Go for blue if you can get it.
Asking people what colour is best is like asking if they prefer apples or oranges. It's a personal preference. Only you will know what you prefer once you have seen both.
Sorry to be a downer but I really don't think people's answers here will help you.
There is already a thread like this. Please use the search button before you post it.
Blue is sweet when combined with touchwiz keypad. The new touchwiz has this blue color dominant which fits well with the blue phone.
White is for weenies.
I prefer white, waiting for a red hard back cover to give it some added colour.
I haven't seen the blue one, but I really like the white version I have.
Blue! That metallic color just looks so nice... lol
saw the blue one, looks quite good but it's too shiny - i could clearly see scratches in the light reflecting off the back. reminded me of my SGS1 and it's scratched black back.
blue looks very cheap. white is the better of two poor options
You're a fellow Leeds fan. White + your avatar as wallpaper is the way to go.

White as blue looked nothing special .

Marble White !!!

Blue is more fun but i think it scratches easily.

White definitely stands out the most but the pearl blue just looks nicer in my opinion and its what I choose I have always thought of white for women blue for men I guess that's a bit sexist but its just my opinion
Get the titanium grey... That is if your getting the LTE version.
Considering i have had 2 of the SIII in both colors i would say white is more better.

Good find, lets hope its true
Will not be amused if this is available a week after I get the blue one.
come on guys, this is just a site that does 3d animations for phones. Did you really think that samsung would not have announced a black version?

Neither will I However I think the listing could well be a mistake colour-wise. When I was looking at pre-orders, there were a couple of places that had white or black listed as colour options, but later corrected to white or blue. I think the blue should be dark enough in real life to pass as nearly black anyway.

Looks like the blue version to me.
Looks blue to me too
looks like blues clues to me i dont know about black..you know that fruit company might sue again
Also they don't even list the blue, which is a bit strange.

According to Eldar Murtazin, later it will be available in black too.

Probably the crappy US Carrier versions.
Eldar Murtazin told me on twitter that the black version will be available for Christmas. Well, i want it so much, but i'm not going to wait :|
I have always had a black phone so ive decided this time it's gonan be different,i want the marble white SGS3 but the blue one looks really nice as well i just cant make up my mind.
Seems immeasurably stupid not to include a black version at launch. It harks back to the days of kids running around with bright red Nokia Xpress-on covers and potentially alienates a large portion of the market who want a sleek, back, professional looking phone - not a teenager's fashion accessory.
The inclusion of things like S-Voice are the kinds of things that look great in a shop but you end up never using in practice. For the same reason it boggles the mind why Samsung didn't give the option of a black version; part of the reason AMOLED screens look so impressive is the near seamless transition between black on-screen and a black bezel, made possible by AMOLED's superior contrast.
I had a very reaction when i saw the white and blue versions at the presentation. I hate white phones and thought the blue looked horribly cheap. Ive now seen a blue one in the flesh and its nothing like as bad as i feared. Its actually quite smart looking.
Many of the images of it make it look a lot lighter than it actually is. The front looks black in most lights an the pattern on the back is almost like metal.
I would still prefer a black phone though.
its the blue one!
Anyone actually HAVE the SSG3 in Blue in their hands?? Some photos make it look blue, while many other photos look more of a Purple. I'm curious for a better description of the actual color. Please and thanks.
After handling one of each today at work (a white one and a blue one), I'd probably say that the blue one looks... charcoal than anything else. Really dark grey with a tinge of blue. It DOES look nice though. Nice enough for me to wait for it over getting instant tech gratification from a white one!

Grey? Wasn't expecting that. It's really hard to tell, so many pictures all look different. I kind of reminds me of the blue and purple of Adam West's Bat Cowl in the old 60s tv show lol.. but that's in photos, which is why I'd like to hear from those who have actually seen it.

It surprised me a bit too, I was expecting a definite blue hue! The "pebble look" is really quite nice though. I'm glad I took the time at lunch time to go and have a look in person when the Samsung reps turned up. It made me realise that I would be more than happy waiting for that one over the white one. I'm certainly not bashing the white one though. Its nowhere near as cheap looking as I'd thought it would be. I just prefer black (or charcoaly blue-grey!).

So i'm debating between white and grey; in the store I tend to prefer the white due to contrast the white border makes with the display (on the surface it seems to make the display stand out) but i prefer the grey because it makes the buttons (at bottom) more visible and seems more stealthy. I'm curious if folks who purchased the grey one end up wishing for the white and conversely those who purchased the white if you end up wishing for the grey and why ?
(only other thing I could think that might be material is if the white creates more flare for the camera)
my mind had been made up for months that I was going to get the White...once I spent real time in the store and really thought about it, Grey won out. I don't regret it at all. it's just more my style in the end...more understated.
Got the white since I thought the gray just didn't look right on the phone so no I do not wish I had gotten the gray over the white and also I haven't noticed any problems with the camera.
I got the white and now I'm wishing I got the grey instead. The white just feels a little too girly for me. Plus, the grey would have gone well with the color of the new car.
I really wanted the white one and when I finally went to get my phone at the Verizon store they only had grey left. Me being too impatient got it anyway and very happy I did lol.

Same thing for me, only all they had was white. So white it is!(really wanted grey, but I too am an impatient sort)
I had a white s3. I wanted a white phone,but it got old really quickly. I have the gray n2, and must say, looks much nicer and more stylish than the white. Just my opinion though.

I got the grey. Im colorblind anyways so it wouldnt matter if the phone was lime green.

I originally wanted white, but I'm glad I went with gray. Even though it's Samsung's famous shoddy plastic it gives a not-so-cheap looking, brushed metal appearance, where as white plastic looks like... white plastic. Plus with the Glacier flavor Otterbox, it contrasts well.

I'm digging the white. I dont like the grey because the faux metal look makes it feel like a cheap immitation of something which is out of place on this bamf. Color is a minor point though since I jave a case that covers 90% of the samsung plastic. Verizon home button bothers me less in white.

Sounds like most people are happy with whatever colour they pick and don't wish for the other colour after the fact. Btw if I buy one i would use it without a case; can't stand cases.
Hi guys, I really like the z2 in purple. But does anyone think this colour is aimed more for females?.
32 male.
Purple is statistically the most popular colour within males. Get the purple one.
Purple one looks more sparkly on the back due to its metalic finish
I like my Black Z2 im a metalic black, suits and ties kinda guy who drives a forein car to a forein pub to drink a forein beer but thats just taste, and that last 2 lines are lies
Purple= most attention
Black= meh
White= attention
Metalic sparkle visibility
Purple= metalic sparkle easier to see
Black = only in daylight
White = can be seen from time to time but looks just awesome in white

Not really, i saw a guy buy a purple one once and i just stared at him. not because its a feminine colour but because its an unusual one. Some cultures might not agree in which case then you're making a statement. Sticking out.
More flash, attracts attention, can you carry it off. how do you look with it taking a call.
attracting attention is all well and good so long as you got the latest & greatest. How long you want to hold onto the unit. Do you still want that attention after two years assuming you hold on to the device that long or longer.
White is in the same boat but to a less extent as its more common than purple. White hides fingerprints better.
Black is the most discrete and fingerprint magnet.
In the end a case will hide whatever colour but if you are thinking of a unique colour chances are you don't want a case to begin with.
Thanks for your feedback guys. All I can say if I get the purple one I will receive banter from my mates.
See, it all depends if you insist on carrying it naked. Feels good but then its the same all the time. You could add something like this which only works with black & purple.
If not, then black with any colour case of your choosing means more options. The more important thing is the bezel colour and fortunately sony has always gone with black bezels, these are the easiest to mix with case colour. Think lumias. White bezels restrict that choice somewhat.
before you decide check out all types of cases as this might influence which colour you go for.
Beware of staining. Purple probably wouldn't be too bad but I bought a white one originally and returned it within 2 days because it was stained from being in my pocket. I believe purple may slightly discolor also but not as bad.

If you want purple, buy purple, don't choose something else because your mates are immature!
I bought purple and love it, it's not the shocking colour in the press shots, it's actually more subtle.
Went for white in the end guys! Lol. Cheers
I've got a purple one, I've had one person tease me for the color be feminine. The response was "Are you trying to pick me up?", "No.", " Then why do you care?"

I think white looks the best with this design (especially from the front angles, striking) but the back is a little too noticeable.
Put it this way there are times and places where i want that attention and others where i do not.
Purple is striking because of the colour (unusual) but does not compliment the design as well as white.
I have purple, and a friend of mine has black. I'm more than happy with my choice, after comparing the two
Hy. Yesturday i went to see live note 7 blue coral. Samsung has choose very interesting combinations of colours that change acording to light and ungles. Blue coral is not the same in reality like in photos and youtube. Many people, specialy man in my country hate it at first view. What you think after seiing live the colors. I like it and i think they are very original and stylish.

I was debating between blue or black and at the end black won just because of how crazy is the blue color. I din't have a chance to see a demo unit (available only on SEP16 where I live and I will have the phone on SEP2) but looking Youtube, reviews it look white blue or rich blue depending on the lighting. I like the rich blue but white blue with low light conditions was not for me, the trim also could be sliver or maybe even black with a little bit darker blue phone. So this time i say no to blue coral
It looks really good in real life but I am on doubt if it's not feminine especially with that golden border. If it has silver border I would say it's the best color even that Onyx Black is very sleek and beautiful - just not so special. So I am on doubt what color to choose but definitely not the silver one (I don't like shining silver phones at all)...
I like it but went with black

I found it underwhelming in real life when I played around with a demo unit. It looked far better on film in various Youtube videos.
The biggest reason to get it is because it says "look at my new phone" as there's no other phone (currently) on the market like it. Bit it's kind of like the massive demand for the gold iPhone when it first came out. Everyone wanted the color for the previous reason. Six months from now Blue Corral won't be special anymore and then it'll just be a blueish phone with pinkish trim. I use my phone for business and the only color that doesn't scream "look at me" was black.
Meh. I wasn't impressed. It looked a bit too feminine for my tastes, but if that's your thing then more power to you. I love that the metal rim on the onyx version is actually black now. It makes the phone look sleek and simple. Plus, I also use my phone for business so the black was the best (read: only) option. Not that I'm complaining, it's sexy af in black.
It's Dope ...
Usually have black devices. But got the bronze 10.1 tab on impulse: it still looks good. The iPhones that mimicked it have a pallid 9ct gold effect that doesn't look so good. So I'm going for the blue this time, reckoning that Sammy has got it right this time too. If it's too bright, it can be toned down with a black case, but I suspect the Note 7 will be classy enough to carry the colour...
I had mine outside in the direct sunlight today for the first time (got it last night) and the metal frame looks pink...I knew the blue was feminine-ish, but the pink tint on the frame DEFINITELY tops off the feminine look IMO.
Anyone wanna trade their black one for a blue one? LOL.

I first ordered titinium silver as I've always liked the color since the s7 came out but did not want the s7. My note 2, 3, 4 were all black (note 2 was really dark grey) so for sure I didn't want black. Just so I don't dismiss the blue completely, I still went to a Tmobile store to check out the blue. There was a lot of light in the store and made the blue look baby blue and I did not like it. So I told myself, blue was not for me and left. I went home and watched several more unpacked reviews and the ones showing the blue made the phone look really good depending on the lighting, and wasn't always baby blue. So after several more videos I watched of the blue, I decided to also order it. Figure if I have more time with it I'll have a better non rushed judgement on it.
Once I received both phones, I opened the blue first and fell in love with it right away. The blue inside my office is nice. I like how it switches to different hue's of blue. Now the rose gold trim does put me off a little but in my clear case it doesn't stand out as much. But it's not ugly either, just felt too feminine.
A day later I opened the titanium one. I still like the titanium, BUT compared to the blue, I now found it boring. To be fair, I gave it a few more days and played with both phones but blue being my daily. In most places I go, unless I'm outside, the blue stays pretty dark or at least not baby blue. Unless I'm in direct sunlight. Sometimes it looks bluish dark grey (which I love). I just love the different variation of blue it produces (besides baby blue obviously). The titanium does get slightly darker but it always looked bright silver in most scenarios and does reflect more light. So in the end, chose the blue.
So my thoughts....I think had I not had a chance to play with it for at least a few days in my own environment, I wouldn't have chosen it. If you are considering the blue don't judge it based on pictures, or seeing it for a few minutes, or even what others think of the color. Your best bet if you are undecided is to take it home and try it out for a few days yourself. That goes for any of the colors, not just blue.
