It sure looks black to me. I did a side by side compaison with my S2 that is carbon black and they look exactly the same even under a bright light.

Its black BUT if you take it out in the bright sun and get it just right you will see the blue sparkle.

Yea I know they should of just called it black. Kinda of dumb naming carbon blue and nobody can really tell a difference.

The way the at&t rep explained it to me was the metal edge is where the 'carbon blue' comes from. Mine does have a bluish tinge and the back is black.

If you hold it to the sun there are blue sparkles on the back

My lil 4 years old nephew: black... no.... blue....no...black...no lol

I see the blue sparkles all over my Note's back in light. I love it. Reminds me of space. Even when I'm not in much light, it looks closer to gunmetal blue than black. Everyone at the local AT&T stores calls it black though, but then again the face is black.

Anyone with the 'BLACK' phone care to chime in. What color is your bezel?

The back is very dark blue with light blue sprinkles, display glass is black, and the bezel is what I would describe as a reflective anthracite.

What skin are you using?

Haven't seen a thread on this yet, and I'm curious as to what everyone's using.
I'm using aluminum, mainly because I like the shade of blue that it changes all of the toggles and buttons to.
Anyone else?
I like the Matte because of the black weather clock

I just started aluminum cuz I saw that it turns focuses blue. Not my favorite blue, but any blue is better than green IMO. I'm always trying to get things themed blue. And it looks like I have a new friend lol (fpineda)

I have reading comprehension issues. Thanks for helping him out properly
I prefer the matte skin, get rids of most of the green, and blue they use is close to stock ics, if not stock ics. plus the weather clock is slick.

Stock for now :-\ I like matte, but not a fan of the clock at all..

Matte. They desperately need a skin with red glow, though... I have a phone, made by HTC, whose colors are red and black, but HTC doesn't have a single skin with red widgets and the like? Even my EVO View 4G has the "Burgundy" skin...

I like matte too.... But how do I get the selections green instead of blue.... I'm not a fan of blue..... Even if the sections was gray that would be fine too.

Regarding the grey statusbar

Hello. I've noticed almost everyone have been mentioning the gray statusbar. I was under the awareness that it is supposed to be gray/de-contrasted?
It was balck but with jb Sammy made it grey. So we have to live with it or install mod.

Black or grey does it matter so much that the phone cannot be use. Lols. It's doesn't matter at all.

S-view edge like razor blade...

Anyone filed down the edges of the SView case? It's so sharp it could cut cheese.
Mine is alright. ..

I have the white one and I noticed the same thing. Although being able to slice cheese is a very commendable feature I'd prefer something a bit softer to the touch.
Mine started to feel crazy sharp after a day of use. I took it off and will probably return it.
i have a black one and not sharp at all
Have both white & black, neither are sharp...

He didn't say slice cheese, he said "cut cheese". Very different and not so commendable.

Different colored Note 3's coming out

I'm a little surprised I didn't see this in here, if it's already been posted please delete this but here is an article from Android central about it. I guess color options are cool.

Yeah agreed, at least it's kinda cool they have more options though.

The red looks really cool, but I still like how the white looks classy. At least in my opinion.
Those colored ones are going to demands a premium on the second hand market. When I bought my white one second hand they were on average 75-100 more than the black ones.
You will be able to make any customs color combination you want once these parts hit eBay, I will be picking up the gold for my black device, looking forward to it very much.

Red with gold would have looked good too, sort of like iron man.
