You can't unless you buy one off of ebay or give it some time for some China site to sell the white back.

Just get the black one and use white out
or
get a white case
or you can get a 16gb & trade with me. I have an I/O for trade but only looking for the 16gb. I do have someone wanting to trade with me but waiting to hear if he is still wanting to trade his 16gb for my I/O unit.
Don't mean to thread crap or ruin your deal. But buy a black one, you will be much happier. I have a white I/O model and the smallest amount of contact and the thing stains SUPER easily and is impossible to clean.
I tried soap, bleach, magic eraser, alcohol, and a few other options and nothing works. The only thing that removed my stain was nail polish but it also completely removed the "soft touch suede" feeling and made it much more plasticky.
I strongly prefer white gadgets myself, but save yourself a headache and don't buy the white one.
Same here on the white one. The white got dingy rel quick from setting it down and dirty hands. Mine is more of an off white now. Plus its only 8gig. I need a case badly

Really hoping my Google Nexus 7 case ships this week, need to wrap this ****er up.
Just received my new Samsung flip cover its fantastic
Talk about superb protection
Couldn't decide between the Green and silver but now glad I went for the silver

Nice. Still waiting for this case to be available here in Manila. Does the back cover add any extra thickness over the original back cover? I remember the case for the Note 1 added a bit of extra thickness in the back.
This thread is likely to be closed, there is a flip-cover thread in accessories.
btw, I am waiting for Orange or Blue to get in stock in the UK.
I'm glad you like it OP but personally I'm not a big fan of it. I bought the same flip case when I had my S3 and at first I loved it cause its really stylish and makes the whole device look nice but my issue with it is every time you wanna access the screen you have to flip the case and it gets really annoying after awhile. Plus when you fold it to the side the top and bottom attachment become more loose. Just my opinion but a lot of people out there like it, I hope you do too.

I had the blue flip cover on order until I found out that when they say "Silver", they mean Titanium Grey just like the phone of that colour.
Why they called in "Silver", I do not know.

I've never had a flip cover before or anything like it. I've only used hardcases og silicone bodies.
Should be interesting to see if it becomes impractical or not.

It sure adds a little thickness, but nothing you will feel. But the camera is recessed so the chrome wont be scratched as easily as with the original cover, which I think is a good think.
And my cover fits perfectly. I'm glad I ordered it.

phone insurance is for idiots?
you pay a 4.99$ monthly fee then when you need a phone replacement, you must pay 199$ deductible!
why even bother with insurance, it costs the same to replace the cracked screen without insurance.

Hi guys,
Just wanted to say that I got my Xperia Z today from Play Poland
It's just brilliant
Tell us more.
Kurwa No! Jest ziabiesta?
:cyclops:
Zaaaaaaaaajebista!!!
OK, Tell me what you want to know and I'll tell you.
I guess that most of the people are interested in screen quality
I have to tell you that I was terrified, when I first turned in on. It looked like the one that I saw i Sony Center. Totaly washed out colors. No blacks etc. Than I changed wallpaper to a picure with lots of black, and Tada!! Beautiful black and contrast!!!!! Sony just changed colors of the whole UI, so there is no black, only gray . Apps and wallpapers look great!
were there any memory card (micro sd ) inside the phone ??? 2,4,8,16,32??

Yes, I have seen it myself in real life and can confirm this. The screen looks much better then people expect. Plus that everybody now has their "expectations" set to low, they will be even more impressed. I mean come on, would you really think Sony would put a TERRIBLE display in their flagship? They want to capture the market, you are not going to do that with a terrible screen.
The screen is SHARP, BIG, BEAUTIFUL. Indeed, Sony has chosen a lot of gray instead of black (bottom nav bar + status bar + background in settings). That's not a washed out screen, that's just the colour Sony chose. I can understand people are confused by this, I was as well. But when I saw the screen in real life, I saw that's it's a good screen. Yes, the viewing angles are not as good as the S-LCD3/HD AMOLED screens, but it's not THAT bad as some pictures made you think.
I think that the XZ offers so much that those "not perfect" viewing angles can go to hell

+1 xda Mark. I saw the device at CES and didn't believe the guy when he said it was TN. Best looking TN I've ever seen. Looked at some photos online both on my buddys s3 and the Z, and the difference was NOT what you see in pictures.
Before anyone leaves this device because of the screen, take a look IRL first.

I think that the pre applied ones shouldn't be removed, and are quite thick and difficult to remove. So if the screen protectors in the box have normal thickness my guess is that it is to protect the screen protector from getting scratched. A scratch protector for a scatter protector
can you check whether i can use 5 pin MHL cable or 11 pin MHL cable ! would be interesting to know !!!!!!

The phone comes with anti shatter film its not a screen protector and you are advised to put a standard screen protector on top of this pre applied film.
Are the rma units brand new? A rep told me that they are brand new. My brand new nexus 4 has a small white pixel & it stays the same on every app that i go into except when there a dark background. But its hard to find. But it annoys me now that i know where it is. Will google charge 300 dollars if they don't see the white stuck pixel?
Yes they are brand new. I just submitted RMA on 3/22 and got the new designed 302k device.

What was wrong with your nexus ? My has a really small stuck pixel I hope they notice.
When I press on the right side of the back of my phone about 3/4 of the way down, the glass depresses/deforms a bit and makes a pop/click sound.
Considering RMA, don't want it to fall apart due to ****ty build issues.

My device had a weird white line in the upper right corner of the display. It almost looked like a crack, but underneath the screen. Only noticed it when I had the device in landscape otherwise it was almost hidden by the status bar.
Just to make sure they found it, I attached a sticky note pointing at the defect before I shipped it back.
New device is much better then the device I thought I was happy with. Much better battery life and stays much cooler.
Google rma are brand new sealed box yes.

Sorry to hijack. I got mine from a Wind shop in Greece since here is no G Store.
Would you think this is a cause for RMA.
The right one is mine.
You see the diff in screen temp and it also has black regions under the screen that are noticeable in white backgrounds.

Ok. I will. Thank you. Although it seems so different.
Another reason i don't want to rma is caise i think i got a great device.
It does not get hot, or buzzing noise or creaking sounds and i got the "fast" cpu.

I've noticed the Three page has gone up but all the details are about the Z2 and there are no tarrifs yet. Can't post the URL because I am a new user but browse to the Z2 page and replace Z2 with Z3. eg.
Discover/Devices/Sony/Xperia_Z3
I wanted the white Z3 but o2 don't have it listed, just black and mint silver...I had the white Z and black Z1 and I was happy to go back to white now Sony have made all of it white, but now I'm stumped what to go for. Black is a safety colour however I'm intrigued about the mint silver which is exclusive for o2...think I'll go to the shop tomorrow and see it and then do my refresh upgrade from my HTC m8, it will cost me £360 to upgrade now but can trade the m8 in for £220 so not bad really....It's well worth being on this refresh plan!

I see, that's a pain as I can only upgrade direct with o2 on their refresh plan...I'll have to decide between black and mint silver.
Just been and got mine from o2, they only had 2 blacks left so I went for the safety option.
Got mint silver myself, luckily they had more than one as the first had a really bad light bleed patch in the middle of the screen

Just had to exchange mine as the camera wouldn't focus, close up was fine but everything else came out as a blur!
Luckily a store by me was still open, they could've exchanged it for the mint silver but I wasn't too keen on it.
got my Z3 yesterday, but there are two dead pixels gonna return it for a replacement tomorrow, wont stop me buying Sony again though. Least it doesn't bend.

Hi,
Yes, it comes with the push in ear bud type of phones/hands free (I don't like those sort myself, but...). Also included is an OTG lead, charger wall plug with separate USB lead, and a screen protector (matt finish) for the front.
This is a UK, unlocked handset only phone.
No dead pixels on my one, and no issues with the focus on the camera.

Thanks, went and got mine today from Three. I love that it came with a USB OTG cable, it's something I never knew I needed on the iPhone but it's awesome!
I got rid of the screen protector as they are usually rubbish - it's just a shame it didn't come with the noise cancelling earbuds.

Yeah, I've not really used the OTG lead very often on previous phones - occasionally for transferring data, and I've used it to listen to music on wireless headphones. And just to try it out, I've put my wireless mouse dongle and keyboard in it and that works too. This was all on my S4, yet to test it out on the Z3 but I assume it's the same.
I have put the screen protector on my Z3, but it's a matt finish and is collecting fingerprints. I much prefer it without one on. I'm just gauging confidence in the durability of the screen with regards to scratches before I run without one on at all. My past phones have had Gorilla Glass on them and I've not used protection and they have been scratch free.

I truly would like to know this as well. Thru out the years, I have had phone with gorilla glass and have had no screen protectors ever and have had no scratches ever! Now, I am carful as hell with my phones but my z2 I did the same as I usually do and I did get scratches. Front and back. My only guess is, this was because of the dragontail glass which is not as strong as gorilla glass when it comes to scratches. I do hope that sony went with gorilla glass this time. Anyone know for sure?
