Color. The hardware is identical in them.

There was a difference at one point, something to do with upgrading from 1xx/2xx -> 3xx or something, but the difference was lost (as in I dont think anyone remembers) when I prepared all the stock rec images and mirrored them on streakdroid.

They should both basically be the same...along with the cherry-red one.
If I remember correctly, when Dell dropped the prices on their website, the $450 unlocked Streak came in only cherry-red.

The cherry red one replaced the 16GB card with a 32GB one, but that was about it for the differences. The white one was a Best Buy exclusive if I recall. Two other colors besides basic black I know of are purple and green. Purple units are engineering samples and are different both in hardware and software from all other Streaks. Green Streaks were the prerelease units, but were otherwise identical to the other commonly available colors.

Well the 400$ unlocked Streak came in black first, then in red like mine. It was sold in my country for over 700$ back then. My streak was a really good deal !!

Converted Dell Streak users

Just wondering how many dell streak users have switched over to the Note. Still waiting for my note to get here, hopefully tomorrow. I had my streak for a year and a half and it was my favorite phone I've had. Any streak converts...how are you finding the switch?
Shockingly, it's not as big a difference as I had hoped. I guess that's a testament to how ahead of its time the streak was. I love the Note, too.
I also really appreciate the development here, its nice to have a phone that a few other people have as well..!

Digitizer on my streak stopped responding literally a week before this bad boy was shipping. I miss the metal case on the streak, somehow felt a bit tougher... lord knows that thing had been dropped.
I'm a bit terrified to drop the Note. Plastic and weak feeling in comparison...
I was hoping to be blown away moving from the Streak, but so far I am not seeing a huge improvement. Maybe I should go back to the Streak for a day to change my perspective. Of course my Streak was running a custom ROM and my Note is still just stock. I imagine I will like it much better when I get a new ROM.

Most of the enjoyment I got from the streak was playing with the custom roms. Especially dj Steve's gingerbread roms.

Great avatar slaydog!
I kind of preferred dell's landscape mode, but note is great too. Screen is awesome.
I had a streak and loved it for a year and a half. Now I love my note!

The one thing I do NOT miss about my Streak is the back cover sliding off and turning off the phone if/when the phone got bumped while in by belt holster case. Both my Streak and Note are rooted; and that is it! No custom ROMs etc. The Note is WAY faster than my Streak. The Note's picture quality is WAY better than the Streak. I kind of miss the landscape mode too; but I'll live....
Had a dell streak for over a year...despite Dell/At&t not knowing what they had, not supporting the device, it was (even with 2.2.2) my favorite device.
Got a Note just before Christmas (international version), and absolutely LOVE IT!
I hated the streak so I see a lot of difference with the note its much faster and all around better device hands down the streak is a POS compared to the note IMO

its been an easy move from the streak to the note. overall size is almost the exact same. I did like the Streak's landscape mode too.
2 Birds with one stone.
I switched from the Dell Streak 7 (multimedia & gaming / browsing), and the HTC Inspire as my primary 2 devices down to the AT&T Note; putting both out to pasture. So far I am VERY pleased with the switch.
There are quite a few incompatible apps with the Note so far since it is brand new but I don't mind waiting. As far as modding the Note, I have already flashed the OC/kernel and the Deoxed Rom; It took a great Gingerbread device and made it even better. I can't wait to see what pops up in the coming month for the Note.
I had my Dell Streak running smooth, had bought the Dock and a 32 gig card for it, had the Mini HDMI - HDMI cable and other little things. Now I guess I'll put the Streak and everything on eBay and say goodbye to it, and keep the Inspire in a drawer as backup in case I need it. You guy's think $175 is about right for the Streak/Doc/Card/Cables?
I had the Streak for 2 years and loved it. I now have the Note and it has a nice screen and it seems a little faster. The battery life and charge time on the Streak is way better. I like many that posted here prefer the landscape operation of the Streak. Using third party apps 95% of the time I can use the Note landscape.
I used custom ROM on the streak and looking forward to a custom version of ICS for the Note. My screen density is set at 240 and I use Zeam as my launcher.
I am really loving the Note. I still have the Streak but the screen is broken again and this was the last time for me.

My fondness of my streak is like that of a childhood friend.. Sounds weird but i don't think ill ever forget it, no matter how many phones i go through in life.

I was one of the early Streak adopters(I should say), loved the screen size, landscape mode, custom roms & streaksmart.com with a small tight community..
Note being same dimensions with a lot more power was an easy choice for me, and yes I love it so far, lot smoother and no quirkiness that I experienced with stock and some custom roms on Streak and no I don't miss the Streak
I dont even remember seeing the streak for sale at at&t, were these unlocked on at&t? I'm surprised you guys are seeing the difference to be minimal. Dell doesnt have the greatest reputation for quality products. No offense to anyone.

It wasnt advertised properly, when it first went on sale it was only available through Dell.com with a ATT contract. Later it was launched in BestBuy and ATT stores but there was enough publicity!
Quality of the product it self isn't bad, solid construction but software updates pretty much sucked, it came with Android 1.6 when 2.2 was available and took Dell months to release an upgrade. But I was able to root and apply a custom rom with 2.2 in couple weeks after the phone launched, DJ_Steve was a dedicated developer working and churning out custom ROMS like crazy!! So that made it worth while!
streak
shattered the screen on my streak 2 days ago, already replaced the screen once and decided it was time for an upgrade instead of replacing again. happy so far, but the custom roms made performance comparable in a lot of ways (quadrant scores much higher on note though - 2900ish)
............adw for landscape.............who used the dell stage launcher anyway?
I used the Streak for 1.5 years. It was a good device only because of what DJ_Steve and Fards did. It did have it's quirks though which one just learned to deal with. The note, at least to me, is far superior than the Streak. I can't wait to see ICS running on it.

Black or White?

Good day to all!
Is there any difference between black and white sgs2? I mean the performance and built quality of the display and camera module? Or its only the color?
Because some say that white one comes whit worse hardware..
Thanks.
No difference. Anyone who says there is doesn't know what they're talking about.
Pink or limited edtion Silver..
The reason some may say white has the worst hardware is they may of got hold of a I9100M , I9100G or I9100T etc...or a fake which there are many flying around these days....
On the plus side for the black it has better grip and not so easy to discolor unlike the white version...

Yupp Thats the reason..
I9100 Is always same only color is different
What's wrong with the 9100M?
It's identical to international version. M just denotes Canada.
Get a white and put a matte black case on it.
The contrast is beautiful!

Pulled the image off ebay.
My case is slightly different but you get the point about the contrast being super sexy!

my upgrade on 27/7/12

Right i've decided on the S3 already however while i have two months to wait i'm wondering, when will the black version be out and when will the 64gb version be out. since i'm waiting for a bit i started to wonder when we'd see these two or one models released to the UK market, i was disappointed by the S2 only having 16gb as the 64gb would make it a iphone challenger for the audiophiles like myself.
so anyone got any idea?

There's no black version, just pebble blue.
If u bothered to read the forums a little you would know that there's delays for the 16gb and 32gb so asking for a 64gb is just a waste of time.. you have a UK only release thread to get info and news, I suggest u use it...
Also it's a mess to compare it with an iPhone, even with "just" 16 gb internal storage, there is also the sd.

thats a bit harsh telling him to use a thread thats titled uk users just to ask a question ...
does he not have the choice where to post as long as its in the right section , which he is
and has not already been asked before about the 64gb version
1. There is no comparison between this and a ****ephone.
2. There is no and will be no black version, due to Samsung avoiding legal action from apple. Yes, they patented a f*cking colour. You will also notice that the edges on the top and bottom are different too, again, apple patented a shape.
I don't know where I saw the pic now but I've seen a black one and its mentioned in this article
http://www.huzoorbux.com/samsung-galaxy-s3-comes-later-in-black_1022.html so I dunno. But if its blue or white I'm put off. Two colours I'm not a fan of.

Not black, it's just a crappy picture. There was another thread somewhere where somebody thought they saw a black one in the picture, but upon a closer look it was just blue and a crappy picture. Depending on the light, it may seem black.
Except that and mobile review says Samsung are releasing one in future read it you'll see

I've read it also, that a black version maybe is coming,but not out yet,its not officially confirmed by samsung.
But please don't compare iPhone sd storage with any galaxy version, iPhone is way behind, galaxy phones have an external sd witch support 64 gb, except sgs1 had 16 and 32gb

which display type did you tmobile htc one come with?

fa33 , honestly im staying from this thread. Threads like these just start making people nit pick at stuff that doesnt even matter.
Anyone get an ht one that's a T-Mobile version?
It's personal preference. The op of the other thread prefers bluer one, I like the less blue one.

Checked white balance on my phone when I got it with a piece of paper and it looked good. Confirmed that it was the batch from Taiwan.

I second this by saying..

But also, no offense.

HTC is notorious for screen shortages and using 2 manufacturers. The HTC MyTouch4g had it, so did the Sensation......

just ordered 6 htc ones. all 6 made in Taiwan logos.
4 came fa34xx
2 came fa35xx
I wont' be opening to test them.

Which colour

I'm trying to decide between the rose blush or the mountain grey. It's had to pre order without seeing the colour.
I thought the rose blush would be different just hoping it's not too pink and more like a rose gold colour. Can't decide.
I'm planning on ordering the cloud blue.
I went with the 256GB rose blush in the end we didn't get the cloud blue option in Ireland. Placed delivery expected before September 4th
Preorders aren’t open, are they?

It's open is Europe and Middle East.
You can find a good deal @ clove.co.uk
I did chose the cloud blue too. Hoping it will look as good as the official shots
Not related to your original question, but do you know which processor will it be : Exynos or the Qualcom Snapdragon 855?
In France, it looks like it will be an Exynos version (got it almost confirmed with Samsung support).
Not too stocked about that since the Snapdragon seem a little better overall...
I'm trying to decide between Cloud Blue and Mountain Grey. I think I'll go with Grey, simply because that's the only color available for the keyboard case during preorders.
I really like the blue, but I also think the grey will look more professional.
I've gone with the grey and don't regret it. Looks very smart in person
I went with Rose blush as a change from the usual black and grey and I'm very please with it
