White Nexus S - Nexus S General

New white Nexus S pics leaked. what do you think? i copied this over from AndroidCommunity.com http://bit.ly/hS1z34
It appears that the BestBoyZ are at it again. Over in Germany there's been a leak of a supposed white-backed Samsung Nexus S. This Google phone has been the firecracker of the past few weeks as far as speed and overall fun factor go here in the states, now it's in white? Man, it's like they're in there own little world, these Google phones.

Is white the new white? Case color offerings seem to be all the rage these past few weeks, with several phones leaking the idea that their battery covers, back cases, and entire cases would be offered in more than just black. This Nexus S appears to have only a white back with a black front, giving it a rather unique look for such an already-wild device.

The power button and the volume rocker (Im assuming) is white as well. I will be grabbing one as well as soon as it becomes available.

Don't like it. Love the sleek all black look of the current NS.

I think it would be cool to put a black back on this, so you have a black NS with white buttons. Panda Edition.

lmao
panda edition lol would make millionsjust off of that lol with a save the pandas on the box lol...
but i love white phones and wished the whole thing was white , i think they left the front black so that way when u have the dark wallpapers you cant see the differnce in screen and phone witch i love... if it was all white i would be down to trade no problemo... long live the nexus one still best all around i think...

Can you order "replacement" white back for a black phone?
Sent from my Nexus S

Definitely loving the white back! It's like a yin-yang sorta thing.

i took some time to think about it, but i prefer it all black.

Wouldn't "Panda Edition" be all white with black buttons?

Not a fan of white phones but it would look better if the whole phone was white.

I shall call you Bumblebee!!!

Got bored after having a red housing for a while, so I decided to change it.
Let me know what you guys think. Any suggestions? What colors would you
like to see. Only took me about 3 days for primer, paint, and clear coat.
****Camera bezel is all chrome color, and kickstand is flat black. Forgot to mention that in original post.

That as got to be the hottest mod yet! How'd you do it?
Bro that looks great, I would like to see titanium-like color.
Sent from my Evo [CM7] running Pure Google™
Thanks all. The process isn't all that difficult to one thats familiar with painting and modding their electronics. Ive been painting xbox 360s and figured that the back housing on the EVO is just smaller but really the same concept. I wish I had actual auto paint available and the skill to use it cause I know it would look 1000x better. This is just simply an primer, an enamel, and flat clear coat. Sad to say but over time the clear coat and paint will come off and I'll be back at square one. But thanks for the praises so far.
Im not hating brah, but do you think that clear is going to hold up? I mean with use and all.. Does it have a hardener in it?

Dont worry I know where youre coming from. And I agree 100% that it will not hold up in the long run.
What you should do is run the matted blue theme, and paint it to match. Go for the full matted blue look. Looks great as is though, if a bit bright

Red is what color I had before. My co-workers said the phone looked like a pair of Jordans. I will post pics of the Red in the morning.
Automobile Paint Markers
There is a range of markers which apply auto enamel, from Uchida , called DecoColor - opaque paint marker. http://tinyurl.com/35kmq6t
Nice contrasting look btw.
That looks sick! I can barely make a dash of red through the speaker holes, but it's a minor quibble. This looks amazing. If you can get a more permanent application set, I bet a lot of people would give good money for this mod. Well done. Very impressive.
Swyped from my EVO
Its a bumblebeevo! Looks nice! Id like mine to have that light, glow in the dark green.
That is awesome, im going to try this on mines

Do keep in mind that if you have to take your phone to sprint, they will most likely flag your phone as "Damaged beyond repair" and thus causing you to claim insurance. Yet again I stress, this WILL void your warranty.

how did you do the chrome around the camera?
Simply did a wet sand and all the red came off

SGS2 - Black or White?

This may seem a bit odd but I'd still like to hear your opinions please...
I've had a black sgs2 for a couple of months, rooted and custom ROM etc.
My other half has just received a white sgs2 upgrade but she rather keep he old Nokia and has given me the opportunity to keep it and sell my black one...
Which one do i keep (without considering white one may sell for more etc)?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
why does she want to keep an old nokia and throw away the best phone ever build?
I think the white one sells for alot more because its newer and not rooted/custom roms.
But its all personal preference, if you like the white one more, then keep the black one
Wouldn't have thought it would be worth more cause of the colour. If it does make more I would definitely trade that few pound for the classy white look. I've got the white one and bought some skins for it. My favourite being white sgs2 with a black vented cover. Looks really smart with the white showing thru the black vent wholes. Just my opinion and preference, but hope this helps mate!

prefer the black one, white phone gets messy in time
i think i prefer the look of the black one, but ultimately the white one would sell for a little more! (blame apple)
i prefer the black one too..........the back of the white phone is flat and slippery.......
Black definitely.
I was really really disappointed in Samsungs galaxy S II white version. The colour and feel with the silver aluminium on the phone looks tacky and cheap. They did an awesone job with the Galaxy S white version. That one was actually called i9000 ceramic white.....whereas the sgsII really doesn't look like a 500pound phone ....

I think I'll stick with my black one then!
OP find out if its has NFC, and if you fancy such a device then sell yours.
One other thing is it the 16GB or 32GB?.
Blacks best any how
I personally bought a white one as I always wanted a white phone
I'll suggest you to keep which ever color you like.

Silver to Black attempt

I bought the HTC One in silver since it was the only colour stocked by O2. But i do really prefer my phones in black so tried making a sticker for the front and back. Here's my attempt, its not perfect but what do you guys think?

I don't think so. You can see some air bubbles under the sticker and the seams from the white dividers on the top and bottom
Sell This
Can you describe how you did this and or sell a kit? This would make me feel better about pre-ordering a silver One.
Surely OP will deliver!
Im a part time graphics designer and have access to a vinyl plotter and endless types of vinyl. So i got to work by creating a template of the front/back for the plotter, loaded the matt black vinyl and let the plotter do the rest.
The hard part was measuring every aspect of the fone, as you can see for the front camera n sensors I got the measurements slightly wrong.
In the future i would love to try carbon fiber vinyl on this.

i willingly could buy your silver device if you dont like it even its not announced yet offcialy in my country. just checkin' picks
I don't care about black or silver.
The main thing is, the surface is not shiny.
That's why I always liked the phones from HTC (my One is on the way )
would you be willing to start making more of these and selling them?!
I think a matte sky blue...a la Volvo's blue in their performance line...but matte or satin would look amazing on the One.

BLACK OR WHITE s4?

Hello everyone....Galaxy S4 is now almost available everywhere and most of you have must have pre-odered and received your new S4 by now!
I wanted to know...which color did you get or which color will you prefer and why
Black Mist or White Frost?!?
I always thought black phones looked better.
It just seems classier. I definitely thought so here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaOcycocR0Y
Same here BLACK MIST
always thought white phones look like toys.
Yeah I think the same...Black seems to be more sexy And also the texture is more visible on the Black, which I kind of like
i feel like the white s3 was so popular because none of the other choices were black. lol
now that there's a black, more people will want that.
Agree

I has the white s3 and hated it. Looks cheap and tacky. The darker colours are so much better
I think samsung itself prefers white as all accessories included in the box are allways white no matter the phone is white or black also I noticed that if you remove the back cover the phone is covered with white internal

Black. Any other colour distracts me.I haven't completely got used to the blue on my s3 XD
¡So say we all! From my GT-I9300
white makes cheap looks even cheaper
I like black also bcoz the screen looks much more vivid and sharp with black bezel. And when the screen is turned off, it kind of merges with a the black bezel around it and the phone looks much more beautiful

Much better than the green one that has been posted in another thread.

I wonder if it's that coated paint like on the black that can chip or like the silver.
seen this in person, it looks A LOT better IRL than it does in photos... might be coming to Canada
anodized i'm sure... I wonder if we could get our aluminum anodized and make our own colors.... Of course it would have to be taken apart but hey, it could probably be done. I know a guy who anodizes, hmmm.
Red with a red bumpers would be hot!
That would have been nice to have. I wish HTC had offered the Developer Edition in special colors instead of the same silver and black. That would have been nice way to differentiate.
