A seemingly trivial question I know, but which is best the black or the white - in regards to fingerprints, showing the dirt, general wear and tear etc.? - your opinions please
Thanks.
white all the life!
In my case the sensation is like an APPLE device!
by the way the black one has some problem about the paint of the case. it seems that in a few weeks it goes away!
...that's what i'e heard on some forums!
bye
Thanks gerazzo, I've heard that too about the black ones - but I've got the dilemma that I prefer the black ones to the white ones, but the white ones do seem to be a bit more practical!

I had the black one first and after 12 hours of use it started to peel. So, now i have the white one which doesnt show any sign of peeling - BUT it is white, which i dont really like.
If you can live with the white color then go with the white one and you wont (probably) have the headache of paint problems.
Either way, most importantly the P3600 is a great device and you will enjoy the functionality regardless of the color of the casing.
Had three (3) Trinities now: Go for white. There is no peeling at all and fingerprints are nearly invisible. Only drawback: Others might think you have an Apple device
White! Just design a cool home screen.
I handled both for 5 minutes. A Black Trinity is like a black car, it looks great IF its clean but looks terrible when its dirty. After 5 minutes the finger prints bugged me.
Could just be my OCD self!
Well thanks guys, it sounds like I should go for the white one then - although I can't stand them in white! Why is nothing straight forward? Ho Hum.
Hey Guys,
the white is better, but where do you get your white one. In Germany you get only black ones. Do you have tips???
Thanks!
Oliver
Hi Oliver, well most of our white ones come with our operator Orange over here - but here are a few links to the white ones:

Thanks TJW.
Great Adresses with white Trinitys. You can be happy in UK, you get the whites.
You get the white in UK, FR, Switzerland and so on. Only Germany, only black. Thats funny
No I think to buy one in UK, better pay more and have more risk instead get a black one with peeling.....
Oh a funny story beside: I ask an shop in Switzerland about the white one. The have but they said "No delivery to germany, come to Zurich and take one there" What????
With best white greetings
The black and white guy Oliver
PS: HTC, If you read my message please say me the price for a white one and I will sent you the money....
Hey guys...this is the cheapest place I've found for the white one in the UK:

quick poll for all g1 kids
did you order brown or black??
i only had the option of brown when i ordered, but seeing the black ones, im glad i got brown. it matches my lighter perfectly LOL
black all the way! white will get dirty all the time and you will have to clean it all the time... and the brown one looks like poop. LOL!
thats where ur wrong my friend brown is teh hawtness!!i love that the keypad is silver
I really wanted black but I ordered brown since it was the only one available to me. I got it yesterday and I'm glad I got brown. Its sexy looking.
I ordered the black one. Can't wait til it comes!
Is it that same coppery-brownish color of the T-Mobile Shadow? I had one of those, that was a nice color...

g1 is a g1
im on an employee acct and in order to receive one early brown was the only color available, however it doesnt look to bad its a dark brown cant really tell until you get up close
bronze(brown) definitely has an appealing color and now i'm wondering if i should have ordered black.....I want a side by side comparison of all 3 colors
I have a black toothbrush, does that give it away? lol
Haha black all the way... looks much cleaner...
Yeah it does and hides the blemishes on phone better
If I have the option, I only get two kinds of devices: Black or Silver.
Bronze/brown doesn't sound good to me, and white always looks like it was made by Fisher-Price. I choose black because:
-It doesn't show dirt as easily
-It goes with everything, black never goes out of style, while other colors do.
-It doesn't draw attention to itself
-It's easy on the eyes
-Black doesn't fade or start to yellow over time
I was an employee upgrade so I only had brown to choose from..I wanted black but the brown actually looks great. Mine comes this thursday and I cant wait!
Hate brown, went for black!
Black, brown is hard to see the.keypad!!
LOL! talk about a bump.. way to resurrect a thread that's over a year old!! gj
I totally agree tho. originally got brown on release date last year... within 14 days it was put into paper weight mode lol. returned it for the black one and have been happier ever since..
What's a bum?
bump* it's when you bring a thread that's fallen down a page or two back to the first page by posting in it, "bump" it back to the top
Came accross this
and it got me thinking, marble madness must be one of THE killer apps for G-sensor support
http://www.handango.com/catalog/Pro...9&deviceId=1152&platformId=30&productId=31651
Can anyone do it ?
the gods answered your prayer :lol: http://www.4pockets.com/product_info.php?p=108
and it's great tbh ! =)
Not that good...
Is it me, or does the 'marble' just look like it's sliding along rather than actually rotating? Great idea, but the ball effects need a bit of work. At least with Teeter, the ball looks like its rolling, not sliding! Just my opinion
i think they took the images from the iPhone and carried them over since the graphics are not true VGA resolution and I find it noticeable. It's a fun game though...just can't sit on top of the screen I'm still a fan or Resco's Bubbles.
Yeah, and only costs $2.99 to get it for an iPhone, $14.95 or $14.99 for the rest of us losers.
There doesn't seem to be any information about what the release date for the White version is? There is only the review video on Slashgear, and the announcement from Samsung that the white version will launch alongside the black version. To my knowledge, no white Note's have shipped yet.
I just pre-ordered the White version from handtec.co.uk for 449GBP+15GBP Shipping, but they have no expected date.
If there is any updates on the White version, please post them here.
got the white one on clove.co.uk ( not sure if its in stock but the site already let ppl purchase )
www.clove.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-note-white
ps its more expensive than other sites tho
According to the below link (first paragraph), the white version should be launching in the UK the same day as the black one. I want the white one, so going to just wait. Handtec has it, but it says pre-order with no date listed.
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/42763/samsung-galaxy-note-release-uk
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php?xProd=5864
I just heard back from Clove and Handtec on the white galaxy note, seems that Samsung hasn't given them any release date, so, looks like it might be awhile
why don't buy a dark blue one with some white paint? The white one is mostly for girls.
The info I got from Clove was early December for the white version. Take that with a grain of salt...
i got the black one as i cannot wait for the white one
i have asked samsung UK about the white one " no date for releasing the white one yet , it might take a while "
I also contacted handtec about the white one and they have no date.
I just contacted Handtec to change my preorder of the White version to the black one...cant wait for the white one
White one available now....... Ebay.. Ermmmmm $3,000/£1,880.88 anybody?
Oh come on. It's a snip..... Free delivery and they're not charging Sales Tax/VAT

Just bought a White Galaxy Note off Ebay. Shows in stock so I should have it next week.
Yesterday I saw several shops in Sincere Podium in Mong Kok - Hong Kong selling the white Samsung Galaxy Note, the price is the same as the blue one (~750USD)

And why is White only for the girls? White is as much of a eliteist color as black, more some in most cases.
I want the white because I work in the medical field, so I think that's pretty self explanatory. A big Black Tablet would look stupid in my lab jacket.

White can be just as nice, I think it is awesome whether its black or white.

White Galaxy Note looks far better than the boring dark blue that most people have IMO. Same goes for the Galaxy SII, the white one just looks so much better. Black is ho hum, every generic piece of electronics is black.

Totally a matter of taste and preference. As a girl, I didn't even give the white a second look mainly because I gag seeing all the white iPhones and GSII's on Hong Kong's street already. I've also seen a lot of white gadgets turning yellow over a period of use.
The black is good and business-like. I think people would just take me less seriously in business meetings when I pull out a white gadget.
For those interested in a white, CityLink in North Point, HK has them available and I've reserved one already for anybody interested!

Lately I like items in white or red. Got a white mazda 3 I just purchased, this galaxy note and a red alienware notebook. I agree its personal taste and subjective but I like having different colors. Over here most electronics are all black and you rarely see a different color.
Just came from Kwun Tong Shopping Plaza, there's a Citylink branch over there and showing the white Galaxy Note

Greetings to fellow member of forum.notebookreview.com - alienware section.
Cheers
Just got my white Gnote from broadway hongkong...but still waiting my free gift 16gb memory and extra battery....they surprise me.
Good by my Year old dell streak...xD
Bought a Note yesterday from phones4u, had to go through 4 of them before I found one without any dead pixels on. Just summat for prospective buyers to look out for, check the screens before you leave the store. Well worth it though, awesome phone
Just FYI, in the UK, if an item developed fault within 21 days after purchase, the customer can demand either a full refund or exchange.
I'm not sure if full refund works on contract phone, but customer have the right to exchange a faulty phone for a new one from the store within 21 days.
P.S. Enjoy your Note, I had my since Nov and still loving it. This come from someone who change phones every 3 to 5 months.
Yup, well the one I got now is perfect, I reckon they must of had a dodgy batch as this was apparently the first one of a different consignment.

Try going into a dark room and put a full black background and see if you notice any dark splotches. There are some Android wallpaper like No background I believe. This is a common problem with SAMOLED HD devices from what I've read. Don't know if you can get a replacement for that.
EDIT: Oh yes, what Note did you get Ceramic White or Dark Blue?
No, that is somewhat of a feature of Amoled displays, however, it's a damn sight better a display than the one on the galaxy nexus. I had one of those before this and I'm reasonably impressed with this one.
Oh! I got the blue one

I also went through 3 with handtec....all with dead pixels...
5 days into ownership....dead pixels
What does a dead pixel look like? I get mine soon also and never owned a AMOLED screen before.
I have had a single dead pixel since it arrived 5 weeks ago (white 16GB). But I don't care much because the pixels of the Note are so small that I don't notice it 99% of the time even though it's on a rather central position. Only rarely when I watch movies that make the screen go very bright for a while I happen to see it without searching for it. But it never bothered me when browsing the net or reading mail although I can see it on a white background when I look out for it and know where it is. I have had a SGS I for ~20 months before which didn't have any dead pixels.
Hopefully my white Note doesn't develop any dead pixels like my GS2 had before after a few months.
