To those that have the Black Mist S4 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got my AT&T S4 off of ebay. It said Black Mist, but the front looked like a dark blue. Is it supposed to be dark blue or a pure black color? Just wanna make sure. Thanks

It's Dark blue.

Its black not blue

Yup I thought the same thing.
It's definitely navy blue, not black.

Ok. Good to hear because I was alittle skeptical when I received the phone.

I have both and I love the blue. It's different. The face (screen) is awesome. It's like blue steel.

I like the blue, finger prints are an issue though on the back. Not a big deal.
BLUE....AO....SHIRO DEWARIMASEN!
Lol, get blue.
I know you don't wanna hear this but it's really just personal preference..but either way
White!
I saw the blue and thought it was just ok, that and I'm sick of black / dark colored phones..
Went with white. I always had dark colored phones as well, plus the blue looks more purple then anything! And the home button is a different color, which makes it looks ugly in my opinion.
I ordered white and I went to T-Mobile store to check them out. I left with a big relief since I still want the white.
It's of course a personal preference. If you have any doubt you should go look at them side by side.
White, it looks awesome.
blue cuz it's an awesome color

I have the blue, but went out today and took a look at the white, certainly better looking than the blue, however I still have a problem with carrying a white phone around, just looks odd to me. It's kinda like painting my house pink, eewww.
Also the blue is a finger print magnet. I have the mesh case on mine to help with that problem.
Thx for the opions guys.

I preferred the brushed aluminum look of the blue but the different colored home button threw it off. I went with white, it's all the same shade and matches anything

same here. I actually liked the blue a lot. but the metal rim has such a purple tone I can't help feeling it's gimmicky.
I have seen them both in person and after doing so, I'm glad I pre-ordered white.
I have both colors

I went with white. As many people said before, I am tired of having a black phone all the time. In my opinion the white just looks so much better. Again just my opinion.
Blue. It looks sleek and futuristic. Here's mine...
the post above gives a really good idea of the blue, i have seen both and the white one looks very plasticky (also there is light bleeding on the cap lights for every white samsung phone which i cannot stand), the blue has an elegant brushed finish, i would go for the blue again if i ever had to re purchase.

Want a black SGS3?

Well soon you can..

Same here. By the time I picked up my black case for it, you wouldn't even know anyway.
Look a button on last photo, its a pebble blue. Thats how pebble blue looks in darker light.
It's like the "gunmetal grey" rumour that floated around earlier, turned out to be just pebble blue in certain light. I doubt they'd release black this late if they ever planned on it.
I have the purple one with otterbox commuter (black one) so honestly you can not tell the difference

The blue still kicks butt. Wouldn't swap it for any other colour.

Pebble blue is sexy. When light reflects upon it, the beauty of the colour is brought out even more. I love my pebble blue S3
I still prefer blue

I would like it black, but for the moment my white is enough

I was pissed off that they didn't have black but now I am glad they didn't. I love the blue but never would have realized it if there was a black model.
Pebble blue for me. Didn't want white. I'm happy
Depends on anyone likes, in my case I am tired of black phones, enjoying my blue S3.
mm black .. a bit old school but still nice to have It on s3 nonetheless

Was a little skeptical on the pebble blue at first but love mine. Glad I got it over the white. The white looks a tacky personally when I've seen others using it.
I wouldnt trade my Pebble blue for a black. Maybe before I saw the blue in person and had a choice I would have prob went with black but not after having the blue

Black SIII

I just wanted to say how happy I am I waited for the black color to become available. And by waited, I mean bought a blue then a white and now my lovely black. I definitely like the black the best

I saw it a few days ago in the shop and I have to admit it looked gorgeous and much better than the blue one. I also noticed the plastic on the edges is a fraction of a millimeter higher against the glass, I guess they did some minor revisions on the manufacturing.
Bought one but reverted back to the white. Couldn't stand all those fingerprints. Even the slightest specks of dust were visible too.

It IS gorgeous...got mine via expansys a few days ago. Not that this should be a reason to love a phone but have had several people ask if this is the galaxy s4 lol.
Because of the amoled tech, if you disable the wallpaper using apex or something, the blacks of the screen are so deep that it looks completely seamless the frame/bezel. Currently rocking a minimalist white icon dock and it all looks very slick.
Highly recommended.
I waited very very long too only to grt it in black.i generally have always black phones i love the dsrk style but on the s3 it looks georgeus.
It makes the s3 look like a alien weapon

LoL that's a blue with a black cover.
My Pebble Blue looks very similar to that. I've got a black cover on the back of it and it's hard to distinguish both! Quite interesting!

No, it's black. The flash is messing with the picture. It does look a tad blue in the pic. I assure you in person the black is black, the burple and black look very different.

Note 3 Actual Color

For those of you who have or have seen the note 3 in person. Can you confirm if the black version of the not 3 is actually black, or is it more like the s4 and looks more blueish?
The only reason I'm considering a white one is because I don't want a blueish phone like the s3 or s4.

It is black, not black mist... it looks black.
Yeah it definitely looks black to me, glad I got the black :thumbup:

I used one last weekend, very very black, no blue crap
Mine looks more grey on front top and bottom bezel.
I just compared mine with my "black" Mega 6.3 and a SGS2, The S2 is really dark black, the Note3 a tad lighter because of the brushed metal look and my Mega 6.3 is the same as a "black" metal grey S4.
It is black, yes
I guess I'm getting the black one then. No offense to white, black phones are just sexy. I have the silver HTC one for T-Mobile and every day I wish I had the black one, every day.

The black s5 is Blue on front

If you hold it in direct sunlight you will notice that its not black on the front it is a dark royal blue. Has any one notice this besides me.

S4 is the same. I know that doesn't help you, but it was well documented with the "Black" S4s.

Just held mine under a very bright lamp and it looks black. I'll confirm that tomorrow (hopefully, if the sun is out ) and let you know!

It's black in most lighting conditions.. only if you shine sunlight directly onto it, you can notice a slight navy-blue tint. It's definitely more black than the S4, it's not at iPhone 5S black level, but it's black enough for a Galaxy device, when compared to the S4.
