i wish to buy a new s3. Butdunno which colour to buy. I have seen only white. Blue, i have just seen pics. Can anyone suggest me which colour looks better. I know its personal choice,but still..
One more confusion is regarding headphones. Im using a sony xperia mini pro right now.and i have been using a sony mdr55 series headset with it. It gave good quality music.but during one of my travel, one of the side stopped working and i have ben using the headset comingwith themob. Its also good. My only concer is now about the quality of the s3's headset. How is it? Does it give good quality?? Should i get myself a new pair of headset?????? thanks in advance...
I like my pebble blue gs3, it has it's own look with the brushed metal style. The back cover isn't as nice of a colour as the front, but I have a case on mine anyway so I only see the front. For the headphones that come with it I have not really used them too much but they look like a quality build, they are most likely as good as the Sony mdr55's.
I picked the blue. Something different.
The blue is awesome. I suggest going to a store and looking yourself. I personally think the headphone suck but I am still rocking my 5 year old boss in ear buds.

Well... it all depends on your preference. I personally don't like the pebble blue color. So I bought the white version then purchased a fosmon black and clear case from amazon and the phone looks badass now.
But again, everyone has their own preferences. If you're ordering from t-mobile though, just make sure you order from wirefly rather than anywhere else as you'll save almost $200

it was a hard choice i know i did the samething but ended up going with the pebble blue cause its just slick and classic
I ended up getting the Blue even though that's not what I wanted, but it has grown on me now and I think I'm gonna stick with it.
The only thing I don't like is that the home button looks purple, well actually the whole phone does at certain angles.
But I got a case for it and it's better now.
As far as headset, it's no Bose. But it's def a good set. I would try them out before purchasing one.
I ended up buying a bluetooth set, but only because they work better for me at the gym.

Having had my white Galaxy S2 for about a month, I have actually gone off the white colour and now wish I had a black handset. It's a shame as when I first got my phone I was in love with the white colour and I was one of the first to get one of the white handsets on release day.
It's stupid I know but I wandered if anyone had a similar feeling and wished they had the other colour to the one they bought?
Anyone want to do a swap? Lol
Go to the xda marketplace and post the request for trade, I bet some one would be willing to trade with you
You can always get a black case (SGP or any other) and get SGP's Black Glass Screen protector for the front. Now you have a black phone! They also give you a black piece to cover your home button. Now you can switch in between your mood. That is what I am going to do. I hear what your saying though. I love my white one but sometimes I want the black front.
I frikin trade u. Pm me! Love white phones.

That's not a bad plan. I like the fact that you could choose between the two depending on what you fancy at the time.
GOD! i love my white S2 after years of nothing but black black black , I have had three back S2`s and the silver trim around the edge of the white S2 really does looks the dogs bollics.
But each to their own
A nice sleek silver phone would be lovely but i like my black GS2.
My white S2 is coming in on Friday
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I absolutely love the look of the white GS2, but I went with black for two main reasons. First, (and maybe you can confirm this), I read that the smooth back on the white version made the grip less sure compared to the rough back on the black. Second, as much as I love the look, I'm not really the type that likes to stand out too much, and a black smartphone is a lot less attention-grabbing than a white one, even if the latter is beautiful. Plus, I saved about $30 based on the best prices I could find when I bought. Okay, that was three reasons I guess, so sue me.
But yeah, the white usually costs a bit more, as you can see here already, you won't have any trouble trading someone.
Love my white SGS 2 here using SGP with satin silver niiiice
I own a black gs2 and my wife has a white gs2. I like both but I do really like hers more! Looks awesome in white!

It's all a matter of preference. Go for it if it makes you happy. I know a lot of people including me who's like white one. Problem is that option was not available locally and I wanted a phone with warranty.

Haha that's exactly what I keep getting told. Which has put me off the white. Don't get me wrong, I still like the look of it but would much prefer the black.
I prefer the Black as I have got a Black One all my phones have either been Black or Silver.
My colleague just got a White one and It kinda looks Odd compared to mine so quite happy
Yeah and its true girls look cool with white phones
Argh, my first white phone and I love it.
But today I somehow got ink on my hands from a badly made pen and must have picked up my phone,
ink marks stay on the phone and are NOT easily wiped off.
Went from screen cleaner -> lens cleaner -> flash -> Mr muscle, which FINALLY did the job.

I got the white sgs2 after waiting for one month. I love it. I'm happy that I waited for it and didin't buy the black one. Looks awesome in white.
I like the blue quite a bit, but the white one seems to be grabbing my attention the more I look at it. Has anyone here made the switch and regretted it?
OmG doesnt matter what other ppl thinks..choose the one that you like more
ps.for me white looks better
haha I'm just getting some opinions man. Sometimes people switch and there may be something they don't like about their decision that can help me make an informed decision.
Sure it's a preference but there are other aspects to the colors that can help a dude decide. Light leak, dirt etc

gotta agree with him.. decide for you not for others. but i am also confused about the colors as well they are both very good. i guess i will just close my eyes and put my hand on one and buy that color lol
Eww I waited for the blue one and I'm glad I did. I held the white phone of my cousin in my hand. And imo it felt subjectively cheap to me after having the blue one! I would never never buy a white one, but as I said taste is very subjective!
Just go to a shop or friend and take it in your hand and then you can decide for yourself

is that your opinion or experience? cuz the thing with me is i hate it when my phone gets dirty thats why i was leaning towards the blue more
It is a smudge magnet. It's dark and glossy...I mean unless you have some kind of special fingers it gets smudgy.
I have a matte skin coming for mine to take care of that and a regular skin on there now that helps, but naked it gets pretty smudgy.

I dont get it.. how can the white feel cheap when the only difference between the two is color? If you closed your eyes and handled them you wouldnt be able to tell which is blue and which is white so how can the white feel cheaper? lol
I will be getting the blue though only because I dont like white phones.. on that note.

For me it's not smudgy my old arc was much much worse, but I did notice one thing. I put a Samsung flip cover to help protect it, for some reason that back gets a little smudge? But the original didn't

Honestly I can't look at the blue version in a direct light: that brushed finish it has around the screen becomes all shiny and looks cheap as hell, really hurts my eye. A friend of mine is getting it today and i tried everything to convince him to go with the white one, but no luck. I wonder how people aren't bothered by this, especially in direct sunlight...

That's what I didn't like about the blue one. The white is just a simple colour, which, looks much more elegant (if you consider only the pattern by itself).
Also, that after a few months I'd look at it and think "Ugh, why did I get this colour?!". Shades of grey, black and white are more neutral. If I had to pick only one colour clothes for the next two years, it wouldn't be blue, so neither is my phone.
But to be honest, the blue being dark is nice. If it had been that dark in grey, I would have definitely picked it. (I think the brushed finish probably would have suited grey better anyway). My white hasn't had any transfer staining so far, but I am slightly worried hearing what others have said. I'll just have to make sure to use only dye-free (clear) cases.
blue
i have had three blue ones because of various faults. after i sent my first blue one back i went to the carphone warehouse to see the white one in the flesh as the replacement date was earlier for the white.
but after comparing it to the blue one i decided to wait for another blue.
again there was unrelated fault and had to send back again, still waited for a blue and very glad i held out as i love it.
just my opinion, maybe because i have a white s2
Ok guys seriously we have to figure this one out xD
Everyone on the internet sais that white phones get really ugly and dirty/yellow after like 3 months of using them.
It seems the grey Note II is having delivery issues here in Germany, but the white one is not soooo...
well are the rumors true, is white such a unpractical color for a smartphone? What about using the phone in a very dark room?
Does the white phone distract from the movie or book or whatever you do with the phone?
Im having trouble deciding xD either i wait another 2 weeks for grey version or i take white version on monday.....
opinions please, thanks!
Just get the white...it's not nearly as bad as you would think. At least that was the case with my Note 1.....the back cover does get a little dingy after a while. But those are easy enough to replace. Or just get a case. As far as media goes there is no problem i noticed.
get a cover some white devices are prone to staining but not all and the note 2 should be using hyperglaze which shouldnt be very prone to staining
Who would buy the white if they goes yellow so easily?!

Well ive had the white HTC Sensation XE and it did turn a bit yellowish after say 5 months or so, but it goes completely clean after u just rub it with an eraser.. the material is however different from the Note 2 which is my next phone in Titanium gray,
its a personal preference to me, as i have used a white phone all this long so now i will turn to gray,
But i wonder if the plastic body of the note will easily catch a yellowish color, it will look really bad... hence i myself will not prefer a white Note 2,
It looks awesome in grey too though..
Blue could be a nice color too
I prefere the Titanium over the white, but I also think the Pebble Blue would look nice too
The titanium definitely looks awesome, but I don't think the white would stain at all from my experiences with the SGS3.

Black for me. Boring maybe but I'm not really a fan of white phones. And I really don't like how the camera and sensor holes look on the white face- they look out of place. I wish Samsung would extend the ear speaker to be longer across the top and put the sensors in the same slot. It seems it would look better, at least IMHO.
What I really want to see are the different cases in person; I'd love a nice real leather back and cover that isn't too bulky but think the flap may be annoying in every day use.
Nice to know that the note 3 will be used by a bunch of hippies.

White for me. There's always been an appeal to me with white Notes than black for some odd reason. (I've always been a black phone type of guy)
Black for me but will depend on the spur of the moment at the store.

I've never owned a white phone before. Are those of you who ordered a white one happy with it? I've been on the fence about ordering this phone until i heard more about the battery life. I think it is going to be sufficient for my use. Amazon has the white 32gb versions availabe so i dont have to wait for a black one.
Thanks for the feedback.

I was watching this review using a white one, that is about 24 minutes long. I didn't mind the sensors at all. I thought about that, but it's not such a big deal to me. And you can only get champaign trim with the white front. I did get a black leather back though, just because I didn't want the back looking discolored over time.

All my phones have been white lately. I get them used so little choice in color. If buying new, I'd go for a darker color (black/dk blue, etc). Same for the back. Hides the dirt/wear better.
