Today on announce site one person want to exchange my galaxy s2 white for Black galaxy s2! What do you think about? You prefer Black version or white? And why?

There's absolutely no difference whatsoever between the two apart from the bleeding obvious
The battery cover is equal?
I would stick with white, white is sexier imo. I have a black one but I would have gone with white if I could.

I think the white version are more scratchable
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
I beg to differ, they're both equally scratchable and any white-ish scratches that come up appear more on the black one.
If you're talking about the battery cover, it would look out of place with a black cover on a white phone anyway..

When mixed...its pretty nice...haha
Black is seen less if it scratches, white gets dirty quickly .. so I have black. sorry for my english
Black, imo !
Dude, they have the same battery cover, every single thing is same on the phone except for the body colour! But, in my opinion i would say black because i think it doesn't get dirty easily. You can dust off any thing off the black one, whereas the white one gets all the dirty "black" stains very easily. Even if you by chance drop your phone somewhere outside, say on mud- the black one wont be as dirty as the white one will become.
mmmm imo, black bro
Black of course

I've always favoured white devices.
That said, I prefer the black GSII as the true black of our screen works really well.

Depends on what you like best, I hear the white ones get small hair cracks in it, but that's just hearsay, just do some research.

White is a girl's phone color. To me, when the screen is off, the white phone looks like crap...white on the bottom and top and a big black screen. You don't have that issue with a black phone.

White for me. I dont think its a girls phone. It attracts alot of attention. Only downside is the zagg protector yellows after a while :-/

I always thought the two color choices were white and carbon blue... Where are you guys finding a black one at?

Love the grippy back on the black phone. Plus I think it will show less wear and tear over time than white\chrome. Also, when trying to decide, the light bleed on the buttons on the white phone really irritated me. So I went with black (to the poster above, Carbon Blue is black. there is nothing blue about it).
To each their own, don't want to be part of a flame war. It was just what led me to the decision (which I assume is what the OP is trying to do).
Had the black Note for about 3 weeks, then traded it for a white one. I've always had black phones and just wanted to switch it up. The white phone just looks fresh to me. I've got an Elago slim case and a SGP oleophobic screen protector on, so I'm not really worried about it getting dirty.
My note is black, my case is black, my headphones are black. But in the end it's just a color (or lack thereof depending on your perception). If they only offered just white, I would have got that and been just as happy. I say get the one you think is pretty and you'll be fine

I got the white note and have the brown flip case... Looks like a journal when i take it out of my pocket. I like the looks of the white and got a glas.t so no yellowing like with the zagg.

I like the white in theory, but as others noted (ha) the contrast of the black screen against the white case is a little stark, especially when the screen is so big.
The trim cracking is also a concern, so when I exchanged my carbon blue I stayed with that color. I recently helped my mom upgrade to a new iPhone and we got her a white one - she's quite happy with that, although black or dark cases on it look quite weird. My Note with a cheapo black TPU case looks excellent.
Everybody has black phones. So I went white. It's pretty
I had the white one. To be honest it looked like a big bar of soap. I like my black one better now
Sent from my SGH-I717D using xda premium
I don't like that the white one has a glossy back battery cover. The black looks nice when screen is off and I like the texture of black's battery door.
I have a hair line split on my white note, but the translucent cases look nice on the White Phone.
When did Samsung release a black version?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
The black people are referring to is the carbon blue model, because the front face is actually black, and the back cover is basically black, with maybe a tiny tiny hint of blue in the right lighting. Easier to say black than carbon blue.

Well I'm still rocking my pebble blue but what do you guys think of the new colors?
Can you make a poll?
Could never stand white phones, they just look like kid toys to me. A phone should be either black or silver/grey. Probably gonna get that brick blue one.
I can't decide, I am not a big fan of the phone design which makes me think the blue might hide it better. But it would be somewhat nice to have a white phone.
I don't really like the blue (yet) but I hate white phones so it's gonna be the blue one..
White is a bit too Victoria Beckham for my liking went with the blue, it will spend most of its life in some sort of case I expect so not that it really matters that its blue.

Blue....Bought a White Note because it was used and could not wait to get a dark decal to skin it from decalrus.com.
White is not only feminine IMO, but is Applish, and not low key. Especially on a huge device like Note.

I think white is so clean, but I'd probably have to go with the pebble blue just because I don't want to have a "girly" color
Blue... I consider it more elegant.

Hi all.
Are there people who have the white S3 for a while and noticed if the phone is a bit scratch proof? Or gets dirty by getting in and out the pocket with maybe small scratch marks? Or maybe losing the nice white color?
I wanted to order the white S3 but the guy I spoke of Vodafone advised me to take the blue one because of some complaints with the white color.
Any negative experiences?

I am having white with no problem....
But in the first lot it arrived only white in the market here in Kuwait, I did not like the look of Blue in the pictures, now the Blue started arriving and sold very fast,
On my first physical look I really liked it, it looks entirely different than it looks in the pictures, We are already familiar with the same white models of SGS2 and Note, but the Blue is really a new shining metallic look which no other Phone has come with yet.
No stains or fading whatso ever.. reckless use still no scratches.. very satisfied.. tho i wud want a black coloured handset..

After reading the newspaper you got stains on a white phone. And after that you decide to return the phone??? Didn't you know that newspaper in will 9/10 will stain your hands and you can transfer ink to objects you touch afterwards?
I'm sorry but to change a phone for that reason sounds to be unreal. First I would try to see if the stains on the phone are removed with a bit of warm wetted cloth. Its more than likely that they will go away. What makes you think the blue wont stain? Just because you don't see it doesn't mean its not going to be dirty!
Scratches I don't worry about if they happen on the back cover as you can easily buy a new one. I believe both phone are equal when it cones to being scratched, its only a matter of what you can see, and on my white s3 for 5 weeks now I haven't seen any discolorations any dirt that could not be removed easily or anything else.
Only reason to choose one color or he other would be simple preference.

I'm using the official flip case, was using a sunglasses pouch until it was released lol.
Mines still in mint condition, the cases aren't worth the £30 they were launched at but you can get one for £15 on amazon now. I Had an issue with some peeling, hopefully a one off defect. They are not fantastic quality but screen is shielded and if you scratch the back just buy another in future. Keeping the original in the box
Had a bumper case on my s2 but didn't want to risk scratching the screen this time. Not that I did manage to scratch on my s2.
My sister has blue s3, personally I'm glad I got white, I think it looks better.

All S3 has a slightly different colour actually. Blue or white S3... You can find one Blue/White S3 that look nicer/uglier than yours actually.
Duhhhh....in terms of specs, they are absolutely, 100% identicle! So how the blue can be better than the white is beyond me....unless you've just created this thread to cause arguments....

- Similar , identical phones , just color variation , unless you're likely specific football team
If the color variation is so great that it warrants a discussion, the two phones - most likely - had different "screen modes" selected.
Settings > display > screen mode. The difference between Standard and Natural alone are relatively dramatic.
You're most welcome.

I dont think they have different hardware
Ever single phone has identical parts but the screens can differ. E.g there was big issues with blue/yellow tinted screens with the iPhone 4**** due to the glue etc used in the displays

It can be because of phone's color surrounding the screen i.e. in blue frames the colors looked better than in white frames (because your/my/somebody else's brains work that way - "correcting" the colors so you "can understand those").
Try removing the phone color or changing both to same color from video/image and then compare to see if there are differences.

I think the two S3s that you got just happens to have a different batch of screens.
One screen has a cool tone, one as a warm tone. The cool one, will tend to make whites a little blue, while the warm one will make whites q little yellow.
It's perfectly normal. In fact, both have their pros and cons.
Warm ones tend to display colours in a way pleasing to the eyes. Cold ones are not as pleasing, but are way more accurate.

Hardware built are totally the same. Just based on your preference. White looks clean, but blue looks cool...Match with different colors/types of casings will make your devices look even nicer.
So what is the best color of the Z5 Compact in your opinion? Post your pics if you want!
Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
Definitely grey!
I second the grey. But I would have loved a true black version.
I wanted a yellow one. Never saw one in the flesh though. As their exclusive to O2, the price premium over the grey wasn't worth paying for a colour.
The white one seemed cheap to me and coral is too much of a pastel colour. If it was vibrant then it might have been considered, briefly.
Does the white actually look cheap to those that have seen it? I have gray but was considering white because I liked the white on the z3c.

For some reason the white one looks plasticky. But the grey one looks rather premium. (in my opinion)

I've seen the grey and the white next to each other and I don't think the white looks cheap. Imho one could even say it looks apple-ish and as such has a premium flair.
If you like that sort of thing, go for the white one. I personally will get the grey.
I have yellow, and love it. It's not a real bright yellow, and the frosted glass over the phone just makes it look even smoother.
Black.

I like my white Z5c. I've also owned the Z1c and Z3c (both in white). I was mostly sold once I had it in my hand. It does have a pearlescent sheen on it...almost like a car but less glossy. I also liked the weight of it in hand. The Z3c almost felt "too light". The Z5c is closer to the weight of the Z1c which makes it feel "solid" in hand.
I do like that it doesn't really look like any other phone on the market right now so it definitely stands out a bit.
I love my yellow phone. So colorful. Unlike the other poster I think it is a bright yellow.
