colour choice..do they both have sliver on side?

I seen the SG3 for the 1st time today, seen it in the white and blue (suspect this was just a display model, didn't ask)
I like the white, but also now seeing the blue this as well. Its hard to see on pics and I didn't check, is the sides both silver on both colours?
What I'm thinking is getting the White, and buying the official flip cover in blue it is a nice contrast as seen on a you tube vid

Also I;m thinking there will be replacement battery covers in different colours?
So ignoring the back cover, is the only white bit on the front, i.e. on the sides it is both silver?
cheers

almost 100% sure that there is a silver bezel on every S3 variant.

The blue one's sides are a pale blue colour

The blue one has a sort of bluey purple metal side while the hite is silver.
I had another look at the blue on today and i seriously do not like it and am glad i chose white.

Closed, Dupe of this thread here

[Q] Is white or black more prone to scratch

I am waiting for the Note 4 to come out in my country so I haven't seen them in real life. Currently I am thinking of going for the white or the black one. Since the metal frame is coloured as the rest of the phone, I was wandering if the black one is more prone to scratches or maybe more that the scratches being more visible on the black one? I am also wandering if the back on the black and white differ when holding the phone, one being more slippery than the other?

The black one is non-slip and soft coated, while the white one is hard and slippery.

The white certainly isnt hard and slippery at all, thats nonsense.
Unless your country makes a different backing than the units released in my country. I noticed no notable difference between black and white backcovers myself. Except the colour, obviously.

of course not..the material they are made of is same ..only colour is different.
scratches depend on your usability

I have both and I think that the black one is better build then the white. More solid, well builded and not slippery at all.

The back of the white one is not slippery at all.

A lot of reviews do mention that the black has more grip to it, whether it is all in the mind or not I don't know!
Interestingly I had a Galaxy Tab Pro in white and when I exchanged it for a black one I immediately thought how much better it felt on the back.
Maybe there is a slight difference in the plastics but it's only a theory, I can only go by my experience too.

Kinda off topic here but I urge everyone to buy it in Black. The contrast of the color against the metal sides is just gorgeous. Not quite as apparent on the white model.
Both have a great grip and I wouldn't imagine dropping it easily. That being said my previous device was an M8 so............

I find the metal sides more apparent on the white =p

The white is worse.

Eh, but it's like being the second man on the moon if there's a difference at all, the difference isn't big at all in terms of grip etc. Personally I didn't notice anything. But it clearly isn't slippery at all.

I've got a white one in a black case. The contrast between the black and white is nice. Before putting it in a case, I didn't notice it being slippery. But then this thing is so big, I was being very careful with it.
I was originally planning on getting black, but the Best Buy 200 dollar trade in expired on 11/1, and all they had in stock was white, so I ended up with white. I suppose that I could bring it back and trade it for black when black comes in, but I am getting used to the white one.

They're both beautiful devices. As I mentioned before the black does look a tad bit better though in my opinion. Plus I can imagine the white one getting dirty pretty quickly.

Surprisingly enough, the white one doesn't get dirty :good:

It is very interesting that a few people here find the white one more slippery than the black for some reason. I am looking forward checking this out by myself but I hear that the Note 4 will be out here in Iceland at the end of the week.
Regarding the scratches I would have thought that they might be more apparent on the black metal frame than the white one but that might not be the case either. I hear that the black one tend to surprise people for being more appealing in person because of the metal frame than expected. I am leaning a little towards the black one now.

both are gorgeous in person especially when naked, and it really just boils down to your own preference. the 2 colors are available from my carrier and white was just too beautiful in or outside a case. the black looks nice and is the best looking black Sammy phone i've seen, however, inside a case, it looked to me as similar to all other black, older phones.
P.s. the back of the white is not slippery at all, but despite having the same material as the black, i think this thread has influenced my brain to think the black cover is softer than the white's

I think they may have applied some sort of anti-dirt coating on the back cover of the white variant, which makes it more rigid than the black one.

The white Note 4 is made from the tusks of endangered Rinos. ?

Isn't everything in Iceland more slippery?! LOL

LOL
I tried both phones and they have same materials applied on the back cover!
EXCEPT the white note 4 is more stunning! and by the way, the white is not prone to dirts!
im so impressed!

Back cover texture

Hi there. Is there any owners of yellow model? Interested in back cover - is it matte or glossy? Know that white one is matte for sure.

The dark grey/black one is also matte so I would guess the yellow one is also matte (and the other colours too)

All of them are matte, almost pretty sure of it. If you don´t like it you could wait for a unofficial back cover to come out

Colors. So many colors.

What colors of Pixel 4 did you chose and why?
I went for black, as I hate warm colors like orange (the mint prototype was amazing1), and I would like to hide that horrible iPhonish camera. BUT I discovered that black is glossy and not matte...

For the first time in my life, I chose a White phone. Something about the black edges but the matte white back really stood out to me. Additionally, as you discovered, the black's glass is a glossy finish. Looks nice, but would show scratches and smudges when dust and whatnot inevitably gets in there. As for the Orange, I think it looks unique, kind of like what OnePlus did with the 6T McLaren Edition, but it wasn't for me. Just got my phone today and I love the way it looks.

I hard a hard time choosing between the black or white one. I ultimately chose the black one because I figured although the black is glossy, it's easier to get a matte skin and slap it on there. I'm the type to always be changing how my phone looks so I feel like one day I might be feeling a glossy phone, at which point had I gotten the matte white one it would be hard to find a glossy/glass like skin. I REALLY like the matte white contrast with the black frame but since I got the black one I can just get a matte white dbrand skin and this way it matches the white power button too. Not too much of a fan of the orange power button. In your case you could also slap on a matte black skin.

I went black because is one of my favourite colours.
But also because is symmetrical
I prefer glossy glass because of the grip. But I use a case so doesn't matter.

Got a clearly white one, I've always been an "all black" user but I love the contrast and the effect it makes on P4. Also that matte finish looks good.
Like it was said, a matte black skin could solve the fact that the black version is glossy. I got a dbrand for my Pixel 1 two years ago, never had a problem

I've always had black phones until I got the almost pink last time around. This time I got the orange one simply because when I pull the phone out of my pocket I want everyone to know I have the new Pixel 4 and crowd around me. Excuse me folks, ladies first.

Went for the orange one. I've had black phones the whole time and just wanted something different.

I preordered a matte black skin. It should look like a matte black phone, back it's quite flat...

Black, went with full body skin from clearcoat (mobile outfitters) available worldwide.

Really wanted the orange as it was the same shade force 10 use on their tents !!! My favourite brands of tent !!!
However ended up with the black due to the orange not being available in 128gb in the UK..

Question Nothing Phone (1) White or black

As the title says, White or black, which color to prefer?
Some say it leaves fingerprint marks in black color.

For me black. More stealthy and accentuates the glyph interface.
Ordered the black version on launch. Haven't received it yet

I just got the white version and I liked how it looks. As of the moment no fingerprint marks for the white as well. There's a built-in screen protector in front and also at the back.

White looks better in pictures, black (IMO) looks better in person.

Its a matter of personal preference both looks good with each have their own perks like glyph is more prominent on black while white shows more contrast on pieces inside transparent back.

Black looks so much better to me. I bought the 8GB/128GB version which apparently only comes in black anyway.

I've had two phones now and neither had protector on the back. Are you sure?

And it leaves fingerprints on both colors, white just does not show them. White is the way to go for me.

The protector is only on the front of the phone.
