jedi rom. Haha

Just ordered one. Will post photos once it's in.
So mine just came in today. I got it in mint green.
The texture of it feels very similar to the one that came with my phone. It also has a little writing on the back that says "Bubblepack".
It didn't fit perfectly when I first tried to put it on, until I tried putting it on starting from the bottom.
It feels a little bit more grippy but that could be because I just got back from biking and my hands are sweaty. Either way, it's not a bad price if you want to change the battery cover color.
Thanks for sharing the pic, looks good. Did you order from one of the sellers that shows pics without the text in the corner? I ordered from this seller and I'll be annoyed if they show up with text on them, because I ordered four of them haha. http://www.ebay.com/itm/12123930293...eName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
I ordered mint green, purple, lime green, and black (for a spare, I have a black phone).

I ordered gun metal grey from best buy. It said coming soon but I kept looking and it finally took me to where I could order it.
Odd that they dropped the black color option, was sort of looking forward to it.
Ended up going with gunmetal.
I ponied up the $100 premium for off contract that Best Buy charges so I could get the gold version.

My guess would be the black scratched too easily...you know you could always put a Diztronic Matte Black case on it, just sayin.
Gunmetal was the only option on AT&T's site. That's the color I wanted though so I'm good.

Is the silver color supposed to be offered at AT&T. That's the color I was hoping for but they don't have it on the web, hopefully they will have it by the time it hits retail stores.
On AT&T gunmetal is only option. so yes gunmetal it is
Yeah, noticed. Wanted the silver but gun metal will do. Out for delivery here already

Was really wanting the gold one since it reminded me of the original gold edition Zelda nes cartridge, but I got mine through att, so gun metal it was.

I had already bought my m8 black tpu case off ebay for under $6, it was delivered on the 24th.
I purchased unmetal but I won't lie that gold does look OG and I like it haha
Color I want
I want the silver model but I am hesitant to buying a phone without actually getting a feel for it beforehand. I'm going to go to a Verizon store before I make my final decision. I prefer the silver model but willing to buy the gold version from best buy. I chatted with a guy from the att website and he said they release in store on 4/8 but no word on a silver release.
Also, is it worth buying this phone with a two year contract?
Gunmetal through AT&T. I think it's a great color.

Why do i only see the gun metal version on ATT website? Are there any plans to offer other colors? I really wanted the stealth black but as i read above maybe its not coming. I do like the best buy gold version though...

Black or Gold?

What color G3 did you guys get? Are you happy with your choice? I played with the gold one at the store and it looks real nice..

I went with the black "Greyish" color. I'm happy with it.
I thought the gold one looked like a toy, so i went with the black. I really wish they would have had the white.
I went in to get the gold one, but when I looked at it, I thought it looked bad. I ended up getting the black/gray one.
Lol! Guess I'm gonna have to check out the black one.. is it more like a grayish color?
