Okay so I ordered a back aluminium case on eBay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220167294721
This case has exceeded my expectations. Only though....the LCD portion of the case is protected by a plastic cover where as.... I was expecting just a knockout like all the other parts of the aluminium. I still don't know, if this is a plus or not, because while it does protect the screen, I was hoping to at least use the touch screen while its in the case, but at least I know its fully protected. Another feature which made me just love this case even more was the fact that the belt clip could be screwed with the phone being inside, many other cases either have a fixed belt clip (clumbersom) or if you want to use the belt clip you have to screw on a disc, and prep it. With this case you can screw the disc in 2 seconds and do not need a screwdriver or any other tools, it's truly quick fit, screw on, screw off.
One note: the finish I ordered is BLACK which can be seen from the pictures, it also comes in Silver, now it has some sort or tactile finish to it, kind of that powder coated, scratch resistant feel. I don't think the Silver version will be like this, I am sure you will see the natural brushed grains of Aluminium. I still don't know if I should have hosen the Silver. I hate scratches and i figured Black doesnt show scratches and I like Black, although I do love Natural Aluminium too, but I was afraid of scratches and if it appeared cheep, luckily though I am giving one of these cases as a gift so I am going to order the Silver one and choose which one I like better and give the least as the gift.
In any case the powder scratch resistant coating on the Black version is awesome and If after a week I feel the plastic cover that protects the LCD prooves to be of a bother I think I will have to knock it out.
In the pictures you will NOT notice that there is a Plastic cover... I know I have said this numerous times, you may thank me alter on for warning you.
Another thing that impressed me was the box the case arrived in, and the cotton wrap the case was wrapped in... exactly how my Louis Vuitton wallet shipped, very impressed, they really paid attension to the details down to the box.

I have to ask you about your 2nd pic showing the back side though ... what is that blueish frame around the camera area ???
It also looks to me that your device's back side is not of black colour to begin with ?? mine is a TyTN II & I don't have that ... it is totally black ...
Probably it's because your device is another variation of the Kaiser ??
BTW ... I also got the same black case arrived yesterday too

That blue part on the camera is just a protective film that is sometimes put on the silver panels to protect them from scratching. It is kind of like a sticker (but not quite so sticky), and it can be easily removed.
How heavy is it compared to the original one?
Regards,
Carty..
looks pretty good.. but does it make the power button harder to push than it already is?

well that answer one thing ... but...
if you look at the back of that device ... it's silver or lighter colours exposed where the opening of the back are ( 4 shorts & 1 long lines ) ...etc
that made me thought of other variations of the device. Since I owned a black TyTN II, that's all I know to go by ... is it's completely black at the back ... not like the pic.

upon closer look of the 4th pic ( D-Pad & buttons )... I now realized that it's NOT a TyTN II after all
That is odd, its not blu its the same color as everyone elses, I have the T-Mobile version which is not black, its gunmetal but the camera plate, is the same color as your, somehow the flash caused a blue tint.

Not really, but I prefer the Hermes (TYTYN) switches to the Kaiser anyday, I also miss the loss of that extra button next to the Power button.

that is so funny man, I always used to miss it too feeling around, especially when it was in my car holder, I am so used to the Hermes (TYTN) that I am feeling around for a second before I find it.
BTW did anyone else have the problem of the sliding? If you owned a TYTN then you will knwo what I am talking about, the slide is in the opposite direction, it takes tiem to get used to.
hey does the front plastic shield bother you? Do you fidn youself forgeting tis there atempting to touch the screen lol

Do you black/graphite owners wish you had the white Hero and vice versa?
I kind of wish Orange did the white version, I think they look better, even if they are less practical and hard-wearing. Anyone wanna swap? Haha.
I think the white looks fantastic. Black is kinda old school IMO (how many black gadgets have you had?) but it's entirely subjective.
White for sure! I had real reservations when I ordered the white Hero, after years of black HTC devices.... but I love it. It's s refreshing change
White
Is there another color besides white?
Kidding...WHITE is the color!
I have less than zero desire for a white device!
Regards,
Dave
I've had the white and was forever making sure it was clean!! Not putting it in leather cases as the leather marks the white, giving it a rub after using/pulling out of pocket. This is a phone! I took more care of it than my girlfriend!
Had to sell it as when it did get dirty it looked old and tatty, so went and got a black one which to me looks sleek and cool.
Can't remember how many times I got called a fairy for having a white phone?!?
White! Ive had no probs with dirt on it. And yesterday I putted it in a clear gel case, so no problems
i love the graphite one!!!! the white one is cool, too, but i prefer the graphite
I had the graphite first off then I returned it and got the white one and I can say I definetly prefer white. Generally in my experience others also prefer it. It does get dirty easily and quite often but I still wouldn't swap with black or graphite.
I have a white Hero , simply love it. I had the opportunity to swap it for a black one when i had led problems but in my opinion, the black colour and the white trackball don't match well.
Graphite all the way, pukka it is toooo
Black one all the way! That said I havent seen any other colours in the flesh
white?
Hi to all
I will definitelly buy a Hero in comming days, but i am quite torn apart about the color.
I definitelly like white more than black, but all some of your experiences are really scary. I want to take care of the phone of course, but taking care of the colorations/smudges every day (?) is too much to it. I want to play with software, not hardware
What about you, hero white owners, is it really so bad?
One day I noticed my white one had picked up some grease and ink smudges on the back. (I work in a greasy, inky environment!) I figured I'd have to clean it with Cif or something. The next day I went to do so and as I pulled it out my pocket, I noticed all the dirt was gone!
I think the Teflon makes it that bit easier for dirt to just rub off onto fabric. Plus it feels and looks great.
The aesthetics really are personal though, of course.

You were planning to clean with cif????????
I guess you're joking right? cause these chemicals might peel off the teflon layer. Especially something like cif.
A homopolymer like Teflon wont have any problem with nonionic surfactants. The Teflon is bonded well too so any harsh solutes should have little effect. I've known people to use Cif cream on the Hero with good effect.
If you do have your doubts though, don't take my word for it
is the graphite the same loike the brown one? i got the brown and love it

Have you ever used Cif before? It cleans almost anything and its not going to take off a bonded layer such as Teflon. You can use it on tiles, worktops or anything, but it doesn't take the waterproofing off.
A light amount of cif on kitchen roll and wipe the casing worked fine on my white one. I had a curry stain on it, yes! curry!!! The strength of the curry was more likely to take off the coating than the Cif!
Teflon has some applications in chemistry due to it's resilience to corrosion. It completely resists the corrosive effect of hydroflouric acid, which even dissolves glass. Cif is no match for Teflon.
Also, "PTFE's resistance to van der Waals forces means that it is the only known surface to which a gecko cannot stick". This is very reassuring for people who have phobias of lizards.

of course i've used cif. who hasnt?
well i was shocked because last week i cleaned my phone with alcohol and i immediately noticed that the metal grey rim around the screen and the hardware buttons got white patches. Some sort of chemical reaction with the alcohol , i dont know.
I also thought cif might remove the htc logo on the back and the label autofocus 5.0 mp bla bla bla ...
Anyway, good to know it worked out . i guess i know what to do next time i have stains on it.
My Black HTC One (32 GB) just arrived (Handtec pre-order), I saw someone on another thread requesting high resolution photos of the black model so I've taken some and dumped them in a Google Photos (Picasa) album. Free for you guys to view but please contact me for permission if you want to use them elsewhere or commercially.
This unit seems pretty good, no stuck pixels, no light leaks, no scratches out of the box. There is a very slight gap at the top but it's really nothing that bothers me and is MUCH less visible on the black unit than the silver/white. So far I'm happy, just about to root it so I can restore my Titanium Backup apps backup.

Is the screen raised slightly over the top speaker grill or is it just the camera angle?
Looks fantastic. Congrats

Naah I'm sure he doesn't use a One as a daily camera...
Second photo row, middle photo... my black One has exactly the same, the aluminum grill is just a tad too short, so you can feel the plastic.
And I have 2 very small dust particles trapped between the digitizer and the LCD... return time
http://oi44.tinypic.com/5m05co.jpg
More particles are visible in the pic but isn't it always like that when you take photos
Also this was with sunlight so the black looks much lighter, more gray.

I nearly got the black One but went for the silver in the end. Have the black iphone 5 which appears to be the same sort of material and that has nicks all over it so figured the silver would be a better looking device in 6 months. Damn sexy in black though!!! Oh and nice photos.

$4200 of Canon gear.
metal
The black is nice, but understated. The silver is real standout. I don't have Samsung but when you think of android you think metal and the ONE looks like some sort of android/terminator phone.
I received my black One as well. Received it Saturday , everything is flawless. Except.... One dead pixel, but I don't think its worth sending it back as as defects go its not too bad! Also all the issues with stock might mean I dont get it for a few week etc

Hi guys, Initially i had actually opted for the z3 compact and told myself the full size z3 was just too big and although i do feel its a tad bit bigger then i would like. Iam now telling myself i would be ok with it as the screen allegedly is awesome and iam all for bigger screens ,its just a shame the whole device has to get bigger too lol
Anyways iam now contemplating on the copper or white version? Which are you guys going for? I like the copper,its different but it also looks kinda pink-ish so iam thinking maybe i should stick with the white!
Thoughts?
Black for me. I didnt get a chance to look at the new colors for Z3 in person

The black gives you that no-nonsense look..
I do agree that if the green or copper is darker, I would have opted for those as well
green and copper are awesome colors.
I like them both and thought about choosing one of them. Still I opted for black, because the risk of getting fed up with a color after a while is non existant for black
I like all the colors
silver green is really good but I can't find it and I get no chance to look at "live"
I bought mine today :0 I went for copper, They only had copper or black and the copper looked far nicer to me! It has a sort of pinkish bronze look to my eyes which prob doesnt sound very appealing but its nice! I wouldnt say beautiful but its different . For some reason i love it on the sides but am a bit meh about it on the back! Over all iam happy with the color although would have loved to of seen it in white!
I went ahead and got mine in White, had to carry the tradition over from my previous Xperia phones. Quite an upgrade from the SP though.

Good choice Iam already finding that the screen on this LOVES finger prints although i guess ye always notice these things when ye first get a phone! The display is crisp and finger prints arent noticeable once the display is on but because the glass covers the bezels ye can see them on the bezels which is sorta annoying but i can live with it ! I would imagine with the white version they would be less visible

I could only imagine all the fingerprints and scratches on the rear of the black. If T-Mobile doesn't offer white or copper I'm not buying.
I like both Copper and Silver Green but only Copper available for Z3 Dual so I ordered this color.
You can always get a transparent case for the phone so smudges won't be so prominent at the back.. but the screen, tough.. I hope I find a good screen protector that minimises smudges.

Can you guys post a picture of your copper, whites? Just curious how it looks in normal lighting conditions.
I'm also between copper and white. I think black looks nice too and gives that dark-knight feeling, but it's just too monotone for me.

Here's mine in white, used my old SP running on CM11 to take the pictures with flash... Sorry if it gives any of you the wrong perspective, but I think the flash helps bring the fingerprints out a little more visible:

You barely can see any fingerprints with the white variant of the device, but the screen is another story lol. Besides, we have a fully waterproof device, we can wash/clean it at anytime
I had the black one and it was great looking. Didn't hae too many problems with fingerprints....whenever I put it in my pocket and pulled it out to use again, fingerprints were pretty much gone. My wife liked it so much she stole it. Then I got the copper one. I really like the brushed copper on the sides but like someone else mentioned, the shiny copper back I could take or leave. Would've been absolutely sweet if the whole thing was a brushed copper aluminum. Either way, I think the black and copper are both equally appealing to me..
My fiance and I originally tried to order the black Note 4s, but we could only order white at the time.
My white one was available last Thursday and all went smoothly but Best Buy made a mess of her
order so we ended up with a black N4 from Verizon for her. We then came up with the idea to swap
covers and we like the results. Now we're looking for clear cases that will accommodate the mic
holes on the Verizon N4 while still allowing us to appreciate our simple, yet beautiful & most likely not original
(though original to us) works of art.
PS I've never had a female share my taste in phones so this is the first time I've actually able to do
this. It's been a very bonding experience. LOLS! And she did not make me type this part.
I like it!
I'm doing the same but with a white spigen case on Black GN4.
I'm personally considering buying a gold frame to replace the black one once they are available on eBay.
Would be black with gold trim, very nice in my opinion.
Thanks! And you have good taste!

We may end up going your route after all as I hate not having a case on it (at least at first). Still uncertain which cases work for the Verizon model though.

It's actually super easy to replace! If you watch a Note 4 disassembly video, you'll see that the aluminum frame can be replaced simply by unscrewing the back and undoing the clips. If you'd like to do the same, all you have to do is get a small screw driver and a guitar pick (or plastic knife, or whatever will undo the side plastic clip).
Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OReK7M_6zg0
This guy takes the whole thing apart, but you'll just need to watch up to 4:30 to see what I'm talking about.
This is also useful information for anyone who scratches their camera lens or dings up the frame and wants to replace it for resale or something.

If so, how did it turn out?
Haven't done it yet- I can only find the part through authorized samsung part resellers at the moment and they are trying to charge $100 for it. I am waiting for the chinese manufacturers to sell straight from the factory ($10-15) on eBay. But it will be a direct replacement, super easy to do.

Guys just a quick update for anyone interested in a gold frame. It looks like this one is compatible with the Verizon Note 4...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/261701823333
I determined this by downloading the image with entire inside of the frame visible (flat, not the side angle view), and scaling it on screen to the size of my note 4. I then lined it up and it looks like it fits the Verizon mic holes. I believe its because they are the same as the international [N910F] holes. For $60, it's still a bit too much for me, but for some people that really want a black/gold or white/gold look and are willing to pay a little bit for it, it's definitely a great option! Also, it will keep you from scratching the frame that came with the phone for better resale value later.
I haven't seen one that's compatible with the T-Mobile/AT&T version's holes yet. Will keep you all updated.
I did the exact same thing today. I don't use cases and wanted a different look on my Note. Actually wanted just the black back with "Samsung" on it but I found none on Amazon that would let me use my Prime and I have need for instant gratification. So, I went with the black Verizon back on my Frost White Verizon Note. LOVE IT!
Thanks for posting this! I was really curious to see how it would like and it turns out it actually looks quite nice!
