I can't stand them... they are a bad attempt to look retro.

I prefer a black phone, but I thought the white Sprint GSII looked pretty good. I had the black one before I switched to Verizon.

a friend got a white iPhone 4
it is getting lightly yellow at the edges, looks like never washed fingers, lol

Agreed!!!!!!
Much better in beige, you know, IBM PC style (kidding!)

White phone = hipster phone

Wanna be iphone.
My grandma beat me down and took my nexus. Sent from a jitterbug with beats by dre.

I love most phones when they're in white, but this one...not so much. Might look better in person though.

Ugly ugly ugly!

I don't understand the whole white phone thing. Maybe of it was red or neon colors imo that would be cool but white? That's dumb

I would totally dig a red one.

they are also doing a 32gb hspda+ black one.

In my opinion Nexus S in white, or rather black and white looked pretty nice I think that some phones do look better in white but there are very few.
This one looks like crap and I hope it's just someones photoshop work.

Stupid... but of course now my girlfriend wants one. At least she can respect the hardware/software I guess!

The sole reason why white doesn't make sense is because the black soft key area won't blend in with the bottom of the phone anymore. Same with the top notification bar.
It doesn't look uniform anymore from the bezel to the screen. Not only does the result look ugly, but it now seems as if the screen is somewhat smaller.

Agreed. Most likely it'll stay black because its a Super AMOLED HD screen.
Whites = use a lot of power on AMOLED screens whereas blacks use none.

Picture of front & back. It's a different picture than the one I posted yesterday. Looks a bit better.

Pictures: My white Evo with a black battery door

So I did this just over a week ago. I thought about how this would look ever since I bought the phone. Originaly I didnt want white, but it grew on me quick, and I love my white Evo. BUT.....I love this SOO much more!! Wish I would have done this the first day. I think Sprint/HTC should have sold them this way themselves. On to the pics!!

So you've got an oreo
nice it looks great
...did you get a free cover from the store?
That does look pretty slick. I like it.
An "orevo" to be precise. It look like the Nike edition HTC Evo.
I need to find someone to trade me a white evo so i can have this combination...
Nice!!!

that looks really good! now im really jealous of the guys with a white evo...
Hahaha yes! I've had mine like that for like 3 weeks. The sprint stores will just give you a battery door if you ask nicely (that's what I did). I walked right out of the store with an Orevo
that is pretty sick. Kinda jealous.
this is exactly how mine looks, though i was the only one! storm trooper look!
Storm trooper sound a lot better than orevo

Man, I wish i had a white battery door
That does look pretty sick. Very Stormtrooper Chic.
But how about my clear one?
This doesn't remind anyone else of the look of the iphone 4? Black front and back, with silver'ish sides
I like the white on black look. Reminds me of a thread on Android central where someone shaved the black off the edge to expose the red.

[Q] White Galaxy Nexus Coming In Feb. Are You Getting It?

Keep hearing rumors of a white model coming pretty soon. Will you hold on to your silver model or will you be coming over to the white side?
Looks pretty sleek.

Looks pretty nice, but by Feb. I'll be probably be more hyped up about the Galaxy S III and whatever other phones are announced at CES.
Ewww. Reminds me of apple.

I would want one as long as it was like the nexus s, white back and sides and an all black front pane. If its like those renders I'll stick with my silver one .

Looks bland to me. For some reason my eyes refuse to accept that image
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
How real could this be?
The ICS color scheme doesn't really match that of this white version and I feel like by the time Feb rolls by there will be a phones that are already a lot better than the Galaxy Nexus. It just doesn't make any sense that they would release a white version, even if they did I think it would just be the back that's white.
One could give me that as a present and I'd sell it instantly.
White Nexus? With a Hello Kitty image on the backcover? Not with me.
I actually really like that, but I'm also happy with what I've got now
I don't know why but i don't like it my silver blue is very nice perfect for it

I agree it looks really nice,
Wow seems like a lot of people on both sides. I'm surprised so many of you actually like the White. I like all my electronics to be black.
Look nice......if you were a girl
Some phones look good in white, I don't think Galaxy Nexus is one of them. Works well with the black.
Picture looks like a bad photoshop.. but im pretty sure that if a white one comes out, its gona look waaay better.
I think I like more how I can't tell on black backgrounds where the screen ends and the phone begins.

Galaxy Note II Getting Two New Colors, Amber Brown And Ruby Wine

I think I'll still to titanium gray. Still, with a flip case, you can have any color you wish.

I would like an all black version. I really liked on my Galaxy Nexus where you couldn't tell where the screen started and ended.

i feel the same exact way but since the only options were titanium gray or white i went with white
The Amber is awesome! Too bad you can switch out housings on the fly. Never the less I still love my titanium grey. The white is cool and all but the textured look of the colored models rocks imo.
I liked the two tone contrast of the galaxy nexus white edition so im rocking the white's housing bezel and battery cover on my titanium!

I went with the grey. I wouldn't mind a colored back just as long as the front was black. Like the old 3G iPhone.
I personally would have jumped all over a pebble blue device.
i want the korean girl. (cause the colors are fugly)
I was really hoping for a blue one like the S3 but I'm happy with my gray one
noted for future reference on my Note 2

Possible screen issue with brand-new Galaxy S4 Mini

I recently (as in yesterday) got a brand new S4 Mini SGH-i257m. It was completely unopened, still sealed. Unfortunately, I may have some sort of issue with the screen .. but I'm not entirely sure. When I'm looking at a gray or dark gray screen, there appears to be a lot of discoloration and ditherting.
It's most noticeable when looking at a solid gray colored screen, such as the background in SD Maid. It doesn't look like a solid gray at all. Even pure white screens have a "dirty", dithered tinge to it. I know it's not burn-in. And I know I don't have a dirt and grease covered screen as I just got it yesterday. Even after wiping it down with a microfibre cloth, the effect is still there.
Is this normal? Do all S4 mini screens have this effect? Should I just get used to it (I probably can't unfortunately and will have to sell it), or try and get it repaired?
Yes it's normal for amoled screens...first i thought the same thing...?if you do a color test...you don't see them...you can see them only with grey colors
P.s sorry for my English
Whites can look yellow-ish. And as I've never used anything with a better screen I couldn't compare, but to me my screen doesn't seem as bad as yours. Everything is clear enough, no grease mark looking screen... Maybe watch a couple of YouTube videos of the s4 mini to compare yours. But it doesn't sound right to me... It may not be a 720p or 1080p screen but it's still clear enough.
Help!!! S4 mini screen white
Hi,
I have a Samsung galaxy s4 mini. it was working completely fine and all of a suddenly the screen just went white. I can interact with the screen and I can hear when I'm pressing things but the screen just stays white. I've tried taking the battery out and restarting it. after the start up logo appears the screen just turns white. I can get into download mode and I can see the screen.
'
what could be the issue.

It's normal, it's due to the non-standard subpixel layout:

That's really unfortunate, as I really like everything about the S4 mini, except for the way solid colors look like a dithered mess. Maybe I'll just get used to it ..
Follow-up for anyone who cares .. I got my hands on another S4 Mini, and the problem is still present on this one, but much less noticeable. It seems the new one I got has an especially bad problem with this issue. I will see if I can get it replaced with Samsung ..

Mirror Purple exterior color in close look

see post bellow
This color is something else!. Shifting from mirror grey to purple indepence of environment.
Device looks very expensive from any corners. Specially nice to see a black screen with grayish purple metal frames. Basically sometimes it gives exactly same bmw/mercedes purple windshield reflections lmaoo
Another choice was a white. (Didn’t like aluminum frames in close viewing point, but very nice on a sun thought, because light aluminum frame color shifting to white and matching white back cover)

I originally wanted the Black but didn’t find it in stock when ordering online, so went for the Purple ahead of the white as I don’t like seeing white frames around the bezels when consuming media content.
And Boy was I happy I that I couldn’t find the black in stock!! The Purple is so gorgeous and look very expensive.
I’m about to apply a trusted clear skin to the back as it’s so unfair not to enjoy the Colour of this phone as well as it’s feel in the hand.

Lmao my previous Xperia 1 was in black....it was a nightmare... constantly dusty and fingerprinted.
This is fast unboxing for Xperia 1ii purple version
The purple is nice but not a fan of the black buttons/fingerprint reader. Would have been better if they were matching the colour of the phone.
Purple looks great! Though I wasn't a fan of the chrome look in different lights. I went with the black especially when I read about the paint peeling off for white/purple variants.
I'm in the US so I have the black version but I really want the purple one. I never thought I would say I wanted a purple phone but man is it sharp. I'm trying hard to keep myself from ordering a 2nd one in purple.

But after sony release new version of US firmware everything went like on previous Xperia Devices... smooth. Now I have at52 with US a51 firmware and my favorite color !

How did you flash the US firmware on to the AT52?
And which FW is the new one?
Thank you.
