Which color did you get? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just bought my Shimmery White GS5, and I was curious to see which color you guys prefer! At first I thought the White one was a bit girlie, but a after 2 days of thinking I ended up getting it, and I really like it a lot!

I got the black, i was really hoping for the blue however my carrier isn't getting it until the 22nd.
I'm happy with the black, but i'm gonna order a blue back and a blue case. its basically the exact same.

I wanna put the original blue back (when it's available) on my white model.

I originally wanted the blue, but since that wasn't available, I went with the white. I've always had black devices in the past and have grown tired of that color. Decided to try something new this time and definitely not regretting that choice.

The white one is too slippery.

Black. I personally think White looks too cheap. (And too Apple-ish.)

Picture of pebble blue S3

Hi all,
Today I was in a store where a saw the blue version of the S3 which seems much lighter, especially the back, as I have seen on the Internet
I am not sure if this was an old demo model or the newest batch but it seems that it was almost light blue
Can somebody that has received their blue s3, from the new production, make some good pictures?
I currently have a S2 and like its dark colour
Check this out, mate
It's actually the newest batch according to the guy in the video.
It seems Samsung has changed the original design of the pebble blue version to a more metal looking one with a light/subtle blue shade.
I think this looks a lot better than the model which was first introduced in the press shots.
The only issue now is that I'm torn between marble white and pebble blue; initially I was going to buy the white version but now I'm not sure :-/ the pebble blue v. looks sexy as hell now.

Got a pebble blue today and can confirm it looks like the one in the video. More gunmetal grey than blue.

What comes across in pictures is that they're still using the old color home buttons creating a mismatch. Is that the case when you look at it in person?
I'm glad they changed it to that color, so much better than the one at the unbox event. The original pebble blue looked so fugly

When it was available on pre-orders, the blue version was being sold as 'Metallic Blue' on Brazil. Now that it has officially launched, the new name is 'Graphite'.
Not sure if they changed the colors or if pebble blue really looks so much like graphite that they decided to change its name :|
Got my pebble blue this morning, it looks amazing. You can't go wrong with it.

I am convinced. I am going to order it on Monday.
Estimated delivery in The Netherlands is 3 weeks.
Putting my patience to the test
In Finland we got the first batch of blue ones this week. Next week more. I got mine already in white but girlfriend wants it in blue.

except in a dark room when the LED noti or the capacitive buttons light up you get a skeleton effect because of the white frame. this appeals to me.
New Pebble/Metallic Blue > Old Pebble Blue > Marble White.
First I liked the white, but after I while I returned to my original opinion: white phone's look cheaper then black/dark one's. That's just my opinion though.
I prefer the grey colour over the pebble blue. I hope that is the case across the board. The same guy did an unboxing video and the box is black. Originally the pebble blue had a blue box. So I hope I get the same one. I would think Samsung would stick with the same colour change which explains the delay of the pebble blue devices.
It's not in english. But check out the beautiful black box and grey S3.

i was JUST thinking last night how awesome it would be to have a grey version of this phone, and that maybe i should contact samsung later lmfao.
and then the very next morning this happens!!
still happy enough with my pebble blue s3, but would definitely like a grey back cover.
Its like the blue version but grey ha

Okay...stack ranking time....number 1 being my first choice
1) Brown
2) Blue (already have it)
3) Red
4) Grey
5) Black
6) White
The world has had so many grey, black and white products that having a bit of colour is great in my personal opinion. However, the red may be too "out there" for me although it does make me go "wow". I felt the brown is something subtle but chic and unique and I would love to see that one up close. But other than that, I am more than happy still with the blue one!
well if rich will buy the flip case to change the cover and play haha
own blue, left other 5 colour to get
but the flip case not only got those colour, still got light green
Seen the reed in person at the AT&T store - it's a really nice color with the pearly paint thing going on. Definitely like the brown version. I have the white, which is still the best option of the current three colors for us in the US, in my opinion.
oh man! i'm just currently enjoying my white, willl have to sell it now and hold on to an iPhone 4 (secondary phone) and wait til that gray one comes out... or the Note 2 hehehe :highfive:
I thought the age of colorful phone casing has passed, looking good there Samsung.
Grey looks sexy!
wonder if the options will be for the i9300
grey looks interesting, but idk my options would always be black or white so far I've been mixing them
Motorola razr2 V8--------------> Onix blue or something (looked blue, purple, black, depending on the lightning)
SE X1----------------> Black
SE X10--------------> White (black looked weird o.0)
LG Optimud 3D-------> No other option besides black
SGS3----------------> White all the way (blue looks weird for me)
I love the new grey but not much of an upgrade de from white haha

ordered the white version but still debating which one looks best.
I'm gonna get black because verizon tells me which color to like.

Black is best IMO, so sleek
If you hate fingerprints on your phone, then the white one is best. But I think the white ones look cheaper and more "plastic" in appearance. The black ones look better to me.

Verizon says I can have any color I want as long as it happens to be black....
I'm getting a black phone, of course. I'm a man after all.
I like white phones but I rely on the LED notification a lot!
I notice that on black phones the notification led seems more pronounced with the darker surrounding background, on my white S4 I sometimes miss it when I glance at the phone from a distance.
Stupid reason from some but it's a real good reason to choose black for me.

I'm thinking white, my Iphone 5 is white and has the same black bezel around the screen, making it look smaller, but I don't really mind.
White looks a bit more trendy and different. I've only had grey/black phones so up until now and I'm in love with the iphone's white looks. The G2 looks really nice in white too - grabs more attention.
Only one thing - do you think the silver paint on the back buttons might wear out faster?
I own a white G2, I have bought this case for it.
The white looks great, but beware! If you plan to get the same case (which is awesome btw) or any other white rubber case, it will slowly turn into any color it touches the most. Eg. mine is slowly turning into blue, because of my blue jeans! I keep it in my pocket.
Doesn't look that bad, but maybe some will hate it!
I have a white G2 with a black Diztronic tpu case and I love it. The white looks really nice and doesn't show fingerprints without the case.

Coming from a white galaxy s2 I wished to get the white g2 also but it wasnt available at the moment so I went for the black one. Don't regred it tho. Wouldn't change it for the white one now.

I have white in all honestly I love the phone in white it makes the screen and everything pop out more for me. Granted notification led doesn't look the best compared to the black model but I would definitely go for the white. Most people have black anyways and with most cases being black now it just doesn't look good with the phone being black. I have the otter box case and black on white looks amazing with this phone.

I was gonna buy the white one because the black version didn't look good in videos and photos, but when i saw it close up i was convinced to get the black one.
I went with black.
Black and red tech devices makes my heart glow.
Thus, black G2 with a dark red matte case makes me happy.
White with a white case works for me

Black or White?

My S4 was white. Definitely going for the black one this time. What color are you planning to get?
BLACK definitely, the white fake leather not sweet
Definitely went for the black.
I like the white face. I can always change the back or put on a case.
Just saw the white in person and its gorgeous

White looks great in this instance
when is the gold color coming out? any idea guys?
All my electronics are black. So black it is. Well the Note 2 was silver but you get the point.
Even though the white looks very nice (just got a hands on @ the Best Buy across the street), I like the black look of my Note 3, which is why I opted for the black one
Black one here. The White looks really good, but will only last a few months at the most before it starts to look dirty even after cleaning it.

$900 for a phone without LTE? Wow that's insane.
Preordered the black. I'm not a fan of white faced phones, the bezels stand out way too much. Look at the iPhone 6 plus, it's the most god awful gaudy looking phone with the white front/bezels. On the other hand I'm impressed with the white Note 4 and would consider the white, it's very well done and the bezels don't stand out too badly.

White phone owners

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 planning to get white but looking at all those sensors i'll go with black version.
Also originally planned on the white one, but all those sensors made the black front more appealing.
Thanks for the input. I will check the images out a little closer.

You nailed it about the sensors. They stand out on the white. Thanks for the heads up.

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.

Edit: i put a thin case on my phones anyway then usually hand them down to my wife or son.
