There doesn't seem to be any information about what the release date for the White version is? There is only the review video on Slashgear, and the announcement from Samsung that the white version will launch alongside the black version. To my knowledge, no white Note's have shipped yet.
I just pre-ordered the White version from handtec.co.uk for 449GBP+15GBP Shipping, but they have no expected date.
If there is any updates on the White version, please post them here.
got the white one on clove.co.uk ( not sure if its in stock but the site already let ppl purchase )
www.clove.co.uk/samsung-galaxy-note-white
ps its more expensive than other sites tho
According to the below link (first paragraph), the white version should be launching in the UK the same day as the black one. I want the white one, so going to just wait. Handtec has it, but it says pre-order with no date listed.

http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php?xProd=5864
I just heard back from Clove and Handtec on the white galaxy note, seems that Samsung hasn't given them any release date, so, looks like it might be awhile
why don't buy a dark blue one with some white paint? The white one is mostly for girls.
The info I got from Clove was early December for the white version. Take that with a grain of salt...
i got the black one as i cannot wait for the white one
i have asked samsung UK about the white one " no date for releasing the white one yet , it might take a while "
I also contacted handtec about the white one and they have no date.
I just contacted Handtec to change my preorder of the White version to the black one...cant wait for the white one
White one available now....... Ebay.. Ermmmmm $3,000/£1,880.88 anybody?
Oh come on. It's a snip..... Free delivery and they're not charging Sales Tax/VAT

Just bought a White Galaxy Note off Ebay. Shows in stock so I should have it next week.
Yesterday I saw several shops in Sincere Podium in Mong Kok - Hong Kong selling the white Samsung Galaxy Note, the price is the same as the blue one (~750USD)

And why is White only for the girls? White is as much of a eliteist color as black, more some in most cases.
I want the white because I work in the medical field, so I think that's pretty self explanatory. A big Black Tablet would look stupid in my lab jacket.

White Galaxy Note looks far better than the boring dark blue that most people have IMO. Same goes for the Galaxy SII, the white one just looks so much better. Black is ho hum, every generic piece of electronics is black.

Totally a matter of taste and preference. As a girl, I didn't even give the white a second look mainly because I gag seeing all the white iPhones and GSII's on Hong Kong's street already. I've also seen a lot of white gadgets turning yellow over a period of use.
The black is good and business-like. I think people would just take me less seriously in business meetings when I pull out a white gadget.
For those interested in a white, CityLink in North Point, HK has them available and I've reserved one already for anybody interested!

Lately I like items in white or red. Got a white mazda 3 I just purchased, this galaxy note and a red alienware notebook. I agree its personal taste and subjective but I like having different colors. Over here most electronics are all black and you rarely see a different color.
Just came from Kwun Tong Shopping Plaza, there's a Citylink branch over there and showing the white Galaxy Note

hi...
in an italian forum.... a member say that the white version have more light... it is more luminous.
he compared the note ....with others BLACK possessors..... and ALL TIMES he noticed the white version is more luminous.
can you check if your WHITE note is better than a black note?
i am really interested to know if it is true....... if samsung changed the panel in the white version.. or not.

Ive seen someone post a pic of 2 black note's screens, one was blue ish the others screen was white, its depends on youre luck pretty much I think, what the screen turs out to be like...
look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335161
My guess it is software related... otherwise I am sure 99% will be very pissed of..since most people have the black version...
I've got a white one and the display is very bright and has no green tint. Very happy with it so far but I don't have a black one to compare it to.
I did order the black one from amazon.de yesterday, it will arrive this week, so I would really like to get to know if there is a REAL hardware differences between the modeles... I bet my ass it is software related..there is so many power saving options etc.. which make the screen less bright... to save battery...
For spending this amount of money it is NOT OK that the white version would be better hardwarewise it would make me seriously pissed of..but as I said before I highly doubt it...
the possibility of white galaxy notes having better screens is starting to piss me off. can anyone confirm this?

It's highly unlikely. The panels all come off the same assembly line; the cost to set up to make a certain panel is so high it would be insane not to use just one to supply all of the Note panels. No need to stress yourself out over some random internet speculation.
yes, I agree it seem very unlikely...and would be very disrespectful for the samsung customers... who do not know what they buy.... it would be like you are buying a "pirate copy" of the original if the white would be better..I would feel like that...so I hope it is only placebo and illusions otherwise I feel very fooled.. and angry and pissed off.

I doubt they would have different panels and only put certain ones in white ntes, and separate out others to only put in black ones. That would be costly to do, and there would be no reason to do it.
The only way I could see why there would be any difference is if they updated the screen driver in the white ones because they are newer, or if the newer batch of screens just come out better. In any case that means the black ones should get better as well if there is in fact any difference.

this is a baseless assumption. its common sense because of the white frame which makes the display seem more luminous.

That could be partially right since black absorbs light and white reflects. Just another reason white Note > black
@Joker
that doesn't make the screen more luminous, it makes the device more luminous. as in the bezel and all that literally.
and i wasn't thinking they'd use deliberately different screens. maybe better batches, is what i meant.

+1, you sir are 100% correct. It's like saying the black note has better blacks since it's black and on the other hand the white Note has better whites since it's white...
The white Note only appears better since the frame is white, hence making it seem better.
As you clearly mentioned it only APPEARS more luminous.
I agree with many others that if you were to compare a black Note to a white one you would not see any difference...
Glad I got the black one though as people would probably mistake the white one for being a new Apple/Ipad which would offend me.
Also for movies & pictures the black note would be the better choice...
100% RIGHT
I have the white and the black note, the screen of the white note is better than the black one,
I have the same version on both, and i noticed that the white note is more bright than the black one, so i decided to keep the white one.
the white one was made by Samsung, and the black one says made in Korea by Samsung.
i got the white from hong kong and the black from clove uk .

I accept that based on your experience you found there to be a significant enough of a difference between the two panels to make a subjective choice. However, Until i see pictures of direct comparisons between the two devices, i will have to reserve my judgement.

Yeah the white one for some reason doesn't say "Made in ____" rather just a cryptic "Made by Samsung". The panel on this thing is fantastic.

One data point means nothing.
There is always variation between panels, especially AMOLED. Some other guy might get a black one and a white one and have the opposite experience you did. Until/unless we get a large quantity of such reports, common sense should be used.
The panels on the new WHITE galaxy s2 have been tested with calibration hardware and come out MUCH better that the BLACK one, for brightness AND color accuracy.
The site that tested them is eager to test some NEW black s2 to see if it is a new batch of screens or if it is just the white s2 that gets the better panels...
Maybe it's the same with the Note ?
That would suck.
EDIT: that same site just tested the Note and say that the screen kicks ass so if you get a ****ty screen just send it back. By the way, they tested the black Note...

It really does! I loved the screen on my GSII, but the Note's is better, and not just resolution. It's brighter and has more contrast. I have a couple dark wallpapers to help save battery (in theory) and one of them is this neat black/dark grey paisley, and you couldn't really make it out in the GSII, but it looks awesome on the Note.
@Latoc: Link please?
well this of course would be very depressing news...if this turns out to be true..it would also be interesting to know if the there is individual differences between the black models also.. When it comes to this I think I prefer Apple you atleast KNOW what the hell you are getting when you buy the phone, cause apple is more careful about their trademark and to keep the quality high. Samsung does not seem to care as much... they consider us customers stupid, "they will most likely not notice anything" then all the reviewers get the best versions etc...
Well I am happy with my note but I would really like to compare side by side with my own eyes with the white version...
I am always using the brightness on 100% but I think most of people will have it on auto... so I guess it is more important for some then others... but especially when watching media/pictures/video the brightness is important..
Like the title, did anyone have the white version?
there's one sold in negri, https://negrielectronics.com/samsung-p6800-galaxy-tab-7-7-16gb-wifi-3g-unlocked-white.html
just curious since the picture there is not clear, is there really a white version?
what kind of material is the white one? plastic or metal?
any real taken picture would be great
thanks before
I think they have use some wrong pictures.
The tablet on the pictures is a 'Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus'.
Also some Danish netshop has created this confusion, eg:

now THAT's what I'm afraid of. It looks exactly like tab 7 plus
the location of the camera is also different with the silver ones
and I'm still curious too as why is the white one is cheaper than the silver metal ones
I'm imagining that it would be cool if it's all white like the new tab 10.1 released in vietnam or sumwhere, I forgot, but until I got the proof, I guess I'll hold off 1st
I have the note 3 n900 and i notice that the white color on the screen has an obvious yellow tint so i compare it with galaxy tab 2 10 inch and galaxy mega 5.8 inch ... and both devices shows the white color like a normal white not having this yellow tent on white color like my note 3 and the white color is more bright than my note 3 ... and i set the screen mod to dynamic mod cause its the least yellow tint of all other mods like standard or even adaptive mod.. so i don't know ... is it only my device or all note 3 devices are like that and do u compare its screen it with other samsung devicrs

I had a Galaxy S2, had yellowish tint on the display. I am unsure whether it had two variants or not, but I had the one which was officially sold in my country.
I had a Note 2, Exynos, yellowish tint was there but in less extent.
I had an S4, Exynos, there was almost no yellowish tint, at least that's what I can remember.
Now I have a Note 3, I don't have any yellowish tint at all, and I use movie mode. Turning on Adapt display or Dynamic makes the screen irritatingly cool/bluish. Honestly I could not be more happy with a phone's colour reproduction.
However I read a lot, and I saw that a lot of people possessing the Exynos variant, which is yours, are having this problem on GSMArena Note 3 page. You can see for yourself, just go back few pages. I think it has something to do with Exynos models only? Cause I have never heard a person having a Snapdragon variant complaining about this issue.
You can ask Samsung CC to replace the phone, only if you can show them how a display without any tint looks like, cause they are both arrogant and dumb.

Keep in mind that the Tab and Mega are LCD, not AMOLED. LCD has a pale blue hue, whereas AMOLED is much, much more saturated.
You really should compare it to another N900 unit, or an N9005.
As mentioned above, this is a problem that occurs on the Exynos version, but not the Snapdragon.

hi everyone,
does anyone know if the verizon version of the htc 10 has different color models other than black, verizon website doesnt give option to choose a different color???
Currently the only widely available color is black front / silver back. There have been a few reports of seeing the dark grey phone making its rounds, but I doubt we'll ever see the white front phone through VZW.
