I would like to ask the owners of white SXS if nano coating is really effective against dirt or stains as it is claimed in many reviews? I have just seen pen writing on back cover. But does it work against any other dirt? And is white cover stil white? Doesnt it start to turn a bit yellow? Thanks
Its white like first day and yes its repeling the dirt, dust, fingerprints and else.

It is working perfectly. Also, I experienced the felt-pen test thanks to my 4-years-old son. It returned perfect.
I had a blue strip (pen) on the back and some blue finger prints on the back(also from the pen), I tried to rub them off but nothing happen..they were at the same spot, but the next day I woke up and I checked the back of my White SXS the finger prints and the strip were gone.. and my back was like new ! so yes, it works.

Hey,
I was watching the videos and the hands-on pictures of galaxy s3 and i noticed that there's an ugly gap between the screen and the bezel and its really bothering me, especially on the white version of the phone. Can anyone tell me why is it that way? I tried searching for the answer but couldn't find any so i decided to ask it here.
Thanks for the replies in advance.
I thing every phone has this black gap
not as much as s3
I too noticed the gap and it is much more visible in white sgs3 than blue. lets see what the s3 users say
It's there, but I don't even notice unless I focus on it. The screen is way to good to focus on a small black gap.

I didn't realize it was there until reading this post ;-) Non-issue IMO.
BTW I have the white SGIII.

you know i was deciding to change my mind and wait for pebble blue color bcoz i thought that gap would be an issue. Thanks for clarifying.
Literally didn't notice it until you pointed it out. I have the white and its fine. Probably less noticeable on the blue.

but its so visible lol howcome you didnt notice that 0_o
Have you held a S III in your own hands yet? Videos/photos don't show the real beauty of the phone. Don't be so quick to judge

I noticed the gaps on my first S3, i went for a replacement this morning because of very obvious spots on my display under black background. Suprisingly, the new unit does not have gaps between the bezel and screen. It fits nicely.
I hade this gap too, should i return it ? I have a smaller One side of the bigger that are under the home button
I had this gap on my White S3, its like screen was coming off and i can see small amount of glu coming out of it.
i went back to shop and exchange with new one which is fine no issues now.
I too never noticed the gap until this thread...not an issue IMO (I have a white S3)
Sorry to revive this thread but I also have this under my home button (though not nearly as bad as mani79 had). I just see a small "ridge" between the screen and plastic bezel.
The display model at my local AT&T store has it as well.
in having a look at my white s3, i dont have any issues whatso ever, not even a small amount of lifting or seperation. Must just be luck of the draw
Notice the ridge between the chrome and glass in this stock photo? That's what I'm talking about. That little ridge.
just check, mine looks ok
I have the pebble blue version and a small gap on the bottom - it isnt noticeable though but I will keep an eye on it as I wont be happy if it starts filling up with dust and becomes unsightly.
This phone has a gap similar but slightly worse than mine. Notice the gap on the right and bottom of the screen.
K so I bought my 1st phone from expansys and had bad overheating issues. They were very nice in exchanging it for me. But now I noticed on by replacement phone there are like 6-8 spider cracks around the one side of the rear speaker. You can tell the back plate cracked from factory speaker install. Did anyone notice this on their phone? I emailed expansys again. Do u think they'd give me a hard time on getting another replacement? I hate to see the back case crack worse then it already is.

can you post a picture of the phone?
On top of that add some other issues like black screen ink marks and tell them backcover makes a sound when u click on it. That should be enough to get a refund or replacement

I do have those black ink marks, im not really worried about it at the moment. What I worry is will it worse and be visible on the months/weeks to come?
this is the best attempt i could make....i can't tell if its just the glaze that is cracked or what...but come on you pay 700 for a phone it shouldn't be like that....

I dropped my Note 2 right on the face and broke the glass. The top right corner looks like a spider web with a few cracks stretching to the bottom. The display still works though . I plan to get a new glass and replace it myself. I've found quite a bit of info on how to do it.
My only question is this. When I last made a call with it the screen wouldn't come back on when I pulled it away from my face. I'm hoping it's just because of the cracks that run right across the 2 sensors at the top. Do you think it could be that or do you think maybe one of the sensors broke when it fell.
I sure don't want to have to replace the whole lcd unit. That's about $250 while the glass is about $20.

Hey thanks Luke. It's good to see you again. I'm actually using my Charge again for calls and texts. I find I've gotten really spoiled by my Note. The old phone feels clunky and slow.
Thanks for the good info. I'll definitely look for that when I take the busted screen off. It'll take a few days to get the parts. Wish me luck. I think I'm gonna need it. It looks like a hard job.
Sent from my SCH-I605 with Tweaked VZW Remix using Tapatalk 2
Another question. I'd like to be able to make the display stay on when I'm holding it up to my ear. Does anyone know a way to do that? I'd really like to use my Note even though the screen is broken. I don't like my Charge any more because it's too small.

Open the phone to the dialer. Hit the menu touch button then call settings. Un check auto off during call. The setting even says turn off proximity sensor.

Thanks. I can't believe I never noticed that. Now I can use it til I can fix the screen. Just waiting for parts.

small crack with resolution prob.
I have a small crack in upper right of screen & now my sharp color is gone. It is now very dull almost like I used a photo app & added an overlay to it. Need some advice
Well I got my parts and got the tools I needed to fix my screen. The problem was I got the wrong type plastic razor blades. I got scraper blades instead. I tried it anyway and ended ripping my LCD screen. Now it's costed an extra $ 200+ for a LCD Digitizer assembly. Hopefully the next day delivery will still work even though yesterday was a holiday and the post offices were closed.
Anyway, what I'm leading up to is don't try this if everything isn't kosher. It's a tricky job.
Update: I found out they won't even ship it til Monday. I guess I don't get it back this weekend. I really don't like my old Charge after using my Note all these months.
I've had my S4 for about 2 weeks and just started to notice it has what looks like a small 'smudge' UNDER the glass. It kind of looks like a finger smudge on top of the glass, I actually tried the clean for about 15 minutes before I realized it was under the glass. I can't see it when the screen is on, only when it's off and I hold it a certain angles. It's not a big enough deal for me to return it, but if it's a sign of worse things to come, maybe I should? Also, don't know if it's related, but I can also tell my screen isn't exactly flat. This also can only be seen at certain angles, looks fine when using the phone. Should I worry about it or what do you think?
Just return it for another unit, unless you want to be stuck with this flaw for another two years or so, and from the looks of it seems to be bothering you, so why not just return it and have them issue you another device.
Duh!

Sell it to someone who won't notice. Then get the dev edition. Or just replace it

Anybody with a white Z2 noticed that the white plastic edges around the seems are no longer white or less white compared to the time it was brand new out of the box?
Personally the seems on my Z2 look a little grayish. :/
Is there any plastic?? I thought it is a painted aluminium...

The seems(edges) are colored plastic. :/ Those are losing color. Aluminium is in the middle.
Although I don't think it is plastic, in black version it is clearly painted aluminum...which will rub away in time I suppose. But - let the owners of white items speak.

It's an aluminium frame with plastic injection, so they have the metal surround and a metal chassis and then to hold it all together, they use an injection mould for the rest of it.
Anybody going to actually answer the OP question?
I'm using a white Z2 and totally notice a colour change. I suspect it's due to general use and the fact that I mostly wear denim jeans.
Such are the woes of a white coloured device.

Seems to be from the general use here, washed it twice too. I do not see any colors residue on it, although I wear denims too but it might be issue with only some brands of jeans?
P.S. You can see here, that's the color my Z2 has now. :/

Note that I'm not talking of the staining issue, I don't have that. I'm talking about the color of the plastic wearing off. You can see it in the above video that the white Z2 has grayish edges and it has been used a little.
These have pure white edges(as it comes out of the box) :

Are you going to replace a new one？
It is out of warranty.
My white Z2 doesn't lose colour. It is white like in the first day of use and I have it for 1 week. I first was scared about this, but no. It doesn't lose the colour. I also use blue jeans. Maybe after some longer time it will lose colour.

Mine doesnt lose color, but it began staining after few weeks in blue jeans, luckily a bath did the trick, good as new now.
It is too early to tell, I only had it for 5 days, I will report back if I see any thing weird.
All I ever see in the Z2 threads are complaints :S is this phone really that messed up?
Really wanted this phone but I may go for the S5 since there are SO many issues :/ ffs
Well, seems like it was just indoor issue. Went out, and it still shines white and bright! :laugh:

I have a black one and have none or the issues that people complain about, overheating lag or defects. Out of the probably hundreds of thousands of people there's only a handful of complaints here so that's not something you should be scared of, if anything there's always warranty.

Yes after using it for few days I recognized that the plastic part actually picked up some colors from my jeans, etc.
So I washed it with soap and it looked new again until I dropped it hard in parking lot, trying to get out of my car without realizing I placed my z2 on my lap while I was driving.
It has some scratches and chips on the side but it still looks beautiful and I am not going to ruin it by using covers!
