Black Galaxy S3? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Saw two articles on this today. Apparently a couple of photos of a black S3 are floating around. Kinda interesting but at the same time at certain angles/lighting conditions the pebble blue can look black.

Though I originally wanted a black S3, I doubt I would switch from the pebble blue if it ever makes it to Sprint.

I must admit, I too wanted a black s3 at first, but once I purchased the pebble blue and a case for it, I realized I probably wouldn't even notice the difference.

In all but bright light the blue might as well be black to my eyes... I would normally have preferred black as well... I'm a basic black kind of guy generally... but in this case, I barely can tell mine isn't black anyway... helps them I'm a morlock and rarely see the light of day I suppose

The curse of the early adopter strikes again!!!!

Still pretty skeptical of those articles. I think it's a blue Galaxy in a light that makes it look black.

White or Black?

Which color do you like the most for the E4gt? I personally have a black one, but i like the white better. Anyone want to trade?
Black doesn't draw away from the screen
I went black and never looked back.

I have a black but I would of got a white if it was available back in October. Plus, white ones usually sell for more used. Black is boring. I would of got a pink one for my wife if they had one too. I think orange would have been cool.

I want a Newports green one with black stripes.
I have the black, and I love it. But if the white was out when I got mine, I definitely would have got that one.
Yeah.. i would be nice if they did a couple colors. Its just a plastic casing, couldn't be to expensive to do.
I want a blue and red one!
i actaully like the white. to me it makes the screen seem bigger. other than that, id take the black. not really into multi colored phones but thats just me
Still waiting for someone to trade me a white one ... Does anyone know how easy it would be to replace the face if a white oem came available?
I would love a white one but currently have the black one.
My white one seems to get a lot of compliments and "What kind of phone is THAT" type questions (usually from iphone users ^_^). In any event, I like it.
I like the white one alot, but really wish we could get the RAZR treatment. That kevlar is cool.
Black phone with a dark theme makes the phone look all stealth like

do you have the white epic 4g touch?

Or the black. Let's do a poll. I just had to get a replacement and the rep hooked me up with a white, he says it us very popular and is sold fast. So i'm wondering how rare it is. It is a beauty ill tell ya.
Please complete the poll i'm just curious thanks.
Black...I had a choice, but I guess I'm weird. Everyone seems to like the white one better.

I purchased the white one when it was $99 on amazon... and now they're selling it for 1 penny! LOL Either way, I'm still selling my soul to sprint for these monthly bills and piss poor data speeds in socal... Sometimes I regret not waiting for the galaxy note on ATT, but then I look at how sexy my phone is and the EPIC development brought by T.C.P., calkulin, mijjah, and darchstar and everyone else!
I'm still looking for a nice case that compliments the color of the white epic touch. I currently have the CIMO S-line transparent TPU case bought off of amazon, thinking it would show off the white. I love the grip on this and how it adds much needed bulk, but I'm not feeling the "clear" of the case.
I had both,now i got white and it looks better because it makes screen look larger and i like the way android buttons are lit-its extra vibrant unlike black one.
If you wanna impress the hoes then get white one.

Started with black, gave it to the wife the day they released the white one. I love it because people only really know of white iPhones and when they see this they are like "wtf, where did you get something cooler than the iPhone?!" And I am like "there are lots of cooler phones than the iPhone, idiot." Then I proceed to blow their MINDS with Android awesomeness!

Titanium Grey vs Marble White??

Is it my or does the titanium grey look more appealing than the marble white note? On the og note the white one looked much elegant than the black one ... but now I'm debating whether the grey one looks better or I simply just like white :/

Normally I buy dark phones but I really hated the grey note 2 when I saw it in store. However it's all a matter of taste, you have to see both colors and make your own opinion.

Yeah, I got the white from Newegg after the $30 coupon ($649). Also, go to fatwallet.com, click on cash back, find newegg, and click-through from there to purchase. In about 45 days, you will have an extra (up to) 4% back. Best deal going.
Use the savings to buy a genuine flip cover - this way you get the color you want (minus the front, which is not a big deal at all).

Titanium Gray is more appearing and this is why I am not upgrading to 32 GB version and sticking with my gray 16GB. In my market 32GB note 2 is available but only in white. When I bought my phone there was no 32 GB available. Now it is available but only in white. Had it be gray and I would have upgrade it in blink of an eye but white one looks cheap from bazel and the back. Titanium gray looks cool and different from other regular colors.

Does the white have light leakage on the from bezel buttons like the SII did? That is what steered me to preorder it in grey. Looks more professional IMO.

Where is your market? A 32GB is what I've been looking for. I need one like yesterday.

I got the grey model because, while the white model is gorgeous and eye catching, I think it's novelty of having a white device would fade shortly after or I would get tired of putting it on the table or taking it out in front of people. I don't want to look "metro cool" at work, haha. I just want something classy, which the white is, but it's just not for me. I'm used to having BLACK phones and I'm tired of black phones. So when I saw Samsung has the SGN2 in TITANIUM GREY! I thought "whoopie!" hehe. But to be honest, the white is really nice, but I think in the long run the grey version will serve me better . This is of course 100% an opinion.
any color will do
Thanks, Color doesn't bother me as much, I just need more than 16gb. So there is hope that the 32gb might be in the states sometime. Since there in your area already.
Get a microSD card?
My SIII died and had to be repaired...I lost everything I had stored on internal memory (though I had a backup made days earlier, phew!)
Just a thought
I guess I will. I was hoping for 32g internal and a 64g sd card. But I don't think I can last until it comes over here. But I've waited this long, perhaps one more month will not kill me.
Thanks for your input guys and yes when og note came out I knew right away that I wanted the white one. Now with the note 2 I wasn't sure about whether I wanted the white because I was always attracted to white phones or because it looked better than the grey one. Looking closely at many pics and videos of people actually holding the device upclose I've decided that I will go with the grey one. Two reasons, when I had the white note the slightest scratch on the back was able to be seen and because there's something about those tiny little stripes on the grey one that intrigues me lolll

White phones are designed for people who just care about the looks.
Anyone who is a tiny bit technically competent who never ever put a white bezel around a screen. It is stupid because you lose precious contrast on the gorgeous screen.
Apple should really patent the white bezel so that everyone stop copying it.

I loved the titanium grey. But the prints and dust over time would annoy the hell outta me. Just ordered my second one in white with a grey hard case.

Satisfied with the color choices?

How does everyine feel about thier color choice?
I picked the blue, only because I didn't want a white phone. But I'm planning to take it back today in exchang of a white one. The blue one seems to look purple in certain lighting. Indigo at best. Fluorescent lighting is a big problem in this regard, but even in incandescent lighting the home button still looks quite purple.
For me this is a game of which color I don't want, the least.

I purchased the white, and am considering switching to blue xD
Mines about to have a case on it for protection.. So color really don't matter to me..
However, if i could have gotten a Garnet one (ATT has them) i would.. I'm a die hard FSU fan =0)~
I prefer my blue phone to the white one but I'd rather have a good old black brick. Eh, I stuffed it in an Otterbox but that blue bezel that still shows annoys me at times.
The white version, is extremely sexy in the white ballistics case though
I wanted black but we don't have that option so I got blue.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2
got blue cuz i was tired of all my white iPhone 3G/4/4S and Galaxy S2, but honestly i wouldve preferred the Brown or Red. I think the color choices are kinda weak, the shade of blue and red aren't the best, i never thought i would've preferred the brown phone!.
Ok. I got the white one now. And I actually like it!
I've been sarcastically referring to it as my iGS3. Also on account of the dislikable home button. You know, the one that should have been a softkey. If I didnt get this thing for just $50 I would have reached for the LG with the quad core instead.
That reminds me, you are all going to see sooo many noobs in here now because of that deal. I already see lots of "help I bricked my phone" posts. Lol.

I'm tired of seeing the white one. I had a white S2 for two years. I like the black S4, it just looks nicer to me. I like that when the screen is off, it kind of blend in with the phone.
Doesn't white hide marks better?
Although I suppose it doesn't matter if in a case.

Like you I was used to getting the dark s2 & s3, so I decided to get the white s4. Tired of getting black.
I never get white phones, mainly because they seem a bit feminine to me.

I had the Pebble Blue GS3 so I went with the Frost White this time around just cause I was a little sick of the blue. Honestly since the black on is actually black this time and not dark blue they both look fine. I think the white looks cleaner and stands out better than black, but it's really a personal preference, they both look fine, just depends how flashy you want to be.
I went with the white but now I feel a bit too feminine. But just the thought of having to return it just for a different color sounds like a pain lol.
Black one for me and white for the wife

If you're planning on getting a case for your phone, see which one looks best with black or white. I have the black case with a clear case...looks very sleek. The white S4 can go very well with certain case colors...it all depends...but this is how I determine which color to get.
You can't go wrong with either one IMO.
You racist a--holes!!!! The phone didnt choose to be either. You should love it unconditionally!

it has nothing to do with being insecure, people just have different opinions
I too feel white phones being more feminine because most girls get white phones and black has more of a man color feel...I came from a white S3 but now got the Black mist S4
I got a white s4 herr just because I feel it has a more premium look to it. But the black s4 is by far the sexiest new color they came out with. If you look at the back it has such an amazing texture.
