Yes it does, It's brushed aluminium, although I would have preferred the black back looks a bit rubbish (and ipad like) wit hthe silver.
In a few months you'll be able to buy whatever parts you want on ebay and such, complete with installation kit. Happens for everything.

It is awesome.
I got mine yesterday and it's got a gun metal gray back to it. I didn't like the silver at all.

That was really stupid. I was expecting some actual hardware or software testing. Not some retard seeing if his 3g signal worked while he did dumb stuff.

Went to Best Buy today and saw the new phone price cards stacked up on the counter. The NS4G price was $49.99 and marked as clearance. I was surprised to see it go to clearance so quickly.
Yea, I noticed the price online the other day. I want my 100 dollars back lol

No but those prices are for new subscribers. If you try to use it on upgrade its $150

I was new lol. Still payed 149. Oh well. Worth it to me. I get frustrated with the reception but the reality is I love it.

Yeah. I don't have reception issues but no 4g where I'm at. But I love the phone so I don't mind paying premium price. There is just something about this all black finish and the screen. Can't tell where the screen ends and phone body begins. I love it

saw that too, just bought em at a sprint store on the 18th. Did get 175 per phone in service credits for porting numbers (125 plus extra 50 from rep, plus no activation fee) so prolly came out about the same. oh well.

There is part of the screen that is always a very dark grey, it is a circle. It is hard to notice, but when you notice it, it is very annoying.
It is kind of like having an image burned in on a plasma screen... except on this device.
I see. Thanks for explanation

Amoled screens don't get burned in. The LCD technology just doesn't function this way. It's just probably going bad in that spot. Samsung has 1 year warranty on your phone so if you can't get the carrier to replace it claim your warranty.

Strong for awhile
I dropped the phone repeatedly for a year(im a clutz). Then i decided to talk with my phone between my shoulder and ear while walking down the steps... i think you can guess where this goes. The whole thing is shattered. Still works though
Yea I like the 4S it's awesome and all, but idk it's to similar to the 4 for I can't wait for iPhone 5 to drop....I must say that iOS 5 is looking pretty awesome, and from what I've demoed it is awesome....you like your 4S?

I love it. I've been using the tethering on my Epic to download apps. I played Infinity Blade on it and omg that game is amazing. Siri is very useful. It's exactly what I wanted in a speech to text system. I had the original iphone (my first smart phone besides the helio ocean) which was horrible. I dislike the lack of customization and using itunes. The screen is much better than the Epic but you can see how overly Saturated stuff is. Everything works well. I am not an apple fan boy by any means. I'm studying Java to develop for Android. It's good to see what the competition is like. The apps really attract me on the iphone. I don't really want an ipad though because it sounds like a feminine cleaning product and because I'd feel like a douche carrying one around with me everywhere.

Both white s3, different batch like one week apart. And everything even the battery is darker.

Turn the brightness up, unless you have both set manually to the same brightness then you can't compare.
I think he's talking about the phone being physically darker in terms of cosmetics
U have unique version ;D no reason to panic. sell it for 1000usd in e-bay ;D
Seriously tho... if it bothers u so much u still can return it? If i was in ur shoes i'd b proud

the grass is always greener on the other side. same with phones now i guess.
I compared my pebble blue s3 to a store dummy phone and my battery cover was a completely different color. The dummy was lighter and didn't have the blue "chrome" look that my phone has. I have no idea if its because it was a dummy phone or if there are variations in different batches. Maybe the dummy had one of the defective battery covers, who knows.
who cares?

Spray Paint and electronics are not a good mix. If you insist on doing it make sure you tape off anything you don't want paint in or you could wind up ruining the Xoom.
You Might want to consider trying plasti-dip. It can be pealed off if you don't like it and is easier to apply. If you do a search on YouTube there is a guy that used on "another brand" of tablet, definitely looked cooler than stock and gave some scratch protection.

I got to play with it as well. This phone is pretty sick. The camera is pretty awesome. The zoe feature sold me. You can basically create a movie with it. Lol. The phone is smooth and very responsive. The blink feed is nice as well. The front facing camera is best I've ever seen. It has the capability to be used as a tv remote. The aluminum body felt great and not cheap in the hands. I have the note 2 and think I will buy this phone as well. The list of new features goes on and on. If they can get proper advertising, this phone will be a great success for htc.
