I have a mid night blue coloured note and just the other day I realised that the back of the phone sparkles under sun. Its not a lot but its still annoying. It makes note look less of a premium device.

Order a white back cover and use it instead, it doesn't sparkle...
Or get a flip cover, also doesn't sparkle.

No it does. Go under direct sunlight and see for yourself.

I like it sparkles. It's not so important
Be grateful that Samsung are not charging a higher price for a sparkling back or a white phone like Apple.

I just got galaxy s3 for t-mobile today and I just noticed like black streaks or dots on the screen when viewing a pure black background in a dark room with brightness on mid/low
Does anyone else have the same issue?
Thanks.

I've read some stuff saying these black spots occur in all amoled displays. Apparently its one of the drawbacks of this tech.

It's normal just have to live with it or exchange and hope you get one with less of the black spots
"All this knowledge is giving me a major brainer!"
I have this too, once virgin mobile gets more in stock they're swapping it for a new one, hopefully its better!
I don't think I have any. I turned my brightness all the way up and put a black background on my phone and I don't see any. Is this rare for new phones and something that happens over time of using the device?

No its not rare for phones with AMOLED screens. I dont think other displays do this, could be wrong

Not even with FB pictures loading and what not with the brightness turned all the way up I see none. Maybe I just got lucky!
I got a huge one right where the camera is. It's only noticeable when in dark room black screen. It's about one cm. Called store said I'd have to wait to get it replaced cause they're out of them. Hopefully I get one with no or at least tiny ones :banghead:

I have like three our four of them around 1mm in diameter, but like everybody said I only notice it at night or in a dark room with a black background. it's nothing that really bothers me because it's not just any black background but a specific one. I don't know what it is but I dont think it's much of an issue unless you're a perfectionist or have OCD. The only thing I care about is not having dead pixels. I had the vibrant before this for two years and the screen has no dead pixels or burning so I think Samsung can be trusted when it comes to the lifespan of the screens.

Everything gets dirty eventually. Even the gray one gets dirty, you just don't see it. If you don't think you can be careful or clean with your phone then get the gray one. It's all about personal preference.

Shiny grey gets smudgy as all get out. I might go crazy and pop a white back cover on my grey. This this is fast and furious.
Will the white discolor after the phone getting hot with extended usage?

Its, does the white version GET dirty? So much fail in that so called question.
tappin on the aokp running Nexus 7
My wife has the gs3 since launch and uses it a ton and it looks perfect still, brand new looking. Honestly she probably uses her phone way more than me and I am much more of a techie lol, so not sure how that works. I've been going back and forth about grey or white and I think I am leaning toward white... it definitely looks much more stylish, while the grey looks much more professional. I've always gone for the professional look, so I think it's time to go stylish......

If your legs don't get stained the colour of your jeans it's highly unlikely your phone will!

My experience was quite the opposite--they're an absolute nightmare to install. I ended up trashing mine and went with the usual two peels one.
