I bought it white because all my other gadgets and computers are black, something different. However I hear that the black and white is not the same plastic design on the back. Different material or design in the plastic.

I always buy black, but I wanted try something different so I brought the white one. The white feel more premium

Red, looks better than both.

im using white and looks premium.

Im using white but i would suggest to choose black because white can change colour to yellowish if it getting old soon..

whattt??? is that true? can white become yellowish??

I had the black version first and exchanged it for the white version (warranty replacement), and I'm glad I did. Black is beautiful, don't get me wrong. However, beings that the phone is a dust magnet (thanks to the screen protector), the dust was definitely a lot more visible. On the other hand, the white version doesn't nearly look as dirty, and I love the smooth back in contrast to the textured on on the black version, definitely looks more premium.
At the end of the day, it will come down to preference.

I seriously feel that a phone going white to yellow is a reflection of the owner. Nasty asses.
I got white, have had previous white phones and have never had an issue with the color. White looks more futuristic, especially with themes. Black, is just the norm.

HMM i think il go for the black, the white its really really nice, but you have to take care alot, from dust and particles that may cause some spots on the back. the black its like really elegant. with its glass on the sides its cool. we just have to take care of both well.

Not really, u just need to have it in a good case, I bought for my white ZL the INCIPIO DualPro... The best case for the ZL been made.
Sent from my C6506

I agree a good case is all you need to keep the white clean, but the best case for the ZL is the Case-Mate Tough Case I had the Incipio DualPro until my wife got the [completely redesigned] Tough Case for her iPhone and I was jealous to no end with envy. The insert material is no longer soft silicon, and thus it doesn't attract any lent/dust. All in all, it feels much more premium than the Incipio.
I've owned 3 white phones and always kept them in a case, and not one ever got discolored. Trust me, from someone whom had both a black and white ZL, the black is a DUST magnet. Not slightly annoying dirty, but WTF annoying. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Well, if you paid premium for your phone you don't want the phone to be scratch or get dirty right? I paid the full price for the phone and of course I have to keep it in a case, it is an expensive device to let them scratch in a few weeks without case.

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.

Are there any cases that coordinate with the "Pebble Blue" S3?

I've been looking around and it seems most of them just clash with the pebble blue color.
White, or grey?

If I wanted white... I would probably buy white. Just sayin'.
Try the rock cases. Black cases usually go along with anything
I feel your pain as I've got a blue one pre-ordered for Verizon and want to use an extended battery. White is readily available, but blue is scarce at best.
+1 for Rock case. I'm loving mine! (I have the light grey case on a white SGSIII).
you didnt really specify what you were looking for so heres an option. I ordered a grey one for my marble white.
They have a few different color options.
http://wrappers.typepad.com/ipod/samsung-galaxy/
Not sure if you can find it outside of Canada but the affinity smoke colour case looks amazing with the pebble blue.
Realistically anything in black, clear, or any shade of grey should look great. If you want to be different cases in orange or red should look pretty good too.
I have been looking at the Nillkin case in black with the multi color stripes on the back. Looks interesting.
We considered doing a matte back pebble blue case and still may, but its at least a couple weeks out if we do indeed do it.

If you could get a decent color match, I think you'd make a killing on it. Though that may be a difficult task considering how different the color can look in different lights.

Grey or White?

I am having a tough time deciding between which color I should get. Grey or White?
What color have you chosen?
Lol...there is a thread already for this topic in the Q&A section.
Anyways....personally, I'm going for the white one because of three reasons:
1. I have never had a white phone before
2. It looks quite elegant and will definitely stand out more
3. I dont think the grey one will go well with any colour case

My s3 is white. I like it a lot but I'm going with the Grey for note 2. It just seems more fitting with its size and more professional at the work place.

I have a blue S3 and I'm going with the white most likely, for the simple fact that dust collects in the crack between the screen and the bezel and its super noticeable for me, on white its hardly as apparent, plus I don't need to be professional

Don't mean to offend anyone, or start an argument, but white phones are usually associated with women. The GSIII is an exception, because the other option was blue (who gets that color).

I will go with white. It is more elegant, and not a fingerprint magnet. I looked at the blue color of the s3 and found the faux brushed aluminum looks... plasticky, for lack of a better word.

and the purple home button thats why i got white. i will have to see them both :highfive:
Grey, I don't like the black edges on white phones. The effect is bad on my iPhone, probably better on note since it's so big but I'll still go with grey. I don't dislike white, but I'll get grey this time.
Gray all the way.. I got 2 gn1 and had to replace one because some screen defect when upgraded to ICS and the ssc replaced my phone for a new one.. But they didn't have another black and gave me a white one..
White its girly.. I just got home and gave my wife the white and took her black...
And yeah professional looks does matter also... Can't imagine myself on a blue /grey/black tuxedo in the office and getting out of my pocket an extremely big white phone lol..

There are many other samsung colour that are more girly such as the red and pink
I'd far prefer black, but I just don't like the Grey. The grey looks cheap to me for some reason.
I'm getting white. White is a neutral color, nothing girly about it.
Besides, it'll go in a thin case eventually.

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.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
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.

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.

[Q] Note 3 Neo color: Black vs White

Hi all,
Right now Note 3 neo is offered in two color, Black and White. so which color you prefer and why?
From youtube I have learnt that the quality of material of both this color are not same. The black one feel more leathery than white. But the white version doesn't attract fingerprints.
i have the white,i think in visual the black looks more leather.but by touching it,i think its the same.for me white is more attractive
I would choose black one. Black as a color looks more classy !
And it won't get that dirty easily when compared to white one.
always black mostly in white phone if any pen or ink spot comes than its really hard to remove unlike black phones so always think twice b4 buying a white 1
